The Need For Speed series is notorious for being incredibly average. Need For Speed: Prostreet is much better than most of the other titles in the series, but it’s still far from being the perfect racing game.

Compete around the world to prove that you have what it takes to be the king of the road, but sadly there’s no ability to compete online. Boo!

Fancy life as an android? Well, Harvest Moon: Innocent Life sees you playing as one called "Innocent Life" (surely Albert would have been better) who learns and discovers life through a long journey.

As with every other Harvest Moon title you must meet people and interact, as well as tend to your crops and keep a farm running. Become a vrtual farmer indeed!

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.

Stranded on a desert island, you must help your Sims overcome the forces of nature so that they can survive and thrive whilst discovering how to get back to civilisation.

It seems to me that somebody at E.A. has been watching Lost (but thankfully not been playing Lost: The Video Game) and thought that it might work for a Sims title – and they’re right, it does!

I always feel a bit better inside when I see a new Madden game every year – it’s almost like a reminder of bygone years, or some kind of nonsense like that. Yes, I’m a little mad.

Anyway, Madden NFL 08 is the latest in the series and has a bunch of new features such as a read-and-react system, skill drills and a Fantasy Challenge mode (where you draft your dream team and advance through different levels of difficulty).

There’s many console versions available for decent prices. The PS2 release is £12.99 (click here), the PSP version is £13.99 (click here), the XBox 360 release is £14.99 (click here) and the Wii version is £18.99 (click here) – all from SoftUK.

Peter Jackson’s King Kong was an alright film, even if the original was better (as is usually the case). The game is a very faithful interpretation of the movie and lets you go a bit deeper into certain parts of the story.

Even if it is a little bit on the easy side (think Lost: The Video Game easy), it just makes it more accessable to gamers of all ages. The voicework is good as well, if that’s something that interests you.

If mad jumps and crazy stunts are your kind of thing, may I suggest a purchase of L.A. Rush. This arcade-style racer has 36 licensed vehicles and over 30 different tracks to race on.

This PSP version includes the exclusive Stunt Arena where you can perform loads of craziness while collecting golden tokens to unlock extra content.

Asda have this game available for £8.93 – for more information, click here.

Bomberman Land sees you trying to battle your way to the top to try and save Bomberman Land. I’m presuming this is where all the Bombermen live, but then again it could just be some sort of theme park (actually, looking at the blurb I’m pretty sure that’s EXACTLY what it is).

You’ll be glad to know this comes packed with tons of mini-games, which everybody loves. Actually they don’t, but companies keep sticking them in anyway.

Click here to buy the PSP version of this game for £10.99, or click here for the Wii release (which is £14.99) – both are in stock at HMV.

DS owners might like to know that Bomberman Land Touch! (which is part of the ongoing Gamestation sale) and Bomberman Land Touch! 2 are still available for decent prices.

Over the years, wrestling video games have gone the same way as football games and become better and better. Although there’s no huge improvement over the last one, there’s enough in WWE Smackdown Vs Raw 2008 to sustain interest.

Not only do get the usual updated roster (which is slightly outdated now), but ECW superstars and arenas are included as well as enhanced online community support.
