MediEvil II Sony PlayStation £34.99

Undead hero Sir Daniel Fortesque is back in this sequel to the good if not brilliant MediEvil

Undead hero Sir Daniel Fortesque is back in this sequel to the good if not brilliant MediEvil. The action takes place on the streets of Victorian London, half a millennium after MediEvil's victory in Gallomere.

As in the first manifestation of the game MediEvil II sees you take on the role of Sir Dan. It has exploration, puzzle-solving, battle and platform elements, with the odd bit of offbeat humour thrown in to liven things up.

The game has some extra features including more subquests and mini games but it never veers too far from the original.
