Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Hardware and Accessories
from: Electronic Arts

June 28, 2007
I bought this game close to when it was released and i thought it would be as good as the third harry potter game but not the same lay out as the fourth. It was great at first while in grimuald place as i like the way you get to cast spells because it's different than just pressing one button to cast. What i didn't enjoy about this game is how you spend alot of time running around the castle doing jobs for other people which can be pretty boring as the castle is so huge. There is not really much to do and i hate the fact that when ever you make a discovery and go up a level Murtle keeps appearing and stopping you from what your doing.
The game is overall a good game but the dueling is pretty hard and frustrating as you have to use protecto ... Read More:

Lord of the Rings: The Third Age (PS2)

This game is a dead-end, cheap, turn based combat game which defines the problem of repitition, bordom and storyline-dementia brilliantly. Basically I am congratulateing this game for being a template of what to avoid.

To give you a taster of just how cheap this game is, it end with your party teleporting in fromt of the great eye, and engaging it in turn-based combat.

Dirge Of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Hardware and Accessories
from: Square Enix

November 16, 2006
Dirge of Cerberus is by far and away the worst entry into the final fantasy cannon, let alone the FF7 series. The game is a incredibly lacklustre shooter that would just have been ignored if it wasn't for the words 'Final Fantasy' in the title. The gameplay itself is poor, enemy ai is incredibly basic and it is a incredibly easy game to beat, you don't even have to change your gun much. Its a short game too, it can be beaten in 8-10 hours (if you watch the numerous cutscences). Even though the gameplay is poor the storys good right? Well short answer no. Final fantasy games are known for having epic involving stories, the same can't be said for this game. It follows Vincent Valentine, a secret charachter in the original. You find out a little about his past and deal ... Read More:

James Bond 007: Nightfire (PS2)

A worthwhile entry to the 007 games but certainly not the best, some of the missions are super tough too which can be off-putting for general action fans. I would stick to Everything or Nothing or, the best of the series, Agent Under Fire.

Buzz! Junior Jungle Party Bundle (PS2)

from: Sony

October 20, 2006
Strictly for children from ages 4 to 7. Some patient adults like parents, grand-parents, baby-sitters can get some enjoyment out of this Buzz Junior game DVD but mostly the kids will have fun with it, specially when you have three or four players. Comes with four custom made paddles with a four color coded guide to teach your young ones about colors. Good graphics. Main downside of this DVD game is that your offspring is likely to grow out of this game very quick.

Kingdom Hearts (PS2)

from: Square Enix

November 03, 2006
When I saw that Square Enix were going to mix the characters from the Disney Movies with Final Fantasy I could not see how it would work. Disney games in the past have always been very basic and for the younger gamer whereas Final Fantasy is for hardcore gamers who dont mind spending hours on end to level up there character. However, no one does RPG's like Square-Enix and once again they have passed all expectations and produced a great action RPG which is up there with the best of them.

You play the role of Sora, a young boy who's world gets attacked by the heartless: an evil organisation run by Disney villans, and gets separated from his best friends Rikou and Kairi who become sucked into the "darkness". In a quest to find his friends he also has to stop the heartless ... Read More:

Brothers In Arms: Earned In Blood (PS2)

from: Ubisoft

October 28, 2005
This fantastic first person shooter is extremly heart wrenching. Make desisions so quick you don't know if death is right around the corner! Even though it's very good, it's mostly the same as the first Brothers in arms. {Road to Hill 30} Also, it can get very hard at times. But I would urge you to buy this game.

Datel Max Memory 32MB (PS2)

... but that is the only attraction of this card. You see: yes, you can store all of your game saves on on little card, but it really isn't worth it. Why?
Because the card is horrendously slow. You may want to have some extra space but the difference in saving & loading times is phenomenal, leave alone noticable. A game that should take 4 seconds to save on the standard 8MB Sony Memory Card, may easily take 20 seconds to save with this one. Basically, this card is the definition of quantity over quality, and it's up to you which is most important. Personally, I would recommend forking out the extra money and buying the four seperate Sony 8MB memory cards- the time saved on loading Pro Evolution Soccer replays alone could be spent working to pay off the overheads.

Official Sony EyeToy Camera (PS2)

Well I used the Eyetoy for a while back in the day when I played my PS2. It was a great innovation at the time, and a fun game too! But after a while it just began to gather dust.

That is, until my friend mentioned to me that he uses his Eyetoy as a webcam and a mic, so I researched it on the net a bit and fund a site that easily helped me through the stages of turning my Eyetoy into a webcam. (Pretty simple, you just need the right drivers depending on your Eyetoy model and then just set the settings correctly!)

The picture quality is amazing, much better than my Logitech webcam that I used until I started using my Eyetoy. Even the mic is better too! You can get a new Eyetoy from eBay for about £6, that's a bargain when you compare it to PC World's prices for a webcam that's ... Read More:
