CITY OF VILLAINS
Be careful who you give this to, because you're basically telling them: Hey, you're evil. And if they are evil, understand that this online RPG will teach them how to rob banks, build lairs, gain evil powers and enslave the good. $49.99
THE MATRIX: PATH OF NEO
At last, a Matrix game that lets players be Neo, and follows the course of all three movies. A good choice for inexperienced gamers, because after all, Neo is pretty much invincible, so how hard can it be? $49.99
WE LOVE KATAMARI
Here's a game for the person who may not have everything, but wants everything. In a bizarre blend of surrealism and astrophysics, players control a sticky ball that gloms up everything it touches-pets, cars, the Eiffel Tower-and turns into stars. $29.99
SERIOUS SAM II
Do you get the feeling that most first-person shooters are designed for ex-military types who dig bunkers under their backyards?
Here's an FPS for your so-called normal friends-it's bright, colorful and full of loopy humor. $29.99
F.E.A.R. (FIRST ENCOUNTER ASSAULT RECON)
For a change of pace from all that holiday good cheer, give the gift of violence. F.E.A.R. is a first-person shooter that amps up the chills so high that it even gaye our general manager the creeps. Rated M, for Must Not Let Parents See lt. $49.99
FATAL FRAME III: THE TORMENTED
Grown men (me) have been known to flee the room in tears when playing Fatal Frame. And Fatal Frame iii will probably be three times as scary.
We've all got friends who boast they can take anything. Well, give them this and a pair of rubber underpants. $49.99
