Killzone 2 is by far the best first person shooter on the PlayStation 3, with unprecedented graphics, impressive physics and a multiplayer experience that deserves to be played. Guerrilla Games have created an unforgettable action adventure with varied gameplay, intelligent AI and imposing enemies. You don't want to miss this game.

Naughty Dog have created an amazing movie adventure on the PS3 with unparalleled graphics, fantastic dialogue and amazing platforming elements. There is no need to wait for the film version of this game, as it's already arrived in everyone's living room. Unmissable.

Although the singleplayer campaign is entertaining enough, it is in the multiplayer that this game really shines. Almost perfectly balanced, the vehicles, destructible buildings and team-play make this game a joy to play and a must for any fans of the genre.

It's not very long, it's not very hard, but the new clever game mechanics and awesome retro inspired music soundtrack adds an incredible amount of fun to Shatter - The greatest Breakout-style game created so far!

If you're after a hard-hitting and adrenaline-fueled action experience God of War III is the ultimate game on the market, and Kratos' final battle with the gods takes the genre to new heights. 44 million dollars well spent.

Whilst improving on practically everything that wasn't up to par in the original, this sequel is really only marred by it's delayed release schedule in Europe. A must for all music lovers out there.

Red Faction: Guerrilla is a gargantuan and generous RPG/shooter with driving tendencies and tons of diverse missions that can be performed in any pace. The multiplayer is good too, and has diverse weapons, some new backpacks plus more than just the regular game types, including a hotseat mode.

The pessimist in me never thought that it was possible to make a really good game from a popular license, but Rocksteady have managed to do just that with Batman: Arkham Asylum. The game is second to none in the genre, and beats all contenders with a mighy bat-punch!

Ubisoft haven't just rebooted the Prince of Persia franchise, but they've alse reimagined the Prince and his adventures in a waterpainted praline with a distinct design that's Oh-so-tasty. Perfect platforming an a strategic emphasis on the hand-picked battles make this adventure an absolute must for everyone who loves a good adventure.

Braid is a fantastic gaming experience that PS3 owners have missed out of for far too long. It's depth is only surpassed by the engaging puzzles.

Comet Crash is so much more than first meets the eye. I expected a simple tower defense game, that did not look too good. Instead I found a full blown RTS that even entails a few unique features. Way to go, Pelfast!

Old fans of the series may not be expecting a game like this, but Fallout 3 is ambitious and more than lives up to the high standard it sets, and will be enjoyed by both newcomers and veteran Fallout players. Bethesda have managed to create a sturdy strategic element to the first person perspecitve but have ultimately failed in creating believable characters, which may disappoint some.

Adorable graphics and very solid gameplay mechanics create the best puzzler on the Playstation 3. The learning curve creates an increasingly difficult game, and sometimes it feels as if too many gameplay variables are introduced, but for the bargain price this is a must-buy for any puzzle-fan.

DJ Hero has managed to take the rhythm action genre yet another step forward with it's smart and simplified DJ controls and delightful remixes. This is the easiest way to feel like a real DJ right now without having to pursue such a career.

Heavy Rain manages to create an atmosphere unlike any other, and many of its scenes are more thrilling and engaging than anything else I've ever played. Despite the slightly clunky controls and some parts of the story not meshing properly, Quantic Dream have created a game that breaks the norm. By being normal.

PlayStation 3 players are in for a treat when they descend into Rapture for the first time. The story may be linear, but it's extremely engaging, and the 1950's design is sublime.

Assassin's Creed II is such an improvement compared to its predecessor that it feels like a completely new game, rather than just a sequel. The varied missions really shine and the narrative is very effective, in all it's Forrest Gump-esque glory. Despite the quite slow start, Ezios adventures in beautiful Florence and Venice both look and feel amazing, and are well worth experiencing to the very end.

Street Fighter IV brings back a refreshing wind of kicks and punches to the genre. It has placed itself amongst the top five beat 'em ups ever, with gorgeous graphics and highly advanced gameplay. The only drawback is the lack of more offline content and an online tournament mode. But who cares when you once again can set up perfect Hadouken in your mates face, but this time in glorious HD.

It's impossible not to love Katamari completely, despite the fact that the concept, camera and controls hardly have evolved at all.

Bomberman Ultra is exactly what we want from the Bomberman concept. Easy, highly detailed game configuration and loads of fun and yelling out of frustration, delight or simple anger. Many Bomberman games in the last decade have been disappointments. This one isn't one at all. It's excellent.

