• Shaun White Snowboarding - PS3
• Shaun White (aka The Flying Tomato) is a world-renowned snowboard/skateboard superstar, so it was only a matter of time before he finally got his own video game following in the footsteps of Tony Hawk. THE BOTTOM LINE: Shaun White's Snowboarding is a fun, open-ended snowboarding simulation that allows you to ride different mountains, all the while catc

• Prince of Persia - PS3
• I was never a huge fan of the original Prince of Persia games, but when the series was reborn in 2003's The Sands of Time, I quickly became a fanboy.

You'll want to go incognito in order to hide the fact you're buying the worst installment in this long-running racing series. Beyond its brassy sense of the game wrecks years of solid r

• Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe - PS3
• Check your brain at the door and you'll enjoy this campy, ludicrously over-the-top fighter. THE BOTTOM LINE: Though far from a technical fighting game, Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe exceeds expectations by delivering a solidly enjoyable casual fighter. The Mature-rated gore is missed, but the core combat here feels more confident and energetic than it h
