Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction is the fifth installment in the Splinter Cell video game series. Splinter Cell: Conviction introduces a number of new gameplay features to the series, one of which is the "Mark and Execute" feature, which allows the player to mark specific targets, such as enemies or objects, and shoot them when they burst through a door or window. The player can choose to prioritize these targets, so that, for example, he could distract one guard by shooting out a light in his vicinity and then take out another guard. Another new feature is the "Last Known Position", which occurs when the player breaks the line of sight of an alerted guard. This creates a visual silhouette of where the guard thinks Sam is, allowing the player to strategically flank his enemies. Main target subjects can use the player's abilities against them. The player can be taken hostage by the subject. If this happens in co-op mode, the hostage's partner can neutralize the subject by any means necessary, possibly even by lethal means.

Play with your favorite characters: Fight as Scott Pilgrim, Ramona Flowers, Stephen Stills, Kim Pine or as one surprise character, each with their own signature moves and attacks. Team up with your friends on the same console and combine your skills in over-the-top super co-op attacks for more devastation. Not only can you help your friends by reviving their characters or sharing health and coins, but also compete with them in subspace mini-games to earn more experience, coins, and lives. Experience alternate game endings depending on the character you choose. Adventures in awesome eight-bit: Enjoy old-school graphic design with next-gen HD technology. The eight-bit retro-gaming animations are from the world-famous Pixel Artist Paul Robertson. More than 30 original music tracks by chiptune heroes Anamanaguchi rock the game and can be unlocked and collected for later enjoyment. The game features exclusive retro cut scenes and art by Bryan Lee O'Malley, Scott Pilgrim creator. Fight for love: Defeat Ramona's seven ex-boyfriends and their weird hordes of hipsters, emos, paparazzi, aliens, flying piggy banks (yes, flying piggy banks!), and many others. Progress by earning trophies that will allow your character to level up and learn numerous deadly fighting moves. Earn coins during your journey and exchange them in shops for food or snacks that increase your strength, speed, defense and will power.

Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Game is a side-scrolling beat 'em up game based on the Scott Pilgrim series of graphic novels by Bryan Lee O'Malley, coinciding with the movie, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. It is being published by Ubisoft and developed by Ubisoft Montreal with Ubisoft Chengdu. The game was first announced at Comic Con 2009 in July 2009. Loosely following the plot of the graphic novels, up to four players can play as Scott Pilgrim, Ramona Flowers, Kim Pine or Stephen Stills, who must battle through several levels in order to defeat Ramona's seven evil exes. Characters have their own individual movesets, which can be expanded upon by gaining enough experience, and are also able to use weapons and summon Knives Chau to assist them. During co-operative play, certain actions can be performed such as simultaneously taunting to defeat enemies or reviving fallen comrades before they lose a life. Defeating enemies earns coins (stylized Canadian currency) which can be spent on health items or attribute boosts. Players can also enter Subspace areas which act as bonus areas where extra coins can be earned. There is also a cheat code that, when entered on the title screen, will unlock a zombie survival mode.
