Sega have successfully blended basic 3D and amazing 2D into the game, anyone who has moved away from Sonic in recent years has a great reason to come back to the series now.

One of the finest games of this generation and one of the best single player FPS's ever created.

Despite a myriad of improvements, True Crime: New York City's inexcusable number of bugs make it one of the biggest disappointments of this holiday season.

One of the best racing games of 2005. It feels so polished and the presentation is really high class.

The incredibly stupid AI is unforgivable and is something that shouldn't be an issue in any game these days.

Chronicles of Narnia presents a few neat ideas that should be used in future games from this genre, but there are far too many issues that out weigh the good.

Mario Kart at its absolute finest. Miss it at your peril.

You really have to wonder how long Yuke’s continue to push out the exact same game with minor changes each year when there are so many issues – even EA’s games feature bigger alterations than what we’ve seen from Smackdown over the past few years.

If you can get past the intial complexities or are already a series fan, this game will keep you in until X4 is released.

Crash Tag Team Racing isn't as enjoyable on the PSP, but it's a step forward for the Crash Bandicoot franchise, the game is fun whilst it lasts.

An addictive tycoon style game which also caters to those with a bit of creative flair.

There is a variety overload in terms of gameplay; with fundamental 2D gameplay enhanced by the context sensitive magic scheme, a horribly addictive DDR-esque section, 6 fun and quirky mini-games and taking care of your own virtual pet Nintendogs style, not to mention multiplayer mode and a bevy of extras to come back for.

Fireteam Bravo is a slightly flawed gem, but it’s a gem nonetheless and its gameplay online and off shines bright enough on the PSP’s widescreen to capture the hearts and minds of the SOCOM faithful and all PSP gamers who have been long starved of first-class gaming entertainment.

A classic example of style over substance. Superb production values, but there's no real meat in the underlying game.

Unfortunately the battles just feel small and scaled back in this game.

A real slap across the face to Matrix fans. Do yourselves a favour and take the blue pill.

Overall a good idea, but poor execution throughout. A good technical showpiece for the Xbox 360, but in truth a disappointing game destined for the bargain bins in six months.

One of the purest forms of fun in gaming today. Unless your music tastes lay elsewhere this is something that should be in every PS2 owner’s collection.

Thanks to a number of rewarding new bonuses, and excellent gameplay mechanics, Donkey Kong Country 3 offers one of the best portable platforming experiences on the GBA.

A game that had a lot of potential in its concept, but a few solid ideas can't make up for poor gameplay.

The gameplay is utterly basic, consisting of punching and running, but the co-operative element between two players is quite nice. Kids who loved the movie will no doubt get a kick out of this game.

Far too easy and unsatisfying to do justice to the source material.

While the base game remains fairly much the same, the new space battles are a real thrill – it's just a pity that the hero system that appeared to be so promising really just serves to unbalance the experience.

A top-notch FPS, and a huge improvement from Finest Hour.

All the elements of a great game are here except the level design. That, however, is a key element in a game with exploration based goals.

If you are looking for a console shooter on the handheld, then this is your best bet. It's unfair to expect more from the PSP when the demands are so huge, but the PSP is easily online ready, and Star Wars Battlefront II just doesn't feel the same without going online.

The controls aren't the only problem though, the linear gameplay, poor story and repetitive levels really bog this game down.

Spongebob Squarepants and Friends Unite! will provide a bit for the fans but anyone looking for co-op action should look elsewhere, even if they’re under ten.
