Best summer games

Posted by Beverly K. Johnson On Friday, May 6th 2011 in Games

Usually during summer one goes to the sea, the mountains or does anything else besides play video games. However this summer proves to be interesting with several interesting games showing their heads.

From the return of notable gaming franchises ("inFamous 2," "Dungeon Siege III") to the debut of much-anticipated sequels ("F.E.A.R. III," "Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition"), expect no shortage of surprises this season. They will be weird, wild, bizarre and available on computer, console or even mobile phone.

Players may also get the chance to see Nintendo's next Wii video game system, rumored to have high-definition graphics, more power than the PlayStation 3 and a touchscreen controller, in June at industry trade show Electronic Entertainment Expo 2011.

Now as you are probably wondering what games are in store for gamers, let me give you a brief description of the ones who might prove to be the best.

Alice: Madness Returns (Electronic Arts, PC/PlayStation 3/Xbox 360) – Many of you may remember Alice and I’m not talking about the recent Alice in Wonderland crafted after the movie, but about the original maddening tale of Alice. Well she’s back and she’s as scary and crazy as ever. Picking up after the first title ended, Alice (here a mentally disturbed girl whose psychological troubles have created a warped and gonzo netherworld) must fight off quirky enemies while wandering through the surreal alternate reality.

Child of Eden (UbiSoft, PlayStation 3/Xbox 360) – Everybody heard of Guitar Hero, but what about a laser show? Child of Eden is a motion-sensing shooter where you blast scintillating shapes by waving your hand to create musical tones dynamically, hopes to prove there is life in the genre outside of "Just Dance."

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D (Nintendo, Nintendo 3DS) – It’s famous, it’s fantasy and it’s 3D. What more can one want? The fantasy role-playing classic has been updated to include 3-D special effects that will leave you breathless.

In addition to these we can also name NCAA Football 2012 and Deus Ex: Human Revolution. All in all it will be one interesting summer!
