Four years ago id Software unveiled the id Tech 5 engine and a new game to go along with it--Rage. After countless trade shows and public demonstrations, it's now time for fans to get behind the wheel of this post-apocalyptic action game. Just like many other titles that feature the popular setting, players assume the role of someone who has lost their memory and woken up in an unfamiliar world. While you'll spend a good amount of time behind the trigger of a gun in Rage, players will also get to thrash ATVs around the outback as driving plays a big part of the game.
If you're more after a game that's likely to get you fired-up and scream out words that are inappropriate to say in front of your mother, then Dark Souls is the game for you. This is the sequel to 2009's blood-boiling Demon's Souls, which was lauded by fans and critics alike for its unique world, great combat mechanics, and brutally difficult gameplay. Dark Souls is a game that won't be for everyone, but if you get a kick out of beating a boss after countless restarts then this is one you'll probably want to check out.
The final game worthy of a mention that will arrive in Australia this week is NBA 2K12. This year 2K Sports hopes to settle the "who is the greatest basketballer" debate between fans, with the addition of a new mode called NBA's Greatest. Here you'll be able to choose from 15 NBA legends and pit them against each other. If you pre-ordered NBA 2K12 from EB Games you'll also be able to choose one of three cover athlete slicks for your game.
