    Kingdom Under Fire: Heroes
    Flawed though it is, any gamer worth their salt will want to master the game's impressive intricacies, and of course take their scheming strategies to the next level on Xbox Live... and to be honest, what more can you ask for in an Xbox game than that? Precisely. [Xbox World]

    Street Fighter Anniversary Collection
    Great value and a slice of gaming history, but it's still a shame they couldn't have put some more stuff together. [GamesMaster]

    Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter
    There's enough in here to entertain for a while so give it a whirl, just don't expect it to be playing it when "Star Wars Chapter Nine: Jedis Get Laid" arrives on the silver screen. [XGamer]

    Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks
    If you love all things MK, you'll see Shaolin Monks as a special milestone in the franchise and a reward for your loyalty. Otherwise, it's just a fun brawling diversion with lots of gloopy blood and two unlockable characters. Either way, it's good stuff.

    Tomb Raider: Legend
    Crystal Dynamics has accomplished the impossible. Lara is back in our good graces and we can't wait to see how her next adventure unfolds. We never thought we'd say that again, but times change.

    StarLancer
    The missions themselves are typical space sim affairs that never quite innovate, but always manage to entertain nonetheless. [PC Gamer UK]

    Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K. 2
    Sexy, frantic, bloody and beautiful, but it falls a short of brilliance. Beats Lara hands down, though.

    The Simpsons: Hit & Run
    A genuinely amusing game, with plentiful dialogue from the show and fresh contributions from the cast, and for the fan there's a wealth of in-jokes and references (such as the Stonecutters' secret tunnel, or the burning pyre of tyres). [GamesMaster]

    Pokemon Stadium 2
    One of the most rounded and comprehensive packages you're ever likely to see, something that makes it worthy of recommendation to all discerning Pokefans out there.

    SingStar '80s
    You'll need to be mad on '80s music. If you're not, don't touch this with Simon Le Bon's. If you are, it's loads better than Popworld and well worth the cash. [PSM2]

    NHL 2K7
    The lack of changes will disappoint some, but for 20 bucks the minor tweaks and new roster nicely enhance what was already a great game.

    • 88 Critic Score
    Armored Core 2
    Armored Core 2 may not be to everyone's tastes, but if you can get your head round it, the seamless integration of strategy and action provides a deep and enthralling experience.

    Star Wars Republic Commando
    This cracking slice of high-end Star Wars shootery is really very good indeed - but let down by repetition and some avoidable sameyness. [Xbox World]

    Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django
    Deduct 60 points if you live in an igloo but if not, Boktai 2 is better than the original. [GamesMaster]

    Mars Matrix
    A blaze of fiendish difficulty and strategic brilliance. You're about to be sorted.

    Point Blank 3
    Not an essential purchase, maybe, but Point Blank version 3 is still tremendous fun, horribly addictive, and its new modes do make it even more of a party game.

    Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding
    The interlocking level goals in the career mode ooze intelligent design. [Xgamer Magazine]

    Pac-Man vs.
    So basic that you'd think it couldn't possibly be this much fun. A tremendous multiplayer game, but be warned - that's all it is. [NGC]

    • 86 Critic Score
    Call of Duty 2: Big Red One
    Not quite as nails as before, yet even more exciting, Big Red One is the gaming equivalent of your synapses combusting. And that can only ever be a good thing. [PSM2]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
    It may or may not be the blood-soaked ending to the franchise, but it's easily one of the most enjoyable games in the series and one of the most unapologetically fun games of the season.

    NFL Street 2
    Visuals are nice and solid, with more background detail than its previous incarnation. The ideal post-Christmas treat for the NFL fan who has everything. [NGC]

    OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast
    Online play only sweetens the deal, making this one of the best, easily-accessible racers on any system.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare
    This is as unsettling and absorbing an adventure as you could hope for.

    Soldiers: Heroes of World War II
    If there is a hint of helplessness it's in those marvellous moments when Soldiers' fabulous physics, rich environments and imaginative AI produce such totally unpredictable results, you can only look on in amused dismay. [PC Gamer UK]

    The Godfather
    The action is bloody and satisfying, the story plays out like exceptionally well-written fan-fiction and the spirit of the movie and its characters are intact.

    • 70 Critic Score
    FIFA World Cup: Germany 2006
    FIFA remains more pick-up-and-play for the mainstream sports gamer, but offers some depth and subtleties that will enable more experienced players to do their best Beckham impersonation.

    • 82 Critic Score
    Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks
    Far from the dodgy cash-in we expected, Kombat dwarfs the likes of Beat Down and offers genuine improvements in the formerly stagnant scrolling fighter genre. [PSM2]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Nexus: The Jupiter Incident
    Big, beautiful and compelling, Nexus is an epic game. However, its extremely slow pace may not be for everyone. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Turok 3: Shadow of Oblivion
    You could do a lot worse than re-visiting the first two Turoks and forgetting all about this half-hearted and dispiriting finale to what has been one of the best-loved franchises on the N64. A shame.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
    It's about as difficult as fighting your way out of a ripped paper bag.
