We'd teleport all of you to Tokyo to enjoy this year's TGS with us, but since we can't, experience the shows most game-filled booth in this new video straight from Japan...
For all you gaming addicts looking for a fix, check out these treats:
Opoona - Wii
A very unusual little game for the Wii that combines community and relationship-building elements with a traditional RPG - a bit like, say, Animal Crossing but with a proper adventure to work through. Even better is the way it uses the Wiis Remote and Nunchuck, allowing you to move with the analog stick and battle by swinging the remote.
Crazi Taxi: Fare Wars - PSP
We reckon this is just about old enough now

For all the fans of rolling ball puzzle and mythology games, we checked out the next PSP game, Fading Shadows. There are 50 levels you guide a small orb through with a beam of light. The goal is to take the ball from the dark underworld to a happy air world. You not only direct the light, but it can be focused to have a stronger pull on the orb or spread to avoid becoming too hot.
We admit it: when we first heard about plans for a Family Guy game, we cringed. And when we heard that it would be developed by High Voltage, creator of the craptacular Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, our testicles retracted into our bodies so fast that the impact collapsed our lungs. Don't get us wrong - we like Family Guy, but games like this tend to be horrible.
Now that we've played it, however, it looks like our fears were unfounded. Not only is Family Guy shaping up to be a good time,
The last outing for Marvel's fab four, published by Activision, not 2K Games, was a mediocre affair with predictable button-bashing action that barely tested your skills. Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer benefits from PS3's bolder, crisper graphics, while the gameplay's been enhanced to test your wit as well as your rapid-finger
Racers, do you spend your weekends in the parking lot of In-N-Out Burger, revealing your cars innards to your fellow gearheads? Do you marvel at the guy whos ruined his credit score by buying a valve contraption to turn his 92 Civic into a wheel-disintegrating metallic cheetah? Do you hate the guy who got a Viper for his Sweet 16 MTV celebration-of-greed party? The jerkwad who barks horsepower threats and brags about how his dad is CEO of Hot Dog on a
Who doesn't love blowing stuff up? Gamers know firsthand the satisfaction of marching up to the bad guy's front door and blasting it into the ground - and that's the feeling Sony Online is hoping to duplicate with Field Commander.
Instead of controlling one soldier, or even a squad of crack troops youre in command of an entire army thats tasked with stopping an evil organization from taking over the world (and no, its not Cobra). Youll have nearly 20 different types of units, each with
The PSP's been out for more than a year now, and there's still no back-and-forth, military strategy game for us bloodthirsty dictators to test out. Well, if you can hang on just a few more weeks, chances are the turn-based action of Field Commander will sooth your battle-ready senses.
The basics are well covered. You start with so many units (in ground, air and sea varieties), the bad guy has a similar army in the wings and then you start pummeling each other until the smoke finally clears.
