    NBA 2K8
    NBA 2K8's got the best on-court basketball experience on the PS2 this year. That's enough for us to declare it the champ.

    Omega Five
    All you need for a great shooter is solid control and intense action, and Omega Five has that in spades. Plus it’s got some extremely pretty visuals to boot.

    Commanders: Attack
    A fun, supremely-playable game that can and will be enjoyed even by those who aren’t hardcore strategy fans.

    Front Mission
    If you know you're getting into a heady, deliberate, and involved game then you'll be rewarded well by Front Mission.

    Thrillville
    Offers a metric ton of activities for you to engage in. The sheer variety is unheard of for this genre (on a console anyway), and it all works. That said, little of it is outstanding, and while all the pieces are in place, there isn't a single aspect of this game that will blow you away.

    Tokobot
    It's a great concept, but the simplistic physics and repetitive puzzles let it down somewhat. You can never really put together any flowing moves, and the game runs out of surprises far too quickly.

    The Sims 3: University Life
    Die-hard Sims fans will find plenty of ways to have fun during those weeks away at college, but once graduation’s over and the career path begins, University Life will become a distant memory.

    GripShift
    With the promise of downloadable tracks, levels and game types in the future, GripShift is a decent way to spend 800 Microsoft Points. It might not be the most incredible kart racer you’ve ever played, but it’s solid and it’s fun, and that’s what counts.

    Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2
    Thus, as well as it plays, we can only really recommend a purchase to players who don’t have the last three. For everyone else, it’s a rental.

    RoboCop: Rogue City
    Robocop: Rogue City reflects its protagonist's qualities. It's well-built and robust, a few glitches aside, and capable of triggering explosive action. Yet it's also mechanical in its design, its dialogue slow and plodding, and limited in its forms of interaction. Short on engaging mission design and the film's punchy satire, Detroit's finest needs better backup to enliven this drawn out adventure.

    Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
    Even without its wealth of extras, though, Tenkaichi 2 packs in a ton of fast, visceral and inexplicably addictive fighting action. Whether you're a fan of the series or you just want to punch a few guys through buildings, new Wii owners looking to scratch a fighting-game itch will want to check this out.

    Team Sonic Racing
    Team Sonic Racing, despite carrying a tidbit of fun, doesn't stand up to other kart racers today.

    Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris
    A chaotically silly party game that’s spliced its DNA with a dungeon crawler and a twin-stick shooter.

    Assassin's Creed Rogue
    While walking in the shoes of a Templar sounds promising, Assassin's Creed Rogue's dull story, uninspired characters, and largely recycled visuals offer little the franchise hasn't already done better.

    Rematch
    Rematch sees French studio Sloclap’s first foray into sports mesh elements of Rocket League and classic Be A Pro modes, to form a lighthearted football experience with a bright future. Mais oui.

    Justice League Heroes
    Gorgeous cutscenes give Justice League the epic feel that an all-star block party deserves.

    Worms: Battle Islands
    As solid as the core gameplay is, it's hard to shake the 'been there, done that' vibe of the whole package.

    Need for Speed Heat
    Great modding and a decent game engine can’t disguise the tired story and simplistic driving.

    Super Dragon Ball Z
    Once you've unlocked Mecha Frieza and have maxed out the skills of your favorite characters, the single-player modes are pure tedium.

    Amped 3
    While some gripes remain about the slightly confusing character skill progression, Amped 3 delivers a solid, next-gen entertainment bonanza that howls with the soul of a true snow beast.

    Dementium: The Ward
    Dementium: The Ward is almost perfection, performing as a fantastic feat of first-person survival, and oozes with a truly, truly frightening aesthetic. Even if it's not the first in its genre, it's the most satisfyingly original game we've seen on the DS in some time.

    Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero?
    Delivers all the goods where it counts most. It’s hard as hell, but won’t frustrate you to the point of despair. Its sense of humor is still charming - even though we wanted more of it - and it looks great to boot.

    The Saboteur
    The Saboteur is a charming mess. Yes, the unpolished gameplay can be frustrating and, yes, the storytelling can be silly. But as soon as we drove through the gorgeously stylized Paris – then jumped out of our nitro-fueled racecar to snap a unsuspecting Nazi’s neck – we didn’t care anymore. For us, the good overwhelmed the bad.

    MotorStorm Arctic Edge
    MotorStorm: Arctic Edge on PS2 may not be as robust as the previous PS3 versions of MotorStorm or as handy as the PSP version of Arctic Edge (what with the being portable and all), but it’s not a bad racing game to have around if the PS2 is your only option.

    Nintendo Switch Sports
    A well-thought-out online mode lifts Nintendo Switch Sports from being a sheer nostalgia trip, to an experience well worth the investment.

    Cloudbuilt
    Cloudbuilt should have been an addictive competitive speedrunner, but its imprecise controls and brutal checkpoints mean that only the most patient and dedicated players will press forward in this uniquely frustrating game.

    Star Ocean: The Last Hope
    Star Ocean: The Last Hope will deliver a ton of Japanese RPG goodness.

    Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins
    For the few, the proud and the masochistic, however, your game has arrived. Good luck, and for the love of god, use that optional wrist-strap. PSPs are expensive.

    Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08
    There's no getting around the fact that Tiger 08 brings very little to the table that hasn't been done before, though, so you may want to poke around for last year's version. You'll save some dough and hardly notice the difference.

    Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora
    The world opens up nicely as you play as well, gaining things like a flying Ikran to soar high over the trees, or opening up the map to introduce new areas and ecosystems just as you're starting to get comfortable with what you know. There is an occasional lack of clarity with things like guidance not always being crystal – wooly tracking missions being a prime example. However, the vibrancy of the world and the pure alienness of almost everything you encounter make Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora an enjoyable place simply to exist in, with all its otherworldly environments and creatures adding freshness the mechanics lack.
