After Killzone 2, the next big Playstation 3 exclusive game is Infamous. The open-world superhero game is shaping up nicely.

The classic boxing series is back after a 15-year absence. Even after the longer hiatus, Punch-Out!! on the Nintendo Wii still maintain its tip-top form of timing-based intense fights.
