Buy new: £67.95 / Used from: £27.49 Fumito Ueda's emotional masterpiece is a joy to play, and an absolutely essential experience.
|
 | Halo Triple Pack (Xbox)
Buy used from: £45.00 A decent price considering its content. Bungie's beautifully refined and unusually accessible FPS series is an essential purchase for Xbox.
|
 | Project Zero 2: Crimson Butterfly (PS2)
Buy new: £40.00 / Used from: £14.99 A slightly extended version also available on Xbox, this is an exceptionally atmospheric and beautifully presented survival horror. Its cinematography is without peer, and it's suprisingly playable.
|
 | Resident Evil 4 (GameCube)
Buy used from: £8.99 Recently brought to PS2, Capcom's reinvention of its own genre is unique, and crucially great fun.
|
 | Metroid Prime (Player's Choice GameCube)
Buy used from: £3.85 Retro Studios' controversial transferral of Metroid's distinct formula to a 3D firstperson viewpoint was immensely successful. Pure Metroid from start to finish.
|
 | Shadow of the Colossus (PS2)
Buy new: £77.95 / Used from: £32.50 I impatiently imported this technical marvel from Canada. Aside from some inevitable camera issues, this is exactly the game it wanted to be. Completely unique.

 | Wario Ware: Touched! (Nintendo DS)
Buy used from: £13.50 What better game to showcase the unique features of the DS than one which can give you a new game mechanic every 3 seconds?
|
 | Panzer Dragoon Orta
Buy new: £24.82 / Used from: £4.28 Very little has changed between this and the Saturn original (included in its entirety as an unlockable extra), but that doesn't stop it being a far cry from most Xbox titles.
|
 | Grabbed by the Ghoulies (Xbox)
Buy used from: £0.01 Unfortunately overlooked by most Xbox owners. Elegantly simple control interface, buckets of in-jokes, and absolutely, undeniably Rare.
|
 | Another Code: Two Memories (Nintendo DS)
Buy used from: £19.99 Myst for beginners essentially, but the imaginative use of the tactile DS controls elevate it far beyond a genre clone.
