Gex
Crystal Dynamics' famed gecko Gex has finally hit the PlayStation with his witty humor and excellent game-play intact.
Kameo: Elements of Power

Finding flight simulators that present a complete package is a rarity as some handle great with a solid interface but the missions are lame or the graphics may be excellent but the game is over almost before it started.
Crimson Skies
Nathan Zachary, gentleman air pirate and leader of the Fortune Hunters, is back at it again.
