Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
An ambitious title, but for any First Person Shooter fan this will rock your socks!
Battlefield 2: Modern Combat hasn't really undergone too many changes in the transition to the Xbox 360 from the original Xbox. The major change comes with the visuals and it really feels like the war grounds have been g... Read Full Review

DOOM 3: Resurrection of Evil
Not as good as the legendary Doom 3, but it still packs a punch to draw Doom fans in for the fight!
Whereas Doom 3 had a decent enough plot, memorable PDA voice messages and moments of shear exhilaration, RoE has a throw away story, text based messages and few moments of shear joy. Luckily, the game isn't as long eithe... Read Full Review

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Star Wars is back on full form, in this exciting RPG. This is what a Star Wars game is meant to be like!
Another cultural phenomenon has been born, and its name is Knights of the Old Republic. The best ever Star Wars role playing game, KOTOR accomplishes the seemingly impossible on many levels, from resuscitating a franchis... Read Full Review

Star Wars: Battlefront II
Sadly recycled from the previous game, BF2 takes players even deeper into the story, but doesn't do it's right justice.
A long time ago in a gaming universe right next door most Star Wars games were truly lackluster. Simply slapping the name on anything and everything to make a quick dollar really tarnished the franchise's reputation, as ... Read Full Review

Another Star Wars game to add to the popular franchise, but many things are wrong with this game that bring it down!
Battlefront takes one of the most popular sci fi universes and combines it with one hell of a gameplay system and creates an addictive game that lets many Star Wars junkies live out some of their wildest dreams. The g...

Fable
Fable has everything you would expect from a game of this genre, but isn't well polished, and has some visual problems.
Fable starts you off slow, as you learn the basics while still just a young boy. Your first mission is to find a last minute birthday present for your sister. Your father makes a deal with you, offering you one gold piec... Read Full Review

DOOM 3
Doom 3 is an intense, atmospheric shooter, but some major flaws pull this game down to the ground!
There is no doubt that there will be comparisons between other first person shooters such as Halo 3, Chronicles of Riddick, and eventually the upcoming release of Left 4 Dead 2. Even though they share the same genre, the... Read Full Review

Burnout 3: Takedown (Platinum Hits)
A enjoyable thrill ride, with stunning graphics and some of the best in game action ever made.
I'd like to start out by saying that Burnout 3: Takedown is one of the best racing games ever made. What you should understand is this: that Burnout 3 is a game that pretty much any gamer can, and probably will, enjoy. D... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack
Two amazing games in one package? Count me in.
Grand Theft Auto: not only a phrase that refers to an actual crime, but also the title of a popular game series that, until now, was exclusive to the Playstation and PC platforms. With Rockstar's release of the Grand The... Read Full Review

Far Cry Instincts
A solid FPS adventure game, with superb graphics that stand out of the crowd, even now!
Set on a remote tropical island called Micronesia in the South Pacific, Ubisoft's Far Cry Instincts has players in the role of Jack Carver. He's a former soldier who operates a tourist boat and gives journalists tours ar... Read Full Review

Dead Rising
A solid, gory, zombie hack N slash game, with stunning graphics and more weapons you can shake a pole at!
It bears repeating: Zombies and Nazis are the two greatest video game enemies of all time. Occasionally we see a trend that puts Nazis on top, then zombies come back, and the circle of unlife goes on. Every once in a whi... Read Full Review

Call of Duty 2
A solid WWII adaptation, with a solid soundtrack and stunning gameplay elements.
The Big Red One, for the PS2, is good but doesn't really do anything different from other games. A great thing with Call of Duty 2 is that you get to fight alongside different squads. You'll get to fight as a Russian, Br... Read Full Review

Halo 2
Halo 2 is by far the best Xbox game ever made, and even now, it stands out as a modern masterpiece.
Halo 2 places you back in the role of the Master Chief, a biologically, genetically and technically enhanced Spartan super solider who can single handedly turn the tide of any battle, no matter how bleak the outlook. Nat... Read Full Review

Halo (Xbox Collection)
Halo is one of the best First Person adventure games ever made. Fact!
Halo 3 and Killzone 2 aside, first person shooters haven't exactly been received with open arms by console players over the years. The first reason is clearly control. Hardcore First Person fans point out (quite correctl... Read Full Review

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
A massive open world to explore. A high fueled action runned game! Not to be missed!
Grand Theft Auto, love it or hate it, is a big gaming name. And San Andreas is one of the best in the buisness... The PlayStation 2 version was my favorite overall game of 2005 and before, and San Andreas Xbox now tak... Read Full Review

Perfect Dark Zero
This isn't anything special, but still grabs you and really feels like a solid, first person adventure!
The whole "zero" craze was pretty much over for me with the release of Resident Evil Zero. Although the word is fun to say and it indicates where the story lies in the overall mythos of a series, its seems to get a littl... Read Full Review

Riot Act
Crackdown is by far the best open world super hero game on the 360, nearly topping inFamous as the greater!
If you haven't heard about this game yet, you must be living under a virtual rock. The game has been on shelves worldwide for ages now, but it doesn't stop it being one hell of a game! Here's the scoop. You're a new r... Read Full Review

Forza Motorsport 2
A solid racing simulator, with a great selection of cars and extra's, that will make any car nut drool!
When Forza Motorsport debuted on the Xbox, it was Microsoft's first foray into the racing simulator subgenre and surprisingly, the first time it was a massive hit. Forza Motorsport earned many accolades from reviewers an... Read Full Review

Gears of War
A stunning game, with great gameplay mechanics and some awesome set pieces! Get ready for the best 360 game ever!
It should come as no surprise that I've given Gears of War a perfect 10. That's not to say that it's not without its faults. It definitely has room for improvement. But the good out weighs the bad by such a huge margin, ... Read Full Review

Fable II
Fable 2 is an all action packed adventure game, that will appeal to even the Call Of Duty lovers out there!

Left 4 Dead
Left 4 Dead is a solid, gory zombie hack and slash game, with some great action and rather amazing visuals!

Halo 3
Halo 3 is everything you would expect from a solid Halo game, with a few great extra's popped in.
Well, it's here, it's been out a while, the fight is finally finished and the fat lady has sung. Well, ODST is out, but Master Chief isn't in it, so, I can call this game the "last Halo", if you like. Quite possibly the ... Read Full Review

Need for Speed: Shift
A step up from previous games, and the new style of gameplay change has proven that this series is still alive!

Mini Ninjas
Mini Ninjas: A fun enough game, but recycled ideas doesn't give this game it's justice it deserves!

DiRT 2
Your back to the dirt track, in this rather good racing sim. Dirt 2 is possibly the best racing game ever made. Fact!

IL-2 Sturmovik: Birds of Prey
Head upwards in this fun, addicting but repeative flight simulator.
Console gamers wishing to reach for the skies have been pretty spoiled lately, with such great titles as Blazing Angels and Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. Games like that have been worthy of a flying for a medal or two, but now i... Read Full Review

Wolfenstein
A World War II shooter with a twist, Wolfenstein is a unique, first person shooter, but falls short of character.
Readers of a certain age may remember with great fondness the re birth of the Wolfenstein series back in 2001. Return to Castle Wolfenstein was a game that soon adopted a cult following, whereas its predecessor, Wolfenst... Read Full Review

Stormrise
With terrible gameplay and controls, Stormrise dissapoints in every way possible.
Whenever an RTS game comes to consoles, the main talking point is always the control method. Will it find an acceptable workaround for the lack of keyboard and mouse control? Or are your fingers going to be tied in knots... Read Full Review
