Wu-Tang Taste The Pain (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Activision


Having completed story mode with 4 out of the 9 characters, and come very close with the rest, I can honestly say that this game is difficult. It does require you to be extra quick, and mentally very agile.

The skin on my thumbs wore away after playing this game so much, but given that I am such a hardcore Wu-Tang fan, I'm probably the exception to the rule. the soundtrack is awesome, better than pretty much any other beat em up - ever.

Graphics - good, not the best, but the novelty of fighting as one of the Wu-Tang Clan more than makes up for that. The multiplayer is excellent, up to 4 players can whoop each other asses all day long on that thing, as well as team modes, as far as I can remember, the first game that ... Read More:

International Track & Field - Platinum (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Konami


This game is purely for button bashing intense fun, i too have breached 9.00 seconds making 7.55 Javelin is pretty tough to beat records, high jump but i had a gift, demolishing most of my friends who barely qualified. i suppode if you are bad at button bashing this game will only frustrate you, but for the gifted few this game is pure entertainment.

Riven: The Sequel to Myst (PSone)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Acclaim


To port a sophisticated PC point and click, logic puzzle filled adventure title like Riven on the 'lowly' PSOne gave us console only gamers the chance to play one of the best games of its type. It might have taken 5 discs to do it but the fact it runs so well and (still) looks so good having, arguably, the best graphics of any PSOne game is reason to recommend it even now. The problem is that like the original. much less attractive, Myst (also PSOne/Saturn) the actual gameplay is an acquired taste. Riven was the first PSOne game I ever played and I went from awe, through frustration to almost hate at one stage. Although beautiful to look at it is painfully pedantic and requires considerable time, effort, observational skills and copious note taking to complete ... Read More:

Blood Omen Legacy of Kain

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Crystal Dynamics


One night in the spring of 1997, I brought this game home through reading about it in a magazine.

I was enthralled by its dark, Gothic scenery and powerful, chilling musical score. That was just my initial reaction to the game. Then, when I played it, I could not stop because of its intriguing story line. It is about a petty nobleman, Kain, who goes into a small town and tries to lodge there for the night. But the innkeeper refuses him and sends him back into the cold, bitter night. Outside the inn, he is killed by unknown assailants and is sent to the hellish underworld. Chained and tortured, Kain is confronted by the necromancer Mortanius. He offers to resurrect Kain so that he can take vengeance upon his assassins. Kain accepts this, not realizing ... Read More:

Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha - Platinum

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Avalon Interactive


It's Street Fighter 3D for he ps1... some of the old classic characters are there (Ryu, obviously the Street Fighter mascot), and some new ones. I have to say that some of the new characters in this game were some of the worst things capcom ever created- they are ridiculeous looking, virtually unforgetable, and have cra p attack moves. Released in 1997, and being one of the first few fighting games alongside Tekken back in the day, gameplay is still pretty experimental. The turbo speeds which made the 16-bit Street Fighter games so much fun doesn't seem to exist on this game. While there are combo attacks that can be pulled off, etc, the fighting is far from hyper. The music is nothing classic either, and the only decent b/g tracks are Ryu's theme and Sakura's. Maybe ... Read More:

Dancing Stage Fever (PSone)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: Konami

October 24, 2003
I have never had so much fun laughing at my husband trying to dance in all my life!

Only bad thing about this is that the kids never get to have a go since we are always using it.

Warning - really addictive, but its good excercise at the same time. My kids (I) have got Party Edition, EuroMix, Fever and now we are going to be getting Disney Mix as well... can't wait for some more to come out.

Saga Frontier 2

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PSone
from: SquareSoft


SaGa Frontier 2 is and RPG that i feel has never garnered the recognition that it deserves. I read a lot of articles about it which rated it as 'average', a mere bank balance-builder for Square in view of the Final Fantasy X project.
Those articles were wrong.
As with previous (so far unreleased) offerings from the SaGa franchise, SaGa Frontier 2 allows the player to follow the adventures of more than one character throughout the game. This gives it a greater replayability value than other more linear RPG's but also allows the player to tackle the game and discover different facets of the storyline, some being unique to one scenario.
The graphics admittedly are beginning to show their age but with the use of vibrant colour and beautifully constructed pre ... Read More:
