Just Cause 2! Red Steel 2! Resonance!
It's a bit harsh on poor old Bats to describe Arkham Asylum as a "surprise winner" of the Best Game statuette at last week's BAFTAs, but in a sense it was, because Uncharted 2 has hoovered up every award going in the past few months, including our own Game of the Year for 2009.

Apparently new WiiWare title Muscle March "delivers an experience like no other".
