I cannot beleive some people gave this game a 1 star!!!!
You complete weirdo!
Surely if oyu like pokemon previous games for gameboy advanced and S then why on earth dont you like this game!?!?!!?!?
No way is it "exactly like previous games" well the origin is still the same as in an adventure with 2 evil villians and you trying ot catch pokemon, but hey thats why everyone LOVED pokemon games so much!!
and it isnt the same because you do use the stylus i think and theres a different story-line as usual and overall is a well put together game!

If you are a fan of pokemon games this is a must buy!
Really ignore the others, if you look at there other reviews there just moody >:|, lol

Nintendo DS Lite Handheld Console (Silver)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Nintendo

October 12, 2007
We owned an original Nintendo DS for two years - we bought it right when it released in December 2004. When I first saw the DS Lite at E3 in 2006, I was thrilled. The game great handheld unit design - but lighter! Brighter! Tuned! It really showed that Nintendo had been paying attention to customer feedback during those two years, and had tweaked its unit to be even better than before.

First, the weight. We always *loved* the design of the DS, with its folding top. As PSP owners, I can't tell you how many time that poor PSP screen gets dinged or scratched. We had to buy extra carrying cases for our PSP and get screen protectors. In comparison, the DS's clamshell design means the screen is perfectly protected when you tote it around ... Read More:

Assassin's Creed (Xbox 360)

from: Ubisoft

November 16, 2007
I heard so much about this game being brilliant that I purchased it on friday. It was back at the store on the monday being exchanged for something that I would actually enjoy.

I don't deny that the graphics are quite possibly the most stunning thing I've ever seen, but while they might help it along it's the gameplay that makes a game brilliant. This is far from brilliant.

The first mission will epp you interested, the second may do, but by the third you realise that the whole stealth issue can just be completley ignored and you can simply hack and slash your way through the missons and complete them in double quick time. I also found the controls finaky at best, especially the gentle move command, which (on the training ... Read More:

Guitar Hero III: Legends Of Rock with Wireless Guitar Controller (PS3)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Activision

November 23, 2007
Having had this game for the Wii since it came out, I thought I`d get for the PS3 to take advantage of the downloadable content, a big mistake! On the Wii I could play most songs on hard and even a few on expert hitting most notes. On the PS3 it is a mission to get a decent percentage on easy. The controller seems to be out of sync and doesn`t always register notes. I tried callibrating the lag to no avail so went on the internet looking for help to find out loads of others have had the same problem. A terrible product and its a shame Activision seems to have their heads in the sand as far as fixing a problem they obviously know exists with the PS3 version of this game. If you got another console I would recommend this game as it`s great fun but definetly ... Read More:

Cooking Guide (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Nintendo

June 20, 2008
Personally I found this to be total rubbish,

Even after following recipes to the letter I end up with very unsatisfactory results.... runny sauces et al.

The speech recognition has to be disabled because when you use it and do anything remotely noisy (like chopping ingredients!!!) it thinks you are speaking and it gets totally confused taking you back through the cooking instructions.

This means you have to use the stylus which is hardly ideal when cooking. It was very disappointing given I thought I had found something useful to do with my DS rather than 'training my brain' or zapping aliens....

I would say spend you're money on a good Delia cook book.

Xbox 360 Headset (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Microsoft

December 02, 2005
The headset was great for almost a month until the actual plastic part on the headset broke off, meaning the earpiece and microphone were left. So I had to bring in my own way of holding the headset up by strapping a hairband around my face to hold the microphone up. The design overall was flimsy and can be broken very easily. It stopped working tonight.

Sight Training (Nintendo DS)

What a terrible game. A collection of boring mini games, it follows a similar format to brain training but is not nearly as good.
