Please note: This special series of VideoGamer.com's Top 10 is a buyer's guide for Christmas 2007 and New Year 2008, and as such only includes modern titles available for the currently supported platforms. It is not a best of all time list.
10. Kingdom Hearts II - PS2/PS3.
One for those PS2 owners out there (and owners of PS3s with backwards compatibility!), Kingdom Hearts II, from Japanese developer Square Enix, is a super-cute role-playing game which fuses all that's great about Disney with all that's great about role-playing. You'll visit a number of lands from Disney movies, including themed areas from Pirates of the Caribbean, Tron, Mulan and Aladdin. You should be able to pick this one up for about £15, making it a great stocking-filler for any role-playing fan.
9. Titan Quest - PC.
Sure, this one's over a year old, but it's still a super RPG that PC-owning RPG fans are sure to get a kick out of. What's great about Titan Quest is that it can be played almost entirely with the mouse, giving it a certain charm. It's got everything you'd expect from an RPG - hordes of mythical creatures and impressive productions values. For those of you twiddling your thumbs waiting for Blizzard to pump out a sequel to Diablo, you could do a lot worse than Titan Quest. And you can pick this up with its expansion, Immortal Throne, for under a tenner.
