LEGO Batman: The Videogame
Released: October 2008
Following the success of LEGO Star Wars and LEGO Indiana Jones, the Caped Crusader received the construction block treatment in 2008. A horde of familiar super villains has escaped from Arkham Asylum, leaving Batman and Robin to clean up Gotham City. This game is excellent in co-operative mode, where two friends can control any combination of hero and villain.
Guitar Hero World Tour
Released: November 2008
The Guitar Hero phenomenon got bigger in 2008, as the new instruments included with Guitar Hero World Tour allowed aspiring drummers, bass players and singers to get in on the action. The result is one of the best social games available; it's a wonderful feeling to have a group of friends all in synch and rocking out to one of the many tracks included on the DVD.

Anyone with a voice can play SingStar and everyone will want to with this game, thanks to the universal appeal of Disney movies and their iconic music.
