Inspired from a movie of the same name minus the word 'Underworld' (although, 'Underworld' too was a Hollywood film about vampires which starred 'Kate Beckinsale') which had the Brad Pitt's present better-half playing the lead, this game vouchsafes the player to delve into the deep dark world of the 'Lara Croft, the Tomb Raider'.

Like the film too, 'Tomb Raider Underworld' game too has added a whole new chapter to the gaming world, but with a difference. Yes, strictly meant for players dying to experience the lethal combination of thrill and action in one single attempt, 'Tomb Raider Underworld' surpasses every set of expectations of its players with ease. Like the name suggests, this time the backdrop of the game is bit more dark and more realistic. However, the background locations and graphics used are A-grade. The level of graphic violence too seems quite surrealistic, which definitely is a better sign for the gaming industry.

Acts like acrobatic manoeuvres, racing on bike through the outdoor locales like temples, snowy temples and underwater diving are something that beside flummoxing players, emerges as high points of this stunning game. Even the challenges are new and so are the situations that keeps players on the edge of their seat. Lara as a suave gaming character excels in every department, whether it is about exuding sexiness or portraying her impressive athletic ability in overcoming the challenges. Unsteady cam effect with a 'film' like photography is simply amazing and keeps players riveted throughout their outing in the centre as 'Lara'. A marked improvement from its predecessor version, 'Tomb Raider Underworld' comes out as a complete action game that has the much-needed panache.

Getting rid of violent video games is easy. For this purpose, people need to take a couple of steps which would prevent them from playing such negative video games.

It is impossible that people cannot live without playing video games. Video games have become the most important means of entertainment with which people can get access within the comfort of their homes. Recently, people have started complaining about the disadvantages of video games. These disadvantages focus at the worst effects of violent or negative video games.

All kinds of entertainment means have got their own advantages as well as disadvantages. People can control these disadvantages by taking up a couple of preventive measures. Video games companies prepare video games with respect to specific people belonging to certain age groups. Games which are made for kids should always be played by them. Kids should not try to play adult violent video games.
In the market, people would find different kinds of video games. They should always focus to buy which are non-violent. It has been seen that many kids and adults become the victims of violent video games. Many hospitals and crime branches have reported that many youngsters have been found committing crime after they have been inspired by negative video games. It is the most widely known disadvantage of negative video games. Such games should be curbed down immediately.

These days, there are many online video gaming websites which have violent games in store and these mostly attract kids or youngsters. Parents should not allow their kids to play games on such websites. There are many sites which make gentle and knowledgeable video games. Children should be encouraged to play such games as these games develop their inner talents.

There are many video games websites which offer games news online or free guidance on how to play games online. Such sites should be given preference as other than selling games, these sites also provide free guidance. A video game which has got violent contents in it, would entice players to follow the roles of the negative characters and in real life, players adopt such negative roles leading to crimes as well as violent activities.

Playing a good video game is like reading a good book which would give good knowledge to readers. On the other hand, playing a bad video game is just like reading a negative book which would impart negative impact on the readers. Thus, violent video games should be always curbed down and gentle video games should be given preference.

There have been many games which have set a new definition of excellence in gaming in lots of genres all over the world. Most of these games have immortalised their characters like 'Banjo' who is still remembered fondly.

The 'Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts' is quite an interesting peek into the past where games had characters jumping over obstacles and climbing ladders in order to collect shiny objects.

The Nuts & Bolts review gives an idea about the efforts that have been done to create a game which succeeds in bringing the gamer back to the age of aforesaid games, while also including many advanced technologies and many new things to do.

The story is not a discouraging factor at all. The main character 'Banjo' embarks on a journey passing through many fantastic worlds to 'Spiral mountain' on vehicles that he creates along the way. There is also a villain who goes by the name of 'Grunty' and does every feasible misdeed aimed to stop 'Banjo' from reaching his goal.

The vehicle creator in this game is one of the most interesting features. The gamer being able to put together everything starting from a quaint hovercraft to a soaring aeroplane. The display is also quite colourful with lots of detail in terms of the background and the characters themselves.

One common requirement for the gamer would be creativity. This statement is perhaps a major focus of almost all the Nuts & Bolts reviews that have been written. The levels in this game can be won using many different ways depending on the creativity of the user. Therefore, this game is not only fun to play, but is also a 'brain enhancer'. It makes the gamer use his brains (however, there is no need to do an 'in-depth analysis').

Thinking is not the major feature and, therefore, there is no need for the gamer to be alarmed. Only a little bit of thinking and lots of creativity is required to master the levels of this game.

The music of this game is also quite nice and provides a nice add-on source of entertainment.

Most of the major 'online games reviews dealing' websites have a review of this game. The gamer will be able to generate the attraction in himself after reading these reviews. This attraction is sure to turn into pure delight when the gamer actually starts to play this game.

Its a battle for saving honour for Kevin Pietersen and his men when they face the 'men in blue' in their fifth encounter slated to be held at Cuttack on 26 November ,2008. English cricket team has been made to bite the bullet by the Dhoni's boys. A win in tomorrow's game will certainly help English cricket team to salvage their pride to certain extent who right from the onset have looked out of any sorts. On the other hand, Indian cricket team is on a high after registering an emphatic victory over the Englishmen in their last outing in Bangalore. Since then every news channel is airing cricket news bulletin every hour. English team which can count itself 'unlucky' as the rough weather and some inconsistent umpiring did subdue their chances of making a comeback to a large extent. For English team, things can get more complicated with Sachin Tendulkar coming into the picture.

The Master Blaster Tendulkar challenge can prove to be a costly affair for the English bowlers who have already suffered a lot from Yuvraj and company. 2008 has seen some of the brilliant most knocks from the pocket-sized dynamo, including the two back-to-back sizzling innings that cost Australia VB series in their own homeland early this year. Making a comeback to one day affair after a sabbatical, he was unlucky to miss out in Bangalore, but Indian people know, the team knows and most of all England cricket team knows that 'he is due for a big one'.

