Wolverine is Back and is Kicking ass in his own Multi Platform game.

In this adventure you will encounter countless enemies and familiar faces as you fight your way through the game in order to finally find out who has mutanted your body. you will encounter familiar enemies along the way, such as: Magneto, Juggernaut and sabertooth.

The gameplay is awesome and you will be able to continue playing for hours, there are many fighting combinations to do and many ways of defeating your enemy. There is a new strike attack that can be used to good affect on your enemies.

The game's graphics are very good. it's about time that Wolverine i.e the coolest character in the X-Men series had his own game.

this screen not only gives you portible playablility for your nintendo gamecube. but it enhances the graphic of the games your playing when it is set to 60hz. i haven't seen any t.vs, monitors, or any other type of screen which has a better sharpnees of display. the difference is deffinately noticeable. if you have a gameboy player u can really tell what a difference it makes. i recommend this screen to anyone who owns a nintendo gamecube. it can also be used on the n64 and snes.

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > GameCube
from: Eidos

June 27, 2003
Just one look at the front cover is enough to tell you everything. The picture of a bald man in a suit holding 2 guns and the name of the game 'Hitman 2' tells us that this is not a game for 'ickle Jimmy on his 5th birthday.

Hitman 2 is one of the most violent games you will ever play. Our hero (or should it be villain?) 47 is now retired as a contract killer and has retreated to a church in Sicily for redemption. However when his friend and mentor Father Vittorio is kidnapped by a twisted russian crimelord, 47 is fored to don his suit, tighten the fibre-wire and go back to his previous bosses for information.

The first thing you notice is that the graphics are greatly inproved. There is more speech and the the vioce acting is superb. There is a tutorial ... Read More:

Lost Kingdoms II

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > GameCube
from: Activision

June 06, 2003
Don't get me wrong, this is a good game, but thats all it is.

The story follows a young girl who is supposed to be heir to the throne getting caught up in a struggle between two nations at war. She has the special ability to summon monsters from cards. A gizmo given to her by her mother when she was younger allows her to do this.

The gameplay allows you to attack, summon, transform using your cards. Some have single attacks, some summon a monster to attack, or defend, or heal for you and some allow you to transform so you can fly or break down walls. There are over 200 cards to collect, and many monsters to defeat of all types. Cards gain experience through use, which allows them to be upgraded to stronger cards. The game sees you going to many locations, deserts, ... Read More:

Fire Emblem (GameCube)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > GameCube
from: Nintendo

Ah the Fire Emblem series. I'm guessing you never knew about it until Marth appeared in Super Smash Bros Melee, right? If so, I'm one of these people too and I got curious about the Fire Emblem series and eventually bought this as my first Fire Emblem game.

I'm so glad I did, I've been obsessed with it lately. You control a young mercenary named Ike and he will be the main character throughout the entire game. Thankfully, Intelligent Systems did us a favour and made him extremely powerful. Along the way you'll meet many other characters including the money grabbing, alcohol drinking, gambling Makalov, extremley dedicated Knight of Crimea Kieran who fears nothing. Not even an axe to his head. And my favourite, the lazy Wyvern Lord from Daein, Haar.

If you've played Fire Emblem ... Read More:

Blood Omen 2 (GameCube)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > GameCube
from: Eidos

January 24, 2003
I picked up this game, knowing nothing about the legacy of kain series, and having read some bad reviews in magazines. I must say that I was very impressed. The game starts off slowly, getting you used to the controls, but soon heats up, often bringing new challeneges that prove quite difficult to complete, and take more than one try. The combat system is basic, but easy to use, and the hack'n'slash action can be difficult when you first start the game. yes, there is quite a bit of talking, but that's quite alright, as the speech does sometimes hold clues and/or tips on how to get past certain bits of the game. What I particularly liked was the way that you can play the game is two markedly different ways. you can go stealthily, and only kill for neccesity (when you need a health topup, or the guard is in front ...

International Superstar Soccer 2 (GameCube)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > GameCube
from: Konami

May 03, 2002
This game is a lot of fun when playing multiplayer. The gameplay is so basic but this is an advantage. It eradicates the chances of a Pro evo expert winning against a football game virgin. It's hard to get a rhythm with the ball when in possession, meaning you cant just run and score with the same technique like in Pro evo. I thought that Pro evo 3 couldn't be beaten as a multiplayer football game. It's a great development from the classic ISS on the old SNES. The only snag with this game is no club teams. Buy this if you want a good arcade game to play with mates. An absolute bargain here too.

This game is great. The bongos make the game much funner and more interactive than your typical platformer, I would recommend this to anyone who like platform games with a zing.

This was a present for my wife, but I think I have played it more.

A must have if you are a Harry fan. Good fun for sports games fan, general good action fun.

I think it is out on all platforms, but the 'Cube version is a lot of fun (I don't know what the others are like).
