In a nutshell: Spyro the Dragon returns in a reboot to the series that finally explains his origins and aims to return him to the top flight of platforming gaming mascots. The lowdown: Alongside Crash Bandicoot the original Spyro the Dragon games were the PSoneâs best two exclusive platformers, but just like Crash theyâve long lost their way. This might be called A New Beginning but itâs disarmingly similar to the last game and features precious little in the way of new ideas. Although he does sport a requisite pair of leathery wings, Spyro canât actually fly, just glide for short periods, which allows the game to include lots of platforming sections. The real emphasis is on combat though, which is a bit of a shame as it quickly gets repetitive with few moves and little variety in enemies. Itâs a competent enough game but itâs really got nothing new to add to either the Spyro series or action adventure games in general. Most exciting moment: The best part of the game is the way Spyroâs powers can slowly be upgraded, particularly his four flavoured dragonâs breath which switches between the elemental powers of fire, ice, wind and earth. Not only do many of the puzzles revolve around their use but some enemies are vulnerable to specific types. Since you ask: Oddly the game has quite the celebrity line-up in its voice cast, including Elijah Woods (The Lord of the Rings) and Gary Oldman (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban), but their talents are largely wasted on a bland script and trite dialogue. The bottom line: Not the revamp the series needed to regain its previous glories.-HARRISON DENT

... Read more
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is the brilliantly innovative spin off game from the beloved Spyro The Dragon video game series. This game comes complete with the Portal Of Power and the three starter pack figurines Gill Grunt Trigger Happy and Spyro the legend himself. These action figures transform into interaction figures when placed upon the Portal Of Power transporting them into the game world and naming you as Portal Master. An evil genius by the name of Hektore has invaded the wonderful and mystical world of the Skylanders and has frozen all of its guardians and banished them to Earth; the fate of their world now rests on your shoulders. Only you can unfreeze them using your Portal Of Power and send them back to defend their home with their magical abilities and weapons in order to save Skylands forever. There are over thirty characters in total each with their own particular strengths elements and attributes such as armour and speed. Each of these Skylanders can upgrade their moves and weapons and get stronger overall by completing challenges and specific side missions which can be played to train them up and to learn how their powers work. You can change characters at any given moment by merely swapping them on your Portal Of Power which comes in useful as sections of the levels you will play throughout the game are tailored to the elemental strength of a particular Skylander. This swap in swap out at any given moment feature means that you can employ different strategies and use different characters for each and every level meaning endless replayability. Every figure you use will automatically save everything they have gained whilst you played them including their current level experience points money stat-boosting hats and anything else you may have collected on your travels together. This 3DS version gives you a game that is more tailored to an action platform genre with levels only being completed by gathering certain gems called Radiance Crystals. Collect enough and you will able to unlock previously unvisitable levels therefore allowing you to further progress throughout the game. Crystals can either be found scattered around in the level you're currently playing or achieved by doing specific tasks such as finding certain items or defeating a certain number of enemies. When you find a Radiance Crystal the mysterious and evil character Hektore will magically appear and a time limit will be set in place where you have to defeat enemies within the time limit and use rockets against an enemy that chases you. The 3DS version also boasts an exclusive mode called Tag Team in which you can place two characters into the game and switch between them whenever you want. Alongside the main game levels Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure also boasts a multitude of side quests and secrets. These range from hidden treasures stat-boosting headgear areas full of loot that you can plunder at will and spend in the hub world on abilities to save to your character and so much more. There is also an abundance of enemy creatures to defeat puzzles to solve and soul gems to collect that unlock ultimate powers for your Skylanders amongst many other things all of which you will want to spend hours discovering. There is also a wonderfully inventive drop in drop out co-operative mode where a friend can place their Skylander alongside yours on the Portal Of Power and either team up with you to defend the world together or go head to head to play against you and prove the strength of their character. Player vs Player takes place in a Battle Arena where you pit two characters against each other in three different game types but who emerges victorious is up to how strong your Skylander is. With so much to explore and enjoy this game is perfectly suited to have fun with both friends and family or fly solo and save Skylands from the evil Hektore! (Cat Emerson)

... Read more
Of course the GBA isn't quite up to emulating the 3-D glory of the original Tomb Raider games, but it does make a quite admirable attempt to portray the same action and atmosphere in the palm of your hand. The Prophesy's typically non-complex story has the lovely Lara Croft looking for the Black Stone, which as usual translates as a weak excuse for defiling lots of ancient tombs in exotic places. Starting out in Sweden, the game features a forced-perspective viewpoint which is not quite overhead and not quite proper isometric 3-D. It works very well, though, in enabling the same sort of level design seen in the original games. The control of Lara is generally excellent and despite the radical change in graphic style it still feels like the Tomb Raider of yore. Even the combat is the same, right down to the penchant for including endangered species as enemies. Of course it goes without saying that if you don't like Tomb Raider you won't like this, since it does absolutely nothing different than the previous titles, but if you're a fan you'll love it. --David Jenkins
