The combination of combat on foot and in the air via jet-pack set in a mysterious alien void made me sit up and take notice.

The concept of this game is brilliant as you switch from jet-pack dog-fighting to on the floor combat, the mechanics of both equally as good.

Apologies for not bringing you this title in the Christmas round-up, but there have been so many games lately we have literally been drowning in a sea of Japanese RPG's and Wii party games!

When it comes to family party games, the Scene It! franchise is just the job for when you have friends over or fancy some good family fun.

If you haven't heard of Bayonetta, I applaud you! That means you have avoided the internet, TV and magazine saturation of the past two weeks.

Never has a game perplexed me more than this one.

It's easy to look straight at the iffy graphics and diabolical voice acting and head straight for the off switch.

If you thought it was impossible for anything to be more macabre than the Saw films then think again because the game is even worse!

You play as Detective David Tapp and you are Jigsaw's latest torture victim. He has rather kindly inserted a key inside you.

There is little point in me going through the usual drill regarding GTA.

Everyone knows about this game now. Perhaps the most controversial game of all time, but also one of the best.

2K games have come up trumps with what they are billing as the first ever 'Role Play Shooter' - a true hybrid between an RPG and FPS.

I'm not so sure that is the case. Fallout 3 for me was probably a lot closer to being a true pioneer in that sense.

Sometimes games just come along that are that good you simply don't know where to start when reviewing them.

This is one of those games.

Epic storyline, huge multiplayer fun and potential, and graphics to die for.

Throw in suspense, realism, fear, angst, gung-ho brilliance, excitement and even disgust and you are getting close.

KNEE-high leather boots, sweaty bodies, grunts and groans - it could only mean one thing.

AFTER more years than I care to remember of playing the Tekken Series I confidently put the much-heralded new arrival in the 360 and told my 11 year-old daughter to prepare for a gaming education.
