Metroid Prime Pinball - DS

It's pinball, what do you expect?

This is a very nice little pinball game, it uses the metroid styling to good effect, with nice graphics and level design, it also incudes a lot od the music from the original metroid prime. There are a nice amount of extra modes available, and the designers tried to keep the game fresh with nice touches. In the end though this is really your run of the mill pinball game, so if you like pinbal and want a game for it then this is in my opinion one of the best options available at the moment.

Mario Kart DS - DS

Greatest mario kart?

Mario Kart is a racing game for the nintendo ds, it is the latest in a long list of games in the series, The first thing i noticed when i started playing this game is the presentation which is immaculate and the graphics which are very impressive for the handheld, i the classic multiplayer fun of the series is here in spades as well as a higher than usual track count, lovers of this series will also be happy to know that many classic tracks from the older games in the series have returned (4 tracks from each previous game are available) track design is extremely good for the most part and many of the tracks are better made than any previously in the series, internet play is available and also vary fun, there is very little slow down, my only issue is that it can take quite a long time to find players ocasionally. custom Avatars are a very welcome addition to the game that i thought worth mentioning also. Anyone that like mario kart needs to buy this game.

Meteos - DS

Puzzle Classic

Meteos is a puzzle game for the nintendo ds, gameplay consists of moving blocks up or down in a grid to match up 3 in a row, when you do this it causes the 3 to ignite and push the blocks above them off of the screen, while this is happening, more blocks are constantly falling, and you must make sure they do not reach the top of the screen, the game plays in some ways similar to tetris and it's many clones, but is a fantatic and original game in it's own right. The game is extremely difficult and has many different modes, there is also a lot of collecting involved which increases the titles lifespan incredibly. Fans of puzzle games must check this out.

F-Zero GX - GameCube

Hardcore Gamers Rejoice

F-zero gx is a futuristic racer for the nintendo gamecube it is the first to be designed by a sega team. This game is incredible! never before have i played a racer with such speed and ultra-sensitive controls. I doubt Anyone who is a fan of the series would be dissapointed with this game, course design is never anything short of imaculate, there are hoards of gameplay options including 4-player, story mode and normal grand prix mode. One thing that has also been added to this iteration is extensive customisation options which really help to bring depth to the game. One thing i must strees though is this game is really hard, and probably for hardcore gamers only.

TimeSplitters 2 - GameCube

fantastic fps

Timesplitters 2 is a first person shooter, made by free radical, which is a company started by x Rare employees, many of which worked on Goldeneye on the n64. The games pedigree becomes apparent very fast while looking though the opening options screen, timesplitters 2 has masses of options ranging from normal campaign with different difficulties, 2 player co-op, mission mode, and hoards of different multiplayer scenarios. The one player mode in this game is excellent, each level is varied and never gets to the stage where it feels old, the action moves along very fast, and when you put it on different difficulty levels the game actually changes giving new objectives and forcing the player to change their tactics. The only real issue with the campaign mode is the lack of any real coherent story to tie everything together, which to be honest didn't bother to much. As a multiplayer game this is an awesome classic, with so many options available, including a map editor, it will take a long time to get bored with this game. This is actually i beleive my own personall favourite fps on any system it is that good.