England cricket team on the other hand would be needing to do something out of the world. Their problems are non-ending as Kevin Pietersen, their captain and ace batsman, is struggling to lift up the sagging shoulders of his team. Andrew Flintoff, though has been quite effective with both bat and ball, but he has been dealt with perfection by Indian team until now. Even the bowling department has been quite erratic. Both James Anderson and Stuart Broad have been patchy, while as far as spin department is concerned, Kevin's decision not to field any spinner on the decent turning tracks has been something that has puzzled lot of people. All in all, after a series win in this bilateral one day cricket affair, Indian team confidence is certainly on a high. However, they will be intending to extend this lead of 4-0 to 7-0, signifying the complete authority over the English cricket team. On the other hand, it is an important chance for English team to redeem their status in World cricket domain.

Online games have developed in many ways with gamers becoming more and more oriented towards gaming in more ways than one.

The share market is a financial entity involved in the process of buying and selling of shares, with this process being done either by shareholders themselves or by their brokers.

It has an innovation in the form of the gamers marketplace, which operates on the same process of buying and selling with the entities being gaming assets and the buyers and the sellers being the gamers themselves.

This is a marketplace which handles MMO (Massively multiplayer Online)games with the gamers trading in assets related to MMO games. The assets being traded are things like game guides, power levels, gaming currency and many more things.

MMO games are the advanced versions of multiplayer games. The major feature of these games are that they are able to be played by a huge number of gamers at the same time.

Gamers now have a secure MMO based gaming marketplace which has been set up by PlayerAuctions. This marketplace is quite an useful one for gamers who engage hours in MMO games and seriously do trading of the gaming features.

Some of the latest online games are featured in this gamers marketplace. The gamer is therefore able to buy or sell assets related to games like 'Lord of the Rings online', 'World of Warcraft', 'Final Fantasy XI' and 'Age of Conan'. There are, however many more games which are handled by this marketplace.

There are many differences between the B2C model of this business and the normal B2C model. One of them is the exclusion of any intermediary which leads to the gamers being able to gain higher levels of profits.

This is a gamers marketplace which has hit the roof of success. The figures perhaps put this a bit more clearly. As of July 2007, the total number of members were about 4.5 million with a total of 260 games being supported.

Gamers can therefore make money with this new innovation, apart from playing online games. Experienced traders in this 'marketplace' develop an acute business skill which is quite capable of being useful in other business aspects.

The gamers marketplace, especially this one, is one of the frequently used ones with electronic commerce being given a new and an entertaining meaning.

Everything has its present state and also has a future. Online games have their future settled safely into the advanced and, therefore, healthy arms of Flash.

The number of websites having free online games continues to grow with an amazing consistency. The number of games is now becoming harder and harder to estimate. However one technology is slowly making its way into these games by being their basic technology.

Flash games have become the dominant aspect of the online gaming scenario. These games bear features like fantastic and easy to play levels, great sound quality and colourful and mellow graphics. They also take less time to get started. These features have increased their preference remarkably.

Flash games (online ones) are featured on most of the gaming websites. These games are present in each and every feasible genre. Therefore, the technology of Flash is used to make games based on racing, adventure, action, and other innovative categories like Christmas games for example.

These games are the future of free online games. This is evident with more and more gaming websites switching over to Flash based games. This technology has enabled games with features, which were not present in games made using other technologies.

Flash games, online flash games to be more specific, are able to give higher levels of enjoyment and fun to the gamers. The major feature of these games lie not only in their advance features, but also in their habit of being changed.

Every new visit to the same gaming website, brings with it new Flash games for the gamer. Some of them are even made on real events which have taken place in the 'really recent past'.

New movies have their Flash games online within days of the movies getting released. Recent sports matches have their online versions in the form of Flash games being put on the websites, even while the matches are still going on.

Another major feature of free online games made using flash are frequent contests. These contests have fantastic prices like electronic gadgets and even money. The attraction of playing Flash games online is increased due to this factor also.

Innovations have taken place on most of the gaming websites. One of the innovation being done is the redeeming of points being earned according to the scores being made by gamers in different games. These 'points' are given names like 'carrots', 'beens' etc. The higher, the score of the gamer, more is the amount of 'carrots' or 'beens' being earned by him. Some gaming websites give away free gadgets in exchange of these points.

Therefore, the number of gamers playing flash games online is in the process of being increased. The games themselves are becoming more and more advanced in their features which is increasing their appeal to the gamers.

Technologies have come together to provide their blessing on the leisure time of human beings in many wonderful ways in the past. The present sees the infusion of listening to music and watching TV online being one of the primary ways.

The prevalence of online games is quite a well known feature all over the world and, therefore, needs no introduction or even an explanation as to what it is. The new features which are also quickly becoming well known ones have in themselves, the capacity to harbor the attention of human beings in many attractive ways. Music was once available to human beings only with the help of CDs and cassettes of live concerts. However, it is now easily available in the form of live radio stations. Visuals are also aspects being introduced in this list of wonderful features with the user now being able to watch TV online and view some of his favourite shows without having to use the medium of a television.

Sports have always been a wonderful medium for having fun both by playing them and by watching them being played. Many major sports are now vested with competitions with countries having their teams participating in these activities. These were available before the introduction of online television viewing, only in the form of live broadcasts or recorded ones. Cricket, being one of the major examples, used to have the aspect of crowds being glued to a single TV set especially in the Indian subcontinent where it has hallowed dimensions of popularity. Many things have changed now with one of them being able to watch cricket online and, therefore, have the asset of being able to watch matches whenever he wants to.

This new feature has enabled many dimensions for the user to use in order to have a good time. Most of the websites which have this feature have it in a well managed manner. Therefore, the user is able to watch different channels like ones having fashion shows, or ones which show movies or even ones which show news and that to 'breaking' ones. One is, therefore, able to watch TV online and gain the same degree of enjoyment while watching shows on a normal television channel on a normal TV.

The feature of being able to watch television shows is however not a new feature as one is able to do so using the computer with the help of a TV tuner card. However, this is one of the basic aspects whose absence in the ability to watch TV online, becomes quite an advantage for the user. All that a user is required to do is to gain access to a website which has online television as one of its features. There is no need to install any form or degree of additional software or hardware for being able to watch TV online. Furthermore, this feature is also free on most of the websites, which further enhances its appeal.

