Remember last month when it was reported that a 16-year-old kid shot his parents because they took away his Halo 3? Mmm hmm. Here's a follow-up to that. Daniel Petric has finally been convicted of his crimes.

Gotcha! After waiting for its English release on tenterhooks, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney finally makes its debut in the Western shores, leaving the game open to public scrutiny. Will Apollo Justice prove itself to be a worthy successor to the Ace Attorney title, once held by former star defense attorney Phoenix Wright? Do read about the verdict in the full article.

Have you been good for this holiday season? Well, whether you were naughty or nice, Ubisoft has the game for you. Whether you're into assassins, solving murder cases or maybe even taking good care of your pets, Ubisoft is coming to town.

One of their most highly anticipated games for the season, Assassin's Creed, will be coming in this November for the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3, with the PC version coming in early next year. It won't be in time for Christmas, but maybe it'll make a deadly romantic Valentine's gift.

Beowulf (360, PS3, PSP, PC), the video game based on Robert Zemecki's new movie of the same name, will also be arriving this November, just in time for the movie. Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (PS3, 360, PC) has been delayed from its holiday release date and will instead be arriving next year. The Wii's Brothers in Arms: Road to Hill 30 will be arriving this December though. Naruto: Rise of a Ninja for the Xbox 360 will be arriving this October.

So you'd better watch out, and you'd better not cry. You'd better not pout, and we'll tell you why. Gamers from all over get a game to play over the holidays from Ubisoft:

• Blazing Angels 2: Secret Missions of WWII (PS3)
• CSI: Crime Scene Investigation Hard Evidence (360, Wii)
• Haze (PS3)
• Heroes of Might and Magic V: Tribes of the East (PC)
• Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 (Wii, Nintendo DS)
• Petz (PS2, PC, Wii)
• Imagine (PC, DS)
• My Coach (DS, Wii)
• Cranium Kabookii (Wii)
• Chessmaster (Wii, PC)

So while Ubisoft may not know whether you're sleeping or whether you're awake, it has a great line up for everybody (young and old, naughty and nice) this holiday season.
