SOCOM 4: U.S. Navy Seals This PS3 exclusive third-person shooter from Zipper Entertainment is very middle-of-the-road: You lead a team of highly trained soldiers into somewhere for some reason. It all gets pretty muddled pretty quickly, needless to say, and there are betrayals, huge firefights and stealth missions, but nothing to write home about. If you absolutely cannot get enough third-person shooters, check this title out. If you want a little something new, or even some improvements on the old, pass on this one. 5.5 out of 10   Dungeon Siege 3 DS3 is a dungeon crawler from Obsidian and Square Enix. You hack, slash, and magic your way through caves, towns and castles while gaining levels, hoarding weapons and armor and grabbing loot. It’s your average action/role-playing game, but it’s done well. I had fun with this game; my sole gripe was that it only took ten hours to beat. Not as good as the Dragon Age series, but still definitely worth checking out. 7.5 out of 10   Hunted: The Demon’s Forge Shit sandwich. 3 out of 10   F.E.A.R. 3 A first-person shooter from Day 1 Studios, this game is a direct sequel to 2009’s “F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin.” Quite simply, I had fun with this game. The story is pretty goofy, and some of the AI is questionable, but I still had a good time playing through this. Also helping its case: This game supports split-screen gaming (remember what that is?). Fast-paced, cool set pieces and a few defining touches (like slow motion) really keep this game moving in the right direction. The multiplayer section was addicting, too. Fun game for FPS fans; check it out. 8 out of 10
