Ikaruga
System: Xbox Live Arcade
Cost: 800 points (approx. £7)
By: Treasure/G.rev
This release is one of those games that forum-bound wishful thinkers have fawned over since the inception of the Live Arcade service. An uncontested classic that is wholly inappropriate for a full price DVD release, it’s a textbook example of why digital distribution is worth having.

Rainbow Six Vegas 2
System: Xbox 360
By: Ubisoft
Rainbow Six are back and doing their shooty, shooty thing in Sin City. The only
thing they won't shoot is Craps as they are strictly business (they also won't
shoot innocent bystanders and each other but that didn't sound as good).

Mr. Driller Online
System: XBOX 360
Cost: 800 points (approx. £7)
By: Namco Bandai
A game with pedigree, Mr. Driller Online is the latest incarnation of a series spanning countless platforms over the last decade, with its roots in the arcade classic Dig Dug.
Giving no indication that it ever intends to explain itself, the game demands that you drill your way downwards through vertical courses crammed full of coloured blocks and items. At the most basic level it's all about making it to the end of the course without perishing, either by running out of air or by being crushed by falling rocks, dislodged by your no-doubt cavalier approach to digging. This basic level offers plenty of excitement, with dramatic last minute dashes for oxygen tanks and harrowing escapes from falling rocks. At a higher level of play the game resembles a Tetris clone, forcing you to pick out patterns in the rocks and dig strategically to create colour-matching combos and rack up the high scores.

I have a sickness. This sickness makes me play really long winded games where you rule vast empires but in which very little happens. I blame it on Lego and the need to build things that it instils. If games like Civilisation and Total Annihilation bore you to tears then you may as well stop reading now. However if, like me, you can't get enough of them then continue.
