Age of Empires III continued the long reign of this video game series at the top of the strategy genre, bringing a huge graphical and feature update to the previous iteration.

Eclectic Gamer review Sun, 10 May 2009

Our family first played Pikmin 2 shortly after its release in 2004, on the GameCube. It's a fun, light hearted, but sometimes devilishly hard strategy game. We'd played the original Pikmin too, and everyone said that Pikmin 2 was one of those sequels that really improves on a game, and it was - more on that later. However, as usual, the game got traded in for something else that someone wanted more, as we're always on a budget here!

So, having heard rumours of Pikmin 3, I was ready to get back into the Pikmin world again, so very pleased to see Nintendo re-releasing Pikmin 2 with the new Play Control series. I think the Pikmin games, until now, are probably under-rated, games that passed under the radar somewhat. I'm always surprised that many people haven't even heard of them! Simply because a game looks cute and kiddie on the outside does not make it easy to play or one that a gamer should overlook.
