You may have missed these with all the Halo 3 excitment going on:

Basically it's a cartoony rollercoaster tycoon. PLayed a little bit of it and I didn't actually think it was too bad. It's got a fair few options and whilst the camera and placement initially feels a bit fiddly, it's easy to get used to it.

Now, I don't like Hockey, but I'm sure I remember there being some Hockey fans here? What did you think of it?

I do wonder when they're gonna stop making Crash Bandicoot games... But it's apparently got Co op. Co op games are always good, right?

I have not downloaded this yet, but it sounds very, very familiar. I think it was attached to some other game as a playable demo? Anyone remember that? Might have been Viva Pinata...

Agree with you on Thrillville. Decent game which I must pick up cheap! (Keep an eye on the Bargain Basement ;))

Crash of the Titans, I'll also pick up cheap.

Downloaded Bee Movie Game yesterday and will try today.

Didn't have a clue about the Hockey one!

I remember the Bee demo now, it was on Shrek I believe. It's basically just the 'Simon Says' principle, move the thumbsticks according to the arrows, tap the buttons when prompted. I do hope the full game has a bit more to it, but I don't think I'll be buying it.

I just had a go on the Titans demo and I don't think it's for me. Too much been there done that.
