The Gaming To Be Had February 22-28

This week, the noire thriller Heavy Rain arrives for the PlayStation 3. Featuring incredibly advanced graphics, a mature storyline and numerous character actors, all of whom can die mid-game, changing the outcome of the story, Heavy Rain is being lauded with praise as it approaches its February 23 release date in North America.

In addition, PC gamers will get to play Napoleon: Total War, the follow-up to our 2009 Strategy Game of the Year winner, Empire: Total War and Xbox 360 gamers will have the ability to play through Risen‘s RPG story.

Only one major cross-platform release comes this week in Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing, a Mario-Kart like game that is surprisingly fun and highly accessible.