A website which allows gamers to earn money using trading activities is one of the new additions to online gaming portals.

This is a website which allows two activities to be conducted. The first one is the enjoyable act of playing free online games. The second one is the act of earning money by selling off games.

Perhaps this can be explained with an example. The most lucid example is that of 'Whirled' which is an online gaming website recently launched by the company called Three rings.

This website allows gamers to create a virtual business set-up in which they sell games and other 'stuff'. They can earn money by selling these games however, the portion of the sales price received by them is one-third. The is because a part of the revenue is taken by the company while the other is taken by the creator of the game.

Thinking differently is a feature of this website, and this is clear in the three ways by which gamers can earn money, The first one is the process of receiving 'bars' upon selling of the games. These bars are, however, acquired in exchange of real money.

They can also earn 'blings' which can be exchanged for money. Another gaming currency given the name of 'coins' is available with the gamers earning it by virtue of their deeds of grandeur being done in the games that they play.

Being different is, therefore, one of the major features of this online gaming portal.

Free online games are also a feature of this portal with wonderful games being present. These games are wonderful due to being advanced in all their features. The overall collection of games is quite mesmerizing.

The world today is full of amazing things to be felt and experienced. Portals like this are one of those things and they should be visited in order to experience the beauty and the variety of their features.

One can play games, sell things and earn money and have lots of fun on these websites. Enjoyment is the major feature of this new form of online gaming portal.

Any portion of any Pakistan vs India Cricket News article is always interesting considering the political background and the relationship between the two countries. This particular Cricket news has caught the attention of most of the readers.

Furthermore, other events that have taken place in the country have led to the cancellation of many cricket series and championships in the past. The postponing of the 8-nation Champions trophy has led to further fortification of the security fears of the players in Pakistan.

The government, however, assures that all the feasible steps which can be taken are actually being taken in order to ensure security.

The belief that Australian Kangaroos need psychologist support cannot be completely ruled out. Players such as Symonds and Tait had a record of mental fatigue. Then the episode when Brett Lee's marriage bust up became the latest cricketing buzz. All these have left the players shattered and they are baffled at their mental exertion. Thus professionals who are psychologists are recommended to help players to come out of their mental dilemma. The presence of a psychologist would certainly help Australian cricketers to stay relaxed while they are on a tour to a place.

Though it is also true that employing a psychologist while the team is on a tour would be expensive, but it would definitely help cricketers to have emotional care and remain emotionally stable. As cricketers spend time away from family and friends, so it is actually necessary that they are taken good care of. They should not feel home-sick and deprived. So, a psychologist can truly help cricketers maintain their mental balance. It is good to have someone with a close relationship with players and what else can be better than a psychologist.

It is this close relationship that would make it possible to understand the players better and help them to overcome their mental tensions. So, it is decided that Australia will continue to monitor Brett Lee, Clarke and others in the upcoming Twenty20 cricket series. This would definitely help the Australian cricket to soar higher and players perform better.

Cricketers after the completion of a series take back home millions of dollars. So, it is also necessary that they play well for their country. The performance of a player can be expected to be good only if the player is mentally and physically stable. Thus is the need of a psychologist in the Australian team. The person employed for the purpose should be able to keep a good relationship with all the members of the team and help them to overcome their mental exertion. This would certainly help the Australian cricket to become better in the future. The aim of this is not to increase expenses, but to ensure that the Australian cricket is devoid of any flaws.

INDORE, India, Nov 17 (Reuters) - Yuvraj Singh blasted his second consecutive century and grabbed four wickets to guide India to a comfortable 54-run win over England in the second one-day international on Monday.

The 26-year-old hit 118 to lift India out of trouble at 29 for three and to an imposing 292 for nine before denting England's fightback, putting the hosts 2-0 up in the seven-game series.

England collapsed to 238 all out after Yuvraj ended a 96-run second-wicket partnership by removing Owais Shah (58) and Matt Prior (38) in successive overs before returning 4-28 bowling slow left-arm spin on a sluggish pitch.

He returned to dismiss Andrew Flintoff (43) and skipper Kevin Pietersen (33) in the same over after their racy 74-run fourth-wicket partnership had kept alive England hopes before they lost four wickets for eight runs.

"At 29-3 we definitely felt we had a chance (but) we probably slipped there," Pietersen said. "And after the Power Play I think Freddie and I took it quite nicely to get the momentum back but unfortunately we lost ourselves to Yuvraj.

"He again played a fantastic game today, scoring a 100 and taking four for nothing, I mean the boy is playing good cricket."

Yuvraj, who stroked 138 not out to set up India's crushing 158-run win in Friday's first contest of the seven-match series, took over after young paceman Stuart Broad's triple strike left the hosts reeling at 29 for three.

He struck his 10th one-day hundred and added 134 runs for the fourth wicket with opener Gautam Gambhir, who made 70 for his second fifty of the series.

Crystal Chronicles introduced some interesting ideas in terms of multiplayer role-playing, and Ring of Fates looks intent on continuing this. Gamers can decide how well it does this when the game is released in a couple of months.

When Crystal Chronicles first appeared on the Gamecube, it got quite a bit of praise for incorporating multiplayer gameplay into a Final Fantasy game, not to mention it was pretty neat to see the series make an appearance on a Nintendo console after a lengthy hiatus. Now Crystal Chronicles is about to get itself a new instalment, but this time on the DS, all while centering on something called the Ring of Fates.

Like its predecessor, Ring of Fates will support up to four players in multiplayer mode, as well as sporting the option to go it alone in single player. In the event one decides to play with some friends, everyone involved votes on a group leader, and then they get down to business.

While going through multiplayer, there will be five classes to choose from: Warriors, Archers, White Mages, Black Mages, and a support class. Warriors are the melee fighters for up close combat, while archers rain arrows from a distance, and black mages bombard enemies with arcane attacks. All the while, white mages take care of healing. The support class appears to fill a micromanagement role where it creates special orbs that magic users need in order to cast their spells.