This game has it all, weird bosses, old school 2D sprite graphics and satisfactory droid destruction. A sweet blast from the past that reminds us about the glory days of the Megadrive (Genesis). You can't go wrong with Gunstar Heroes.

Dragon Age: Origins should appeal to all those RPG fans out there who believe that a good and compelling story weighs way heavier than the mindless beating of countless enemies. This game might entail the best RPG story there is on the PS3 - and is well worth every one of the 100+ hours you'll spend playing it.

While the heavily scripted and way too short campaign is a disappointment, the new Spec-Ops mode, especially when played in co-op, and the great multilayer make up for it. The polish shines through in every aspect, from the graphics and sound to the controls and multiplayer balancing. Prepare yourself for a game that is sure to take you on a thrilling ride.

Go back 5 years and you'll realize why the Call of Duty franchise is so incredibly popular. The first Call of Dity game became an instant classic with its epic story telling and intense gameplay. Now it's back, with polished HD graphics and the same amazing multiplayer. A must-have in your collection if you, for some reason, missed the mother of all CoD games.

It's an amazing feeling to be able to play MegaMan again. The story, the music and the courses all live up to the myth, but why does it have to be so hard?

The beautiful flow of the game on the pitch makes this arguably the greatest football game yet, and a few problems with the online component and manager mode can't stop this from being an essential purchase for all fans of digital soccer.

The Beatles: Rock Band is filled with charm, authenticity and the exact right feeling that's required for an excellent Beatles experience. The option to have 3 vocalists means that the multiplayer actually extends to 6 players at a party, and even though the songs in the late part of the game aren't as engaging this game won't disappoint any fans of their music.

The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena is a fun and thrilling game with lots of surprises. It comes bundled with a remake of Escape from Butcher Bay which is a nice touch, and the newly added multiplayer feature adds more hours to your gaming experience. The dark settings provides tense environments, even though it's a bit rough around the edges, but the sound and voice acting is top notch! Turn up your subwoofers for a Vin Diesel bonanza - this one's a keeper for all scifi action fans.

Taking inspiration from games such as Grand Theft Auto IV and Assassin's Creed, The Saboteur lacks the polish of either of those titles. However, the end result is greater than the sum of its parts, and Pandemic Studios last game is a charming and entertaining sandbox-title, with a nice graphical touch.

Yakuza 3 sets its own pace with its heartwarming story about modern day Japan. And beyond the lovingly created Shinjuku pastiche lies a well-crafted fighting game that can hold its own. Colour us impressed.

Fat Princess is an amazing concept that should have had a longer beta test, so that the bugs could have been ironed out. But the more they're fixed the better the game gets, and this may well become a really successful franchise.

With its gorgeous celshaded graphics, Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm manages to blur out the difference between anime and games, and creates a seamless gaming experience that is both delightful and fun to play. The only real downside is the simplicity of the controls and the lack of online modes, but who cares when fighting is this enjoyable?

With its mash-up of Event Horizon and the first two Alien movies, Dead Space creates a visceral and haunting experience that verges more on action than on horror. Despite its low replayability and linear story-telling, Dead Space is an excellent example of what an action game should be - a combination of high-adrenaline sequences and innovative design statements, in this case the brilliant user interface and the necromorph monsters.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2: Age of Heroes is a new acquaintance of mine and it's far too hard for our taste. The controls are exact, but difficult to master. This is considered the ultimate tactical fighting game, according to many, and we are inclined to agree. Well worth the money.

Far Cry 2 feels little like the original, but its political story and expansive vistas still make it stand out as a game of its own. The large story mode and full-fledged online capabilities make Far Cry 2 one of the best first person shooters of 2008.

The terrain alterations in Fracture are more than a gimmick, and actually change the way the game is played in more ways than one. The game promises to change the way we approach obstacles and manages to fulfill that promise completely, making this new-fangled feature one to look out for in future games.

Despite being extremely linear and not having a lot aside from the main story itself, Final Fantasy XIII impresses on most levels - especially when it comes to the amazing graphics and the well thought-out battle system. While the 50+ hours it takes to complete the game may sound daunting, they really do fly past - something that can't be said about a lot of things these days.

With Borderlands, Gearbox promised us a unique gameplay in what they call RPS - Role Playing Shooter, and they also promised us a brand new visual experience with cartoon-styled graphics and stunning colors. And they delivered both. However, they didn't manage to deliver compelling story or a vibrant world full of people and amiable characters.

A superb mix between Zelda and God of War that's immensely entertaining, even though there are a few bugs that detract a little from the overall enjoyment.

