1. Dead or Alive: Dimensions
For: Nintendo 3DS
From: Tecmo Koei,

Don’t be surprised to see this portable martial arts scrapper’s 3D special effects literally burst from your Nintendo 3DS’ screen. But even cooler than watching doe-eyed damsels come flying at your eyes, are replay-boosting extras like online multiplayer and tag-team support.

2. Child Of Eden
For: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
From: Rockstar Games, ea.com
A trippy, motion-sensing sequel to psychedelic shooter Rez that’s as much laser show as game, letting you generate mind-expanding musical notes by blasting scintillating geometric shapes with the wave of a hand.

3. Operation Flashpoint: Red River
For: PlayStation 3, Xbox 360
From: Codemasters, codemasters.com
Think tense and gritty tactical desert combat that’s a must-play in co-op mode, but suffers from confusing goals, scattershot AI and campy voice-acting during single-player campaigns. Love the machinegun-patter dialogue, though.

4. Handycam HDR-PJ50V
