New games in the rest of the year:Part 2

Hi guys, before we get started could I just thank all of you who looked at part 1 of this feature. I really appreciate the support.
     Right lets get into things.

Up first in the spotlight is Dust 514, I have the privildge of playing the beta for this game. The first thing that strikes you is the scale of what is happneing. The maps are massive about on par with some of the larger maps on BF3. No the thing that is massive in this game is the MMO side of it. If any of you have ever played runescape then you will know just how many itams are in the game. Think of the Grand Exchange in that game but fill it with alien tech and guns. One of the creaters behind the game said it would take 7 years to full max out the leveling system. This is size like we have never seen before, but can they get all of that out of the PS3 without any hicups on the way?
Now I will be taking about Need for Speed Most Wanted, I'm sure most of you have heard of the first one on the PS2, well this game is nothing to do with that game. It is the same principle with you aiming to be the most wanted, but now you are aiming to be the most wanted among you friends. Yes this is taking the EA autolog system and running with it. For me this game could be the best driving game of 2012 but they need to pull it of correctly. My main two problems with it are, what if you don't have internet? What if you don't have any PSN/Xbox Live friends? Or if you do but non of them have got the game? Will it just through you in with aload of strangers who could be some of the best in the world? I know not the answers to these questions, but it really could be the sleeper driving game of 2012.

As you may know I loved the multiplayer of Battlefield 3 and this game looks to be very similar the obvious contection is the Frostbite 2 engine. I have seen abit of the beta footage that recently took place for all Xbox Live users and it looked to be somewhere between BF and COD so this could be an interesting game to look out for. Obviously it won't re-define the genre like COD 4 did but it might be an interesting game to play come the release.
Last but not least Little Big Planet Karting, what sort of feature of big games without an entry from sackboy. This game looks to be the sort of game that not many people will play but will be one of the brilliant karters on PS3. As anyone who has played LBP or LBP2 will know that the customisation is the biggest point of the game, this feature looks not to have been lost here. You can make your own tracks,carts and much more that has yet to be announced. I personly loved Mario Kart and this game looks to have the brilliant functions of a karter. Deffinitly one to watch.
Right that about sums up the final part of this feature on games coming out before christmas.
I hope have liked the feature if you are looking to get any of the games I would love to hear about it in the comments section. You can also follow me/message me on twitter at https://twitter.com/TheGamesCritic
For now but never the end.