Generally, the action will take place on the DS' top screen, while players issue commands and sort through menus via the touch screen. However, it is possible to swap the screens, allowing players to attack enemies simply by poking them with their stylus pen. Going this route is also expected to open the door to special combo attacks.

Single player mode will follow the adventures of twins Yuri and Chelinka as they unearth the mysteries of a red crystal. Along the way they will meet new characters like Meeth, the spell caster Alhanalem, a lad named Gnash, and the twins' father, Ratov.

Neopets Puzzle Adventure is a tough game to put down once you get into it. Like chess or checkers, Reversi is about thinking ahead and anticipating your opponent. Once you get that down, you'll find yourself itching to move ahead and beat the next challenge. There is also a multiplayer mode where you can play head-to-head with a friend. In-game achievements will unlock a code that you can redeem on the Neopets.com site for special items. Look for this puzzling adventure when it is released on the DS November 25.

It's a very simple game, but it's one of those games that can take a lifetime to really master. Lucky for you, it only takes a few tries to get the hang of it, and you'll eventually adopt your own strategies to outwit your opponent. You begin the game with four tokens on the gridlike board, with two blue and two red tokens in the center. As the blue player, you want to surround your opponent's red tokens with your own. Your goal is to box the red token in--either horizontally or diagonally--and once you to do, the token(s) will change to blue. You take turns with your opponent and can only place tokens down on areas that will cause the opponent's token to flip. If you wait a few seconds, the game will show you what moves you can make.

The strategy changes once you acquire petpets, which are pets for your neopet. These petpets come with a variety of special abilities, so some can help you remove your opponent's token or change its color. Before battle, you are allowed to equip a specific number of petpets, and they can only be used once per fight. There are 25 petpets to discover and collect. Depending on how you play and what board you're playing on, some have powers that are more helpful than others. As the story develops, your challenges will also increase in difficulty. For example, your board will have areas that are blocked out, which will change your strategy.Overall its a good puzzle to puzzle you.

EVE Online is set in outer space, where players command massive starships. Players can travel throughout an online galaxy comprising thousands of individual worlds, and can lead careers as pirates, traders, prospectors, speculators and much more. The game has been available for the Mac since 2007.

Unlike many online games, EVE Online all takes place within a “single shard” system, where all players participate on the same server — up to tens of thousands of gamers play at any given time, all sharing the same experience. That’s led to occasional problems involving game lag and other issues compounded by having many players online together at once.

Quantum Rise, the ninth expansion to EVE Online, is a two-staged release. The first stage has already been deployed — CCP has incorporated “under the hood” enhancements to resolve those problems — the game now uses technology called “StacklessIO” and “EVE64” to help reduce network lag and server overloads.

Newly announced enhancements for Quantum Rise include in-game subscription services; “Assembly Array” upgrades for those wanting to produce very large items; Alchemy; UI changes including a moveable HUD, module recharge timers and weapon grouping; more efficient bomb production; a re-balancing f ship speeds; 10 new music tracks; and upgrades to the Trinity Premium graphics content (which, sadly, is not yet available for the Mac).

Other already-announced feature updates in Quantum Rise include the ability for corporations to distribute custom medals; a newly-designed certificate system; re-balancing of industrial ships and the introduction of a new capital ship called the Orca, new autopilot avoidance options and more.

More details are anticipated at EVE Fanfest, CCP’s annual gathering of EVE Online enthusiasts, which comes to CCP’s home town of Reykjavik, Iceland from November 6 - 8, 2008.

EVE Online requires an Intel-based Mac to play. A 14-day free trial is available for download.

In 1994, Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) was founded as the North America division of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. Taking approximately four years to develop, the PlayStation® game console was introduced in the United States in 1995.

The launch of the PlayStation brand was a sensation. In the very first weekend, more than 100,000 units were sold. In the first six months, over a million were sold. In April 1997, with nearly 4 million PlayStation® game consoles in North America, we found a way to strengthen our bond with PlayStation® owners even more. Our interactive relationship marketing program, PlayStation® Underground, gives us the opportunity to recognize and reward our loyal gamers. Members of the PlayStation® Underground can feel as though they belong to a subculture of intense gamers by experiencing new game challenges and getting the scoop on upcoming games, merchandise, and special offers.

The company next set its sights on development of the PlayStation®2, which became available to consumers in November 2000. With its incredible power and the exciting added ability to play CDs and DVD movies, this new system was unstoppable, making it possible for smooth, lifelike animation to be shown in real time. Then in August 2002, the company introduced the option to play games online with the new Network Adaptor (Ethernet/modem) (for PlayStation®2).

In March 2005, the PlayStation®Portable (PSP™) was launched in North America, bringing an unparalleled gaming experience to a handheld platform. With graphics rendering capability comparable to that of the PlayStation® 2 system, the PSP™ features a 4.3-inch widescreen, high-resolution TFT display.

On November 17, 2006, Sony released the PLAYSTATION®3. PLAYSTATION®3 is the most advanced computer system that serves as a platform to enjoy next generation computer entertainment contents in the home, realized through the combination of Cell and RSX™ processors, in addition to the compatibility of a vast catalog of PlayStation® and PlayStation®2 software titles. With its Giga-bit Ethernet and a pre-installed hard disk drive (HDD), users will be able to use the PLAYSTATION®3 to download a variety of online contents as well as access online games. Equipped with basic input/output ports, PLAYSTATION®3 supports a broad range of displays from conventional NTSC/PAL standard TVs to the latest full HD (1080i/1080p) flat panel displays, offering the joy of the most advanced computer entertainment contents to homes around the world.

If you’re new to PSP, or just haven’t got yourself a new game in a while, you’ll find plenty of hidden classics in the handheld's software catalogue.

It’s the way of the world that certain games steal all the limelight when they’re released, while other titles make their way onto the shelves with comparatively little fanfare. Here are five games that you might have missed that are more than deserving of your attention.

Ape Escape P

A remake of the original Ape Escape, which made its debut on PS one, this is perfectly suited to PSP. Your task is to capture the charming little monkeys that have gone on to become PlayStation icons, using a variety of inventive gadgets. This slick platform adventure is perfect, colourful fun for summer.

