Shrek 2 (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Activision

June 18, 2004
When i bought this game, i wasn't expecting much, but i was pleasantly surprised.Although the game can grow a little monotonous if you play it too much, when playing with friends it is great fun. You can play with up to 3 other people and whether your playing with young gamers or adults, the game can be very entertaining.
However the game is rather short and could do with a few more levels. It's a very easy and laid-back game that can be completed in a couple of hours.
Definately not for someone who wants a challenge but it's worth having just to muck around on with mates.

Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex (Xbox Classic)

Crash 4 is a very good game for all ages. It has quite good graphics, fast gameplay, funny storyline and ranges of different types of leves such as the hamster ball, bosses and normal levels. It loses a star in it's easiness but then get's it back in it's power to get people to play on the same level over and over again so i give it 5 stars as would of the Xbox People after all they have made it a classic.

Crash Nitro Kart (Xbox)

I have never played such a bad computer game. The graphics are awful, the story is farfetched, and it is just not fun. I recommend everyone not to touch it. When I purchased it from Amazon, all the reviews said it was good. But I beg to differ!

Simpsons Road Rage

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

March 22, 2002
With 'The Simpsons' being the greatest cartoon in the history of mankind, I was extremely excited when I heard of the release of this game. My experience of simpsons titles is mixed but I'm glad to say 'Road Rage' is a huge exception. After the first few minutes, I was hooked. Gorgeous graphics, bundled with all the real character voices, and funny jokes.

It has a "Road Rage" mode where you go out, collect people, then drop them off (but there is a time limit). Then there's "Sunday drive" where you take as long as you want collecting the people you want. THen there is "mision mode" where there is 10 cracking levels to complete all with different characters.

You can unlock places and characters on "road rage" mode. And there ... Read More:

Myst III: Exile (Xbox)

That's all I have to say. No. This is a bad game. Do not, under any circumstances, buy it. Even if it's a matter of life and death.

Actually, maybe in a life/death situation, but otherwise no.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

November 15, 2002
I am a fan of the Harry Potter books, and I was satisfied by the Harry Potter games. They're good fun, and quite challenging for younger gamers. This game is an action adventure game, which is quite short but good all the same.

I found that the environmental graphics were reasonably good, but that the appearances of the people were not particularly good. The xbox is capable of very good graphics, but EA didn't quite fulfil an xbox gamers expectations.

There are some very dull levels of this game. There is no jump button, so some challenges that should take a minute or so end up being a huge hassle, because Harry often doesn't grab onto the ledge properly. Duelling can be quite hard as there is a delayed reaction when Harry does his ... Read More:

This game has dated graphics, and there isn't much freedom. It may be fast but that isn't a good thing as it is basaically the game controlling itself, you would be better off watching a film. Storyline? There is'nt one! And all levels are as boring and frustrating as hell, don't waste money on this, it is'nt worth it.

Dancing Stage Unleashed (Xbox)

from: Konami

March 12, 2004
XLNT game. Got it as soon as it was released because we peordered it... so unlike the previous review I have actually tried the game!!!

I can't get enough of this game. We have 3 other dancing stage titles on the PS2/one so I was really looking forward to this one and I've not been disappointed.

The steps seem to flow better so I find it easier than the dancing stage games on ps2 & one, however, looking at the game, the beginner mode appears much harder than the beginner modes on the other games.

I really like the selection of songs but obviously this is a personal preference. There are 2 Blondie songs: Heart of Glass & Call Me, Big Brovaz (Nu Flow), Ebeneezer Goode (Shamen), and loads more. There is a selection of songs from their PS2/1 ... Read More:

Haunted Mansion (Xbox)

We bought this coz it was cheap and just wanted simple fun. We got more than we bargained for! Although some camera angles were a little frustrating the game lasted quite a while and was was excellent fun. The design of the puzzles was very imaginative, with all being different and excellent fun. Plenty of minions to shoot (although fairly easy to kill with practice). Plenty of scares and jumps to make you laugh!!! Wouldn't have paid full price but at this low cost is certainly worth playing.
