Prey offers a surreal and entertaining playing experience; however I did feel that it was a one trick pony, albeit a very good trick indeed.

The best skateboarding game you can buy. A good game in its own right, and a worthy sequel for all its worth.

MotoGP definitely isn’t one of those games, I doubt it has done anything out of the ordinary, but it is a game out of my regular interest and a game that’s definitely recommended by conformists and non-conformists alike.

The animation and quirkiness of the characters is superb and brings a whole new dimension seeing them in Lego form.

The game does play much better when there are four human players using mics and who are equally disgusted by the prominent offensive language. It's in these moments that Gameplay is tight, engaging and well worth the entrance fee for an unrivalled experience this generation.

If you are looking for a wide variety of single and multiplayer game types then I would say that this game is well worth a look.

Panzer Generals: Allied Assault is an impressive little game, the battles are challenging but also rewarding.

Naturally full of suspense and will no doubt make many players jump in their seat at times or genuinely feel anxious whilst playing.

Rez is a game with tons of character due to its initially innovative sound track, and although this idea has been used elsewhere, Rez still has its own charm and uniqueness that makes Rez HD a must buy for those on the hunt for something new.

Throwback delivers a genuine Tecmo Bowl game without adding too much or taking away anything that made the game a cult classic.

A good few hours can be spent on just walking around the mansion, just checking out the character bios by logging onto the terminals. All in all great fun.

A Kingdom for Keflings provides a light but unique strategy experience that is pretty much one of a kind on XBLA.

MechAssault 2 sounds pretty damn good as far as simulating a giant robot fight.

Silent Hill: Homecoming will not disappoint in quality, whether you’re returning traditionalists or even a curious newcomer, Silent Hill: Homecoming is an honorable addition to a defining franchise.

While it may not be perfect and it may have taken a few steps backwards, the strides forward still make NBA 2K10 the best damn basketball game you’ll find on the Xbox 360 – or on any other console, for that matter.

Assassin’s Creed is receiving a fair amount of criticism, despite some of its flaws I still believe the game to be very good, it just could have done with some more refining.

Despite the driving, which I couldn't stand and the odd glitch here and there I found The Godfather to be a compelling and entertaining title. Yes it does look rather dull in places but in general has enough character and polish to keep you hooked.

Shank, combined with its well thought-out combat and artistic style is a game that certainly appeals to fans of classic side-scrollers and gory romps of gaming mayhem, and earns its worth at 1200 Microsoft points; more so if you're able to experience both modes of play.

Once you get past the uninteresting story, the rather patronisingly bad voice acting, and a few minor gameplay finicky bits that remind you that this is a game now and again, R.U.S.E. offers a revitalising outlook on the strategy formula with just a couple of new additions.

Wacky, fun, engaging and full of beans and perhaps not too dissimilar to "Amped 3" in design.

In closing, Dark Sector is a decent action shooting game that will appeal to those gamers who like a little thinking with their blasting.

If you're looking for a solid action game with an Italian flavour then Mafia II is worth the investment it's just a shame 2K Games opted to ignore all the things gamers love about open world activities hence their absence here.

If you have never played a Far Cry game before then now is the time as Far Cry Instincts Predator has a lot to offer.

Kane and Lynch 2: Dog Days is not without its problems, and as a modern third-person shooter it appallingly lacks some gameplay elements that are considered standard in games of this type. Despite these shortcomings it still deserves to be played, largely due to its great visual style and atmosphere, easy to pick up and enjoy multiplayer modes and co-op offerings.

Filling the void in the games market and giving fans enough of everything they could possibly ask for, Def Jam Rapstar is possibly the surprise sleeper hit of the season. It won't appeal to everyone given the genre of music it represents, but for those it does appeal to, appeal to them it most certainly will.

Bakugan is a surprisingly fun and addictive and that's coming from an older gamers perspective. Whilst the anime inspired story might come across weak and typical, the game is fresh and rewarding to play due to its tactical slant and despite the fact the AI likes to cheat, but also makes its fair share of mistakes.

The story is gripping and rich in content.

The game as a whole is an entertaining race into the world of Moto GP, however marginal updates to the core gameplay may not warrant a purchase unless you're a hardcore MotoGP fan who wants another ride around the track and mop up some achievements along the way.
