NBA2k13
Tomorrow
With 2k11 being so groundbreaking that it put its competition out of business, 2k certainly set the bar extremely high . 2kl3 promises to take things even a notch higher with the introductions of signature skills to truly make each player feel unique, allowing players to pit the 1992 Dream Team against the 2012 Olympic squad to finally determine which is better once and for all, along with other visual and gameplay improvements. 2k13 definitely should be on the radar of any basketball fan, and could serve as a great stepping stone into the world of the sport itself.
Resident Evil 6
Tomorrow
Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City wasn’t the best game but it still sold over 2 million copies which showed the power of the Resident Evil brand name. However, Resident Evil 6 appears to be a step in the right direction featuring three scenarios with three different characters and their partners and three distinct tones and feels that all intertwine to deliver one big scare fest as the fight against bio-terror wages on Resident Evil 6 also allows for co-op play so you and a friend can work together to eliminate the threat.
Pokemon Black 2 & White 2
Oct. 7
Pokemon is a series that appeals to all ages and multi¬ generations and when a new game is released it’s a pretty big deal. These sequels pick up 2 years after the first and keeps the traditional 'catch, train, battle’ element of Pokemon alive while introducing new elements. One of which is The Pokemon World Tournament where you can battle old trainers like Brock and Misty. If you've played a Pokemon game before then you'll pretty much know what to expect. If you haven’t it’s never too late to start.
Dishonored
Oct. 9
Dishonored is one of those games many people haven't heard about but it 's an innovative game that takes risks. Dishonored is a game that encourages multiple playthroughs as it provides you with multiple ways of complet ing a level. You can decide to go in guns blazing, or you can opt to take a stealthier route, the choice not you’ll kill a boss is an option. You’re also granted abilities that allow you to teleport short distances, freeze time and even possess the body of a human or fish. Dishonored is definitely a game to consider if you're looking for something different.
XCOM: Enemy Unknown
Oct. 9
XCOM will most likely end up being a sleeper hit because not everyone is a fan of turn-based strategy games but it's still a game worth checking out. In XCOM you 're tasked with saving the world from aliens, which sounds easy until you learn that your resources are limited from start to end . The challenge is learning to prioritize and deciding if the fate of one country is more important than another or if you’re more concerned with increasing fire power than examining the aliens you’ve captured. In battles your squad is sent out and being reckless is not an option because if one of your teammates die they’re gone for the rest of the game.
