Gamescom 2010's Best Games

Our pick of the titles that stood out at the German games convention.

Motorstorm: Apocalypse - PS3

3D technology is seeping into every aspect of modern entertainment, be it TV, film or games. For the latter, the technology seems to have gone largely wasted; a mere gimmick that developers are looking to capitalise on. Motorstorm: Apocalypse is different. As players take to the streets of The City during the midst of a violent earthquake, buildings, bridges and burning debris will fall mere inches from the player's face. It makes for the kind of 'edge of your seat gaming' that games have been trying to achieve for decades. While we only saw one track from one game mode, Apocalypse got our pulses racing like nothing else at gamescom.
