    Chibi-Robo!
    Equal parts kooky characters, clever game design and addictive battery recharging, Chibi-robo satisfies that part of all gamers that simply wants a decent challenge, no matter what kind of cute wrapping it wears.

    Ape Escape Academy
    Apart from the slow loading times, this is one of the best games on PSP. [PSM2]
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Electroplankton
    With a beautifully simple interface and very loveable creatures, Electroplankton won't fail to put a smile on your face - and isn't that what really counts? [GamesMaster]

    • 60 Critic Score
    Chaos Field
    Despite its nonstop action and requisite techno soundtrack, Chaos Field never ascends to the level of a shooter classic, like GameCube's beautiful "Ikaruga." It's all about finding a sweet spot and plugging away.

    WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006
    The new minigames are a bit rubbish, but there's basically no reason for PSP-owning WWE fans not to get this. Finally, PSP gets itself a decent fighting game. About time too. [PSM2]

    Final Fantasy IV Advance
    Don't let the fact that it's an update put you off. Easy to pick up and impossible to put down, this is a classic RPG. [NGC]
    • 65 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    The Sims 2
    Not really The Sims, more like an RPG with chores. Entertaining nevertheless. [GamesMaster]
    • 86 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Animal Crossing: Wild World
    It's like a digital version of Royston Vasey: the same things happening week by week, a set of unnerving neighbours - but you really will never leave. [GamesMaster]
    • 76 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Super Mario Strikers
    Mario hasn't starred in something this weak since his pinball effort on GBA. [GamesMaster]
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
    With the series' clever design and sense of humor fully restored, The Two Thrones is a stellar return to form for Prince of Persia.

    Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
    Whichever version you choose, though, the action is top-notch awesome. With the series' clever design and sense of humor fully restored, The Two Thrones is a stellar return to form forPrince of Persia .

    Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time
    As good a Mario adventure as you could hope for, and a cracking RPG in its own right. [GamesMaster]
    • 77 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    Battlefield 2: Special Forces
    These supermen are capable of feats ordinary Battlefield grunts could only dream of, wielding 12 new firearms and racing across eight huge new maps in 10 new vehicles. Them's a lot of numbers, but then this is definitely no ordinary game. [GamesMaster]

    Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie
    But it it's the most basic beat-'em-up you've ever played, often you'll find yourself simply holding the stick forward while Kong runs on invisible rails. It's beautiful, but oh-so-boring and unchallenging. [GamesMaster]

    Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie
    It's simply good fun from beginning to end - like an unexpectedly violent Disneyland ride.
    • 73 Metascore

    Viewtiful Joe: Double Trouble!
    VJ is certainly impressive to look at, although the swing to a more puzzle-orientated play won't please everyone. [NGC]

    Ridge Racer 6
    We expected more from Ridge's first super-powered 360 outing. Disappointing. [GamesMaster]
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Aeon Flux
    Redundant or not, it's also worth pointing out that the whole game only takes ten hours - tops - to finish, and honestly, that's just long enough before the tedium begins to set in.

    Pac-Man World 3
    No, it's hardly the greatest platformer ever - far from it - but it certainly isn't the worst.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    Earth 2160
    A space war that's heavy on cliché, with a side order of weird aliens. Earth 2160 is an accomplished but dull RTS sequel. [PC Gamer UK]
    • 72 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Amped 3
    It's impossible to dislike Amped 3 - it has real character, is hugely ambitious in size and scope, there's plenty to keep you occupied and, even if it isn't all that immediate, it is accessible.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    Infected
    It's not the most imaginative game on PSP, but it is entertaining. The fun of wiping out a group of slavering zombies with a well timed combo shot is enough to justify buying this. [PSM2]
    • 53 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    EyeToy: Operation Spy
    Good for impressing people with technology - not quite so good as an actual game. [GamesMaster]
    • 82 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Sonic Rush
    Sonic may be in a rush, but Sega clearly wasn't when they crafted this glorious game. [NGC Pocket]
    • 90 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    Half-Life 2
    The graphics, albeit at a lower resolution (and with the occasional low frame rate) than the PC version, still make City 17 feel like a real place - not just a collection of videogame levels. [GamesMaster]
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Need for Speed Most Wanted
    It's a shame that the multiplayer options don't include a cop pursuit mode, but that's a minor omission in a one-game-fits-all package. If you haven't found any of the recent NFS games to be juuuust right, Most Wanted is the one to own.

    From Russia With Love
    Despite the missteps, the whole of FRWL satisfies with a combination of excellent graphics, (literally) jazzy tunes, and varied gameplay.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 73 Critic Score
    The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
    A Lord of the Rings clone that's a bit like an ice sculpture: solid and pretty, but doesn't last long. [GamesMaster]
    • 91 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    Mario Kart DS
    Never before has Mario Kart offered so much content, that's so easily accessible and can be enjoyed by so many people. [GamesMaster]
    • 84 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    WWE SmackDown! vs. Raw 2006
    It's excellent, and if you're a wrestling die-hard, you'll want to get it. But if you're not, we can't honestly say that this is different enough to last year's outing - which itself was hardly radically different to the previous year's - to be a must-have. [PSM2]
