Fallout Collection (PC DVD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > 3 for 2
from: Avanquest Software

June 16, 2006
Fallout is not perfect, what is, but it's definitely in the top three role playing games of all time. Personally I, and many others, would put it in the top slot. What makes it so good is that it can be played in many different ways with many different type of characters. You can decide what kind of role you wish to play, and the game will not force you to solve every problem by killing things regardless. (which the majority of RPG's do) The world is well fleshed out and internally consistent which gives an incredible atmosphere. With many different ways to play and choices to make it's a very replayable game.

It can take a bit of acclimatising to, as it's not just an ego massager like many modern games, so stick with it for a bit ... Read More:

Chessmaster 10th Edition (PC DVD-ROM)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > 3 for 2
from: Focus Multimedia Ltd

A very good program, which I love using - but there are issues.

Minor fault
Some of the lower ranked 'opponants' on the program make some very strange moves - for example, sacrificing the Queen for no reason at all - when they are winning. This turns the game around immediately.

Major fault ......
The program sometimes calls a stalemate - (thus ending the game) when it is clearly not a stalemate. Quite often, this happens just as I'm about to call an extremely obvious checkmate.

Having said that, I would still recommend this program.

The Emperors Mahjong (PC CD)

This is a great game for all those who love the Mahjong games. So many different layouts. The only negative is that the tiles don't have the numbers etc written on them. But hey, that makes it more challenging!You will enjoy it.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl (PC DVD)

The game would not load. There was extra instuctions about changing your virtual memory on your pc in order to play the game but to no avail. My PC is top notch and plays everything else available but it won't play this game! What the hell is a swap file anyway???
What is the point of making a game that won't play on decent spec computers? Unfortunately I have thrown away my amazon receipt, so I can't even send it back......probably.

Mystery P.I: The Lottery Ticket (PC CD)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > 3 for 2
from: Focus

This game is what is commonly referred to online as a "hidden object" game. In other words you have a list of objects that you must find to progress to the next level.

The game is made up of about 20 levels and is lots of fun. There is also a bonus game which is unlocked if you find 20 keys hidden throughout the game.

The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because, for me, it lacked plot and had few mini games, which are quite common with this type of game. The only mini game it did have was a matching pairs game (which alternates between match the pictures, match the colours, and match old to new).

If you are unsure whether you would like this kind of game you can legally download it and play it for free for 1 hour at Big Fish ... Read More:

Rome Total War: Barbarian Invasion - Official Expansion Pack (PC CD)

Why oh why? Why does this particular version of Rome Total War have bugs? No other version i have tried has bugs that appear here. Just a few, here and there, on the battle map and the campaign map as well. Blank video clips, stuck mice and cameras. Really, ther is no need for this. The game is largely untouched and thank goodness for that but the bugs are not acceptable. As there are other versions of this game available withut bugs (such as eras), there is no reason to buy this bugged one. RTW rates 10/10 This version rates 8/10

This game needs a patch downloaded from sega before it will even load. The patch no longer seems to be available as we several hours trying to get it to download. No patch thus no game so total waste of money.
