Cheap Games

Ninjatown is a tower defence strategy game. This basically means that the goal is to stop enemies from crossing the map by building towers which shoot at them as they pass – albeit this time it's ninja huts being created which contain hordes of ninjas.

Strangely this was nominated for a whole host of awards in 2008, and yet it's never really reached any huge level of popularity. Perhaps this ridiculously low price will go some way to making sure more people get to play one of the greatest cheap games ever seen on a handheld system…

Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time is the final entry in the "Future" trilogy, and is strongly rumored to the last Ratchet and Clank game ever to be produced – which would be sad news if it turns out to be true, as the series has been mostly excellent since it began in 2002.

While this is certainly one of the best titles of the franchise, there's not a whole lot of new innovations. However, this isn't necessarily a bad thing, because it's still a quality platformer with a superb combat system and decent puzzles (not to mention some lovely graphics as well).

After the massive success of Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures, it was inevitable that a sequel would make an appearance at some point – which means the arrival of Lego Indiana Jones 2: The Adventure Continues shouldn't be that much of a surprise.

Not only can now play through areas from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, but the first three original (and much better!) movies too. The gameplay is much the same as before, so nothing too challenging – which means younger gamers can join in the fun too.

HMV are selling this PSP title for £14.99 – click here for more details. The same retailer also has the PlayStation 3 (click here), Wii (click here) and XBox 360 (click here) versions at the slightly higher price of £17.99 each.

Without a shadow of a doubt, Batman: Arkham Asylum is the best superhero game that has ever been made – that is, until Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 is released and blows it out of the water (here's hoping!). Easily a contender for game of 2009, this is an essential addition to anyone's collection.

The Batman: Arkham Asylum – Collector's Edition set contains a copy of the game, along with some additional bonus goodies. These include a 14" Batarang with stand, a "behind the scenes" DVD, 48 pages of notes on Arkham's inmates, and a code to download the exclusive "Crime Alley" map.

The Rock Band Song Pack 2 release is a collection of 20 of the best tracks from both Rock Band and Rock Band 2 – without needing either game in order to be able to play along with them (although you'll need at least one of the instruments!).

Whilst some of the artists might not be to everyone's tastes (hello Angels and Airwaves and Avenged Sevenfold), this serves as an excellent introduction to the addictive madness that is Rock Band.

Amazon have this XBox 360 title available for £7.99 – for more information, click here.
