OXCGN takes a look at Vin Diesel's two big games for 2009 and asks where they will succeed or why they could fail. Will Chronicles of Riddick: Assault On Dark Athena and The Wheelman be noticed in a gaming environment filled with big hyped exclusives Killzone 2 and Halo? Article includes videos.

Vin Diesel, the muscular, bald, gravely voiced actor who started his own video game studio Tigon in 2002, looks ready to make a mark on this year's video game-scape. His studio is involved in at least two Xbox 360/ PS3/ PC games that will be released this year which feature his likeness.

Will the new games match that quality and success, or will they fall short of current-gen standards? And even if they are great titles, with the big-name console exclusive games like Halo 3: ODST and Killzone 2 grabbing most of the attention right now, will they be commercial successes? In short, will Vin Diesel make 2009 the year he surprises everyone again?
