Which almost certainly means we'll soon be seeing a space opera made on a shoestring budget filled with Z-listers, using paper mache aliens as extras. Even if the show does get mega money chucked at it, with James Cameron attached to direct, it got us thinking about other games that would make awesome low budget sci-fi shows. So we knocked up a few in Photoshop for any interested studio execs.

Don't let that game get the better of you! And don't even think about resorting to such cheap tactics as 'using a guide'. If you want to beat a game without ever getting stuck, here are six easy-to-remember self help tips that will help you achieve your dream. You CAN do it.

Why, a cute kitty who also acts as a handy silencer for that handgun you're concealing in your pants, of course. In this article we just done typed, you'll find some of gaming's coolest creatures that also act as killing tools. Just be a pal and don't report us to PETA, eh?

He’s got a name that less sensitive types could make terrible puns out of, but you won’t catch us attempting such a thing when in the presence of Ray Muzyka. We strapped him to a table, injected him with truth serum and got him to divulge as many of the game’s mucky secrets, including why having three wizards in your party is a really good idea and why Fox News doesn’t know what it’s doing when it comes to reporting on games...
