The XBox 360 Wireless Controller (Light Blue) does exactly what it says on the tin – lets you play XBox 360 games. It’s much better than the original XBox controller, as you can actually hold this one comfortably.

Here’s a suprise for you – the XBox 360 Wireless Controller (Pink) is exactly the same as the Light Blue one, but in a different colour! Amazing!

MX Vs ATV: Untamed gives you the option of competing on either motorbikes or monster trucks. My personal preference is the latter, as there’s nothing better than a truck on huge wheels. Except a bigger truck on bigger wheels, perhaps.

Once you’ve won all eight of the different Championship modes, take it online and beat your friends. Heck, beat your enemies while you’re at it as well.

There’s been some Zavvi reductions that I thought might be of interest.

I still can’t get used to that Zavvi name, by the way – sounds like the name of some celebrity’s child, not the artist formerly known as Virgin Megastores.

Just the other day Microsoft announced that there would be a new XBox 360 replacing the Premium version. It’s the XBox 360 60GB Premium console, which has a hard drive three times the size of the current one.

This is actually officially out on Friday, so if you get your order in now then there’s a good chance that you’ll have it before then. Wonderful.

So many first-person shooters to choose from, so little time. Shadowrun is yet another one (yes, I can hear you groaning), but is slightly different in that it’s based on the much-loved role-playing game franchise of the same name.

This is a team-based combat title which blends modern weaponry with ancient magic. Interestingly, the online mode lets not only XBox Live players join in, but Windows Live players as well – meaning you could team up with a friend who owns a PC. Great idea.

Instore at Toys R Us you can get this XBox 360 game for £6.99. Makes for an interesting purchase alongside Resident Evil 4!

No More Heroes is a great game, even if we were unlucky enough to get the version with all the blood removed from it. I blame Gordon Brown – he gets the blame for everything else, so he may as well take this as well!

You play as Travis Touchdown, a bloke who finds himself being approached by an assassins’ organisation. Prove yourself worthy by defeating ten other bloodthirsty killers to make your way to the top of the assassins’ league.

If you’ve player any of the Resident Evil games and not been impressed, then Resident Evil 4 will definitely change your opinion – it’s quite simply one of the best titles ever made.

With graphics that rival any other on the PS2, a gripping storyline, creative and unique boss battles, and a character you genuinely care about, this is pure gaming joy. Good times.

Pop in to your local Toys R Us and pick this up for just £6.99.

On the market today you get get very good first person shooters (such as Bioshock), but you can also get very average ones as well. This is sadly the case with PlayStation 3 title Haze.

The team behind Timesplitters made this, so you’d expect something half-decent – what you actually get is something that looks like a bad PS2 game and plays like a car with 2 wheels (i.e. not very well).

The Megaman series has been a little hit and miss over the years – thankfully, for the next outing (on the Wii) the developers are going back to the classic 2D side-scrolling that we all know and love.

Megaman Starforce: Pegasus is quite different from other titles in the series, as it’s a turn-based battle card game – a little bit like Top Trumps. With robots. And a decent storyline to hold it all together.
