Mirror's Edge

Set in a city where information is monitored heavily, you play as ‘Runner’ Faith, an underground transporter of sensitive material, meant to be kept away from prying eyes.

Life seemed to be going well until your sister was framed for a crime and now you are being hunted as well. The game plays from a first person perspective that enables the player to pick out their route to ensure a smooth run, whilst at the same time boasting pretty visuals.

“Nevertheless, Mirror's Edge excels when you hit that snappy stride, and once you've found the best route through a particularly tricky scenario, it's exhilarating to rush through it without a care to weigh you down”

The game is available on the PS3 and Xbox 360, both for £39.99.

                                                                                     Call of Duty: World at War

A game highly anticipated by all Call of Duty Fans, but where its predecessor shone a torch into near-future combat, Call of Duty V takes the game back into World War Two.

The game alternates between two characters: US marine, Private Miller and Russian Soldier, Private Dimitri Petrenko, both fighting enemies on opposite sides of the planet. The combat has been upped with a more realistic array of weaponry and “brutal” imagery to match.

“This game digs in, pulls out the big guns and gives a majority of players what they want - adrenaline-bursting action on an epic scale.”

The game is available on the DS, PC, PS2, PS3 and Xbox 360, with prices ranging from £29.99 to 37.99.

World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King

Wrath of the Lich King is the second expansion pack for the immensely popular PC game World of Warcraft. This latest MMORPG [massively multiplayer online role player game] instalment gives the player yet more terrain to explore in the Warcraft world, the icy northern land of Northrend.

If fans were left reeling by the slight science-fiction theme from the previous expansion, they will be pleased to know that Wrath of the Lich King reverts back to the games true fantasy roots.

“The appeal to those who haven’t already caught the WoW bug may be limited – but those already playing won’t want to miss out on Blizzard’s finest achievement yet.”

The game is available only on the PC for £19.99.

                             Wii Music

A game to play for the sheer fun of playing, Wii Music has no storyline, or any characters save the members of your band. In it, you improvise musical ‘jams’ to which your band members will play along to, no matter how you choose to alter the beat; you can slow it down, speed it up or skips notes.

With over 60 instruments to choose from and the option to send tunes to your friends online, the game is perfect for musically inclined game enthusiasts who prefer to play without a competitive element.

“Wii Music is another one of those offbeat Nintendo treats that redefine what you can do with a games console.”
