Devil May Cry 4

Capcom/PS3, Xbox 360, PC

With all the mythology built up over three gorgeous sequels, the Devil May Cry series would make a great anime show, as it has enough monster-killing, over-the-top soap opera dialogue, and nonstop flashing lights to sate your inner Japanese kid. DMC 4 realizes the potential of the latest systems, especially the ĂĽberpowerful PS3.

Burnout Paradise

EA Criterion/PS3, Xbox 360

NASCAR fans will tell you they watch races for the strategy and rivalries, but they’re liars—what they’re really out for is the wrecks.
