Review: El Shaddai a feast for the eyes
Based on an ancient religious text about a mortal sent from heaven to capture fallen angels, "El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron" is a treat for the eyes and ears, if not always the thumbs.
Review: Catherine a supernatural soap opera
Atlus' unusual "Catherine" tasks players with solving difficult puzzles while navigating a love triangle that's straight out of a soap opera, if the soap opera were directed by David Lynch and influenced by "Nightmare on Elm Street."

Review: Motorstorm Apocalypse
If you don't think too hard about the moral implications of its ridiculous premise, small sessions of "Motorstorm Apocalypse" are an optimal way to unwind after plodding around in "L.A. Noire's" police cruisers.
