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.

Don King Presents: Prizefighter (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

June 13, 2008
I wanted to like this game sooooo much ..... but it is very bad and poorly created. It doesnt play well at all and in every regard it is vastly inferior to EA's Fight Night series. Unlike Fight Night, Prizefighter is not fluid at all in gameplay, the control system is poor, and it appears that no effott has gone in to creating a realistic and enjoyable boxing sim. Every boxing fan should avoid this game as it will only dissapoint.

In every video game magazine this game got a poor review. Now normally I will always test a game myself instead of relying on reviews I read .... but believe me, every review I have read on this poor game has it absolotely spot on. This game sucks .... and sucks big-time.

The game looks ok and ... Read More:

Amped 3 (Xbox 360)

from: Take 2 Interactive

December 02, 2005
Unlike the more straighforward approach of the original, Amped 3 heads for a more SSX-like direction, with emphasis on silly characters, crazy moves & tricks, big mountain areas and stacks of challenges. The feel of the game mimics real snowboarding very well, despite this not being a simulation game as such, with a great sense of fluidity and altitude. There's one slight anomaly in that turning in powder is here labelled 'carving' whilst in real snowboarding this is not what carving is!

Graphics are superb, with views from high up being pleasingly life-like, especially when you look around with the right stick.

The challenges are sometimes easy, other times difficult. Getting on to a rail (or tree branch!) is sometimes ... Read More:

Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne (PS2)

from: Take 2 Interactive

December 05, 2003
First off, it's probably best to play the first game before this one, having said that it does have a 'previously' option that fills you in on the plot, so the impatient among you won't be left hanging with the plot.
So, Max Payne 2, bigger and better? Absolutely. The essential format hasn't changed terribly much since the first game, that is to say that control action-hero slow-mo master Max Payne as he plows through waves and waves of enemies with a gun in each hand and a death wish in his heart, the action being interrupted by graphic novel styled cut-scenes which provide the dark and surprisingly good story for the series. WARNING this game (like the first) is a wall-to-wall action experience in gameplay with very little exploration or puzzle solving ... Read More:

Stronghold Legends (PC CD)

October 13, 2006
Damned good. Welcome back short nights sleep!!. Familiar format plus lots of extras - enough said surely? Won't be sharing the same shelfspace as the disappointing and ultimately unplayed Stronghold 2. Although that said this purchase did coincide with a new computer so maybe time to dust off S2 and give it a second chance - presuming all the patches are now sorted!

Dora Saves the Mermaids (Nintendo DS)

I bought this game for my Dora Fanatic 3 year old. It truly was a waste, she got fed up within half an hour. My 4 year old and 6 year old also tried it - both dismissed it instantly! What more can I say..... they were expecting something much much better!!
