Sports games recreate a wide variety of real life competitive activities. Depending on the sport, these will either have an action or strategy focus. Popular sports games are often released on an annual basis, each year the game receives new player rosters and game improvements.

More recently these sports games have started to provide the option of controlling a single player rather than the whole team. This gives the game an almost role play feel as the gamer works to develop their chosen character through the course of a season. Then there are the range of sports betting options to choose from as well.

Rising Board is a fun, addictive arcade-surfing game, almost perfecting the concept of bite-sized play. There's just a couple of flies in the ointment which keep this from being a great time, every time... read now

Skate 3 courts the mainstream with sales targets and an all new, squeaky-clean city as well as team play, Own It and Kill It awards for each challenge and a much expanded online experience. However, despite several improvements, as a former skater, a part of me is mourning the loss of the rough-edged, dissenting streak of the previous outing... read now

With Mario Tennis we get the kids together to look at this great 3DS title and put it through its paces. The characters are a great hit with all our ages, especially memorable from recent outings such as Super Mario 3D Land. We also look at the multiplayer and how everybody gets on with playing against real opponents... watch now

Grand Slam Tennis 2 brings tennis to PlayStation Move but ends up being jack of all controllers and master of none. Great fun for families but for grownups more promise of things to come than a fully fleshed out motion experience. I suspect Grand Slam Tennis on Wii U will be the de facto version... read now

What sort of gamer are you?

Our columnists each focus on a particular perspective and fall into one of the following types of gamers:
