The sci-fi shooter has been done a number of times in a number of ways - and arguably there are an abundance of new possibilities within the sci-fi genre that will continue to spawn many more. Section 8 has a variety of new ideas implemented that make it stand out from the crowd, but is it worthy of the attention or is it just another generic space shooter?

The King of Fighters is a long standing series spawning many sequels and remakes, I recently played the ported versions of the games on the PSP and thoroughly enjoyed them, so I was interested to see how the series had progressed with the new instalment, The King of Fighters XII.

There are not many games out there that have the “WOW! Must buy” factor for me these days, I’m not one to rush out and spend £50 (or up to $60 if you’re in the US) and even though games have come a long way since Pong, it takes a lot to get me hyped up.

It's hard to put your finger on just what Star Trek: DAC was trying to achieve as a game, as it could quite simply be any generic space shooter. This one simply had the blessing of licenses to use the Star Trek ships, names and any other references to the Star Trek universe. It's not until you make the link between this and the recent

In essence, Shatter takes an existing gameplay design - one that has seen many a remake - and adds a fun little spin to it. A downloadable game off the PlayStation Store, Shatter provides little in the way of complex gameplay or epic storylines. What it does have, however, is an abundance of innovative fun.

The Nintendo Wii - one of the best selling consoles of all time, the most original console of all time and the console that surprises us with game releases month after month. Let's Tap - a game made by Sega, a game nobody has heard of and a game that offers yet another original way of playing games. Mix the two together and you have an awesome combination.

Resurrecting a much-loved series of games is a difficult and controversial task. The Monkey Island games are indisputably some of the best point-and-click titles ever created, blending humour and adventure together seamlessly. So, after a 9 year hiatus the news of a new episodic entry had me excited but apprehensive.

Very rarely do you come across a game that looks so bizarre, so strange and so fun that despite its eccentricity you expect you'll enjoy the game. Game trailers can do a lot to persuade you into purchasing a game, and Stalin vs. Martians will be no different. The only problem is when you come to play it, and realise just how much a waste of time, effort and money the whole experience is.

If you can ignore these technical problems then Point Lookout is a great experience. Immersing yourself in the new location is easy and there is plenty to explore and investigate with some satisfying new content thrown in. During my time in the swamps I brewed Moonshine, decapitated more insane hillbillies than I could count and even ended up finding a horribly mutated dancing bear. If that doesn't sound even remotely appealing, then it's probably one to avoid. For everyone else grab your lever-action rifle and get shooting some inbred psychopaths.

Until the next Guitar Hero instalment is released, Nothing Else Matters, so in the meantime I'll return to scaring my neighbours.

Virtua Tennis 2009 is a hard game to recommend. It has its good share of positives and negatives but in the end, if you want to buy a tennis game, you won't look any further than the Sega title. This is a game that you would probably play for a couple hours, a week tops, before it will get way too tedious. A great game for some, but a nightmare for others.

Velvet Assassin lets you take control of British spy Violette Summer, tasked to disrupt Axis operations and assassinate high ranking officers; utilising your wits, cunning and liberal use of the shadows to take down the German forces swiftly, silently. On paper, this sounds like a very intriguing title while in theory, however, it falls short of the mark.

The main goal of every fighting game is to beat your opponent, but never before has it been done in such style as in UFC Undisputed 2009. There are a multitude of different stances and positions you can beat your opponent from and it's this diversity that makes it more than a simple brawler where you just hit your opponent in the head until he falls over.

All in all, Red Faction: Guerrilla is a highly enjoyable experience and Volition should be very proud. Personally, this is what a game should be. Hours of free-roaming fun and destruction, a wide (and I mean wide) variety of collectables to keep even the most ardent of completist's happy. Unlockable cheats and interesting multi-player options provides for a brilliant game and as many hours of gameplay as you're willing to put in. This game is a breath of fresh air in an era of games that are too short, too serious, too easy and lack any real additional content.

We have seen various business simulation games appear on the gaming menu in recent years. Some are good and others are bad, while a select few are simply downright dreadful. As far as restaurant management games go, Restaurant Empire 2 is good. Compared to the best tycoon games on the market its nothing special, but that said I wouldn't write-off this game completely.

Broken Steel feels like an expansion which should have been in Fallout 3 all along. After completing it, it seems odd to think it wasn't there to start with, which is surely the mark of a good addition. If you are new to Fallout 3 then I would strongly suggest downloading this pack to add to the experience as you play through. If you have already finished the main quest then there is enough here to draw you back to The Capital Wasteland.
