Genres:Racing
Themes:Open world, Action, Sandbox
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer
Story:Evolve or die. For Paradise, we knew we had to change everything. Burnout was a killer arcade driving game, but for a new generation of hardware and connected player Burnout had to become something more ambitious. Closed tracks made way for an expansive, open city, and we seamlessly synced your friends into the action and let you loose on a heap of cool challenges that unsurprisingly rewarded you for driving like a lunatic. Hey, it’s us after all.Show more

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
Super Monkey Ball: Banana BlitzThe single-player puzzle levels in Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz have been designed to challenge gamers' skills like never before. For the first time in the Super Monkey Ball franchise, AiAi and his friends have the ability to jump when players flick the Nintendo Wii controller in an upward motion. The ability to jump has given game designers another dimension in which to expand the Super Monkey Ball gameplay experience and allows gamers a whole new way to interact with the franchise; this time in true three-dimensional fashion. The Party Games return with more variety than ever. An abundance of new Party Games have been designed to take advantage of the Wii controller in a multitude of ways. Gamers find themselves competing in a traditional game of ring toss, or even smacking pesky moles in a game of "Whack-a-Mole."

Full Auto
Full AutoFull Auto gives 'gun it' a whole new meaning. It's a driving auto combat game in the vein of burnout and twisted metal. You'll drive through various courses set all over the world in all sorts of different environments and blow stuff up. You'll go from level to level completing various objectives and trying to get not only a great destruction score but first place to the finish line. If you’re unlucky enough to get blown up by someone, you can always ‘un-wreck’ and turn back the clock to get a second chance and turn the tables. When you’re done wrecking the AI, you can take the road war onto Xbox live where you can race and blowup up to 8 opponents.
