God of war 3
This is the fifth God of War title, the third in the main cannon, and it is clear sony Santa Monica want to end this story arc with a bang, delivering one hell of an epic action game experience while at the same time honing gameplay that will be hugely familiar to fans of past titles. Of course, this is a Ps3, a system seller, and as such everything has been taken a lot further from the PS2 and the PSP versions that we enjoyed hugely before. Now, however, you get the feeling that the designers have held nothing back for this final hooray, Kratos' last stab at those pesky gods.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2
Gameplay
The gameplay retains many of the elements from the previous game. The game will feature 23 interactive and destructible stages. Each character can also gain new combos and jutsu by activating the Awakening Mode. As the story progresses, players will unlock new Jutsu and Ultimate Jutsu for certain characters.
Support characters will be returning and a new feature, named Drive Gauge is introduced in the game. Depending on the Drive Gauge, players will be able to unleash combination attack with the support characters. The jutsu clashes from the prequel also makes their return.
Free roaming also makes a return. The game will feature a 1:1 recreation of the Hidden Leaf Village. In addition to the Leaf Village, players will be able to roam outside the village, ranging from forests to deserts, and also the Hidden Sand Village. Boss battles will be returning, with quick-time events and cutscenes.
Players can access multiple online features; quick matches have opponents chosen at random, ranked matches with leader boards, match customization, as well as the availability to host matches.

Tekken 6
With its beefy cast, impressive Scenario Campaign mode, and expansive customisation options, Tekken 6 is the new heavyweight in the fighting game arena
Despite the dozens (and sometimes hundreds) of moves available per pugilist, intricate juggle combos, complex counters, and esoteric gameplay quirks that have evolved through five prequels, Tekken 6 is an altogether welcoming fighting game. For veterans, the game offers the most comprehensive roster in the history of the series, a new way to extend damaging combos, and enough change to--whilst not exactly feeling brand new--make it feel exciting to play Tekken again. For newcomers, the game's comprehensive training modes and expansive single-player beat-'em-up campaign serve as an enticing gateway into the world of the King of Iron Fist Tournament. For everyone else, Tekken 6 features the same outstanding qualities that have made the series a fighting favorite on consoles: deep yet accessible mechanics, as well as excellent extra features not seen in arcades. Whether you're a complete stranger to the series, an occasional masher, or someone who can pull off 10-hit combos without dislocating a finger, the superb Tekken 6 has plenty to offer you.
