    Conan

    This is an enjoyable romp of limb-lopping carnage if you're not expecting the next God of War.

    First of all this is based on the books not the Arnie films, hence the flat skulled, mulletted brawler. Once that disappointment wears off you can console yourself with this violent little treat. Here's a game that's ear... Read Full Review

    "Maybe the best online game out there. Rubbish single player."

    Burnout Paradise

    "Maybe the best online game out there. Rubbish single player."

    The single player mode has suffered in order to make this great online multiplayer racer / crasher. The new menu-less free-roaming city feels too vague and unstructured for racing. There's aren't any tracks so to speak a... Read Full Review

    "Better than the last few but still average"

    FIFA 07 Soccer

    "Better than the last few but still average"

    The latest instalment of the long running footy game tries once again to score critical acclaim to match its best-selling status. All the usual FIFA attributes are here, fully licensed teams from around the world, offici... Read Full Review

    "The best reason to own a 360 bar none."

    Gears of War

    "The best reason to own a 360 bar none."

    Let's put it this way. If you own a 360 you need this game. The setting is nothing special: humans vs. vicious alien scum. But rather than go for the traditional first person shooter look, the game adopts an over the sho... Read Full Review

    "A classic if you can handle the shoddy controls. Get the PS2 version if you can't."

    Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

    "A classic if you can handle the shoddy controls. Get the PS2 version if you can't."

    This is huge. The entire PS2 area of Vice City crammed into Sony's handheld wonder. This is no mere conversion; you get a whole new story, taking place two years prior to the events of the PS2 game, even the cut-scene gr... Read Full Review

    "Pretty good, but nothing essential on offer. A series treading water"

    Tony Hawk's Project 8

    "Pretty good, but nothing essential on offer. A series treading water"

    The 8th game in the legendary skateboarding series sets the toughest challenge yet. The latest gimmick is the ability to slow down time and control the individual feet of the skater to score big during mid-air combos. Sh... Read Full Review

    Colin McRae: DiRT

    "A worthy tribute to a rallying great."

    The long running rally driving series of the late Scottish hero finally hits PS3. There's a wide range of cars in many styles, old and new. Career mode has lots of difficulty settings, from very forgiving to utterly merc... Read Full Review

    "Great footy series ruined by a ridiculous frame-rate and lack of innovation."

    World Soccer Winning Eleven 2008

    "Great footy series ruined by a ridiculous frame-rate and lack of innovation."

    PS3 fans have had to wait an eternity for any footy games. So expectations are high for the latest PES. It's a shame then that they are awarded with this. There's nothing new on offer, but you can still get a lot of fun ... Read Full Review

    Heavenly Sword

    "A great action game with a fantastic story, let down by it's length."

    This is a stunning action adventure title. You star as Nariko, the flame haired, last hope of her clan. She brandishes the Heavenly Sword that legend says will restore peace to the land. A land that the tyrant King Bohan... Read Full Review

    "One of the best PSP puzzle games out there! Even if it is pretty much more of the same as the first one"

    Lumines II

    "One of the best PSP puzzle games out there! Even if it is pretty much more of the same as the first one"

    Here's the sequel to the brilliant sleeper hit puzzle game on the PSP. The premise is simple: line up same-coloured blocks in square shapes of four or more and link them together. A beam travels across the screen at vari... Read Full Review

    Haze

    "A rushed mess. PS3 needs Killzone 2 to be awesome more than ever."

    One of the most delayed PS3 exclusive titles is finally here and it turns out to be a rushed (but still very late), short, ugly mess. This first-person shooter from the makers of the excellent TimeSplitters series is now... Read Full Review

    "Not a great RPG, but not a bad one either"

    Enchant Arm

    "Not a great RPG, but not a bad one either"

    This is the PS3’s first RPG, and it’s a 360 conversion. No hype and no fanfare then. The game takes place in fictional versions of cities such as Yokohama, London and other varied but typical settings such as forests, de... Read Full Review

    Devil May Cry 4

    "Move over Dante, there's a Nero kid in town."

    A new star is born in this winner for Capcom's latest in the series. Replacing fan favourite Dante, the star of the Devil May Cry series would seem like a major mistake after the 'Raiden' backlash of Metal Gear Solid ... Read Full Review

    BlackSite: Area 51

    "Way too short but great fun while it lasts."

    This is the pseudo-sequel to 2005s Area 51, but you're not at a disadvantage if you haven't played it. The early missions of this first-person -shooter take place in Iraq a few years before the events at Area 51. As an a... Read Full Review

    Lost: Via Domus

    "An ok rental for fans of the show but not worth a full purchase by anyone."

    Here you play as a previously unseen survivor of the crash of Oceanic 815 on the game of the TV show Lost. The events of the game take place during the first two seasons but you may recognise the odd face and location fr... Read Full Review

    FolksSoul: Ushinawareta Denshou

    "Some great new innovative sixaxis play and the combat is fun but the story is quite poor."

    If the PS3 is short on one thing it's RPG's. Enchanted Arms was ok (underrated even), Oblivion has been well received but other than that there really isn't much choice for gamers. Many hardcore RPG fans may argue tha... Read Full Review

    Leave me alone. I don't deserve to be played.

    Turning Point: Fall of Liberty

    Leave me alone. I don't deserve to be played.

    A good example of an early sign of a poor game that even the developers are ashamed of is when it's on the shelves before any of your favourite magazines or websites have had chance to review it. This below the radar... Read Full Review

    Gran Turismo 5 Prologue

    "A beautiful driving sim held back by a poor online mode."

    The King of all driving sims returns with this taster for the upcoming Gran Turismo 5. It'll set you back just under £20 for the disc or £25 to download, which to be honest should be the other way around. Extras? In E... Read Full Review
