The longest running franchise on PlayStation is making a comeback in February, 2011 and it seems better than ever before.
The only car combat game on this list, Twisted Metal, is the latest edition in the franchise and seeks to take the game beyond traditional car-blowing. The game will be seeking to engage the online community in a progressive gameplay in a persistent environment. The game is to be equipped with unique weapons and vehicles in a huge destructible setting. With the game encouraging factions and turf wars for cooperative gameplay, the pleasure of blowing up vehicles is sure to be more than ever before.
14. Bulletstorm (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
If you think of first person shooters and think of mayhem, Bulletstorm is the game for you.
The game is not just about killing, how you get to the act of killing is also important. The more imaginative and innovative you are, the more points you get. These points can be spent at upgrade stations to improve the lethality of your abilities, weapons, and ammunition. The game encourages the player to explore and innovate to hone the art of killing. Bulletstorm is expected to be a lot of fun and a lot different from the precision and stealth type of shooter games. Planned release is February 25, 2011.
15. Max Payne 3 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
The third installment of the Rockstar games franchise, Max Payne, is planned to be released in Q1, 2011.
Max Payne 3 is the sequel to the earlier installment and takes place 12 years after the events that took place in Max Payne 2. The looks and style of the main character has changed a lot. He is shown in new attire where he is bald and he has grown beard. The game will be plotted in Brazil where Max is working for a private security company. Given the reputation of Rockstar games and Max Payne series, the expectations from this game are pretty high.
16. Dead Space 2 (PC, PS3, Xbox 360)
The first installment of this Sci-fi shooter-horror-survival genre game, Dead Space, was an absolute best game of the genre and Dead Space 2 is expected to perform much better.
The game carries forward where it left in the earlier game, with the main character, Isaac Clarke, still trying to find answers while fighting for survival. There are new weapons to blow up the new enemies and new puzzles to solve. There is a lot of action coming your way in the grim environment of Dead Space 2 in January 2011.
