Halo 3 £11.99
11 Sep
Even though it’s been out for more than a year now, Halo 3 is still one of the most-played online multiplayer games on the XBox 360. I believe that the second one is also still the most popular online title still being played on the original XBox.
Many feared that the hype surrounding the release of the game would result in a letdown of epic proportions, but happily it’s one of the single best gaming experiences you will ever have on any console. How in the heck do they top this?!?

In what’s becoming a fairly regular sight, yet another special edition of a game is due for release – the Gears Of War 2: Game Of The Year Edition being something which will more than likely sell 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.

Despite the fact that there is a sequel coming out at the end of 2009, the team behind Left 4 Dead are adamant that they will still support the original – whether this turns out to be true or not remains to be seen (although more downloadable content has just been released).
The Left 4 Dead: Game Of The Year Edition contains a collection of new stuff to enjoy in an already fantastic title. Headlining this is the new Survival mode, along with a couple of additional Versus campaigns.

After being rumored for some time, the Sony PlayStation 3 120GB slim console was officially released the other day. Not only is this much smaller in size than the current 80GB model, but you also get an additional 40GB of hard drive space on which to store stuff.
The main criticism of this is that it looks a wee bit on the ugly side, but I’m sure that most people won’t give a damn! It consumes less power as well, which means you’ll be doing your bit for the environment (sort of).

Battlefield: Bad Company is another first-person shooter – before you run to the hills screaming "when will it end?", I should point out that it’s actually quite good. Maybe not as good as Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, but still miles better than many other games in the genre.
The single player campaign is fairly standard stuff, however it’s the online multiplayer mode where this title comes into its own. With support for up to 24 players (!), I can only imagine how great the battles are.

Whilst rail shooters may have seemed like a thing of the past, thanks to the Wii’s unique control scheme they are now back with a vengeance. The House Of The Dead: Overkill is the latest genre release, and is perhaps the best one on the console thus far.
With fast-paced, yet simple, gameplay and an over-the-top grindhouse style this is great fun either alone or with a friend. Be warned that the profanity comes thick and fast from the moment you pop the disc in – so much so that it’s in line to receive a Guinness World Record!

Grand Theft Auto IV £14.95
02 Sep
After being announced some time before the game’s release, downloadable content is now available for the XBox 360 version of Grand Theft Auto IV next year. The first episode, titled "The Lost And The Damned", features a member of Liberty City’s biker gang, The Lost – "The Ballad Of Gay Tony" is due out in October.
Before that though, you can enjoy what the game itself has to offer. Not only is it more in-depth and time-consuming than ever before, but this is also the first in the series to feature online play – and what fun it is as well.

Ridge Racer 7 £6.99
31 Aug
Ridge Racer 7 is exclusive to the PlayStation 3, but other console owners needn’t worry – it’s pretty average. It was one of the launch games, so it’s fair to cut it a little slack.
Choose from about 40 different cars to race around 22 courses, and then take it online and beat your friends. Heck, beat your enemies while you’re at it!
HMV have this game available for £6.99 – for more information, click here.
Wii Speak £7.39
30 Aug
Wii Speak is a microphone accessory for the Nintendo Wii that can be placed near the video display to allow voice chat to be conducted with the entire room – the only drawback being that it will only work on a very select number of games at the moment.
Actually, only Animal Crossing: Let’s Go To The City and The Conduit are the titles that are compatible, with The Grinder and Endless Ocean 2 planning to make full use of the device when they are released.
