    Burnout Paradise
    The visceral thrill and sheer, white-knuckle intensity of Burnout remains untouched. The game looks, sounds and controls as well as it ever has. Online play is excellent, if currently somewhat limited. There are only two real downers (the lack of event restarts and Crash mode) and we’re big fans of the open city design, though it does have a learning curve.

    No More Heroes
    The best feature of NMH has got to be the visceral combat system.

    Endless Ocean
    It's neither a good depiction of the real thing, or fun.

    Advance Wars: Days of Ruin
    Intelligent Systems put an awful lot of thought and effort into Dark Conflict. The result is that the series has been rebooted and revitalised. If you’ve had Advance Wars fever in the past, prepare for a relapse.

    MX vs. ATV Untamed
    A passionless racing cocktail that’ll fail to start your engine.

    Unreal Tournament III
    Epic Games has done a more than admirable job of transporting the game from PC onto PS3 and further refined their genre-leading gameplay. Offline gamers, however, should just rent it.

    Universe at War: Earth Assault
    Everything that's wrong comes down to a lack of polish, and a poor choice in multiplayer game management.

    The Golden Compass
    Its sheer randomness and awfulness is a remarkable sight.

    Rock Band

    Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings

    Time Crisis 4
    If you’re into arcade TC4, you’ll really dig this.

    Trauma Center: New Blood
    Just like your typical medical soap, there’s a seemingly endless 42 episodes to contend with, plus bonus challenges.

    Impossible Mission
    In the shadow of this missed opportunity, Impossible Mission is just a tease.

    Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Friends
    A sugar rush of mini-game madness.

    Soldier of Fortune: Payback
    Without the gore it’s got nothing more.

    Super Mario Galaxy
    The genius of Super Mario Galaxy is that its basic game design solves every problem that’s ever existed with a platform or adventure game.

    Panzer Tactics DS
    If you can lose yourself in Steel Panthers style strategy games on the PC, Panzer Tactics DS could be for you. If Civ makes your head spin, then give it a miss.

    Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
    A decent addition to your collection, but it hasn’t evolved.

    Viva Pinata: Party Animals
    Yes, it looks pretty, but without the competitive spirit and creativity of other party games, Party Animals gets old faster than a progeria sufferer. This one is sadly a bit of a party pooper.

    Battalion Wars 2
    Despite such tactical bugbears, this really is a fun game to play, and the lively atmosphere will keep you coming back for more.

    Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles

    Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
    A word of caution however, don’t get fooled by the kiddy visuals presented in Zack & Wiki because some of the puzzles contained within require a fair degree of lateral thinking to beat. With that in mind, older gamers seeking an enjoyable challenge should definitely pick this up.

    Beautiful Katamari
    Feels reassuringly familiar, but also fresh and new.

    Flash Focus: Vision Training in Minutes a Day
    Sight Training has no story at all, and no context beyond the potential to improve skills useful in your everyday life. It is simply a tool – a good one. If you want to improve your vision, it’s an affordable first step.

    NBA 08
    This last mode is particularly inspired, allowing Net-connected gamers to head online, identify the biggest game of the week, and then go about rewriting/confirming history.

    Everyday Shooter
    The play balance is sublime.

    Bleach: The Blade of Fate
    If you want a 2D fighting game for your DS, then it would be tough to think of a better example than this.

    Donkey Kong: Barrel Blast
    Donkey Kong was Nintendo’s original big baddie. He’s now been reduced to an inanity-grunting, tie-wearing corporate wuss, shilling lacklustre knock-offs of games his mortal adversary in Mario aced the market with. It’s time to stand up and fight! Don’t support this emasculation of a – perhaps THE - classic arcade bad dude.

    Chibi-Robo! Park Patrol
    Fabby low-pressure gaming for kids or any lovers of all things bright.