Despite the name, this is more of a puzzle-game than a shooter, and the wonderful fluid-physics create a very enjoyable experience, although the game is fairly short and much to easy. For the price though it is still a good game and a nice addition to the PixelJunk-series.

This is the best part of the series so far. EA has found a winning formula for making ice hockey games. The new additions of board playing and fighting after the referees whistle makes it even more realistic.

Capcom's latest adventure focuses more on action than on horror and puzzle solving, but still manages to retain the classic Resident Evil feel. Some elements are baffling, such as the African setting and the fact that you have to stand still during battles and can't purchase ammunition, but overall this is a well-made game that deserves to be played. A bit more innovation wouldn't have hurt though.

The gaming mechanics and the polish really impress, but the story never reaches as high as the first game. But despite that I'd like to visit Rapture time and time again. More sequels please.

Heaps of new songs, a solid online experience and well-constructed drums make Guitar Hero: World Tour an enjoyable music game that works well at parties. Some more streamlined menu controls would be nice, but overall the game delivers an excellent multiplayer experience.

Out of the 40 standard games in this collection, about half of them are really good games, and there's hours of fun to be found here. It's a pity that there's no online multiplayer, but these games should be played on the same screen anyway.

Though Valkyria Chronicles is one of the first real strategy games for the PS3, it doesn't play it safe. With original watercoloured graphics and gameplay choices, such as the command point structure, this war is not one easily forgotten.

Mini Ninjas offers a colorful and fun glimpse into the culture of ninjas. The game itself is a little bit short but it makes up for it by adding a wonderful mix of charming characters and moments that are suitable for all ages. Simply put, this is a must have if you love ninjas and Japanese culture in any way.

Heavy focus on infantry cooperation, on both squad and platoon level, can put off anyone used to a more typical Modern Warfare style of gameplay. Those willing to put some effort and time into MAG will discover a complex game with a huge number of players, which can bring great satisfaction when deployed properly. MAG currently suffers in lack of variation and few maps but those issues are easily fixed, while more irritating flaws such as server lag and graphical bugs will take longer time. Nevertheless, MAG has a great foundation from start and team players all over the world might discover an unpolished gem.

Just Cause 2 is very open when it comes to space, but not content. Nevertheless, it is a fresh gust of air that brings traditional action into something new. Forget story and common sense, Rico Rodriguez doesn’t apply to those earthly rules. “Ah, there’s my ride…”

Army of Two:The 40th day is one of the best co-op games on the market, thanks to the great controls, the smart AI and the rare gem that is vertical split screen. There's no excuse not to pick up a controller and start mowing down enemies - just do it!

This remake of the now classic Battlefield: 1942 offers high paced and fast action straight out of the virtual box. The entertainment value is enormous, even though it lacks some variation in gameplay and has minor design flaws in private game sessions.

A great, but not very new puzzle game about a marble and its way towards the goal, The music, the easy playing style and the puzzles all contributes to its greatness, but the camera controls leave a lot to be desired.

The Taxidermist captures the atmosphere from the main game, and really wets our appetite. Although it's a bit short the six different endings at least makes the DLC last a bit longer. More stuffing please!

ZEN Pinball is a blast for both fans and casual players of pinball. The four tables included are not the best out there but sweet sound and graphics along with nice multiplayer features and the possibility of new DLC material makes this one a keeper. A must have for any pinball loving PS3 owner.

Tim Schafer has created a wonderful and rich world of heavy metal for us to enjoy. His screwball sense of humour, mixed with all metal stereotypes known to man, is worth every penny. The game is as action-packed as we'd like it to be, but the storyline is far to short. We want more!

Even though it took a year longer for Rock Band to reach Europe, this music game manages to make up for lost time in only a few minutes. With its hefty instruments and a strong setting, this game really manages to capture the rock image setting. There are a few nagging problems, such as having to unlock all songs manually and locking the roles for the band members, together with the fact that the sequel is just around the corner, but as a whole, Rock Band is one of the most impressive experiences around.

Singstar Queen is all a combined Queen and Singstar fan could hope for. Some vital songs are missing, but for the most part they are all there. If you hate Queen, don’t bother, but if you would love to pick up where Freddie left off then this if for you.

Need For Speed: Shift is a major turnaround for the series, and a very successful one at that. The realistic racing and beautiful graphics complete a package that should please any racing fan.

Flower delivers a relaxing and vibrant gaming experience that borders on art. If I was a potted flower, then this is what I'd like to dream about.

