Just a little FYI for all you gamers out there. Electronic Arts (EA) announced the game lineup they would be presenting at the upcoming E3 to be held in Los Angeles next week. Without further ado, here’s the list of new games (and descriptions provided by EA press release):

ARMY OF TWO™: THE 40^th DAY

The ultimate two-man private military team of Salem and Rios return in ARMY OF TWO: THE 40^th DAY, where they must fight to survive a carefully orchestrated series of catastrophes that are dragging the city of Shanghai to the brink of disaster. The game has been built from the ground up with a focus on an incredible cooperative experience. A bigger playbook of features and a new arsenal of co-op moves are available to both players to perform at any time, opening up fresh strategies and choices. The result is a bigger, deeper, more organic and immersive co-op experience that lets players put their best two-man tactics to use whenever and wherever they want.

EA’s given me a reason to consider picking up the upcoming “Need for Speed Undercover” action racing game -  the title will be featuring Maggie Q as the lead character in several live-action sequences for the story line. Don’t remember Maggie Q? She starred in Mission Impossible III and Live Free or Die Hard and well yeah.. just do a Google image search on her.

Need for Speed Undercover will hit the U.S. stores on Nov. 18th and European stores on Nov. 21st and will be available for Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo DS, PSP, PC, and mobile platforms.
