Cheap Games

The Halo series of games, exclusive to XBox consoles, has been a fantastic journey thus far. Halo 3 was hotly anticipated for some time, and Bungie and company didn’t let us down – it’s one of the best titles available for the XBox 360.

The Halo 3: Legendary Edition contains a copy of the game, two discs full of bonus content (which have "making of" documentaries, behind-the-scenes videos and a brilliant option to watch remastered cinematic material from the first two Halo games), some storyboard art – all found in a collectible Spartan helmet case.

If you fancy this set, click here to get it for the incredibly low price of £33.95 delivered from Simply Games.

It’s unusual for a game to invent a new genre, but PaRappa The Rapper did just that – creating the music and rhythm stuff that has been used in many games since.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the release of the original, this PSP title is faithful in every respect. The only real additions are the ability to compete against other players via wireless head-to-head battles, and there’s also some new songs to download.

Kim Possible: Global Gemini, on the DS, is based on the Disney TV show Kim Possible (surprisingly enough). Kids everywhere should love this, but I’m thinking that girls will probably like it more than boys. I could be wrong though.

When Gemini escapes from jail, it’s up to you to stop him from rebuilding his evil empire and brainwashing Global Stations around the world. Travel the world and bring Gemini to justice!

The bad news is that you’ll probably end up spending ore money, the good news is that there’s yet another sale on – this time it’s a BlahDVD sale that has a few things of interest.

Killzone: Liberation £4.99

With Killzone 2 coming up soon for the PlayStation 3, PSP owners may wish to take a look at Killzone: Liberation (especially at this ridiculously low price). It’s exclusively on the handheld system as well, which is nice.

Following the end of the very first Killzone, the battle against the Helghast is still raging on. Metrac (the Helghast General) is employing brutal measures in order to seize the initiative – returning as Templar, it’s your job to save hostages captured by the maniac… whilst ISA troops continue the fight for liberty.

Dark Sector £19.99

I’d hate to be an assassin. There’s all the usual things you have to worry about like making sure you do your job properly and carrying out someone’s orders even if you disagree strongly with them – but you have the added pressure of having to kill someone. Which is never nice.

Anyway, Dark Sector sees you taking the role of Hayden Tenno who has been sent on a mission to get rid of someone in Lasria (in Eastern Europe). When he is attacked by an unseen enemy, our character awakens to find that he has inhuman powers – now he must evolve with these abilities to survive and become a hero.

To get the PS3 version click here, and to buy the XBox 360 release click here – both are £19.99 each at Game.

Top Spin 3 £25

Top Spin 3 being available for a good price is quite apt, what with Wimbledon being on and everything. The fact that this is the Wii version is even better – it means you can look like a wally whilst playing it!

Sadly there’s no online multiplayer mode, but you can play as over 20 top-ranked players and compete in 11 challenging tournament events. There’s also the common site of a bunch of mini-games thrown in for good measure.

I like the DS. I like the DS a lot – probably because it’s the first handheld I’ve ever owned (never been a big fan of them up until now). The variety of game on offer helps as well.

There’s many different colours available, so if you’re particularly fond of a certain colour you’ll more than likely be able to get a DS console which matches it.

Instore at Asda there’s a great deal running – get the Nintendo DS Lite (any colour) with copies of High School Musical: Makin’ The Cut and The Legend Of Spyro: The Eternal Night for £95. Fantastic!

Okami £24.99

Okami was a big hit when it was released on the PlayStation 2 – with its simply stunning visuals and revolutionary design, along with an immersive gameplay experience, this is well worth getting.

Now its out on the Wii, this title gets its own unique control scheme. Use the Wii Remote much like you would use a paint brush or sword.
