Castleween, Sony Playstation

One month on from the haunting of Hallowe'en and it seems that Wanadoo is determined not to let us forget by releasing this creepy adventure, inspired by the famous annual tradition. Castleween plunges players into an eerie and terrifying world of haunted houses, creepy cemeteries, dusty laboratories and forgotten cellars. A combination of classic horror and modern fairy tale, the story begins on Hallowe'en night with a group of children searching for sweets in a deserted, run-down house. All of a sudden, most of the kids are turned into statues, leaving protagonists Alicia and Greg fleeing in horror. As they find themselves at the entrance to the World of the Dead, with nowhere else to run, they realise that they must enter and search for their friends' souls in order to save them. And so players assume control of either of the two children to begin with and enter into the 3D-platform world, littered with puzzles. Along the way, a variety of ghoulish foes, such as skeletons, vampires, witches and devils, stand in the way and must be avoided or fought. The two characters each have their own unique strengths and abilities, which must be relied upon in order to survive. For example, Greg can fight with his devil fork, whilst Alicia has the power to freeze her enemies, as well as water and lava. Both characters are vital at certain points in the game and can be switched after a time. Castleween combines all the memorable aspects of Hallowe'en and wraps them up in a fantastical 3D world, delivering an involving adventure for all ages that is tinged with horror.

Colin McRae Rally 04
There's certainly no stopping Codies in their quest to perfect the art of rally simulation. It seems like only yesterday that CMR3 was causing a stir, bringing the popular racing series to the current crop of gaming machines. In actual fact it was over a year ago, and the game wasn't without its flaws, so perhaps we are just about due for revision. As usual, Colin 04 pits you as jolly Scot Mr McRa...
Crash Bandicoot
Once thought of as Sony's unofficial mascot for the PlayStation, Crash Bandicoot is some kind of marsupial many of you will never have even heard of. Well he's here, a new character in an all-new adventure. As bandicoots aren't very clever, developer Naughty Dog decided that this bandicoot was going to be no exception. He can run and jump... that's it. The simplicity of the character capabilities ...
Turok Evolution
The 1997 N64 shoot-em-up, Turok: Dinosaur Hunter was an incredible game and sold well, despite the attached 70 price tag. The series has undergone a series of changes since then, and after another three editions spread across multiple platforms, the scantily-clad hero is making his first appearance for that little console you might just have heard of - PlayStation 2. During a conflict with his for...

NBA Live 06
It's about this time of year that EA like to release all the sporting titles they've been crafting during the off season. Both types of football - Madden and FIFA - have already hit the streets, as has their NHL game which looks as reinvigorated as the hockey league itself does after missing last season.
