The World Ends With You looks truly incredible, and I really think this one is going to become an unsung classic in the RPG genre (I’m looking at you Legend of Legaia and Alundra).

The sequel of Rainbow Six: Vegas is finally here but a few weeks late for the PC platform. The orignal Rainbow Six: Vegas was a surprise hit and Ubisoft then quickly came out with its sequel. The console version was launched last month and has already sold 2 million copies worldwide. The old game followed a story of Las Vegas being captured by terrorists and this one follows on similar lines.

Did you like this post?The Worst Violent games of all times
Here are the most violent games of all time!
5. Custer’s Revenge
Platform – Atari 2600
This game is a very unique one. It is one of the oldest game to give on-screen nudity a try. This game uses rape as its gameplay. Quite Violent I will say! Parents should make sure their children stay away from these kinds of games.
4. Night Trap
Platform – PC/Mac/3DO/DS
Night Trap caused controversy in US and Australia primarily. It’s a horror movie copy – a house, girls clad in revealing dress and a group of killers that only you can defeat. Surprisingly the PC and 3DO version did not have any such controversy

3. Carmageddon
Platform - PC
In this racing game you had two ways to win a race. Just reach the finish line or be the first one to kill all the pedestrians on the street. The OFLC passed this game as a “MA15+” rating still the highest for any game!
2. Third Kill
Platform – PS1
It’s totally different when a Government bans a game and when a publisher bans a game. That was the fate of this four player playstation 1 game which was banned by EA saying that this game is “senselessly violent”.
1. Manhunt
Platform – PC
The manufacture of GTA series, Rockstar produced this game which shows the dark side of them. This game was initially passed by OFLC in October 2003 but later on due to government pressure it was refused classification in September 2004
Did you like this post?Guitar Hero has made its mark on every Gaming System. Now its time to conquer the handhelds. Activision has officially announced ‘Guitar Hero On Tour’ for the DS.
The way to play this game would be an additional accessory which goes into the GBA Port and which acts like the 4 Buttons on the normal version of Guitar Hero.
Check out this Video to know exactly how you’ll be able to game :
From the Video it seems the DS is held sideways with the hand gripping around the Guitar attachment and also hold down the fret buttons. Other hand would be used to strum using stylus.
Well the idea seems pretty neat….will it work practically or not it still to be known…check back later for Links to Reviews about this game….

My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): Wow, there are a LOT of games coming out this month for the DS. The sad part of this is that half are kiddie fair, and the another quarter of them are just looking bad. This month is all about two games. Final Fantasy and Ninja Gaiden. Both series are great in their own ways, and these handheld editions will be perfect practice for their upcoming console entries on the 360 and PS3. These “animal care” games are just too many.

Nanostray 2- Sequel to the popular shooter. Action
Petz Wild Animals: Tigerz- Take care of tigers as well as train them for the circus. Simulation
My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): Wow, this month DS owners will be taking care of a lot of animals! Seriously though, that stuff is alright for younger audiences, but do we really need eighteen animal care games every month? This months good games look to be Bubble Bobble, mostly because its returning to the style of gaming that made it famous: the Platformer. Nanostray was a good shooter, so the sequel should be worth a look. Of course there is also Ace Attorney, which every smart DS owner should pick up. This month’s really interesting title looks to be Insecticide. With it’s film noir-ish feel, along with it’s cool insect characters, it could be an interesting game. It’s like a Bug’s Life for Sin City fans (well, maybe not that hardcore).

January TBA:
Mega Brain Boost- Use your brain in a variety of mini-games designed to make your brain work hard, this collects both Beta Wave and Gamma Wave titles. Puzzle
My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): While not a great month for DS titles, there are a few “diamonds in the rough”. Advance Wars is an excellent strategy series, and will remain so in this installment. If you want to get addicted to a game, try Advance Wars out, you won’t be able to remove that DS from your sweaty mitts. Bomberman is another addictive title, and if you have friends to link up to, it gets even better. Mega Brain Boost will be fun for those who like similar brain teasing games, but be warned if you own either or both Brain Boost: Gamma Wave or Brain Boost: Beat Wave. This is simply a collection of those titles, so don’t bother as its not technically a new game. The rest of the titles just bore me. Miami Nights? Come on, people.

Indianapolis 500 Legends- Play as your favorite Indy drivers in this racing game. Racing
My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): This month is pretty bare for DS owners. There are few stand out title, unless you love puzzle games. Left Brain Right Brain and Luxor might provide those puzzle game fans with something to tide them over, but there are already enough puzzle games available for the DS that are more than likely better choices. So this month I urge you to get to your local game shop and browse for some older titles you may have never had the chance to play. Often times games can be overlooked, and those bargain bins aren’t all crap.

Also be sure to check out Contra 4, Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, and Dragon Quest Monsters. If you don’t have a Wii, pick up Geometry Wars, and Raving Rabbids 2. If you do have a Wii however, pick up those two for that instead. One wild card in the bunch is Nintendo Magic. It looks like it could be a very unique, original title. The rest is really nothing to write home about, save your cash for next month.
