Dragon Age 2 — every BioWare game, for that matter — should come with a warning sticker that gravely cautions the buyer about the harmful effects of reduced sunlight exposure and damaged relationships due to playing the game too much.
Video Blips:
• Hawke and his band of merry adventurers pile on the brutality in Dragon Age 2. The game looks fantastic, but is Hawke's raven-black "windswept angsty teen" hairdo really necessary? [GameTrailers]
Continue after the break for the cold, calculating Katherine Marlowe in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception, collectables and unlockables galore in Crysis 2's multiplayer, and the introduction of the lithe Jill Valentine in Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds.
• Like Max Payne's Nicole Horne, Katherine Marlowe hides venom beneath a veneer of deadly calm in Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception. Or maybe it was a total giveaway after she demonstrated her knife-handling skills so effectively.

• Dog tags, perks, and challenges are just some of the things to collect and unlock in Crysis 2's multiplayer. But no matter the level of extracurricular activities, there's always time for a hearty teabagging session. It's the proper thing to do, after all.

• Some people have questioned the suggestive new look of Resident Evil's Jill Valentine in Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, but I think it's fine. Hey, when you're getting your ass kicked by an acrobatic zombie hunter, it's difficult to complain, right?
