Well to start, Top Spin is probably one of my most favourate sport games of all time now. You can really feel the energy in the game as opposed to other tennis games, mainly due to the great camera angles but also the easyness of the controlls and such making different shot types easy.

Defiance is also much more than I expected, I bought it thinking of it to be another Soul Reaver but it wasn't (Shame/Yeys) and I like how they've concetrated more on the action with puzzles included, some of which are mind boggling. Oh and Kain absolutely utterly pwns Raziel, never playing a Blood Omen games i'm going to look for BO2 for cheap seeing as walking around and throwing people about with my mind feels excellent.

And Turok, I thought the first level was actually quite good but now i'm riding some poxy flying bird and I have decided that the game will gather dust.

So yeah, I think it was a worthwhile swap from Juiced (great but short and repetitive) Spider-Man 2 (played to death) and Hitman Contracts (Annoyed as no matter how hard I try I get the urge to rip someone open with a kitchen knife and watch them fall off a roof or something, therefore losing all stealth).

Topspin -Easily Beaten By Virtua Tennis 2, LOK- its good but i found the camera a nightmare to control and turok - well the less said about it the better, so a good trade methinks, though you can pick up all of the games exept for juiced for a 5'er now anyway

as for pro evo - ITS AMAZING, i just ordered the psp version today im getting bored of worlt tour soccer but hey all i can say is pro evo kicks fifas balls even for non footy fans

I personally don't like Pro Evo, but everyone seems to love it, so I can see why :p

But don't you get bored of them year after year. I would!

Yeha but you're talking about Fifa. Pro Evo is godly. Pro Evo forever.

I hate football games.

Yeah, let's go buy another pointless yearly update! For £40? That's great! Yay! \o/

I mean there is only a certain amount you can do to make it a worthy purchase. They are going to die. Ha.

Trouble is the levels are quite hard and if you make one mistake then you die and you have to start again unlike Halo which has LOADS of auto-save points.

The flying sections are utter ass and the later levels are really dull. it starts off quite well, but the game goes on longer than you want it too and I eventually got bored and never played it again.

People always compared the game to Halo and Timesplitters - it was a completely style of game, and when not compared to anything, its actually quite good. I mean, the bit where the T-rex chases you down to the river is sheer class! And in return to what Hedfix has said, yeah I played the game stealthily, too. If you just peg it through the levels, you are likely going to die anyway, and everything will just seem rushed.

It's £1 now in stores, so go and buy it if you fancy some easy going fun.
