 | NHL 07 by WellsNorthShore: Growing up a Kiwi sporting lad most would expect I was very much into my Cricket and Rugby and I was how could I not enjoy running around stomping on people with steel screwed into my shoes every Saturday. But one day while sitting on what must have been a very ordinary PC I embarked on a game called Face Off by Canadian developers MindSpan. I had seen the Mighty Ducks movies and thought it looked all in good fun but the moment I realized I could control people on steel blades fighting... |
 | Rockstar Presents Table Tennis by Brianemone: Some games grow on you over time, others slap you in the face and then leave you wanting, Table Tennis slaps you but has the goods to follow up, I have had a few people around to my house that have had a quick play and all of them really enjoyed having a quick smash of the ball.

Stubbs the Zombie is “born” in Punchbowl and by the end of it has seen to its destruction. |
 | FIFA 06 by Teljam: This year represents the most content in terms of modes and extras that I have ever witnessed in a FIFA game. I've played this series since the original version in 1995 and looking at this year's version really shows how far the series has come. Speaking of the older versions - You can view a special video which shows the history of the series since its inception - For me this was a wonderful inclusion and brought back a lot of fond memories. In addition the various game play modes gives the player a number of options to play the game, from a quick one-off game, excellent multiplayer, through to a full blown career mode. Let's now have a closer look at some key elements in FIFA 06...
