In what's becoming a fairly regular sight, yet another special edition of a game is floating around – the Gears of War 2: Game of the Year Edition being something which has sold absolute shedloads (probably even to those who already own it too!).

This comes with a copy of the fantastic original, along with all of the downloadable content that has come out so far. This includes four map packs, a completely new multiplayer experience and the "Road to Ruin" campaign chapter.

Bayonetta is an action game directed by the creator of Devil May Cry and Viewtiful Joe. Set in a fictional city in Europe, the game centres on its eponymous character who uses pistols and magical attacks in order to defeat a wide variety of different enemies.

Normally reviews are about as important as a handful of sand from the sea, but this has received full marks from both Famitsu and Edge – two magazines which very infrequently give out top rankings (the latter has only done it ten times in its sixteen year history).

Tony Hawk: Ride is the tenth entry in the skateboarding series, though it's worth pointing out straight away that some consider this to be the worst by quite a bit – mainly down to the very hit-and-miss skateboard peripheral that comes supplied with it.

While reviewers have been incredibly critical of the game, it's worth noting that a sequel is on the way – proving that at least some people must have enjoyed it (though the learning curve is a bit too steep for some).

Sick of your batteries running out whilst playing your XBox 360? Well then, it sounds like you need to invest in some rechargeable batteries and an XBox 360 Play and Charge Kit.

This XBox 360 Play and Charge Kit comes in white, to match the Arcade and Pro consoles – however, it works just fine on every other wireless controller for the console too (it just looks better when it matches the console!).

As the sixth entry in a long-established series you'd think that Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction might struggle to live up to expectations – so it's good that the game is probably one of the best you'll play in 2010 (until Modern Warfare 3 appears, I suppose!).

Taking place three years after the events of Splinter Cell: Double Agent, Sam Fisher must work with old friends he can no longer trust so that he can finally discover once and for all who killed his daughter…

UFC 2009: Undisputed is a mixed martial arts video game that features properties and fighters from the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Although previous titles based on the sport have been average at best, thankfully this has turned out to be the MMA equivalent of FIFA or Pro Evolution – completely unmissable, in other words.

Over 100 personalties are included, with over 80 different fighters from all five weight classes and non-fighters like broadcasters Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan – as well as announcer Bruce Buffer (half-brother of Michael "Let's get ready to rumble!" Buffer).

Rabbids Go Home is the third entry in the Rayman spin-off, but is the first not to feature Rayman himself – don't worry if you're a fan of him though, as it has been confirmed that he will be returning for more action/adventure games in the future.

Tired of partying, but anable to work out where they came from originally, the Rabbids decide to go to the moon. Two of them start this journey by going on a quest to build a giant tower of junk in order to be able to reach the moon, and this is where you take control…

As the era of the nation-state draws quickly to a close, the rules of warfare evolve even more rapidly. More and more nations become increasingly dependent on the Private Military Companies, elite mercenaries with a lax view of the law, and they in turn become authorised to serve in every aspect of military operations…

Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X. combines cutting-edge technology with devastating firepower and intense dogfights to provide an experience like no other. Once you've mastered the single player campaign, why not get a friend round and whip their arse as well?!?
