The graphics is not mind-blowing and the damage model has no middle ground, but between the pleasurable addiction of the long career mode, and the undeniable pull of bottomless online play, Forza Motorsport 2 isn't just money well-spent, it's the best Xbox 360 racer you can buy.

The best ninja game on the block just got a whole lot better.

Colin McRae DIRT is much more than the customary quickie paint job that other racing games churn out. Instead, it reinvents the wheel for off-road racing, offering the best, most complex and thoroughly enjoyable game we've played in ages.

If you're a social gamer, you owe it to yourself to buy this. Still the best party game on the block.

Offers a whole lot more than the average GTA rip-off. Highly recommended.

Super Paper Mario brings the same sense of wonderment and fun it did to the Nintendo DS, giving Wii owners one of the best games for the system in the process. Highly recommended.

No doubt about it Tiger Woods 08 offers up an excellent round of 360 golf. The game-play upgrades are right on and GamesNet promises unlimited potential for online action. If you're any kind of video game golf fan, tee this sucker up!

Visually, the game already looks phenomenal, and is far, far more detailed than the already stunning Oblivion. Bethesda is promising virtually identical graphics and performance between the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC versions as well as simultaneous launch dates. Late 2008 is a long way off...but we have a hunch that Fallout 3 is one game worth waiting for.

It's no surprise that NHL 08 is this years best hockey game offering. Adding vastly improved gameplay to last years impressive control scheme ensures EA's hold on the title of Best Hockey Game Yet Devised. 2K Sports is relegated to a distant second-place, plagued by overly complicated controls, a badly designed interface, and sub par gameplay. Another year will have to pass before we can see if 2K can turn the tide once again in their favour.

Big Brain Academy Wii Degree really plays to the Wii manifesto as far as being something that everyone can play and enjoy -- definitely a game to share with little cousins, as well as your parents.

Despite a few mistakes, Jericho still shines brightly. Its slick style, amazing graphics, and dark atmosphere really make it stand out. Here's hoping that MercurySteam has another romp into the dark depths of Clive Barker's mind lined up soon.

If you're a fan of the franchise or just really love throwing men and pinning them to the ground then this game is for you. But it's not a title for the casual gamer.