Age of Booty is a competent multiplayer real-time strategy game that uses its pirate setting well. It is best played among friends on levels you designed for yourself or with strangers over the PSN. Single player levels are ok in itself, but offer no more than a tutorial and very basic gameplay.

Mega Man may not be as captivating and "new" as Mega Man 9, but the latest adventure of the Blue Bomber will not leave you disappointed. If anything, it will make you ask for more.

Trine is impressive with its beautiful and addictive platforming and Lost Vikings-esque gameplay. However, there's a lack of challenge in the early parts of the game, and the short game time leaves a bit to be desired. Frozenbyte should be applauded for their efforts though, and Trine is well worth the money.

Manhattan is infected by the same virus that gave you superpowers and a human life is worth close to nothing in your quest for revenge and truth. Prototype is is a great apocalyptic game, and it's only what it lacks in story telling and AI that prevents it from getting a higher score. Not for children, though.

Everything in Resistance 2 is bigger - all the way from the giant bosses to the 60 player online games. The arsenal is well-balanced and the gunfights are intense. Some more innovations would have been appreciated, but the shine and polish that Resistance 2 shows is more than enough for a recommendation.

This game offers such an immense variety of levels and fun gameplay that you cannot simply ignore it, even as an adult. Kids will absolutely go bananas over the fun characters, the colorful environments and the fun storyline. The only let down is a touch of the soggy control syndrome, but hey - chances are you won't care if you're a 10 year old kid.

Pro Evolution soccer is a good improvement since last year, and is more arcade based than previous years simulations. All you need to do is pick up the controller and enjoy the beautiful game.

Wakeboarding HD is of those games that's easy to pick-up and play, but this time the easy part also means that it's very good, with great controls and excellent graphics. The only thing bad is the price, which is a tad too steep.

10 hours of gameplay with crazy humour, a fun story, engaging characters and great turn-based rpg action? Yes please!

As a whole, SingStar ABBA contains 25 well known songs from the Swedish super-group. Even though the SingStar series is losing steam quickly, with a lack of wireless microphones and interesting SingStore options, this conceptual title manages to impress with its videos and slick presentation. Recommended for all ABBA fans out there.

We aren't spoilt with a multitude of western games, which is why Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood poses such a fresh gust of air. Graphically this game is excellent, and if you play on the hardest level you'll encounter resistance enough to make it a challenging experience. Online mode is not as fun as it could be, though.

The simple controls and arcade playability make up for the repetitive gameplay and the low-quality graphics. Both the story and the boss battles make this an enjoyable experience that doesn't need to rely on a movie license to stand on its own two feet.

It's the voice command function that makes Tom Clancy's EndWar really shine, and it brings a fluidity and ease-of-use that will hopefully become the standard for console RTS games in the future.

SSFIITHDR is by no means a bad game, but to release this in Europe just hours before the Street Fighter IV launch is just inconsiderate, and Capcom have managed to outmaneuver themselves. However, there's lots of exciting fighting to be had in this game, and the graphics look just like we imagined that they did back in the days.

Rag Doll Kung Fu: Fists of Plastic is a fun little Super Smash Bros clone that is well worth downloading if you feel like beating up your friends. What it lacks in online functionality it makes up for in variation and fun gameplay. It may be a bit boring if you play alone, but it's fun when three of your pals are around.

Crash Commando is a retro-infused 2D shooter with a furious pace, responsive controls and an impressive arsenal. The single-player experience doesn't encompass much more than a boot camp though, but it's during the multiplayer bouts that this game really shines - especially with the gory visuals.

MX vs ATV Reflex is a competent game with an innovative new way of steering your bike and your rider, despite slightly awkward controls. Good graphics and fast, hardcore racing are the real highlights.

A Kratos in Crusaders clothing, Dante's Inferno isn't much more than a carbon copy of the God of War series, which is a pity since the setting is impressive and the series has a lot of potential. Dante said it best himself: "I cannot well repeat how there I entered, So full was I of slumber at the moment. In which I had abandoned the true way".

In single player mode, Zombie Apocalypse is not only hard - but it gets a bit boring after a few hours. This game is yet another one of those PSN-games that focuses on smooth multiplayer mechanics, which is welcomed - especially as we get to slaughter zombies.

Revenge of the Wounded Dragons is a good little Double Dragon-fighter that is best (and easiest) when played with a friend. No online mode and a little odd control issues at times still cannot change that this is solid two player entertainment that's well worth its price.

It may not be very original, and the framerate isn't very good, but at the end of the day this is an entertaining game for both kids and adults.

