Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe, Tomb Raider: Underworld, Left 4 Dead and The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon.
Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe
Well now you can find out for yourself. Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe pits characters from both popular series against each other, as the player chooses their side and battles it out as their favourite character.
Features include single player mode, which allows you to complete a ‘storyline’ with a chosen character, two player mode or arcade mode, where you test your skills against an opponent and online capabilities, to take the fight worldwide.
“ If the idea of beating the hell out of Liu Kang with Lex Luthor (or vice versa) appeals to you and you don't mind going online for serious competition, you'll find a satisfying fighting game in this strange but enjoyable crossover.”
The game is available on PS3 and Xbox 360, with prices ranging up to £39.99.
But where the game’s predecessors may have failed in providing a better gaming atmosphere for players, Underworld more than makes up for it. New improvements include, being able to fire a gun whilst hanging off a cliff face, free climbing ability and a greater level of exploration.
“The aim with Tomb Raider: Underworld is to create a truly immersive, truly living Tomb Raider universe.”
The game is available on the DS, PC, PS3, Wii and Xbox 320, with prices ranging from £27.99 to £39.99.
The journey to safety will take you through a wide range of environments and with the added treat of boss monsters to fight, such as Boomers, who projectile vomit into your face and then explode, the zombie genre is certainly on its way to becoming popular again.
“Lone gunmen who run off into the dark by themselves are going to get ripped to pieces quicker than you can say 'chicken bucket meal'.”
The game is available on the PC and Xbox 360, with prices ranging from £29.99 to £44.99.
Though some fans may not have been enchanted by this trilogy, Dawn of the Dragon promises players unmatched visuals, a second player co-op mode and a range of elemental powers at a player’s disposal.
“On the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, Dawn of the Dragon is gorgeous”
The game is available on DS, PS2, PS3, Wii and Xbox 360, with prices ranging from £29.99 to 39.99.
Other notable releases include:
Pokémon Ranger 2: Shadows of Almia on the DS. RRP £27.99 Rock band 2 on the Xbox 360. RRP £44.99.

News In Brief
| Research grants announcedKingston University last week received a 5.3% increase in its government grant for research and teaching. The Higher Education Funding Council for England announced that Kingston would receive £73.3m in 2009/10. The average national increase was 4%, while a number of universities, including the London School of Economics, saw their funding reduced. |
| Kingston student named Microsoft 'Intern of the Year'A Kingston student won Microsoft’s 'Intern of the Year' award after a process he created was used by the computer giant’s worldwide sales force. George Avlastimovas, a Business Information Technology student, came up with a new form for staff requesting bonuses while on a placement as part of his course. He said that the internship gave him “a fantastic opportunity to shape and mould the role to suit my skills.” |
| Bring your own mugA money saving scheme has been extended to the Penryhn Road campus. Lecturers and students who bring their own mug to the Picton Room will receive a 5p discount off any hot drink. The scheme, already trialling at Kingston Hill, was introduced in a bid to encourage sustainability and cut back on packaging produced by the university. If successful, it will be extended to all the foodstores. |
| Cheeky cat in hallsGorgeous George the cat is much loved and petted by the residents and staff at Middle Mill Halls, but, his cheeky antics have got him into trouble. He can often be found pacing the car park meowing at passers by, lounging in reception or nipping into halls for extra strokes. However, halls management are now concerned that this felicitous feline is breaching the licence and have put up a sign asking students to prevent him sneaking into bedrooms and becoming overfed. |
