When I think of a bad ass mad dog killer in the comic book world, a couple names come up. Deadpool, The Joker, Carnage. I like to play the odds and say that Frank Castle, also known as The Punisher, is the baddest of all. Developer Zen Studios decided to give a shot at making you feel like The Punisher dishing out some hardcore justice with his arsenal of weapons with the PSN game The Punisher: No Mercy.

I like me a good modern western movie. Tombstone, The Quick and the Dead, 3:10 to Yuma are all fantastic movies. Call Of Juarez: Bound in Blood is a prequel to the original game and feels like it could have been a good western flick. The story starts off with the main characters Thomas and Ray McCall in the civil war fighting for the south. Certain events happen and they end up deserting their regimen to save their home. After that, they set out find wealth and riches to rebuild their home from the war. Of course the commanding officer doesn't like the fact they abandoned their posts declares that he will hunt them down for however long it takes. After a few year of causing chaos in the wild west, the McCall brothers end up running into a leader of some Mexican bandits named Juan with his lovely woman Marisa by his side that talks of the treasure of Cortez. The McCall's get caught up in this legend of the great treasure and the lovely Marisa and of course craziness ensues.

I am not going to start out by comparing this game to inFAMOUS since it has been done to death. Instead, I will get down to the review at hand.

Prototype starts off with you waking up with no memory of who you are or what you are. The city is overrun with infected people and mutated monsters by some virus with the military trying to fight back to keep the city contained The opening level is sort of a tease and not in a good way. You run through the streets of NYC moping up the military with your Venom-like abilities. Once you get to a checkpoint, the game throws you back to the beginning of his story. In essence, the 1st level is a showcase of what you will be able to do once you unlock/buy all your upgrades. To me that was a waste of time.

A show of hands if bustin' makes you feel good....no not that kind of bustin' sicko, the kind of bustin' that only Ray, Egon, Peter and Winston can do. Ghostbusters has been a long time in the making and after all the wait with this game, we finally get a movie game that actually is good (Wolverine doesn't count since the movie sucked and the game was made before the movie was announced).

We all know the DS has a ton of great RPG's to play. Suikoden Tierkreis is one of the new entries into the great RPG's on the DS. I dare say that it's in my favorite RPG this year on a handheld device.

With all the hype surrounding Killzone 2 and the disappointment I had when I blind purchased the game, another game has come to fruition with the PS3 exclusive title.

inFAMOUS is a new game by Sucker Punch who brought all those wonderful Sly Cooper games to the Playstation. The game is about a bike messenger named Cole who gets caught in a electric blast while delivering a package wiping out 10,000+ people in the  city with it. You somehow survive the blast and gain super powers of the electric kind. The story follows you on your journey to find out who set off the bomb and why. Along the way you discover how to use your powers more effectively and make decisions along the way of if you want to help the city or help yourself.
