Whilst Bioshock 2 may feel very similar to the original game, it does expand on the characters and story that were introduced in the original game and once again allows you to create a very customisable playing experience through the use of Plasmids and Tonics.

On the face of things, Need for Speed: hot Pursuit seems like a fairly standard racing game. However, the break neck speed the game runs at combined with the prospect of being involved in Burnout style smash-ups and the pressure of the police presence really help make this one of the most engrossing arcade racers in a long time.

This is thoroughly deserving of a place in your DS slot and you’ll probably still be playing this when they actually invent warp drive engines!

Sure, it won’t be to all tastes, and it seems to do everything it can to put you off from the start, but for those with a taste for original ideas and an eye for careful design, Darwinia+ should be near the top of your download queue.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 - Vietnam transports players to a whole new setting and delivers the same large scale, intense action fans expect, but yet expands the experience by emphasizing team play and skill to make it a truly worthy add-on.

No game, however has managed to bond together two completely different games into one storyline and actually make it work. Second Sight is an exception.

Each element fits in perfectly, however the amount of time the game requires you to put in may put off more casual gamers, but it's definitely a classic for strategy enthusiasts.

The game's sound also deserves top marks with unique environmental fitting music and excellent combat sound effects.

The overall game could be completed in a short space of time that doesn't do much for its replay value.

Music in the game is tense sounding but has a generic feel to it.

If only we could arrange some sort of trade-off, whereby each decimal point of the score I have awarded could be traded for a thousand Americans not using the word ‘soccer’.

Everything or Nothing had the potential to be a great game but feels a little like a jigsaw puzzle that hasn’t been put together right.

Animation is fluid and the games frame rate manages to stay consistent no matter how frantic action become.

Adds a real challenge to the game and makes things more difficult than they ever have been.

In no way ground breaking [but] it puts in a solid performance and its 3D sci-fi setting will be a welcome break for many from the now standard World War II setting.

The storyline is nothing outstanding but it serves its purpose and sets the scene for the adventures and battles that are to follow.

During play you can’t help thinking there’s more to come but unfortunately, as good as the game is; there isn’t.

The games sound by far outshines the graphics with everything from idle non playable character conversations to discreet footsteps pacing through the dark environments.

The games only real faults lie in the ground missions, while they could have easily been solved with a little time from the developer and will probably annoy casual gamers they shouldn’t be enough to spoil the game for real Star Wars fans who should get plenty of enjoyment out of the games missions and bonus features.

Not far from the best adventure game I have played. The peaceful surroundings and varied solutions to the puzzles mean you could begin to wish you were actually stranded there yourself!

The great thing about Sly 2 is that it never seems to get boring, you are always pushing ahead to unravel more of the story and to get that little bit further to the end (which incidentally is a long, long way from the start!) and with the free roaming environments, great controls and unique, switch-able characters.

Offering so many well implemented elements of gameplay into a title along with stunning graphics and nicely set out controls is sure to be a winner and Jak 3 does everything so well you cant help but enjoy it.

After overcoming the games tricky controls you are quickly pulled into the action and the games story.

The game provides plenty of thrills for those looking for a quick slice of action and is truly a playground of destruction!
