Genre: Sport | Our score: 5.0

14th February Ghost Squad

It's a fine example of the genre, fits the chosen hardware fantastically well, and even if only as a stop-gap until the House of the Dead series re-release, it may well be worth picking up.

Genre: Shooter | Our score: 7.5

12th February Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure

Zack & Wiki is a bit like Marmite (European yeast spread) you either love it or hate it. But putting opinion aside, what does this game have to offer?
