Family Guy (PS2)

from: Take 2 Interactive

October 26, 2006
Okay I had never seen 'Family Guy' the series until a few weeks ago. After the first episode I watched I decided that I was a fan. There's nothing more funny than laughing at how stupid the very politically incorrect Peter Griffin is.

Then a few days later I starting seeing this game lurking around some game shops in my town. The other day I decided to buy it at it's cheap price despite the review I read in a magazine (OPSM2 3/10) and to be honest I think it is just as great as one of the episodes. I love the levels where you play as Stewie and have to brainwash people to get them to do things for you as well as repestedly zapping innocent people. I'm not too keen on the Brian levels and yet to experience the Peter ones.

Prey (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

July 14, 2006
I really did enjoy playing Prey, the story's simple yet effective, the game play is fun, I like the range of weapons, especially the spider like grenades most amusing......but.....it just lacks that special something that some other games have, it doesn't prey on your mind, I wasn't itching to get back on the buttons. In short it just got to be a bit lack lustre in the end. That said it's certainly worth a go especially at the price you can get it now.

Topspin 3 (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

June 20, 2008
Top Spin 1 and 2 were great. Easy to pick up and fun to play.

In this second sequel it seems the makers, in an attempt to make the game realistic forgot to make it fun. Horrible dynamics and thoroughly infuriating gameplay makes this game almost unplayable.

Long gone is the conventional one button hit to return shots, instead we have to time shots precisely and press a button to pump up the shot and then press again to release! Three manouvres to return one shot is simply ridiculous. The characters are way too slow to allow fluid gameplay, and the timing requires the patience of a saint to perfect. Boring and a general nusiance to play, might I suggest that buyers/ renters get the prequels instead, or even Virtua Tennis 3 (another deeply ... Read More:

Grand Theft Auto : San Andreas Platinum (PS2)

from: Take 2 Interactive


This game is utterly mental. Loads of missions, bars and nightclubs, and mod shops and property's to rob and buy. The game is frankly huge: never mind one city: more like three. I bought this after i purchased vice city and loved it! The best thing is to fight for your territory! If you like GTA games, buy this! Go Rockstar!

Table Tennis (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

May 26, 2006
I recently purchased this game due to the fact it looked good and was incredibly cheap.

the game itself is easy to get to grips with, you can understand the basics after only about ten minutes of play, once you have those it is pure experimentational play which improves your game. i am a table tennis fan, however, even my sister loves the game too ( for both sexes: thumbs up). you can unlock new arenas, characters and clothes ( oooh the joy) but overall this is such an amazing game to play. the graphics are top notch and so is the RAGE engine's capabilities. it looks amazingly realistic and caters for hours of fun.

A must buy for anyone looking to have a little fun on their own or with their pals. Great Game!!

Top Spin 2 (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

April 07, 2006
New to XBOX and new to Topspin, i found this game to be great fun to play and quite addictive! Playing a career mode as your own character draws me back to play game after game. "Zoom" mode on gameplay is much better than having to play at the top of the court. Training is fun and if you switch coaches every year or so you can do a lot more and it DOES help your technique in the game. Overall, i really enjoyed this game and think it'll be one i'll keep and play again and again.

Bioshock - Limited Edition Tin Case (PC DVD)

from: Take 2 Interactive

August 24, 2007
If you ever read the stuff you agree to when installing software, you'll already know that the manufacturer is only selling you the right to run their software, and under sometimes quite restrictive 'rules'. You might think you've bought a game and own it - but legally, you don't.

But before buying *this* game you really SHOULD acquaint yourself with how VERY restrictive the rules are, and what you've really bought.

You are buying the right to install the game a maximum of 5 times, on one machine. Too bad if you upgrade your machine in the meantime.

This warning applies particularly if you're considering purchasing a second-hand version of the game, say from an amazon seller. You may install it, connect to the internet to activate ... Read More:

NHL 2K6 (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

April 28, 2006
I love playing the games but after your done playing a game against another team, the loading screen comes up and it wont load, it keeps going and going and doesnt stop loading, so once your game is finished i have to turn off my console and start again. Very annoying from a brilliant game. Only bad thing about the game is the loading bug. Not impressed at all with that. I dont know if its just my game or other people have the same problem tho, it may be a one off but bare that it mind.

Charlie and The Chocolate Factory (PS2)

from: Take 2 Interactive

July 22, 2005
I don't know whether do be embarrassed or not. This is supposed to be a game suitable for 3 year olds, and at 24 I was scunnered.
The quality of this "kids" game is superb, although the difficulty factor makes is so frustrating and repetitive. Redoing the same section of a level a million times is enough for the Playstation to warrant a good kicking.
The aim is pretty simple, but tricky to master how is a 3 year old supposed to direct Charlie through this maze of rooms and puzzling tasks? I'm sorry, but I can't see it.
This is a good fun game but not to be played by the short tempered or the young.

Stronghold: Crusader (PC)

from: Take 2 Interactive

September 27, 2002
This Stronghold is as good at the first with a few changes that enhance number 1, if you like the first buy this. Don't under any circumstances buy the latest Stronghold 2 don't know what they were thinking when they created this, I think they felt that it needed tweaking to keep it fresh when all they needed was to enhance again retaing the qualities of the first two, what a shame
