Naruto fights against Naruto in a Naruto-filled Naruto action Naruto game. Spoiler Alert: Naruto is in this game.

I had a bit of fun playing Naruto Shippuden: Naruto vs. Sasuke. I'd call it an all-around action game. There's a lot of platforming, some fighting, a few hidden passageways, ninja stars and kunais, over-the-top special attacks, and boss fights. I don't know if action games get more “action-y” than that.

Another quality addition to the popular series that sticks closely to its tried-and-true formula.

This year has been a big one for God of War fans, with the release of the highly anticipated third edition of the series, God of War III, and now a brand new adventure, Ghost of Sparta. The new title features a great story that offers some rare insight into Kratos' background, driving forward a fast-paced quality adventure that the series is known for. Though the title is a bit short and doesn't expand upon the usual God of War formula, die-hard fans will undoubtedly be thrilled by the familiar experience.

So much action even Michael Bay feels overwhelmed.

I honestly didn’t see how Treyarch could have kept their promise that the next Call of Duty game, Black Ops, would have more action than the previous two Modern Warfare games. After all, people can only see so many nukes go off before it starts to seem mundane; however, I think even Michael Bay would have to take a breather while playing this game. In spite of all Activision’s recent troubles, Blacks Ops ensures that Call of Duty will continue to be a video game goliath, stomping through gamers’ hearts and minds.

This roguelike is still punishingly tough, but it's the absolute best way to try out the genre.

Nippon Ichi Software is known for their unique, markedly Japanese titles that are big on humor and extremely unique in terms of gameplay. Z.H.P.: Unlosing Ranger vs. Darkdeath Evilman is no exception to this rule, as the game delivers some well-written dialog, and unique roguelike gameplay that slightly alters the basic concepts of the sub-genre. Though the game is a small diversion from standard Mystery Dungeon gameplay, it's likely that most gamers won't connect with the title due to its high difficulty level and unforgiving design.

While it isn't the Gothic series we know and love, it is still an entertaining story.

The Gothic trilogy was one of the few distinct fantasy RPG’s to appear in the first decade of this new millennium. While the gameplay was definitely buggy - I remember losing all save files twenty hours into Gothic II - each game immersed you into a cleverly expanding world with a heavy Germanic mythology influence. This series was not cartoony or happy, it was rough and unforgiving. Arcania is the fourth game in the Gothic series, developed by a new team, Spellbound, and while it tries to carry on the traditions and story of the Gothic series, while also refreshing it for a new group of players on the console, it ultimately fails to deliver the necessary experience to attract more followers.
