The invasion of video game sequels continues with Need for Speed, Beatles Rock band (there is rumour of a Lego Rock Band for Wii too) all sequels to the highly succesful original game format.

This reminds us to pre order as the holiday season will see hot titles sell out fast.

The highly anticipated shooter game, Modern Warfare 2,  about an international task force's
fight against a deadly enemy is the sixth in the war series. Like its
predecessor "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare," it breaks away from the
World War II setting of previous games and is set in modern times. It
will introduce a new mode of play, called Special Ops, in which players
can take on a series of independent missions that are separate from the
main story.
