The game just feels a lot faster than its predecessor. The motion blur really helps to make the game a lot more intense, and the tracks are a lot more realistic.

Anyone who is an arcade soccer fan would be best advised to pickup "World Tour Soccer," and if you're a simulation fan then it is highly advisable that you wait for "Pro Evolution Soccer 5" to come to the PSP.

Fans of the series will find that SSX on the PSP is very faithful to the series, there are a few control issues, but it's still a decent game.

A no-nonsense, old style first-person shooter – shoot first, think later. In that sense, it's brilliant fun. However, expect any more and you should prepare to be disappointed.

At times the gameplay can be a bit repetitive, and the humour isn't as successful as you'd hope, but if you're after more of the same then you'll feel right at home with Serious Sam II.

Ty 3 isn't a bad game, taking its target demographic and budget price into account.

The fact that it was finished last year and released in Japan in 2004 and left until now, with no changes, is just one of god’s mysteries.

Whilst Virtua Tennis: World Tour isn't exactly a new game, it's bloody good fun, and even better in wi-fi mode. One of the games of the [Australian] PSP launch.

A worthy follow up to its predecessor, but did we really need another one in such a short space of time?

More of the same, the enemies still aren't any smarter and the environments are still a little repetitive, but fans of the previous title should be well entertained with the game.

You’ll be hard pressed to find a more engaging or enjoyable game of this kind. Not unless you dig through back to the SNES days.

Still a fairly average game, but if you just must own one either the console version or the PSP version then the PSP version is the better choice.

The first legitimate contender that Pivotal has released to date.

Trauma Centre is much like any other medical procedure - it feels fine until the anaesthetic wears off.

The controls are an issue to consider before deciding to purchase this game as well, because although it may not seem like they will make that much of a difference, they do.

An average attempt at soccer on the DS. EA appear to have tried to produce a fully fledged soccer game but we cannot help but feel that the DS version is stripped down.

It might seem a little harsh, but we really do have to punish FIFA for regressing this year - what did EA Canada have to gain by going against the series' strengths? Wait for the Xbox 360 version, or jump to the "Pro Evolution Soccer" camp, but don't settle for this.

A competent RPG that has some remote appeal but it doesn't take enough of the things that made the Game Boy versions so enjoyable.

All the problems in the game are common areas that all RTS games should focus to be at their best, but Blitzkrieg II fails to fix any of them, and therefore results in an average RTS outing.

This game isn't going to win any awards for originality or complexity, but if you're after a non linear child's game that is based on the movie then you'll be pleased to know that this game is actually a fairly decent title, which left me very surprised.

One of the best built games in recent times. Intuitive action makes it simple and satisfying with sim and arcade fans being able to get in on the fun.

If you are a die hard fan of aeronautical history and love the idea of a dog fighting turn-based strategy game, this may appeal. To everyone else, it's a complete bore-fest.

Cold War seems to lack the two main components that are crucial to a stealth/espionage game - a solid narrative and a competent stealth system. Combine that with a short overall length, and you've got no real reason to play it.

With it's gentle pace, well-penned storyline and (just occasionally) some of the neatest puzzles we've seen this side of "Grim Fandango", PALGN wants to love CING's game. But it's all a little too obscure in parts, and over too quickly to encourage a real obsession.

It's a solid collection of some of Capcom's best, if you can get over the various emulation issues, however minor they may be.

A decent single player game that exceeds the PC version in places, but unfortunately lags behind it in the most important areas. The multiplayer is great though making Far Cry Instincts a recommendable purchase for those with Xbox Live.

Total Overdose doesn't take itself too seriously; and you shouldn't either. It's a fairly solid action game that puts the emphasis on style.

Slowly these titles are becoming just average compilations. Midway really need to take a break from this series; it is evident from this title that they are running out of ideas.
