TimeSplitters: Future Perfect (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Electronic Arts

March 25, 2005
words cannot decribe how good this game is but i'll have a go. i am not a serious gamer but i loved this game. the story line is brilliant and has real breadth to it. the arcade is fun and realistic and will keep you playing for hours. there are loads of characters to unlock as well as a few cheats and weapons.the weapons are great as well as there are lots , all of which you can do serious damage with, although not so much the baseball bat. i have been playing this game since 2006 and am only 32% of the way through so it offers a challenge for the serious gamer( i would think) but is still perfect for anyone. definitely worth every penny.if you like shooters BUY THIS GAME you will not regret it. oh yeah and its really fun!!!:-)

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
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:

The Godfather (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Electronic Arts

March 24, 2006
First of I think that its unfair to compare this game to a GTA:SA, mainly as The Godfather that game was released 2 full years after the former, but also because in my opinion no game copying the style of GTA will ever live up to its standards (with the possible exception of Saints Row), and this game is no exception. So for that reason I will judge it on its own merits.

The story line is well the godfather but instead of established characters from the film there is a new custom designed one. You do have a fair amount of customisation, you can include scars however I was a little disappointed by the fact that there are only about 5 hairstyles, 5 hair colours, 5 ears etc, and a very limited amount our outfits! The story line does not last long, I ... Read More:

SingStar (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2

November 19, 2004
I bought this as a gift for my sisters 16th birthday. It did not dissapoint, she was right on the ps2 giving it a go. We already had the 80s, RnB and another one but had major trouble finding this in any shop. So thats a bonus right there. It came 3 days after i ordered it. Its the only game with a story mode too it as the others are more fun based but this gives you an objective. Right this very min my sister is singing her heart out on it and im glad it did not dissapoint.

The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Disney Interactive

November 25, 2005
Bought this for my daughters aged 8 and 5 and some parts of it were a bit much for them so I was often asked to help out in order to complete the level. I would say it's suitable to anyone of about 10 years old and above. Pretty good game though.

Final Fantasy XII (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Square Enix

February 23, 2007
FF XII is really frustrating. At first I was worried about the new battle system, gambits & the lack of random encounters. However, the new system actually works very well & generally makes the gameplay more enjoyable. In a game as big as this, it would take forever to navigate around if you had to deal with endless random enemies. I actually think it's too big & the game lacks focus as a result. I almost quit playing halfway through because it got repetative & the story is dull & confusing to the point where I didn't know whose side I was on or what I was meant to be doing.

On the positive side:
There are loads of different kinds of weapons & the Bows & other ranged weapons are good fun. I really like being able to ... Read More:

Gran Turismo 4 (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Sony

May 05, 2006
this is the greatest racing simulation to date. the handling of the cars is realistic and the graphics are great. massive selection of cars will never leave you running out of cars to buy.

the races are varied and the tracks are designed very well an there are plenty of race events. with the sheer amount of race events comes the need for lots of persevierance, especially the 24 hour endurance events which take a minimum of 9 hours when using b-spec mode.

b-spec mode is a great mode to have in the game, especially if your driving skill is not up to spec or you just fancy a race on the sidelines to have a cup of tea and some biccies.

the five second penalty system can be quite annoying in the special events, when you are given a ... Read More:

from: Sony

October 19, 2007
This was the first ever Buzz! game i got and it was brilliant! it is worth the money by far and the rounds are amazing. The only downside is that you cant choose between old and new films because i don't know half of the old ones so i always lose! Great fun for the family rate it 4 and a half stars. It is so worth the money

Happy Feet (PS2)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PlayStation 2
from: Midway Games Ltd

November 24, 2006
This is the type of game you'd buy for a child of about 6 or 7 who likes Penguins.

Much like the film, you play the cute Penguin Mumble, who can't
sing but can tapdance brilliantly, for a penguin. The levels are basic, Dancing, Sleding down a cliff or
swimming, and most levels you have to collect things.
The graphics are pretty good, if a little bit chunky, but
the gameplay could be more varied. ***
