In most games with the option, you can choose whether to play a solo mission or a two-player variation - in Army Of Two you have no choice but to work with a partner. I’d highly suggest getting a friend to play, as the computer is fairly crap.
If it’s not enough for you to defeat a whole heap of baddies, take it online and battle against other teams of players from all over the world via the wireless network.

MotorStorm £11.99
13 Jun
The PlayStation 3 has been out for just over a year now, but MotorStorm still stands tall as one of the best racing games available for the console. It’s probably a lot to do with the excitement of the online multiplayer mode, I imagine.
An offroad racing title with a difference, this has fully destructible vehicles and environments, stunning scenery and real-time track deformation. This means that you can not only defeat your opponents, but blow them up as well - nice!
Grainger Games have this game available for £11.99 delivered - for more information, click here.
Mass Effect £14.99
13 Jun
When you discover that the world is under the greatest threat that it’s ever known, it’s your job to convince everyone that the threat is real. To do this you have to travel across the universe - which inevitably means that you’ll be encountering some nasty bastards along the way.
There’s a very good storyline in Mass Effect, which keeps the plot ticking along nicely. Strange that should be seen as a good point, but sadly most games are thrown together with little thought for a story that makes sense.

There’s your three new colour Nintendo DS Lites - green, red and turquoise. I have to say that I like the look of the red one, tis very snazzy indeed.
The DS Lite is a step up from the older chunky DS, in that this time you can actually fit it in your pocket. You also have a brighter display screen and a much easier button configuration, which make for less stress on your poor fingers!
Instore at Asda you can pick up either of these for £95.
E.A. Replay £4.99
11 Jun
Ever wanted to play such classic games as Road Rash, Desert Strike, Syndicate and Mutant League Football again but didn’t know how? Well, I’d suggest getting E.A. Replay then as it contains all of them.
For your money you’re getting 14 different games from the Electronic Arts vault, and every single one of them is an absolute belter - in fact, it’s even better than Namco Museum Remix.
If you fancy this PSP title, click here to get it for only £4.99 from Choices UK.
WarTech: Senko No Ronde thrusts you into the future where us humans have colonised new galaxies and Earth has become a planet mined for its natural resources. I imagine it’s probably set in the year 2056 or something - and I can also bet that it won’t come true (heck, we should all have flying cars and robot butlers by now!).
This mixes elements of beat-em-ups and shoot-em-ups to make some sort of new gaming genre, which I’ll call shat-em-up. Additionally, you can battle somebody else anywhere in the world via XBox Live. Lucky you.

Bioshock £11.93
11 Jun
Bioshock is a living, unique and unpredictable gaming experience like no other on the XBox 360. The fact that it’s set underwater may seem a little bit strange, but once you’ve started playing it all makes more sense - thank goodness.
It just so happens to be one of the best titles available for the console as well, probably because of its uniqueness. Either that or the expensive advertising campaign that was launched before th game came out!
Asda are selling this title for £11.93 - click here for more details.
Incidentally, you may be able to get Bioshock for £10 instore at Currys, but it may be limited to certain stores (i.e. stock is low).
Most people like to get a game or two when they buy a console, but with the Wii you don’t have that problem as Wii Sports is included with each one sold - actually, I wonder if they’ll ever stop doing that?
Anyway, Zavvi have a nice little deal running instore at the moment. For £190 you get the system itself (which comes with the aforementioned Wii Sports, a Wii Remote and a Wii Nunchuk), a copy of Mario & Sonic At The Olympics and a Wii accessory pack.
Great deal, as you’re essentially paying £10 for the Wii accessory pack and Mario & Sonic At The Olympics.
Asda Mini Sale
11 Jun
There’s a mini Asda sale, of sorts, on at the moment.
I’ve gone to the trouble of highlighting the best offers, so rest easy while I display them before your very eyes.
PS2
FIFA Street 2 £5.93
PS3
Wii
Bleach: Shattered Blade £14.93
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon £12.93
Race Driver: Grid £29.99
11 Jun
One of the best driving games of the year so far has to be Race Driver: Grid. With some truly fantastic graphics and very realistic handling, this is definitely up there with the Project Gotham Racing and Gran Turismo series’.
Take your cars out onto the streets and race around beautiful tracks in Europe, America and Japan - you can also race someone else anywhere in the world via XBox Live, which is nice.
