    Not quite the best game line-up ever, but the emulation and presentation are so well done it actually makes the games more enjoyable than rival compilations.

    While it may lack the "wow" factor of the original, SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2 is a great shooter for the PSP in its own right.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    Thrillville could’ve benefited from a little more development time to make the mini-games a little more fun.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    A reasonable boxing title that just arrived too late - slightly dated mechanics, graphical problems and those lengthy cutscenes really hold things back.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas returns the series to form with one of the most innovative, fresh, intense and enjoyable experiences that you can have with a console shooter.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Red Steel is an achievement both in its own extremely playable right, but also as a benchmark that other developers must meet - and hopefully exceed.

    It's hard to imagine Zelda getting any better than this. Quite simply, one of the best games ever created.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Just good, harmless fun.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A very solid first effort for the Wii, and provides just a taste of what is, and what will be, great about the Wii console. Pick it up, play it and have fun. Very nice.

    There are better consoles to play Need for Speed: Carbon on, the game just isn't all that enjoyable with the Wii's control system.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Monster 4X4: World Circuit is a budget port of an Xbox title, we're getting it almost a year later and at full price. The game wasn't great originally and it still isn't.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Project 8 is still a solid game, but the PlayStation 3 version is just inferior to the version we've been playing for four months.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Whilst not a giant leap from its predessesors the game does offer some new online options that may add to its appeal for some.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's a shame that a game that gets the mix of genres so right is hampered by such a great number of issues that all result in holding it back from realising its true potential.

    Sonic Rivals focuses on the speed of Sonic, there is never a dull moment.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Not a huge improvement over previous versions, with only a few minor additions, a few new vehicles and a new setting.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A poorly executed game that could’ve been much more memorable if it had followed a similar path to Lego Star Wars.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Singstar Rocks! lives up to its name and is quite simply one of the best Singstar compilations yet.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There isn't anything particularly new here, but using the Wii controller feels so intuitive that Banana Blitz quickly becomes a highly enjoyable experience.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Final Fantasy players who missed out on the original - which is a highly likely scenario - can't go wrong by nabbing this professionally updated piece of gaming nostalgia.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Wii controls make a great game a good game. All the core ideas are presented, but only accessible if you quite literally want to make the move to snare the fun.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    One of the worst games of the year and an insult to the original Sonic game.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    This game is a classic example of a developer being forced to innovate and embrace the Wii remote. Madden NFL 07 on the Wii is clearly one of the best uses of the Wii remote yet.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Despite the lateness, Call of Duty 3 is a intense and enjoyable shooter for the PS3 but only worth it if you haven't already played another version.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    It's easily the best of the three shooters on the Wii right now in every respect, and leaves the patchy Red Steel in the dust.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    While the vision is pure, the final execution is anything but. However, purity has never been a requirement for some, and for anyone after a simple, if shallow Hawk experience on the Wii, this may provide the goods.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Resistance: Fall of Man impresses in practically every area. For what it lacks in originality it makes up in quality.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Despite the fact it looks rather pretty, Genji: Days of the Blade is a poor effort that does just about everything worse than its predecessor.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great introduction to the Wii’s unique abilities and a party game most people will enjoy. The bunnies are the real stars of the game, and are its main source of humour and interest.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Likely to be appreciated by the Warhammer fanatics amongst you or Total War fans looking for a fantasy-based spin.
