Cheap Games

Addictive games are all the rage (see The Club), and Sid Meier’s Civilization: Revolution is yet another one where you’ll be saying "just one more turn" like a broken record.

This latest in the legendary strategy series has been designed and built specifically for the next-generation consoles. Take one of 16 different civilizations and rule the world!

Click here to buy the PS3 version, or click here for the XBox 360 release – both of which are £24.99 each at Game.

Play.com are currently running a 2 PlayStation 3 games for £25 offer.

The selection is limited to just the Premium titles recently released – click here to see what’s included.

I have to recommend MotorStorm, Ratchet & Clank: Tools Of Destruction, Resistance: Fall Of Man and Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune as each are brilliant in their own way.

Sometimes Most of the time game reviewers irritate me – case in point, The Club. OK it’s not the greatest game ever made, but it’s great fun while it lasts. The multiplayer mode is great too.

The premise behind what you do in it is very simple, just shoot as many people as you can in the fastest possible time. It does become quite addictive after a while, so you have been warned!

Whenever you buy a console it’s nice to get a game or two with it. Luckily with the Wii you get Wii Sports included in the box – but how about something else as well?

Currently Game have a few different bundles to choose from. They are:

Wii console (with Wii Sports and a Wii Remote) plus a copy of Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2 £179.99

Wii console (with Wii Sports and a Wii Remote) plus a copy of Sega Superstars Tennis £179.99

Wii console (with Wii Sports and a Wii Remote) plus copies of Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2, Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity and Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz £199.99

Wii console (with Wii Sports and a Wii Remote) plus copies of Carnival: Funfair Games, Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2 and Ultimate Board Games £199.99

Wii console (with Wii Sports and a Wii Remote) plus copies of Mario Kart Wii, Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2 and Sega Superstars Tennis £219.99

My personal pick would be the last one, as Mario Kart and Sega Superstars Tennis are both pretty good. However, either of the £179.99 packs are great value as most other retailers will charge you this for the console and Wii Sports (so you’re essentially getting an extra game for free).

More specifically, there’s three games reduced in price – I’m very lazy, and it’s easier to list them than put up individual posts.

Played Grand Theft Auto IV? Fancy something similar, but different? Well then, you might very well be interested in Bully: Scholarship Edition. It’s an updated version of the PS2 title Canis Canem Edit.

The comparisons with Grand Theft Auto are obvious. Not only is it made by the same people, but the general layout of the game is very similar as well (a school instead of a city, slingshots instead of guns, etc).

base.com are selling the Wii version for £17.99 – for more information, click here.

Friends: The One With All The Trivia is a trivia game about the much-missed TV show Friends. I bet you would never have guessed that from looking at the cover.

A film may be in the works at some point, so to tide you over until it does eventually happen you can answer thousands of questions about it with this game.

Think of it like Buzz! Quiz TV, but without buzzers. And a funny bloke to guide you through the game.
