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.

Iron Man- Based on the popular Marvel Comics series and the upcoming film. Action-Adventure

My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): Iron Man is literally the only game coming out for the PSP this month. So……yeah. It will either be a decent rental and time killer or it will be garbage. That is all.

A company known as Plato Learning which is dedicated in making games related to Education and making Interactive games to provide the Kid Gamers with things which Parents would never mind at all.

“Plato Learning is thrilled to be the first educational technology provider in North America to offer our educational software on such a hugely popular handheld entertainment system,” said Plato CEO Mike Morache.

We don’t know yet how many Kidz are actually gonna leave games like Burnout and play this, but we’re sure that 9 out of 10 kids will still stick to Mature Rated games

God of War is an excellent series, and should make a nice translation into the world of handheld gaming. The wait is over for Final Fantasy fans as well, because finally the prequel they have longed for is arriving. Sports fans should also take note, as both MLB titles will surely be enjoyable, as will Pro Evolution Soccer.

Action lovers should scope out Patapon or Blokus. Those who love puzzle games have decent offerings in both Chessmaster and Championship Cards. Racing enthusiasts also get two nice additions to the library. Lets hope the software drought is over.

My 2 Cents (or whatever they’re worth): Wow, it is certainly a waste land out there for PSP games in December. Atari games like Asteroids are always fun, but who hasn’t played these already? Warriors could be a decent strategy title, probably worthy of a rental. I really want to see more solid software for the PSP overall.

Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command- Strategy game set in the Warhammer 40k universe. Strategy

My 2 cents (or whatever they’re worth): The PSP needs more games, period. Silent Hill looks cool, especially if you’re a fan of the series. Pursuit Force looks like it could be pretty cool as a multiplayer title, it might be the wild card this month. The SOCOM series has been pretty solid, squad based shooters can be quite fun. Warhammer as a strategy game might work well, at least worthy of checking out. I don’t want to rant about licensed games, but they typically suck. I expect this from both Beowulf (the movie looks great though) and The Simpsons. The rest are probably safe rentals.

Take Two have decided it is time to sue Jack Thompson for his recent efforts to try and ban Manhunt 2 and GTA IV. In 3 days time (Monday) Jack puts his claim in to ban those games, as mentioned in a previous news post. This has prompted Take Two to launch a pre-emptive attack by petitioning to the ‘United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida’ they seek to stop the game being declared a ‘public nuisance’ under Florida law. Here is a little from the claim:

All i can say is he had it coming to him, he hasn’t even seen the game yet and he is trying to block Manhunt 2 from coming out. Serves him right, i hope they get Jack Thompson declared a ‘public nuisance’ maybe then Take Two will get a break for a while. You may remember the trouble with Canis Canem Edit (Bully) coming out in October 2006, Jack’s claim to ban the game was rejected that just goes to show that his claims are not substantiated, there isn’t even a gun in that game and it was rated a 15 (Teen). Take Two have also said they wish to claim their attorney fees and other costs from Jack, since they have been forced into action by him. Hopefully this is the last we hear from Jack Thompson regarding the matter, although i doubt it.
