Pokemon Battle Revolution (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware
from: Nintendo

December 07, 2007
I think this is a really good game because you get to play wi fi & battle with others all over the world. After you have battled them you get to collect thier passes and then you can play with thier pokemon in free battle.
I had both the diamond and pearl and played them often on DS so I was very familiar with the game. I thought it was great to be able to download all my pokemon onto the Wii game.
If you don't have a DS with diamond or pearl it would not be fun!

Xbox 360 Wireless Headset (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware
from: Microsoft

November 24, 2006
...... the wireless headset is NOT as clear as the wired one. I bought my first wireless headset, based on reports of better sound clarity and the convenience of no wires. BOTH (more of that in a moment) of my headsets haven`t sounded any clearer than the wired one. The reason I say both of my headsets is that I`m on my second one, the first one stopped charging after a few weeks of use. My second headset had just failed, with the same fault. My friend also bought a wireless headset at the same time as I bought my first one. His stopped charging about a week ago, at least he had a few months use before having to return it.

I`ve got a wireless headset for my mobile phone, which only cost about £12. Why can`t Microsoft not get a headset, costing ... Read More:

SingStar Next Gen - Solus (PS3)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware

December 07, 2007
This is no different from the ps2 singstars except for the online jiggery pokery. The highlight is the singstore, a great credit cad muncher it is though.
The 30 songs that come on the disc are Ok pretty varied so no one goes wanting. Singstore offers hundreds of extra tracks at under a pound each, well 99 pence.
at such a reasonable price it isn't difficult to get loads more songs.
At the moment there are just shy of three hundred songs to download with more being added almost every week.

Like many others who have placed a review, my headset also broke after about 3 months. I could hear other people but they could not hear me. I gave xbox customer services a call on 0800 587 1102 and without me even asking they have said they will send me a new one free of charge within 7-10 days.

Venom Blue and Pink Silicon Graphic Skin for 2 Wii Remotes (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware
from: Venom

December 08, 2006
I wasn't sure about the quality of these skins, since they're not official merchandise, but they're actually quite good.

They're not as thick or padded as the covers that come with the Wii Remotes, but they feel nicer in your hand, enable you to distinguish whose controller is whose, and also provide cover for the nunchuk.

A good buy.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - Hard Evidence (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware
from: Ubisoft

March 20, 2008
I have heard of but not watched the TV series. I bought the game simply because there is precious little to choose from for the Wii console yet. I've really enjoyed the Harry Potter game, my partner spent hours on Resident Evil IV. Both these other games offer 360 degree game play and reasonable freedom to move in a range of directions, and to choose the order in which you tackle or ignore certain game options.

Both of us really disliked this game. We found ourselves being forced to search limited areas for obvious clues. Taking these clues back to the labs and using the equipment was no fun either - it's fairly obvious which machines to use, there are limited options here. The worst part was when you tried to interview someone. The game gives you a small choice ... Read More:

We sat down to watch the film as a family, ranging in age from 7 to 60, and all enjoyed it very much. So much so, that I bought the game for the 7 year old. "Good choice, nanny" he said. And nanny loves playing it too!

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Games Hardware
from: Konami

March 04, 2005
This game has some of the hardest boss battles in any game. "The End" for example can sometimes take an eternity to kill. Then theres the awful camera mixed with the lack of a soliton radar system and its a recipe for disaster - what happens is you cant see the enemy in anyway shape or form so you end up running into them and alert after alert :( I loved Metal Gear Solid 1 and 2 and managed to get through both on all levels of difficulty...I struggled to get through snake eater on Normal mode.
I think the trouble here is the addition of too many new features all at once, instead of just revamping and modernising the gameplay mechanics.
However to draw a line under it all and say this is a bad game would be incorrect, the storyline and cinematics are second to none as is ... Read More:
