    Planet 51 is a game for kids, it’s by no means entertaining, but is the perfect fit for a GTA friendly open world game – perfect training for the later years. The problem is that even youngsters will likely quickly tire of the game, assuming they’ve had the privilege of playing anything that offers up gaming entertainment.

    Those who love college basketball will be exceptionally pleased at all the pandering, and those who aren't might just gain an better understanding for the strategy of the game.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is a must have game and one that should stay in your collection...period.

    I do like the Lego aspect of this game; it makes it stand out from the other Rock Bands (except perhaps The Beatles). The music selection is great and the rock challenges are fun.

    Unfortunately, despite all the new additions in PES 2010 and things it does get right, you get the feeling of underwhelming achievement, like it should have been so much more.

    A great storyline with plenty of twists and charismatic characters make Dragon Age: Origins a memorable experience.

    Technically, features and presentation are well executed and bug free. However, we have some issues recommending it unconditionally due to missing that something that makes a player take the experience seriously and invest effort to earn progression.

    If you're after a solid and well respected 3D hand to hand fighter that is every bit as good offline as it is online then this is well worth the investment.

    DJ Hero is a breath of fresh air in the music game genre and we really feel FreeStyleGames has done a great job.
    • 92 Metascore

    There really is something for everyone here, and with the game's more laid back approach is less daunting for the inexperienced and more rewarding for the pros.

    Fairytale Fights is a valiant effort and a game which tries to turn convention upside down. In this regard it certainly succeeds but what we're left with here is a simple game lacking in variety.

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

    For 800 Microsoft points, Digital Chocolate delivers an incredibly fun and intuitive game that will stand out on an already impressive roster of games on the Xbox Live Marketplace. If it fits into your list of favorite genres, Tower Bloxx Deluxe is definitely worth your money.

    Borderlands isn't the most complex of games, in fact it's quite simple as you're not really interacting much with anything like it somehow feels you should be able to. However the execution in the areas it does well in are well polished and entices gamers who have gaming addictions.

    All we can say is WOW; how ever did Yuke’s and THQ manage to squeeze so much into a title with just under a year of development time? Other developers should definitely take notice; just because there isn’t another top notch game in the same genre, doesn’t mean that you can’t push the envelope.

    FIFA 10 is untouchable for its gameplay, presentation, audio and feature set and although there is still room for improvement, there is no doubt in my mind that EA Sports have again created a spectacular addition to the long running series.

    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.

    Duels of the Planeswalkers will keep you busy for a very long time.

    With its second season, its safe to say that Sam and Max has found its groove in this current generation of gaming, delivering a refreshing change of pace from the standard gameplay types that some gamers, including myself, can get tired of every once in a while.

    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.

    Magna Carta 2 isn't the best role playing game ever, but is certainly a great effort and one that is captivating for the right reasons.

    South Park Lets Go Tower Defence seems like a game that only fans of the cartoon will fully appreciate and to narrow that down further only those who have played similar games will enjoy this as the action aspect of the game cant hold up by itself.

    For shooter fans looking for that realistic experience, there's nothing else as authentic as Flashpoint currently available.
    • 43 Metascore

    Perhaps the younger gamers who are fans of the show will find something worthwhile here but the shallow gameplay will deter most.

    Saw
    It's the perfect rental for Saw fans, and the same can be said for those seeking another game to boost their gamerscore.

    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.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A must-buy for anyone who loves shooters and fighting off hordes of the dead with squeamish friends.

    Bungie have done a grand job in expanding the Halo universe here and although the story aspect might not be as rigid as previous games, the execution and presentation is second to none and has been well thought out to capture your imaginations even if you don't immediately gel with the players on the stage as readily.

    Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, whilst having a ridiculous name, sadly falls into the pile of games best avoided (achievement junkies look in your bargain bin!).

    Some games simply last the test of time, and twenty years later, Bubble Bobble is still a great, fun way to spend time – alone, or with friends.
