We're still not done with Februarys games yet but heads up we have some more games coming out this Month!
Tomb Raider 05/03/13
We were set to see the return of one of gamings most iconic (and sexiest) characters, Lara Croft, with the reboot of her series Tomb Raider this week, but as it turns out the street date was broken and the game came out late last week instead! This reboot sees a new Lara than what we have come to know in the past, being stranded on a hazardous island after a shipwreck on one of her first expeditions. Lara must adapt and mature to survive the harsh conditions, vicious hunters and hungry canibals.

Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 07/03/13
The biggest one for us here for this month BY FAR, is Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3. Everyone here at Done Did It played the previous installment in the series Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 relentlessly, non-stop, for weeks at a time. With only one or two achievements left on this, I (Welsh) will be playing the hell out of it one more time before I move onto the next one. This fighting game allows you to take all the greatest Naruto characters and pit them against one another, special moves and abilities included! The series is renown for it's attack-cut-scenes and it's ability to tell the stories of the manga and anime in a whole new format.

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2 15/03/13
Sniper: Ghost Warrior was a game praised for its realistic bullet physics and stealth game mechanics, but it fell short on story and was overall very repetivive. The sequel will once again follow a single marksman, and play out a series of set piece levels with targets to mark and (obviously) hit.
The game was meant to have been released back in August 2012, but in July it was pushed back to Janurary 2013, and then once again to put it back until this week. This game isn't particularly on our horizons, as no one here at Done Did were interested in the first iteration either. Nonetheless it will be interesting to see if this game, from a relatively small developer at that, can fix it's errors from before and make a stronger game.

Gears of War: Judgement 19/03/13
Surpisingly not the most important release to us, is the Gears of War prequel game Gears of War: Judgement. The game takes place before the events of the Gears series, and would follow Baird and Cole as the protagonists. The original series developer Epic Games have taken more of a back seat for this game, letting co-developer People Can Fly take care of it. People Can Fly have had relatively few releases in the last few years, more commonly known for their work porting the original Gears of War to the PC, some extra development work on Gears of War 2, and the AMAZING game Bulletstorm back in 2011. The multiplayer of the game has been leaked already and the game itself looks amazing. The hype has been small but the game looks like it will definitely deliver on another "Epic" Gears game.

AMC's The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct 20/03/13
The Walking Dead is almost a fairytale of a Zombie story. What started as a series of graphic novels has transformed into a world wide hit tv series and a 10/10 downloadable game. Telltale games The Walking Dead captured our hearts and minds last year with their game based off of the comics, recieving tremendous and surprising success for a point and click story game. Survival Instinct will be more in line with the TV series than the comics though, the game following Southern brothers Daryl and Merle on their journey to Atlanta during the early days of the Zombie apocolypse. Both actors will be reprising their roles from the show for the game.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14 28/03/13
Right on schedule, the next in a long line of Golfing simulators Tiger Woods PGA Tour 14, takes everything from the last installments and expands in a very very miniscule way. The new features include the Legends of the Majors mode, which allows the player to compete in all notable tournaments from the 1930's through to today. Along with a few customization options that have been added though, there's not much new here. If you like the previous Tiger Woods games odds are you'll enjoy this one, however if you have only played them casually like us, you'll only really find interest in the new ways you can make your player swing ridiculously.

Hitman HD Trilogy 31/03/13
VERY EXCITED FOR THIS ONE! It doesn't carry as much weight or have as much hype as any of the other releases this week, but it is definately one that I look forward to even just for sentimental value. The Hitman series is a ridiculous achievement in games, each game has had it's own cult following regardless of what critics or mainstream gamers may feel. After the release of Hitman Absolution, gamers can now return comfortably to some of the breakthrough hits of the series. Hitman 2: Silent Assasain, Hitman: Contracts and Hitman: Blood Money have all been remastered in HD and given full achievement support across all games. Bundles like this only come along so often, this is definately one to look at.
