New year. New list. By this point, you’ve finished the greatest PS3 games of 2011, and if you’re still treasure hunting Uncharted 3 or multiplayer marathon-ing Killzone 3, you probably don’t need us to remind you how great they are.

Update: So what’s the best of the best for Sony players right now? Our ten current recommendations…    

Our look back at the top 10 must-own games of 2011. What a great year to be a gamer!

Think every game this generation was brown, grey, or orange? These 14 games will prove you wrong...

How many lives has your favorite hero saved? Chances are, it's probably less than those on this list. See which gaming protagonist is a savior savant after the jump...

Cue the banjo! It wouldn’t be the Week of Hate without our trademark “100 Reasons” videos. In case you missed it, last year we targeted game platforms. So this year we thought we’d change it up and go after a few popular genres. Up first, the ubiquitous shooter.

- The rugged beauty of Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood- George's politically incorrect beat 'em-up game idea- Is the increased RRP for Modern Warfare 2 a rip-off. Answer: Yes. Sort of- Find out which console and game the gang would save from a burning building- Confession time turns into a group therapy session about pee-ing while drunk

Post date: Wednesday 29th July

July is a bit dry in terms of new-stuff quantity, but we’re really looking forward to the majority of its releases. We have a healthy amount of oddball gems, sequels and re-releases to look forward to. It’s as much a month to experiment on weird stuff as it is to catch up on stuff you may have missed a year (or five) ago. What’s particularly exciting is that we’re seeing a solid number of awesome-looking downloadable games. If you’d rather not spend $60 on bananas-bullshit like Catherine (which we’re way into, by the way), put that money toward a few XBLA games instead. You’ve got slimmer pickin’s than usual, but them pickin’s look good...

Like Batman, Captain America has no superhuman powers. He can’t fly, he can’t stick to walls, he can’t run at the speed of sound. But it’s these limitations that make him so fun to root for; he’s constantly up against world-ending villains yet (like the Dark Knight) he can use superior fighting ability and brilliant tactics to stop evil dead in its tracks. However, with no nifty powers – other than unlimited stamina and an indestructible shield – he doesn’t make a particularly interesting videogame character, and therefore hasn’t starred in as many games as Spidey or Bats.

That said, Cap’s game history still spans decades, even if the actual number of games pales to other heroes. In light of the new film (and accompanying videogame) finally releasing and directly leading into next year’s The Avengers movie, let’s see how far this Super Soldier has come...
