GOD OF WAR 2

Review, Ign.com:

God of War II may in fact be the best action game ever made. It outdoes the original God of War in every way, even if only by a tiny bit as the first was so good to begin with. It's an evolutionary step rather than a revolutionary leap, but it has basically perfected the formula that the original set up. If you own a PlayStation 2 (or PS3) and don't mind excessive amounts of blood, you absolutely must play this game. If you don't own a PS2, find someone who does and sit yourself down in front of their TV for 12 or so hours as you'll otherwise be missing out on one of gaming's most intense and engaging experiences available.

Need for speed carbon

Need for Speed Carbon takes place in a fictitious city that's been taken over by a swarm of racing gangs. You apparently were the top dog for some time before "that fateful night." During a city race, which involved the seemingly illegal transportation of goods, all of the cars in your racing pod were electronically zapped by a government special ops team. They used an EMP-type gun that stopped all functionality in each car, except yours. You made it out alive. Then, according to the story, you skip town. When you return, a significant period of time later, the city has changed. Filling the vacuum you left, a gaggle of gangs have grabbed territories across the city. Now that you're back, your job is to win those territories over one by one until the entire place it yours again.
