    Annoyances aside, at 800 points Dead Money is a steal, one that could be taken fresh from the Sierra Madre vaults themselves!

    Featuring 45 tracks in one of 16 fully upgradeable cars FlatOut offers a great fun racer combined with the car tuning although this is not as extensive as say "Forza Motorsport."

    Sadly, there is none of that witty humor that we come to expect from Rockstar; which may have beefed things up a little bit if it was included.

    The Xbox 360 exclusive add-ons in the Case Zero prequel, and here in the Case West finale give the game a fitting introduction and end.

    Clearly Call of the Dead is Treyarch's most ambitious Zombie's outing yet, and they've gone some way to secure the likeness and voices of this cast of legendary characters to wrap them up in Escalation's DLC package. With an excellent cast and rejuvenating gameplay that keeps you on the move, Call of the Dead will certainly keep lovers of the undead coming back for some time in the hopes of outdoing their previous best.

    This game shines at its best with the head-to-head online game modes though.

    Shadowrun is a magnificent multiplayer adventure that is sure to keep you entertained for as long as you wish to play.

    Don’t be fooled by the cute and cartoon looking game presented here. Because beneath the surface there’s some intricate and clever design that will test even the most ardent of fans and gamers.

    During the career mode you can have a rivalry that becomes so fierce it actually gets added to the ESPN Classic's section.

    Even though the game lacks in some areas compared to the first, it compensates by improving in others. So be like Rad Spencer and take that leap for the first time, BC Rearmed 2 is a worthy addition to your game library.

    I enjoyed the shooting action on foot but found the driving to be a little lacklustre.

    I guess it boils down to how fun you think it is to toss cows at unsuspecting people!

    Elements of Destruction is a nice simple little game that can be beaten in one sitting. The game is perhaps a little too simple though and the lack of variety in the attacks and the way they are used means the element of destroying buildings can become tiresome.

    The RPG free roaming nature of the game is great and actually reminded me a little of the Tobal games from times past.

    While it’s definitely missing a few features that could’ve extended the shelf life and fun factor of the game, Command & Conquer fans will easily get their money’s worth with Commander’s Challenge. Anyone looking to scratch an RTS itch through their Xbox 360 won’t be disappointed either, especially considering the hours and hours of gameplay you’ll get for the delightfully cheap price.

    The Wheelman is a solid driving game which is perhaps let down by some poor handling (for an arcade game) and some sub-standard graphics.

    If you like tennis games, then this is certainly well worth checking out, although it doesn’t offer too much variation from similar games based on the sport.

    The game has many chapters but considering you have an unlimited number of lives, you can easily finish this game within a few hours.

    Now that I’ve beaten the game and stand back to surmise my feelings, I can honestly say that although there were a few times when my blood boiled and I was tempted to reach for the teabags, cups and saucers(because of cheap moments); Legendary is actually quite compelling and solid fun.

    Even for its shortcomings online and the control issues, though, Call of Duty Classic is still an enjoyable singleplayer experience that will give fans of the series a glimpse at the game that started it all…provided you’re willing to drop 1200 Microsoft points on the shorter ride.

    Bionic Commando as a third person action game is pretty average and not necessarily the most accommodating of games - especially in regards to the masses of gamers who want instant gratification pick up and play experience.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Overall, I think the balance between action and strategy is spot on for the casual as well as hardcore gamers out there and is well worth renting it out. The single player campaign is too short but on LIVE it will be different every time you play, making the game last for quite some time.

    While it's a shame that De Blob 2 does not make use of the Kinect peripheral at all (unlike the PS3 version which integrates Move controls), there is still more than enough room for another solid platformer for the younger Xbox 360 crowd.

    Velvet Assassin is very much an enjoyable game, it might not have the high production values of some of its peers, but in general offers a tense, thrilling, and engaging gameplay experience throughout.
    • 74 Metascore

    The game play does get repetitive as you simply go from A to B doing the same things over and over with little variation except in weapons and levels.

    LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy will be a delight to play for any Star Wars fan, the story is short and can easily be completed in a weekend with out breaking a sweat, it will certainly be an enjoyable weekend though.

    There are issues with the title such as the controls, camera and AI but in general these do not hamper the overall game play too much other than causing some player frustration at times.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    The story is strong and keeps you interested all the way, the control system is hard to master but allows fluent exploration of the environments (which are huge).

    Blacklight Tango Down is one of the best looking XBLA titles to hit the marketplace and players will find that it may even surpass some retail games they have previously bought.

    If you are a Godfather faithful then this game is a must buy – just don’t go into it expecting something fantastic, it is not. What it does offer is a compelling in-sight into The Godfather movies as it gives you a different angle on the films.
