Do you like shooting things, or do you just like new things? The trend of new releases taking the top spot continues as the past winner Prototype 2 stomped off in anger, allowing Sniper Elite V2 and TERA to take top honors in the sales charts. Heller may not be too happy, but 505 Games and En Masse sure are. Just behind Prototype 2 was Just Dance 3, followed by...

Max Payne 3 is going to rock your world, Rockstar style in just a few weeks, and Rockstar is already adding more goodies to the title. Sure, bullet-time might have been so last decade, but Max Payne will show you how it’ll be back in style in absolutely no time. That bullet-between-your-eyes look will be absolutely smashing with that tousled business suit....

If you thought the highly-anticipated Call of Duty: Black Ops II reveal was spectacular, you’re definitely not alone. Amazon revealed earlier this week that day one pre-orders for Treyarch and Activision’s newest military shooter have blown a hole through the roof. Try this one on for size: Black Ops II pre-orders are already at ten times the...
