Ice hockey games are great, especially when a fight breaks out - nothing better than smacking someone round the head with a big glove.
I’m not the world’s biggest fan of the sport, but I can see the appeal in battering around a small puck with wooden sticks, even if most of this country can’t.

Jumper From £11.99
14 May
I wonder if there will ever be a really decent game based on a film (I’m discounting The Godfather as it came out ages after the film did!)?
Jumper is another mediocre attempt at bridging the divide between the two mediums - to put it mildly, it stinks.

The Shield £8.99
14 May
The Shield, on the PS2, is based on the television series of the same name.
Keep the streets clean by using your own brand of justice - the Vic Makey way.

Guitar Hero £17.98
13 May
The very first game in the Guitar Hero series has a good selection of songs to play along to - from David Bowie through to Ozzy Osbourne, and eveything in between.
I’d recommend picking this up while it’s in stock, as not many places have copies left.

The Golden Compass £4.99
12 May
The Golden Compass wasn’t that well received as a film, and the less said about the game the better.
Sometimes movie tie-in titles are average, but this isn’t even that good!

Swords Of Destiny £4.99
12 May
Swords Of Destiny has been dropping in price for quite some time now - there’s nothing wrong with it, just it’s a bit old!
The story is the age-old tale of a man fighting to vanquish evil in order to save the world (nothing new there then).
DVD.co.uk have reduced this PS2 game to just £4.99 - for more details, click here.

Ape Escape 3 £13.99
11 May
Ape Escape 3 continues to elaborate upon the core theme of the Ape Escape series: capturing monkeys. Although staying faithful to the originality of this hit franchise, Ape Escape 3 brings additional advances to the Ape Escape series.
Packed with more content than any former Ape Escape title, Ape Escape 3 has a full twenty-eight stages (136 total areas, compared with eighty-four for the previous installment) and lots of mini games.
Boasting over 430 monkeys to capture, Ape Escape 3 calls upon the skills of seasoned monkey-catchers Satoru and Sayaka who both feature as playable characters. Additionally, our heroes now have a wardrobe of super-powered costumes to select from, each with new powers and abilities. Choose from 7 varied attires, depending upon the situation - use Sayaka’s Cowgirl outfit to administer hot leaden justice from your twin six-shooters, or give the monkeys a gothic kicking with Satoru’s knight armour, finished with shield and lance.