Worms Open Warfare

Team 17 has been polishing the Worms formula for years now, but the arrival of Worms Open Warfare finally makes it possible to enjoy some top-notch wormage wherever you may be. A turn-based strategy game, Worms requires you to take your team of invertebrates into pitched battle, using a huge variety of comedy weapons.

The game is as enjoyable on PSP as it has ever been, and robust Wireless multiplayer modes make for hours of entertainment.

Bust-A-Move Ghost

Another classic gets updated for PSP – in this case, a timeless puzzle game that’s perfectly suited to the colourful, crisp screen of the multimedia wonder machine. Line up and launch your bubbles to create clusters that pop and create chain reactions. One of the most enjoyable multiplayer games ever created, Bust-A-Move Ghost also features a huge amount of puzzles for single players to tackle.

Gottlieb Pinball Classics

Pinball tables don’t seem as ubiquitous as they once were – but when you can play flawless versions of Gottlieb’s classic tables on your PSP whenever you want, who cares? Eleven tables are included, and the simulation of the silver ball as it pings, bumps and bashes its way around them is spot-on. High-score challenge games are brilliantly suited to the portable format, and there’s no better high-score challenge than a good pinball table.

WipEout Pure

If you’re a more recent arrival to the world of PSP, you may have missed out on WipEout Pure – in which case, you’ve got a real treat in store. One of the highlights of the system’s launch line-up, this futuristic racer combines lightning-speed, cutting-edge visuals with a classy soundtrack and reams of extra downloadable content through this very site. It’s recently become available as a Platinum title too, making it one of the most essential PSP titles out there.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King builds on the rich foundation established in World of Warcraft and its first expansion, The Burning Crusade, by providing a wealth of new content for players to explore in the harsh, forbidding continent of Northrend, home of the Lich King and his undead minions. To contend with the new challenges found there, players will be able to advance to level 80, acquiring potent new abilities and talents along the way.

Wrath of the Lich King will introduce the death knight Hero class to World of Warcraft. Furthermore, player-vs.-player battles will reach a new level of intensity with the addition of siege vehicles and destructible buildings, along with a new Battleground, Strand of the Ancients.

The expansion will also introduce an abundance of new quests, dungeons, monsters, items, and recipes, as well as a new profession, Inscription. Additional character-customization options will be introduced, such as new hair styles, available in the new barbershops.

In addition, World of Warcraft now has an Achievement system. Achievements are self-contained goals and challenges designed to satisfy goal-oriented players. There are more than 700 individual Achievements covering every aspect of game play, including world exploration, PvE, PvP, professions, and character development. Some Achievements come with in-game rewards such as tabards, mounts, vanity pets, and titles, and other players will be able to see your Achievements. All of these rewards are purely cosmetic and just for fun.

Samba de Amigo is a classic arcade hit from the late '90s. The game featured novel maraca controllers that enabled the player to shake along with the music to score points. Since then, rhythm action games have had quite a journey, both in public arcades and on home consoles.

Here, Sega brings their much desired game to the Wii, replacing the maracas with the Wii-mote and Nun-chuck.

What Sort of Game Is This?
Rhythm action games combine the enjoyment that comes from creating music with the challenge of videogame scoring. The player is usually tasked with dancing on a mat, tapping a touchscreen, pressing a button, singing into a mic or strumming a fake guitar controller in time with the music.

What Does This Game Add to the Genre?
Samba de Amigo's gesture controls were revolutionary when it was launched in arcades and on the Sega Dreamcast. Even in the days of Wii-motes and Nun-chucks it is a rarity to find a rhythm action game that makes good use of movement (Boogie Wii and Eyetoy PS2 being some notable exceptions). The simple fact is that it is a tall order to get the technology to work consistently enough for the accurate demands of making music. Wii-Music shows that even Nintendo's own developers had to take a looser play-along style, rather than a direct one-to-one control.

In Samba de Amigo, the player uses the Wii-mote and Nun-chuck as they would a pair of maracas. Each track tasks them with making specific down/up and left/right movements in time with the musical markers. This works pretty well and allows two players to play with or against each other without the need for expensive additional peripherals. The best experience, though, is had by one player using two Wii-motes. The absence of the tethering cable and (the perceived) increased sensitivity of the Wii-motes enables more accurate controls and subsequently higher scores — and, of course, more fun.

The game continues its Mexican carnival theme throughout, both graphics and music being styled appropriately. Popular songs (both classic and modern) are rendered in the Calypso carnival style to make them suitable for the maraca percussion. Included in the mix are "Are you Gonna be my Girl" (Jet), "I Want Candy" (Bow Wow Wow) and the party pleasing "Mambo Mambo" (Lou Bega).

Although this all stays true to the original game, players may sense that rhythm-action games have moved on somewhat in the intervening years. Games like Rockband 360 and Elite Beat Agents DS can make Sega's originally ground-breaking game look a little tired.

Anyone who was around in the 1980’s will remember all the classic games of the time that we couldn’t wait to get home to play, R-type, Sonic the Hedgehog and of course Golden Axe. All of these games have been remade at some point and now it is the turn of Golden Axe to return to the fray, this time on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

If there was one game that I always used to enjoy playing with my friends it was Golden Axe, it was a bit like a Medieval Street of Rage, swapping broken bottles for sword and axe, oh and it was good, very good. Unfortunately however the same cannot be said for the latest remake, Golden Axe: Beast Rider is to be frank, a game that should never have been made.

The premise of the game is to rebuild the Golden Axe to help you in your quest for vengeance against the armies of the Death Adder who have massacred everyone in the land. This will result in you pounding your way through level after level of enemy until either a) you fall asleep with boredom or b) you come to your senses and turn the game off before it puts you off gaming forever.

Now there have been plenty of games before which rely on killing hordes of enemies as the main draw, but at least these games bring something interesting to the party, Beast Rider on the other hand brings nothing but a weak combat system and poor graphics and to be honest that is me being kind. Combat is assigned to two buttons, one for a weak attack and the other for a more powerful attack, pressing both together will enable you to kick opponents. Dodging and parrying is pulled off by pressing one of the two shoulder buttons, when enemies attack they will glow a certain colour, so pressing the corresponding shoulder button and then quickly attacking will cause you to dodge/parry and then counter attack and this usually causes more damage. Unfortunately due to a delay in the animations when parrying you will usually end up flat on your behind, meaning that you are probably best just attacking and getting through the fight that way.

