QJ.NET's On Shelves This Week - Image 1

Still haven't figured out what to give away for Christmas? If last week's line-up wasn't enough to help you decide, this week is packing some top tier first-person shooters you can share to Sony PlayStation 3 owners. Epic Games' fast-paced and action-packed Unreal Tournament 3 is coming to the PS3, while Valve Corporation's much loved collection of FPS goodness inside The Orange Box will also be ported to Sony's console.

Unreal Tournament 3 by Epic Games - Image 1Midway joins the blood-fest of shooters with BlackSite: Area 51. On the other hand, Sega's explosive real-time strategy title Universe at War: Earth Assault developed by Petroglyph should keep PC gamers occupied. The Nintendo Wii stays on the road with a couple of racing games and a good dose of golf, while the Microsoft Xbox 360 gets a piece of hardcourt action.

BlackSite: Area 51. Take the role of a military veteran who sets out to uncover the secrets of the government's shady facility, Area 51, and lead your squad in a mission to save the world from a viral outbreak.
