Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Nintendo

November 30, 2007
Graphics are good for the wii and technically it is good BUT.... it's slow, boring, very hard and the bossess are stupid. you have to hit a single pixel on their head to kill them and it just gets frustrating. all the enemies are the same and it gets very repetetive. the dodge mechanism is rubbish, and the light gun doesn't aim properly as it has no calibration tool. if you want a zombie shooter get House of the Dead. it's much more fun and you don't need the nunchuck, with the venom light gun and the calibration tool it is a proper light gun shooter.

Call of Duty 3 (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Activision

I bought this just recently very cheaply (£13 brand new) and if you ignore the flaky control system, it's basically a very good involving first person warshooter. Compared to medal of honor this was much more fun, with varied missions - the tank driving in particular was really atmospheric - although I cant find out how to replay that mission?
I can understand some reviewers getting frustrated with some of the control issues, but these don't really spoil the game, just be patient.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Wii)

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

June 28, 2007
Having played all the previous games (and hating the third person approach similar to EA's Return of the King in the Goblt of Fire) I'd have to say they've probably spent the most money on this one, and you can tell. The sets ARE from the movie, the voices ('cept one or two) ARE from the movie and even some of the music is FINALLY from the movie (only took them this long, didn't it?). If you've been frustrated or let down by how Hogwarts just didn't look like or even resemble the world of the books or films, this one cracks that nut. In fact, it's so big they've had to give you a map to help you out of getting lost.

And no more still-image montages, it's all properly animated (thank goodness). However, there is a knack to casting ... Read More:

Tomb Raider: Anniversary (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Eidos

December 07, 2007
This game is as good as everyone here says! One of the best games I have played. Once you have mastered the moves its great. We have given it 4 stars not 5 only because we thought we would try the training level first - Croft Manor, and got very frustrated, as considering it is supposed to be training, there were no instructions about what buttons do what, we had to keep refering to the manual. We nearly didn't start the proper game, but i'm so glad we did as it really is good, and you get prompted in the actual game regarding the buttons. It never gets boring either, we haven't finished it yet, and I can't wait to play it. I think you can get it for a bargain price now, so don't hesitate!

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Sega

December 08, 2006
I bought this game for my 6 year old daughter, when she first tried to play it she found it dificult to control and I thought that she wouldn't want to play it again. How wrong I was, this has become her favourite Wii game and can keep her amused for hours and me too! It's great to have a game that we can play together and enjoy, we find ourselves shouting or laughing when we fall off a ledge, moving bridge, mushroom or whatever we are trying to move over. Other reviewers have commented that it's rather childish, but it is for ages 7 and up - so if you want a more 'grown up' game, then pick something else, there's a large selection! The controls do take a bit of getting used to but once you do, it's great fun. You have the choice of playing the main ... Read More:

Cars (Wii)

from: THQ

December 08, 2006
(by Jiordan 12) My mum ordered this game for me and when i got it i was so exciting. I love this game and it never ends one of the best games. The reason i am deducting a star is because it is quite hard to steer and my 3 year old cousin struggles trying to go around a corner because iit is quite hard to steer. Other then that itis pretty easy, and you can do the full size experience (for teenagers, older children or adults) or the small cars one (for younger children). I reccommend this game to any one who was lookin to buy it.

Blazing Angels: Squadrons of WW II (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Ubisoft

March 23, 2007
Lets start off. The missions are hard, yes. You are an american pilot yes. But it has all the vintage aircraft, even the spitfire V, which is a BRITISH AIRCRAFT. The graphics are awesome, and the camera operation is so clever. If you press A on the wii remote, it turns you round to see the enemy. Frankly the best WW2 and simulator i have ever played on any platform. Brilliant all round.

Bully: Scholarship Edition (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games
from: Rockstar

March 07, 2008
Bully scholarship edition was my first ever game rental. There's an opening that evokes nostalgia and expectations of childhood anecdotes. Unfortunately, having not been a console owner until last year means that my first game rental experience actually came just two short weeks ago, sorry to mislead.

Bully is the only rockstar port available on the wii and while I often felt that I'd rather be playing Grand Theft Auto IV it is actually a great game on its own terms. Bully takes the GTA IV formula and applies it to a boarding school. Its not the cavalcade of death and destruction that you might expect and the violence is toned down accordingly for the setting. The weapons range from ever-reliable fisticuffs to a surprisingly powerful spud gun but the ... Read More:

Red Steel (Wii)

this game is a huge disapointment in several ways. firstly the worst is the controls, which are terrible and it basically makes the game unplayable. theres no blood when u shoot people and when u sword fight which i think is unrealistic. the graphics were pretty poor for a nintendo wii. also the game became rather boring after about 15 mins of playing it.
this game in my opinion is not worth more than £10, if u pay more than that, then u will just be wasting your money
