  • 360 #AlanWake Thriller/horror game with captivating story.Atmospheric audio & gameplay and some great scare moments. It's wierd at times. Rating: 7
  • 360 #StarTrek Legacy The Ships look, play, sound like they should, it's flawed but for a Star Trek fan, worth playing if you get it cheap. Rating: 4
  • XBLA #DefenseGrid WANTED: Aliens to run & die in wave after wave. Will Supply own towers to slow your progress. Awesome and cheap game. Rating: 9
  • XBLA #ShadowComplex It's much more than a 2D platform shooter. It has more features, powerups & a better story than most full price games. Rating: 8
  • 360 #Forza2 A very good Racing Sim, but not as good as #Forza3. If you are on a budget, this is the one too go for. Loads of Cars on offer Rating: 6
  • 360 #RedDeadRedemption MP Connection issues at the moment, lets down a fantastic MP experience,riding around as a Posse is just great fun. Rating: 5
  • 360 #RedDeadRedemption SP Awesome Wild West Free Roam with Gunplay and Horses. The same control flaws as GTA. Never feel part of the Story Rating: 8
  • 360 #CallofDuty4 MP It's like the #WoW of FPS games. Fast paced, hard at the lower levels, but gets easier, Be prepared to die a lot. Rating: 8
  • 360 #CallofDuty4:MW SP It's very short but quite intense, Story has some nice twists and levels, Sound is great and the graphics are ok. Rating: 7
  • 360 #NinjaGaiden2 Get too slash limbs off other Ninjas,learn new skills. The boss fight,everything you learnt before is useless.Too HARD. Rating: 2
  • PC #GuildWars Over 7579 hrs playtime.Wonderful setting,graphics,sound & interesting skills. It really should be played before #GuildWars2 Rating: 9
  • 360 #QuantumOfSolace MP It's loosely based on the #CallofDuty MP, with weapon upgrades etc, but its really fast paced, sometimes too fast Rating: 4
  • 360 #QuantumOfSolace SP Best James Bond game in a LONG time, follows the recent films well. Has some great Stealth and Gun play sections. Rating: 7
  • 360 #Oblivion It's big and open you are never sure what to do next.It's a wonderful game,great RPG and story.But why is the grass so tall? Rating: 7

  • PC #DawnofWar2 It's a strange game,feels more like an RPG than a RTS at times. The FREE DLC has made this game a classic. Great fun. Rating: 8
  • 360 #TheGoldenCompass You get fight as a BIG KICK ASS White BEAR. For about 5 minutes before you switch off your 360 and watch paint dry. Rating: 0
  • 360 #DeadRising Running around killing Zombies with anything you can get your hands on,what could go wrong?Hours between SAVES,that's what Rating: 2

  • 360 #PrinceofPersia Fun, Funny, but overall tedious, has some good moments, but I got bored after a short time. Worth £10. But overall Rating: 4
  • 360 #Fallout3 A very addictive & long game, Great RPG elements & BIG GUNS & story.It's post holocaust,but next time, add some more colour. Rating: 9
  • 360 #Bioshock2 Not so Scary FPS. It's just like playing #Bioshock all over again, but this time, I really had no idea what was going on. Rating: 7
