The Incredible Hulk - Ultimate Destruction (GameCube)

Prince of Persia - Warrior Within (GameCube)
First sequel to the brilliant platform-action game, in which the Prince is being pursued by the immortal Dahaka, for his creation in a rift in the timeline. Only by travelling back in time and stopping the creation of the Sands of Time, can the Prince find peace once more.

Icewind Dale II (PC)
A fairly old, but good RPG, made by the Baldur's Gate team and using the D&D rules.
