    Lair
    This tedious control system just turns the main focus of the game, the battles, into a task rather than an enjoyment. Not only does the SIXAXIS control scheme not feel comfortable or natural, it just doesn’t work. And the fact that you can’t even turn it off makes it even more of a burden.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08
    Whilst there is not a tonne of content to set it above last year's release on the 360, it is a significant improvement on the previous PS3 version.

    BioShock
    Graphically, Bioshock is simply a masterpiece. The graphics are equally measured by fantastic technical excellence, showing without a doubt the best water effects in any game and an art style that flows through the city of Rapture, providing a streaming masterpiece.

    Madden NFL 08
    My man-crush for Al Michaels notwithstanding, Madden 08 is the best entry into the series since it made the leap to this current-generation of consoles.

    Track & Field
    Faithful port from the original arcade version that will have you in stitches while competing against your on or offline buddies.

    Boogie
    This is a great little game that is aimed squarely at the party and casual gamer.

    NASCAR 08
    It’s not a bad game by any means—it just needs some more imagination to keep things fresh for the folks out there that don’t count them among the NASCAR faithful.

    Sonic the Hedgehog (Live Arcade)
    Super fast, Still beautiful.

    Carcassonne
    Carcassonne for the Xbox LIVE Arcade is a great conversion of the original board game, but certain aspects of the game are lacking.

    Band of Bugs
    Overall, anyone who enjoys turn-based strategy games should definitely give BoB a go, as for 800 MS points, you really get a lot of gameplay for your money.

    Pac-Man Championship Edition
    New challenges keep you coming back for more.

    Catan
    Catan is a game that can appeal to almost every segment of the gaming market. If you’re young or old, fan of casual or hardcore games—it doesn’t matter.

    Pinball FX
    With great graphics this fun and addictive game will provide hours of gameplay for any pinball fan and is definitely worth a purchase.

    Marble Blast Ultra
    The multiplayer is probably the best part of this game. It combines simple fun and “pick-up-and-playability” very well.

    Raven Squad: Operation Hidden Dagger
    A graphical nightmare.

    PDC World Championship Darts 2008
    Dart board - £20, Darts - £5, Not having to play this game – Priceless.

    Superstars V8 Racing
    Superstars V8 Racing is a very good racing title, despite a few flaws, which will undoubtedly pass through almost everyone's radar. This is ideal for racing fans looking to pass time whilst awaiting Forza Motorsport 3 with great anxiety.

    Nat Geo Challenge! Wild Life
    On the whole, National Geographic: Wildlife Quiz is more of an educational resource than a video game, providing players with some incredible high-definition footage and interesting information, yet poor and quite tedious in terms of gameplay. Unless you're thoroughly interested in wildlife, this is one to avoid.

    Flight Control HD
    For the princely sum of £4, Flight Control HD is a title you can pick up on a whim, it's worth taking the risk that you might not like it at that price, but I guarantee the chances are you'll have a fun time on the cheap. If you have a Move controller it's an essential purchase – the game comes highly recommended.
