Keeping alive the 2D platform on the little handheld that could make a retro junkie like me all warm and fuzzy inside, and it's an excellent throwback to the days of the 16-bit era where robots were ass kicking machines and a wrong step would have you plunging to your death, impaled through your metal chassis on a pit of spikes.

Although it's not a hard game, it can get quite tedious going back and forth around the world to please a girl, trying to get that perfect trampoline combination, and win at Quarters whilst still managing to get enough money to buy those cool clothes to impress that special girl.

The graphics in Robotech: Invasion are, put simply, average at best and very dated.

A pretty lacklustre game - in both the pinball and Mario aspects.

Still a great game, but is nowhere near as innovative as we found "THPS4" and "THUG."

If you’re a keen gamer and not a big fan of the strategy simulation games, stay clear of Evil Genius as it won’t bring you any satisfaction as opposed to a leading FPS game out on PC these days.

It will offer you around five to ten hours of solid gameplay.

Shark Tale does a fantastic job of representing the film authentically as a whole, but it’s its very basic, mini-game style levels and side-scrolling gameplay that let it down.

The in-battle game engine is entirely unmatched for realism and its unique vast - and yet personal - nature, while the turn based world map is both complex and involving.

Following the tale with new environments, new goals, and new characters Kohan II is a good buy for any fan, and/or RTS gamer. However, if you’re new to the RTS genre you should probably check out a more familiar game first, such as "Age of Empires," "Red Alert," or "Warcraft."

Some parts of the game have you on the edge of your seat with your heart racing as you can really feel for Vattic when attempting to be stealthy and sneak through an area.

Sly 2: Band of Thieves’s many innovative features and its unique and varied mix of platforming adventure, stealth and action make it a very refreshing game.

Through its heavy use of cut scenes the game does a fantastic job of developing its storyline and characters. Though it is a little bit short at only ten chapters, the game features three difficulty modes and interesting unlockables to keep you busy.
