Dragon Quest: The Chapters Of The Chosen was originally a NES game that wasn’t released in Europe. It’s also the fourth in the Dragon Quest series – if you want the first three, send a letter to your MP. Mine is Gordon Brown, so I won’t!

This DS version contains an entirely new translation of the script, as well as several enhancements. The Prologue and Bonus chapters found in the PlayStation release (this has been remade more times than Michael Jackson’s face, by the sounds of it) are also included.

As Space Chimps is a game based on a film, you can pretty much presume it’s average. However it’s a kids film, so they may very well enjoy this.

Ham III, who is the grandson of the first chimpanzee in space, teams up with Luna and Titan on a space adventure, where they must journey to an unknown extraterrestrial planet.

Play.com are selling the Wii (click here) and XBox 360 (click here) versions of this game for £17.99 each.

When the very first Lego Star Wars game was released, a new phenomenon was born. Since then we’ve had a couple more Lego Star Wars titles, Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures, and the next one due out is Lego Batman: The Video Game.

Players will be able to fight on land, sea, and in the air uaing any number of recognisable vehicles – from the Batmobile through to the Batwing. All the characters from the actual Lego Batman series are included as well as some new ones such as Clayface, Man-Bat, Mad Hatter, and Batgirl.

Click here to preorder the XBox 360 version or click here for the PlayStation 3 release, both of which are £29.99 each at Amazon.

The Bourne Conspiracy expands upon Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne character, and immerses you in a cat-and-mouse espionage action adventure. It’s much closer to the story in the first film, rather than the books.

Played from a third-person perspective, you move from fight to fight in order to experience sequences that aim to blend Bourne’s signature hand-to-hand combat with intense shooting and the ability to escape and evade deadly situations.

Games based on TV series’ or films are notoriously average, and this is no different with Pet Alien. To be honest, it didn’t have much chance to begin with – I don’t think it’s particularly popular in the UK.

You control five aliens who each have special abilities, and the purpose is to use these to obtain gems that lie scattered around various levels. Sounds like kids may enjoy it.

Pipemania was originally a puzzle game that appeared on the Amiga in 1989. Nearly 20 years later it’s making a comeback, and it’s better than ever – well, as better as you can make a game about connecting pipes.

Lay down some pipe (steady!) on a tiled grid to stop the Flooze, a constantly flowing substance that speeds up over time, moving through the pipes without overflowing. Five different modes will provide many hours of enjoyment, and you don’t even need to be a plumber to like it.

Asda have this DS game up for preorder at £14.73 – click here for more details on this cheap games‘ availability.

Hot Wheels: Beat That! is based on the toys that you may have played with as a child. I didn’t, but then my parents didn’t believe in toys – this may be a lie.

The game features 30 authentic vehicles, competitive weaponry, power-ups, and a two-player mode. Graphics are a bit basic, although this is aimed at kids and most kids are thick (at least that’s what game developers would have you believe).

For some time now, any games based on The Simpsons have either been very good (The Simpsons: The Arcade Game) or absolutely awful (The Simpsons Wrestling). The Simpsons Game falls somewhere in between the two, as it’s too short and has a crap camera – although it does look excellent, and the writing is very similar to that of the show itself.

Most versions are third-person actioners, where the family discover that they are forced to take part in another Simpsons game and poke fun at other video games. However, the DS release has some differences – it’s a sidescrolling platformer, there are less cutscenes, and some of the character’s powers have been removed.

The Game Collection have the DS version for £9.95 (click here), or ShopTo are selling the PSP release for £9.99 (click here).
