The only game in which you actually get to go insane. Sweet.

Valkyrie Profile for the Sony PlayStation was one of the most original, most unorthodox roleplaying games of all time. Now, anyone who missed it the first time around as a second chance to experience it in this PSP port.

Heroes of the Pacific is a simulator that puts you in the cockpit of the fighting planes that defeated the Japanese in the Pacific theater and brought peace to the world. You get to fly 36 WWII aircraft against intelligent opponents during Midway, the Coral Sea, Wake Island and Guadalcana.

A smart and sexy video game, that takes business simulation games to a whole new level of fun. With Playboy: The Mansion you take the role of “Hef” and your duty is to keep your empire trough a series of missions around the Mansion aided by no other one than the Bunnies.

Rondo of Swords was distributed by Atlus in 2008. It’s yet another DS strategy role-playing game, as if there aren’t enough on Nintendo’s handheld. While the game is solid, I’m not sure it does enough different to be anything more than mediocre.

For those that have not seen this series, Afro Samurai for the Xbox 360 can still be a lot of fun. Mix some martial arts in with some extremely funny commentary from your characters and combine in the voice of Samuel L. Jackson - well, you can’t lose.

Genjie: Days of the Blade is a fantasy action-adventure type of game which was released by SCEA as a follow up to Genjie: The Dawn of the Samurai. Unfortunately, while Days of the Blade excels in graphics feature; its gameplay however doesn’t give any improvement of the first game.
