    Shift 2: Unleashed is a very good racer, one that walks a very fine line between simulated precision and arcade adrenaline, and while you'll enjoy the fantastic experience the game can offer you at times, you can't help but wonder that if by trying to do so much, the developers missed out on making anything truly outstanding.

    If you're more of a solo gamer that prefers a shooter with some form of campaign, then Unreal Tournament 3 is quite simply not that kind of shooter, this game is just based on all out bloody carnage in the best tournament arena available, which is online over Xbox Live.

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

    It’s well put together, there’s plenty of action, nice visuals but most importantly it’s fun to play. Marvel fans themselves will surely be pleased with the amount of content in the game.

    I think if you are looking for a game that stands out amongst the crowd, a game which really offers a compelling entertainment experience that feels fresh and to a degree unique; then The Darkness is certainly a game you should rush out and buy immediately.

    Test Drive Unlimited offers a great racing/driving experience combined with a fantasy exotic lifestyle gamers can lead, something that hasn’t been done before as far as I can recall.

    Let's be frank, single player in Blur, while "ok" is not really what the game is all about. Blur is about taking out the guy in front of you in multiplayer while protecting your rear from somebody with the same goal.

    This is one of those great videogame moments that you see the passion of the designers making the game really show in the end product.

    Fun and exhilarating.

    While online multiplayer will very likely be a love it or hate it affair for many, the single player campaign is a unique gaming experience that no player should dare to miss.

    Castle Crashers, even with the faults it currently has is quite possibly still the best Xbox LIVE Arcade game available.

    If you've not played the first game, then you'll no doubt be well pleased at having two chunks of fresh gaming to satisfy your hunger. For anyone else, the return to nostalgic realms is pleasant, but the over-familiarity of Dark Athena, might leave you burned out.

    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 breath of fresh air when it comes to stealth games.

    MvC2 isn’t an enhanced version of the original, nor does it usher anything new for old gamers to toy around with. In fact, it’s pretty much a port for the die-hard and dedicated fighting fans who want the game on their shiny, new Xbox 360.

    Call of Duty 3 is an immersive game, perhaps the single player is not quite as intense and well thought out as Call of Duty 2's was, but it is an excellent game in its own right.

    As the most exhilarating arcade racer on consoles Split/Second provides plenty of thrills with a tried and tested arcade racing formula combined with refreshing and dramatic game changers with the introduction of the fantastic power play mechanics.

    Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars is confident enough to stick out its chest on PC and indeed the console for its impressive control setups.

    A classic game and well worthy of the Final Fantasy moniker.
    • 82 Metascore

    As a whole, this game is a complete classic that never really seems to bore.

    It is one of the best experiences of the beautiful game, but the slightly slow pace of the title doesn’t quite encourage the excitement levels beyond anything substantial.

    Enslaved is an interesting adventure game that builds on the characters via cinematic direction to affiliate the player with their plight a little more readily. The gameplay is fluid but lacking in depth to really make it stand out.

    Ensemble have created something really special, they have managed to make a genre previously inaccessible to console audiences and turn it around into something that’s easy to play and heaps of fun.

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

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

    With deep character customization and addicting gameplay, Torchlight becomes easily worth the 1200 Microsoft Point price tag.

    A cracking game and at the end of the day is extremely fun and rewarding which is what counts. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, what with all the sexual orientated gags and the stereotypical look at gangster life.

    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 lots of games out this holiday season, and Saints Row 2 should be one of the games that you play, as there’s nothing at present that can rival its madcap adrenaline fueled flamboyance.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An unusually un-hyped game, which is surprising because although being a little strange and different from the norm is actually a fun and well polished title.
