Banjo-Kazooie brings the fun

 

Don’t look now, but here comes the next round of Christmas blockbusters!

Everyone in my family will be enjoying Xbox this festive season. Fun-filled Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts overflows with great humour and inventiveness. You might take turns at the controller for trickier flying or racing challenges, but all observers can also enjoy advising on how to build the best gadgets. Nuts & Bolts will keep you thinking long after playing, waking up in the middle of the night shouting Eureka!

Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

Likewise Scene It? Box Office Smash is a friends-and-relatives magnet to the living-room sofa, so book your seat early. My Big Button Pads have been polished in preparation for more hotly contested rounds of cinema trivia. Not sure if my historical knowledge will trump some of my keen-eyed older relatives, but with more than 250 movies to draw from I’ll give it my best shot.

I’d use a slick link to the next game here, but frankly that’s not going to be possible. Why? Because it’s Call of Duty World at War! If you’re looking for a harsh lesson in history, the new COD depicts World War II confrontations with stark realism. Turn to C&C Red Alert if you prefer your warmongering to be pure escapism. Which is almost my cue to clear out of here. But if you’re looking to make a real escape, there’s an unbelievable competition going on around Shaun White Snowboarding.

You can win seven nights for two people staying in Morzine-Avoriaz courtesy of Ubisoft and rudechalets. There you’ll have unlimited access to the rudechalets Burton Snowboard Test Centre during the day, and a flat screen TV plus Xbox 360 and free WiFi back at the chalet. Check out the official website from tomorrow, 14 November. I’ll see you next week, have a great one!
