Reviews

The reviews are in this week and as you'd expect, given that we are right in the middle of the finest release schedule in gaming history, all three games are good 'uns. I've already talked about Ratchet & Clank but if you have a PS3 then this really is a must-have. Wii owners looking for something meatier than Wii Sports and Big Brain Academy will have probably already bought Metroid Prime 3. I'm looking forward to getting properly stuck into Metroid but with Call of Duty 4, Puzzle Quest, PES 2008 and the beginnings of a relationship with Eternal Sonata taking up my gaming time I can this being left until the post-Christmas slump. And that's before you consider Mass Effect, Super Mario Galaxy and Assassin's Creed, all of which arrive in the next fortnight. This really feels like a gaming golden age.

I am going to free up some time to check out the subject of the final review though - Hellgate London. Reviews have been mixed but a first person RPG reminiscent of Diablo 2 and set in the London Underground has surely got be worth a look.
