Those of you having trouble for Christmas presents look here:

1. Mario Sunshine
Okay enough said. Buy this now! Only downside is that it may prove too easy for some gamers. But no. 1 in the Christmas guide.

2. Timesplitters 2
Outstanding multiplayer. Beats Die Hard, Both Bonds and Turok Evolution. Words cannot describe the multiplayer. Single player a little short.

3. Eternal Darkness
I thought this would be a dull version of Resident Evil but it's better in my opinion. Insanity meter is amazing and the whole story line is great. But again too short.

4. Starfox Adventures
Although there have been terrible reviews of this game I think it's great. The fighting may be rubbish but the rest of the game is world class.

5. Super Smash Bros Melee
For those of you who don't have this get it. Now! Lasts ages and is great fun. But one player a little repetitive.

Hope it helps

Better than Sunshine. You're obviously insane!

Not good at all control-wise. if you're looking for the next Goldeneye, forget it 'cos this aint it.

I'd take Star Fox Adventures out of the list as well. It's too easy and too crap. It's like decent wrapping paper - it looks nice but you're never going to have fun with it.

I'd take Starfox and stamp on it repeatedly until it dies, after this crap game I reckon they should definetly keep fox hunting. Hell I might even be tempted to do some myself....

Die Hard's much better than Starfox, the controls are a bit cack but once you get used to them they're fine.

*please note I am not really for Fox hunting, I think it's a sick sport and should be banned....unless Starfox and his leper friends are involved*

But then we wouldn't have Starfox Armada...best to just jam their cockpit doors shut so they can't get out and have an 'adventure'