White Knight Chronicles: International Edition is a solid role playing game, and the battle system hardly even feels like it's turn based. All the item collecting parts really helps the offline part, but it's the village building and the online gaming that really makes the game fun.

Greed Corp is the PSN-version of the strategy board game that never was. Although its game mechanics is both simple enough to learn fast and complex enough to make even the AI tough opponents – it doesn’t offer enough variety to make it “that great strategy game” I just have to keep on playing.

As a parkour simulator, Mirror's Edge is a force to be reckoned with, revolutionizing the first person genre with its fluid motions and the gaming market with its distinct design. But as a platforming and action game it leaves a lot to be desired, and theunforgiving control and haphazard placement of checkpoints are infuriating. Mirror's Edge could and should be amazing, but doesn't manage to be better than good.

By taking the Hero franchise to pop songs Activision have managed to get one step closer to the SingStar concept, and the old rock songs are a distant memory. It's about time.

If you look beyond the fighting parts you'll find a great game for the fans of the series. For all others, the puzzles and the story is still challenging enough for it to be worth your while.

Despite fulfilling all the promises they made to fans of the first game - split screen action, more vehicles on screen and larger levels - Evolution Studios haven't really dared to do too many new things. The graphics haven't been sharpened enough and the game feels more like MotorStorm 1.5 than a sequel. Fun, but not much more.

3 on 3 NHL Arcade is a fun little hockey tackle game for 2+ persons. Playing solo gets a bit boring after a short while, but with a bunch of friends, in your living room or online, 3 on 3 offers a great deal of entertainment and competition. On the downside the settings have to be configured every time and aren't saved for future sessions, and the music and menu sounds are annoying.

The Tekken series has aged surprisingly well in it's core, with quicker gameplay and an impressive roster. But time has taken it's toll, and it does feel a little old. Also, the campaign mode is nothing short of awful.

The Godfather II brings mob strategy and action together, and does neither thing great. It is still, however, a game you cannot leave that easily – with an interesting gaming concept around made men, intimidation strategies and other mob oriented modes of play.

Rolling and tumbling through the sky in a supersonic aircraft is converted into pure awesomeness in H.A.W.X. Its fast-paced arcade gameplay and stunning graphics offer lots of joy for all kinds of players, but the thin online content and lack of a cooperative mode is a huge disappointment.

Disgaea 3 is a weird, twisted and enormously fun game. It brings back the lost genre of strategic role-playing with a huge portion of japanophilia, which is also the main reason why it's not suitable for all players. It's an awesome combination though, if you're a Japan buff with an urge for 2D-sprites and lots of laughs.

EyePet is probably the best game for children on the PS3 right now. With no violence and lots of small tasks to perform together with your furry friend it's suitable for children from 5 and up. Although some basic knowledge in English is good, it works fine if an adult explains what is not already expressed by the good professor.

It's difficult not to like inFamous. The open air feel more than makes up for the uninspired story, with repetitive quests and average boss battles, and the uneven quality of the graphics. However, the karma system is flawed and Empire City is hardly bustling with life, but at least the game is fun while it lasts. And the scale of the city is very impressive, especially when you perform a Thunder Drop from high altitudes.

This return to classic tactical multiplayer without vehicles should be welcomed by fans of the series. Newcomers may love it, but without a singleplayer campaign expectations should include readiness to work hard and die a lot. The game looks, sounds and feels nice, headsets work fine, servers are full, and regular patches will hopefully take care of those pesky little bugs.

For the fans Guitar Hero: Metallica is a must have, but even for non-lovers like us there's fun to be had - especially when it comes to the more well known hits. The addition of an extra mode and easier ways to unlock the songs is appreciated, but how come we can't play downloaded songs (apart from Death Magnetic) via this game?

Sonic & SEGA All-stars Racing is a fast and furious game that works great both when you're alone or have some racing-hungry friends over - providing you don't already have the ultimate Kart racer on the market.

Topatoi: The Great Tree Story is a time travel back to the days of Gods and The Lost Vikings on the Amiga System. With the innovative gyroscopic machine, the GEMMA, that Raph handles we get a great gaming experience with many interesting challenges. However, the story is too short and perhaps too easy and the arcade mode isn't fun enough to keep you playing after the game has been completed.

The intensity of the battles and the powerful use of sound is what makes World at War really shine, together with the impressive multiplayer options (including the amazing Nazi Zombies mode). But at the end of the day, the clichéd World War 2 setting stops this game from achieving greatness.
