With Hanukah here and Christmas coming in a couple of weeks; what soon to be released games should you put on your want list? Why don’t we start with Blacksite: Area 51 (PS3, Teen) which is being released on December 10th.

You will be the leader of platoon of soldiers that will try and save earth from invading alien forces. The game play is fast and fierce as you and your men are the last time for mankind on earth. Heavily advertised lately on TV, it will be interesting to see if the hype matches the overall satisfaction of gamers.

Gamers will be able to fight in four different locations with 14 different fighters in their quest to become a title holder.
Do you want to showcase your driving skills? Then ask for one of these two upcoming releases. Indianapolis 500 Legends (Wii, Rating Pending) and MX vs. ATV: Untamed (X360, PS3, PS2, DS, PSP, Everyone) will be in stores the week of December 17th.