Another way to defeat enemies is by using magic, this allows you to use one of two spells to cast at the enemy providing you have enough mana, one spell throws a fireball at the enemies while the other will cause a flame to erupt around you and cause them to fall to the floor while remaining on fire.

SPORE Creature Creator isn’t really a game, neither is it a preview in terms of what SPORE is going to be. Its just a small part of full game of SPORE that is going to hit stores in the first week of September. The Creature Creator is like play-dough on screen which you can mold into different creatures with a variety of heads, arms, legs and camouflage even. So lets take a look at what the creature creator offers.

Almost everyone out there has heard about SPORE, and even if you haven’t or aren’t the type of gamer that likes SPORE, you should definitely give it’s demo a try. The creature creator is so simple and intuitive that within minutes of installing it you will have your first creature ready and flipping over doing 360’s. There is a huge assortment of body parts available for you to start creating your masterpiece. You can also have a few backgrounds, a palette of colors for your creature and the ability to have 3 hatchlings after you’ve made your creature.

With modern games like Halo and the Resident Evils, the video game world has become obsessed with the first person 3D format where you’re “virtually” mimicking your own real life movements. In a modern game like GTA, you’re given a 3D format where you’re able to move in all directions towards another point. What are all these games missing? In this article, we’ll discuss the fact that what’s missing from these games is mainly due to the 3D format of modern video games. With this in mind, we’ll see how the video game world needs to go back to 2D gaming to capture its lost greatness from the 8 and 16-bit era’s. The problems started happening at the 32-bit era. It’s time to move forward by taking a couple steps back.

1. Better Games: Why were games like Mario, Mega Man, and even Sonic (Yes Old-Wizard admits Sonic was OK!) great games? There were many reasons why these games were great, but one thing is common to them all. They were all 2D games. Even when Mega Man saw it’s ascent to the 16-bit format, it didn’t change it’s 2D style. If I remember correctly, the Mega Man X’s were great games also. The same holds true for Mario’s ascent to the 16 bit age. The games that will be remembered past this time will be the 2D games. The new 3D games are going to be seen as being too tied to the times, and specifically the times lack of substance.

2. You don’t want to play in the same dimensions you live in: You live in a “3D” world. You walk in it, you eat in it, you sleep in it, and worst of all you work in it. Why would you want to carry over these habitual characteristics to the video game world? I don’t want to think about another 3D universe when I go home to play games. I want to be taken into a simple 2D world with great story lines that have nothing to do with my own “real” life. Mimicking what we perceive as “reality” is not progress for the video game medium; it’s a lack of understanding of other dimensions, and more precisely, just another way of unconsciously privileging ourselves (ego) in all facets of the universe.

3. No more GTA’s: Although the first two Grant Theft autos were 2D games, the series found its first real success in the world of 3D. This is when it started to dominate the video game world. In a 2D world, there would be no more Grand Theft Autos, thank God (or at least they wouldn’t be as popular as they are now). There would be no more news stories of this hyper-urban game that found its success on bloodlust violence and man’s lack of good taste for immediate pleasure. No more having to see front covers who people who wear “bling” and are holding guns in front of them. This pathetic excuse for creativity in a video game would be abolished if the 2D world was able to reign supreme. The gamer would be back on an epic journey rather than living a pseudo-reality of gangster life that has nowhere to go except to modern violence.

4. Smoother controlling: Ever play Resident Evil? Ever play GTA? Don’t these games sometimes just piss you off in the controlling? It takes two fucking hours to turn around in Resident Evil. This isn’t real, its just fucking annoying. The blocky, slow movement of many of these 3D games takes away any sense of gaming moving forward by not replicating the real phenomena of the human body like it wants itself too. You’re getting eaten alive by zombies and it takes you literally 5 seconds to turn around and knock these bastards down. This isn’t fun.

5. Loss of focus on graphics: If the video games went back to 2D, there wouldn’t have to be so much of a focus on creating the “new graphical chip that will expand graphics to even more real life themes!” Game developers will be less worried about eye candy and more focused on story line, innovative levels, and how to specifically challenge the gamer. Starting with games like Virtua Fighter, gaming has sacrificed quality for graphical innovation. Once this unconscious drive for technological innovation is curtailed, video games can one again find their roots in which they first stemmed.

The expression of raw power and anger was dominant in the movie made about the marvel comics good guy(with a lot of anger and brute power), Hulk. The game is even more fantastic and the user will be able to have the full experience of being the full raw anger called the Hulk.

The Incredible Hulk:Ultimate Destruction is a game which seeks the attention of gamers all over the world by its ability to invoking the feeling of anger and power within. It is a game for men in the sense that all it has in it is complete demolition as well as destruction of objects ranging from cars to buildings. Pure surge in adrenaline is what the gamer will feel when he plays this game. The urge to be the Hulk in this game is further enhanced by the good graphics and sound. To put it simply it is a game for men and that too for those who have anger stored in them. This is also a good game in this respect as it acts as a stress buster in the stress friendly world of today and hence should be experienced in a great way.

'The Incredible Hulk:Ultimate Destruction' is a game which is based on the movie itself and hence gamers who have seen the movie can experience the feeling that they felt within themselves while viewing the movie, one again by playing this game. An immense degree of attention has been focused on character detail and hence the graphics are awesome and the Hulk looks and sounds are as real as it was in the movie.

The power is felt in the act of destroying buildings into pieces with bare hands and this is the feeling which a gamer is bound to get when he sets about and settles down in the game by lifting and throwing cars and creating an immense amount of destruction. Damage is thus an element fused with the anger of the hulk in this game and hence the users will have a wonderful time playing this game. Hence they will break cars and destroy buildings, create new access points by breaking walls and ultimately shedding off their anger in this marvel of a game.

The gameplay is further improved by the fact that this is an online action game and hence the fusion of online gaming experience as well as great graphics becomes the major feature. This game also has a rage meter which shows the level of the anger that the character of Hulk possesses and is an interactive game at its best.

