There’s a fair few first-person shooters around, many of which are extremely average. Dark Sector is another one of these average games - even though it does have a somewhat interesting story.

Hayden Tenno has been sent on an assassination trip (sounds like fun), but is attacked by some unseen enemy. He awakens to find that he has inhuman powers - now he must evolve with these abilities and become a hero.

If you’re looking for a game that has a compelling storyline and a decent amount of gameplay time, then look no further than Mass Effect. This XBox 360 exclusive is also one of the best games available on the console.

You uncover the greatest threat the civilisation has ever known - but sadly nobody believes you. Travelling across an expansive universe to piece the mystery together, you discover that the universe is about to come to a violent end and you may be the only ones to stop it!

Comet are selling this title for £9.99 - for more information on this cheap games‘ availability, click here (and to save on postage, us the "Collect from store" delivery option).

Pro Evolution Soccer 6 was the first of the series to appear on a next-generation console. With improved graphics and a good choice of teams to choose from, it’s still pretty darn good.

The great element added to this release was the online multiplayer mode. Although there’s a small amount of lag (jerkiness in the screen for those of a non-technical persuasion), it’s not enough to take anything away from the enjoyment factor.

I think that people have been a little bit harsh about The Club - it’s not the most brain-taxing game in the world, but it’s very simple to pick up and play. What can be easier than shooting anyone that moves?

As it’s by the creators of the Project Gotham Racing series, you can expect a polished look. This, combined with an excellent online multiplayer deathmatch mode, makes for a game that I personally enjoy. I’m sure you will too.

To get the PS3 version click here, and for the XBox 360 release click here - both of which are £9.99 each at Comet (choose the "Collect from store" option to save on postage).

Test Drive: Unlimited has something for everyone, in that it features both cars and bikes. With over 125 licensed vehicles on board, I’m sure you’ll find your favourite in amongst them.

It’s quite in-depth as well, with over 1000 miles of total driving space and in this respect rivals even Grand Theft Auto IV for sheer size. There’s also a great online multiplayer mode as well.

If you’re looking for an introduction into the world of XBox 360 gaming, but don’t fancy laying down a fair wedge for the privilege, then the XBox 360 Arcade Pack could be ideal.

This contains the console, a 256MB memory unit, XBox Live silver membership and five arcade games (Boom Boom Rocket, Feeding Frenzy, Luxor 2, Pac-Man: Championship Edition and UNO). Sadly there’s no hard drive, although you can probably pick one up quite cheaply second hand.

Instore at John Lewis you can currently get this bundle for £99, which is very reasonable.

The FIFA games have improved greatly in more recent times (take FIFA 08, for example), so why EA insist on bringing out FIFA Street games, I’ll never know. "It doesn’t work, move on" would be my advice to them.

For a start, none of the players even slightly resemble their real-life counterparts - Peter Crouch looks like a bloody giraffe, for crying out loud! Add this together with some dodgy gameplay and you have one stinker of a footy title.

Play.com have both the PlayStation 3 (click here) and XBox 360 (click here) versions available for £17.99 each. Not a couple of cheap games that I can recommend, unless you want a laugh at how bad it is.

Stunts are great - if I could be anything other than the sexy beast that I am, I would be a stuntman. I probably wouldn’t be very good mind you, but it’s a dream. A dream that can be lived out, in a virtual sense, with Stuntman: Ignition.

This game does pretty much what it says on the tin. You perform a variety of mad stunts in order to become the world’s best. After you’ve done that, take the challenge online and beat your friends as well.

Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is one of the best titles available on any console. Full stop. It is literally one of the greatest games you’ll ever play - which might sound like hyperbole, but it’s true!

With an excellent single player campaign and an even better online multiplayer mode, it’s quite simply the complete game. Buy it now!

Burnout: Paradise is one of the best racing games available on either the PlayStation 3 or XBox 360. I think that the ability to absolutely destroy your own car and others around you is one of the things that make it so good.

Even with the appearance of Race Driver: Grid (which is still priced at £29.99, by the way), the online mode alone is worth buying this for. The chance to smash up your friends around the world is something I myself cherish dearly. I am a bit weird though.

To get the PS3 version click here, or for the XBox 360 release click here - both of which are £19.98 delivered each from DVD.co.uk.
