If you’ve never played any of the Guitar Hero games, I can’t stress highly enough that you should buy at least one of them (and a guitar to go with it) as soon as possible. Really great stuff.

Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock (with a wireless guitar) is the latest game to appear on the PlayStation 2, and it’s very probably the best one yet. Loads of decent songs to play along to on this one.

Game are selling this for £29.99, which is an excellent price – however we can get it even lower than this as there’s a £3 off when you spend £30 voucher floating about.

Click here to add the game to your basket and add this wrapping to go over the £30 threshold – this will bring the total price down to £27.98. The voucher code is ID734TJAW, by the way.

One final point is that any PlayStation 3, Wii or XBox 360 owners interested in this title should look at the earlier post about Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock (ignore the PS2 bit obviously).

Friends: The One With All The Trivia is a trivia game about the much-missed TV show Friends. I bet you would never have guessed that from looking at the cover.

A film may be in the works at some point, so to tide you over until it does eventually happen you can answer thousands of questions about it with this game.

Think of it like Buzz! Quiz TV, but without buzzers. And a funny bloke to guide you through the game.

The very first Guitar Hero title is incredibly difficult to get for a decent price, so I’d strongly advise you to get this while it’s still available – you won’t regret it for a second.

Sadly this doesn’t come with the guitar, but you could always get Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock from Amazon for £29.97 as it comes with a wireless one.

Even though you can now get a PlayStation 3, there’s still a huge variety of top-notch PS2 titles available. With Sony stupidly removing backwards compatibility from the PS3, you have to get a PlayStation 2 console to be able to play these great games (you can even play PS1 titles on it as well).

If you’re interested in getting one, you may want to check out your local Toys R Us store as they are running a couple of decent deals.

For £49.99 you can get a PlayStation 2 with either The Simpsons Game or Buzz! Junior: Monster Rumble (which includes four buzzers) – both of which are decent.

One of the greatest ideas for a game in recent years has to have been Guitar Hero – OK it’s nothing like playing a real guitar, but it makes you feel like you are. Sort of.

Guitar Hero III is the latest in the series, and the very first to appear on the PlayStation 3 and Wii. With some great tunes to play along to, it may very well be the best of the bunch as well.

Amazon have the various different console versions available for good prices – click here to get the PS2 release for £29.97, or click here for the Wii version (which is £39.97). The PS3 (click here) and XBox 360 (click here) releases are slightly more expensive, coming in at £44.97 each.

Some of the best fun you can have is smashing your car into another one. Not in real life, of course, but in the Burnout series – with slow-motion replays from every angle, they really do look fantastic.

Burnout: Dominator takes what’s been right with every title in the series up to this point (getting rid of the annoying Crash mode in later games) and takes it to the next level. Great fun.

Titles like those in the NBA Live series never really change that much over time. Generally, you’ll get an updated roster and maybe one or two new features. If it ain’t broken, why fix it – right?

Well NBA Live 08 is pretty much what you’d expect. A newly updated roster is present and correct – however, you also get brand-new national teams to control and all-new NBA challenges from the 2006-2007 season.

SoftUK have this PlayStation 2 title priced at just £7.99 – for more information, click here.