The Battle of the Bands is a very fascinating game. The features of the game are very exciting. The users can make use of the Wii remote to cross the beat line and make occasional jab on the screen. If the users can hit the notes squarely then that leads to better point results. This constant chipping with one another is done to add to ones tally. The players beat icons as they come near the beat line and this leads to an adverse affect on the opponents. In fact, hitting the icons decides ones winning capacity. A stage in the game arises when the main goal becomes launching green skulls on opponents.

This video game is available with free online games website. The users can play this marvellous game online too. But, I personally prefer to download the game for playing purpose. The reason is that it is accessible anytime. I can play the game even when I am on the way to my office. The Battle of the Bands is very exciting and I would recommend it to everyone.

The players can also connect their gaming console to a TV and play the game with ease. The console then serves as the remote control and users find it very exciting to play the game on a TV screen.

Information about this game is available on the internet. One can get detailed information about how the game is to be played and what techniques should be applied for becoming a winner while playing the game.

The user-friendly interface of the game makes it possible for people to keep playing different levels of this video thriller. The users find it very exciting while playing the game and so continue to play more number of rounds. It is very common to see people loading this game in their own personal console. People then play the it while they are travelling and at times when they feel bored. The excitement of playing the Battle of the Bands prevails for long hours. It helps players become relaxed. It draws out all tensions from ones mind.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2: Fusion is a very good addition to the group of online web games and it is quite an experience to play it. This is game which comes with a surprise which becomes the major punchline of this game. This product is present in most of the known gaming platforms like the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and many more. Hence, this game is not too hard to find as it comes with all the major gaming platforms and the experience of playing this game is fantastic.

The last word of the title of this game is Fusion. This word is indicative of the basic feature of this game which sees a collection of major superheroes working together as a team in order to achieve impossible and wonderful deeds. The story starts with a convincing effort to create a team of superheroes who together are to fight a large horde of super villains and beasts. Although the list of heroes involved in this game is not completely exhaustive yet the gamer can play the role of icons like Spiderman, Hulk, Daredevil, Wolverine, Thor, Venom, Captain America and also Invisible Woman. The player can thus throws webs while playing Spiderman and crush enemies by stampeding towards them in the form of Hulk. He can also swipe his villains to pieces with the ultra sharp blades on his hand when he plays the character of Wolverine. In all there are about 24 characters from which the player can choose from and also includes challenging conquests in the form of villains who have super powers.

The game also sees teamwork in the best form possible among games that are dependent on the spirit of teamwork and collective success. Since this is an online multilayer game hence different types of people located anywhere in the world can play the role of the featured superheroes and hence have a great time in working as a team and fulfilling majestic deeds which carry loads of human excellence.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2: Fusion involves all the facets which are a part of online multilayer games and the player can expect a fantastic experience which is however dependent on his modem performance. Hence with a good modem and high connection speeds this game puts the garb of a completely new form of gaming magnificence. The gamer can hence expect the performance of a lifetime when he starts playing this game and taking part in the different tasks involved while playing this online game.

This game thus proves itself as one of the best games in the online web games scenario and is also one of the best present in terms of performance and efficiency. The game play and the graphics looks quite good judging from the screen shots available at various websites.

Are you fond of the popular website cartoon Homestar Runner? If yes, you will like it even more in the online game - Homestar Ruiner.

Hence, in a way these games are tutorials masquerading as fun items.

The Homestar Ruiner is a magnificent game which incorporates the essence of the classic humor and distinguished art style which is the prime flavor of the original website cartoon of the same name.

However, Strong Bad repents on his deed because as a result of spoiling Marzipan's party Homestar had to drop in at Strong Bad place to seek shelter( Marzipan is in real bad temper). Consequently, Strong bad is left with no option than to help Homestar in the race and set things right. The game takes a funny twist and the puzzles on the way get intensely tougher with the advancing stages. With the intensity of the difficulty, the fun also gets a thrust and thus the game makes every single moment in its course fun-filled and thriving. Not to mention, unlike the other action games, there will be a smile on your face throughout the game.

After the award winning conquest game, “The Age Of Empire: Conqueror's Campaign”, the furore of the battle games took the form of a vortex. Supreme Commander has also lent a valuable contribution to intensify this craze.

The excitement of building and administering a large territory is matchless. Games of the other genre that get over in minutes cannot compare themselves with these conquest games where the games get extended to days during the early few trials. The Supreme Commander is one very distinguished game which has already made a huge fervent fan-follow up who won’t mind singing its praises all day long. The world of War craft which is depicted in this game is what makes the amateur gamers feel the urge to keep on playing the game.

Collecting resources, building structures, producing units, creating an army of warriors and finally crushing the opponents are the main strategies of this game. It needs a lot of planning and speculations to adopt the right means, choosing the right time and deciding the right move to tackle each of these actions.

The famous movie was sure a treat to sore eyes. The characters of Jack Sparrow and Will Turner depicted the proper images of the good old pirates. Apart from this, the whole construction of the movie was magnificent and majestic. The game as far as I am concerned is also an effective and efficient time out for anybody. This is one of the latest free online games that has hit the online game industry and has already the maximum number of players engaged in playing it.

The game has the gamers controlling a ship which goes around and around in a whirlpool and the players have to rescue five lost souls at a time. They have to save a maximum of 100 souls. They also have to pick up barrels of ammunition. This is used to fire at Krakan – the squid like creature which appears at the centre of the funnel in the whirlpool.

I played this game in my brother's house and this is one of the best games in the market. The controls are important and the major reasons for this is that the overall motive of the game is simple and the game-play is just too easy.

Hence I became the pirate and gave commands to my mates in the old rag torn 'Black Pearl' and fired many a cannonballs towards the horrible squid. Then I also pulled up lots of souls from the black waters and hence had a really great time in playing this game. Hence this is one the good online games that I have played up till now.

