2. BioShock (August 21, X360 & PC) Explore the dystopian world of Rapture,a failed city under the sea filled with rabid cult members, giant robots, mutants, and other frightening creatures. Uncover the mystery behind this creepy underwater chiller already hailed as a masterpiece of sci-fi and horror.

3. Super Mario Bros. Galaxy (November 12, Nintendo Wii) The little red man who started it all is headed it to outer space. Mario may be the sexiest bear ever to make it into video games, but he's got a whole new game plan on the Wii as he defies gravity and explores planets across the universe

7. Burnout Paradise (December 7, Playstation 3 & XBox 360) If you're not into driving between the lines then the latest addition to the blockbuster Burnout series is for you.
