ADVENTURE, Physics and Fashion. This week's Games Out feature a wide variety of themes for whatever your gaming needs.
Street Fighter X Tekken
Release date: October 23, 2012
Console: VITA

Finally there is a Street Fighter X Tekken for Playstation VITA. This crossover fighting game is a product of a partnership between Capcom's Street Fighter franchise and Namco's Tekken.
The core game play is similar to that of Street Fighter series, with a heavy emphasis on the tag team element of the game. Two new features of this game are the Pandora mode in which players can relinquish a partner and gain a temporary surge of power and Gem system where players can add up to three gems to their character in order to enhance their abilities and 'stats'.
The game is also available on other consoles such as PS3, XBox 360 and the PC, versions which were released earlier this year.

ESRB: E10+
Also know as Adventure time: The Game, this game is the first video game based on the weird but interesting cartoon network show Adventure Time. In the game Finn and Jake, the main characters, wake up to find their garbage missing.
They soon find out that the Ice King is using it to construct a garbage princess. The two set out on an adventure-filled journey through the land of Ooo to stop the Ice King and teach him a lesson.
The game will have a collector's edition for both DS and 3DS, include a steel-case cover of the Enchiridion (Finn's handbook), a booklet with Pendleton Ward's artwork, a poster of Ooo, and a stylus designed after Finn's sword.
