If you grew up in the ’70s, electronic games were a phenomenon. Atari launched the convenience and affordability of home gaming. Now it really feels like you’re actually in the game. 2009 is proving to be one of the best years for console gaming. It’s really something to look forward to when you have free time.

You can reserve games weeks before their release date. Get the game first and you will always be ahead of your friends. Nintendo DS has been a huge success in portable gaming. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is out now for Nintendo DS and gives Huang Lee a simple mission after his father’s murder: deliver an ancient sword to his Uncle Kenny to ensure his family retains control of the Triad gangs of Liberty City.

Legends of Wrestlemania is now available on Xbox and Playstation. The leading sports entertainment video game experience embraces its colorful roots to deliver the definitive WWE elements of the 1980s and 1990s. The game promotes a new grapples-based combo combat system.[4][7] Unlike the SmackDown series, Legends of WrestleMania focuses more on arcade style gameplay (similar to WWF WrestleFest) with only the D-pad (or left analog stick) and four face buttons required on the gamepad.

If you’re just getting into gaming, then you’re in for a treat. You can’t go wrong on birthdays and Christmas. There is always something new on the market for the latest consoles. Enjoy your game.