Then there are also the graphics which are good. Since this belongs to the genre of online games, the loading time of this game is also quite quick and one isn't required to wait too long for the game to start. This makes the interest to play the game grow and the game also further heightens the playing experience. Hence this game is thus very interesting and the experience to play the game grows in intensity as the time we play it gets longer. There are many free online games in the market today but this is perhaps the best of them since it doesn't take to long to load and the game is also not prone to hanging while the gamer is playing this game.

Therefore this game is a decent one and is also a welcome addition in the world of free online games, and there is so much to discover in this game even though the storyboard of this game is simple.

One of the latest multiplayer games in the market today is the blood omen 2. This is fantastic game which has been developed by crystal dynamics and is the latest product in the legacy of Kain series. Released on Playstation 2, Xbox and GameCube, this is one of the most interesting games that I have played till date. The game which has my favourite character Kain fighting the evil is one super pastime. My brother told me about this game and when we played the game at his house, it was just a wonderful experience altogether.

Thus I became the vampire and sought out on my journey to rule the state of Nosgoth. I had to watch my back too being the only survivor of the 'Circle of Nine' and the guardian of the 'Pillar of Balance'. The gameplay is good and the controls are quite easy to master given the fact that I was playing this game for the first time. The characters look fantastic on screen and when you play this game its like you have taken on a fabulous journey of surprises and challenges. The environment is good and the castles, the characters display an advanced form of animation. The sounds also feel nice on the ear drums. Therefore this game which is one the latest multiplayer games is quite a good adventure game as well.

The 'Dark Gifts' are quite interesting. The powers of mist and fury of Kain are very good and when I used it the graphics were just too good and the sound awesome. Then the other powers of the other characters look good too and the overall feel of the game is nice.

We had a great time by playing this game and I ended up staying at my brother's place for 3 hours. The plan was to pay him a visit for about 30 minutes. Therefore anybody who is thinking about whether this game is worth the effort or not would be at ease as this is worth every buck you have to shell out. Hence this game is therefore a good experience and a terrific one too. Hence this is one of the best online games in the market today.

X-Box creates a milestone since the release of the fresh fever of the season- Hunter: The Reckoning. As a fervent gamer, I own an X-BOX game console and I certainly am quite fond of the device as it intensifies the fun and the feel of the game manifold.

It is worth admitting that I had been into online gaming for a decade and during this period my inclination has always been towards dark and creepy games depicting a Gothic backdrop. Hunter: The Reckoning is one from that genre. The H:TR is the first ever Resident Evil style game on the X-BOX. This game takes you on a journey full of inexplicable, intriguing fun. The interface is so dark and eerie that it can give you creeps at some stages. The spine chilling ancient backdrop with sinister creatures adds to the horror.

H:TR runs on the lines of White Wolf Publishing pen & paper role-playing World of Darkness Hunter cosmos. The electrocution and execution of the murderer Nathaniel Arkady in the prison town Ashcroft gives the story a tremendous start. The inhabitants of the town are totally stranger to the fact that the penitentiary is secretly run by vampires who feed on the prisoners and use them for gruesome experiments. The Hunters who play a heroic part in the game are the only ones who can spot the creatures of the dark and destroy them. The souls of the dead prisoners lash out to seek vengeance and in the process kill many of the other living prisoners.

You get to choose from four main characters Avenger (Spenser “Deuce” Wyatt), Defender (Samantha Alexander), Martyr (Kassandra Cheyung), and Judge (Father Esteban Cortez). All of them are eyewitness of Arkady's execution and discover that they are the Hunters and hence the responsibility of eliminating the nightmarish creatures lies on their shoulders. They manage to take a narrow escape from the prison.

After a year, a rave party at the prison wakes up those ghastly creatures and the souls of the prison. Now your part comes into play. Cross the 23 bloodcurdling stages of horror and mystery to free the city from the upcoming danger. The meek inhabitants of the town are totally unaware of the mishaps in the prison. Your mission gets accomplished when you send the satanic creatures back to where they belong.

In all, the gratification which this free online games gives at the completion of each stage is beyond explanation.

Finally, wait ends here and we are ready to play Beijing Olympics 2008. But the game kills the eager and not so as expected. Sega tried to encash the Olympics fever but i think it'll not cover the expected market.

With the Olympics being such a grand affair, the game includes 38 events set across 10 sports. If you follow any of the main events then chances are they're included, but if you watch the Olympics for the football and tennis, look elsewhere. The majority on offer here are score or time based, but a few almost random events have been thrown in to spice things up a little. All the action is beautifully presented, which almost distracts from the game's biggest flaw: It's very difficult. "Beijing" starts you off with ridiculously weak characters (considering they're supposed to be Olympic-caliber athletes), and it takes a long time to build them up to a competitive level. That's OK if you're playing with friends and everyone's sluggish, but the single-player mode is bound to frustrate all but the most dedicated Olympics followers. One-and-a-half stars out of four.

Beijing 2008 uses some rather unorthodox controls, so once you've picked your sport and nation, your first point of call will be to check out the training mode. As you move between sports you'll notice some repetition in the way events are handled from a control standpoint, but given the sheer breadth of choice of sports available, you'll want to watch the tutorial at least once before you attempt having a go. Athletic sprint events use either a rapidly waggled left or right analog stick, or A and B alternating button press combo to build up speed. It can get a bit rough on the wrists and fingers, and we see the potential for a controller or two getting busted along the way given the speed at which you'll need to mash or waggle to be competitive against the game's AI.

At the moment Olympic fever hasn't really hit, yet we're still quite partial to a few sprint races in the office during our lunch break. Once the big event starts in August, being able to take part in the events from the comfort of your living room will be even more enticing. Make no bones about it, Beijing 2008 isn't doing anything all that new, but there's just something undeniably addictive about going for high scores and fastest times. If you've got an urge to twiddle an analogue stick faster than any human knew was possible you can do a lot worse.

There are some events that are utterly impossible even after you learn the necessary strategies and level up your athlete. Kayak is a cruel joke. You have no control over your tiny watercraft. Even if you somehow manage to pass through the appropriate gate, the game often won't register your success. Table tennis is just as pointless. Your giant body covers up an insanely high percentage of the table, making it impossible to see the ball if it's coming directly at you. A higher camera angle or translucent character would have fixed this problem, but in its current form, it's painfully bad.
