 WWE SVR11 - Cover Stars
 Aug 16 10:22am EDT | X360, PSP, PS3, NinWii
|Press Release| Hot off the heels of Summerslam THQ gives word on its cover Superstars for WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2011, and here is the list of Superstars who made the cover.

USA, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kont, India, Taiwan
John Cena
Big Show
The Miz

Europe
Randy Orton
Undertaker
Sheamus

Hmmm, Europe seems like the odd duck, but that's only because they have their own cover. In wrestling logic their box has more star power. Plus it makes sense to have the European Sheamus on the box... no REGAL? The rest of the world get Cena, MIZ and the Big Show? Eh, Not so Hot... It's almost like the Face Boxcover vs. the Heels. Oh well THQ, its not like anyone buys the game because of its cover.
 Tony Hawk: Shred
 Aug 13 10:34am EDT | X360, NinWii
|PR:Activision| The latest installment in its esteemed Tony Hawk franchise, Tony Hawk: SHRED, is all-new Tony Hawk experience created for a younger audience. SHRED allows players to GO BIG and feel the exhilaration of supersized skate and snowboarding using the game’s innovative, motion-sensing board controller right at their feet. (Try not to cringe- maybe its been improved?)

Shred features an arcade style look and feel with larger-than-life moments and a veritable assortment of jaw-dropping tricks – enticing kids to get off the couch and into the action. Players will be on the deck mastering over-the-top tricks, massive drops, awesome grabs and super long grinds in no time.


In addition to skateboarding, aspiring snowboarders can jump on SHRED’s amazing board controller and go crazy in a completely new way – feeling the ultimate rush of shredding down the steep mountain peaks of Whistler, the French Alps and Beijing, China as they launch off huge kickers and pull off crazy spins, flips and grabs.

Tony Hawk: SHRED is in parallel development by two different studios: Robomodo for the Xbox 360; and by Buzz Monkey for Wii. The game will be available at retail this holiday season.

The 28-year-old Brazilian soccer hero is part of an iconic group of 17 stars who will adorn FIFA Soccer 11 worldwide. Kaka will be accompanied by stars from other teams in other countries in territory specific packaging when FIFA Soccer 11 is available in stores September 28 in North America and October 1 in Europe and Asia.
