In a move that seems synonymous with video games based on Disney films (see the different versions of Wall-E, which are available from £14.93 as part of the Asda September sale), there are some differences in the DS and PlayStation 2 releases of Disney’s Meet The Robinsons.

Both are prequels to the movie but the DS version is a first-person shooter shooter with a simple storyline, whilst the PS2 release is a more in-depth game with a bigger story and additional mini-games.

Spider-Man: Web Of Shadows is due for release on the 24th of October, and sees our favourite Marvel superhero return for another free-roaming game. Yay for him.

Venom has returned to New York to infect the city with an army of symbiotes, so S.H.I.E.L.D. have quarantined it to prevent the infection from spreading. Spider-Man has to work with heroes and villains (much like in Spider-Man: Friend Or Foe) to track down Venom and stop him.

Pokemon always seemed a bit tame, so it’s nice to see that Monster Lab takes the catching part and uses it for finding ingredients to make the perfect monster instead of a funny little ball of fluff.

You take on the role of an apprentice scientist who performs a series of experiments to create a monster. Once finished, use the monster to explore the land – finding ingredients for more monster parts, defeating other monsters in combat, going on quests, or competing in mini-games as you go.

Although the TV series is OK, even if it is getting a little tiresome, Lost: The Video Game is a big steaming pile of turd. If the shortness of it doesn’t annoy you, then the loading screens surely will – there’s hundreds of them!

The graphics are good though, and fans will get the most out of it, as you’d expect. I feel that I have to mention the frankly laughable voice talent as well, because Locke is played in a very odd way and Sawyer sounds like Huckleberry Finn.

After initially being banned for too much violence, Manhunt 2 is coming out on the 31st of October. The main criticisms levelled at both this and the first one are the seemingly realistic ways in which victims are murdered – apparently this might influence people to try it themselves.

Although Manhunt was acclaimed for pushing the envelope and being a great gaming experience, this sequel is not quite as good. The story is weaker and it’s a bit forgettable, but it is as grim and brutal as its predecessor.

After promises that Infinite Undiscovery would contain 10 years worth of ideas that would ensure "RPGs will undergo a true evolution", the reality is that it could have been so much better. It’s enjoyable and intriguing, but the combat isn’t really satisfying and the voice talent haven’t been used well.

The XBox 360 brings to life a world that changes in real-time and the story will give you around 30 hours worth of gameplay, but as I said before you just get the feeling that there’s something missing.

Gamestation have this title available for £19.99 – for more information, click here.
