The latest installment of the BioShock series finds gamers in control of Pinkerton agent Booker DeWitt, hired by mysterious individuals to infiltrate the crumbling sky city of Columbia to rescue a young woman named Elizabeth from a large, robotic, bird-like creature named Songbird and an army of various half machine, half-monster nightmares.

In the follow-up to 2009's critically-acclaimed Prototype, gamers will take on the role of Sgt. James Heller as he goes on a mission to destroy the mysterious Blacklight Virus, as well as previous Prototype star Amex Mercer, who he blames for infecting him with the virus and killing his family.

Just in time for Valentines Day, the Twisted Metal series is back and finally hitting next-gen consoles on February 14. It's been 10 years since Sweet Tooth and the crew have terrorized motorways with their unique brand of defensive driving, and with Sony promising revamped and groundbreaking multiplayer experiences, we're expecting big things (and hoping this won't be another Duke Nukem letdown).

Taking place 17 years after the events of Soulcalibur IV, the fifth installment of Namco's Soul series finds Patroklos (son of Sophitia) taking on Pyrrha and assumedly a host of other legendary fighters. It was recently revealed that Ezio Auditore from Assassin's Creed II and Brotherhood will also be making an appearance in the game as a playable fighter.
