Top Spin 2 (Xbox 360)

New to XBOX and new to Topspin, i found this game to be great fun to play and quite addictive! Playing a career mode as your own character draws me back to play game after game. "Zoom" mode on gameplay is much better than having to play at the top of the court. Training is fun and if you switch coaches every year or so you can do a lot more and it DOES help your technique in the game. Overall, i really enjoyed this game and think it'll be one i'll keep and play again and again.

Rayman: Raving Rabbids (Wii)

If ever there was a game on the Wii that would ache your wrists - this is it!. Some of the mini games like the dancing can be so frustrating when you have spent ages shaking the nunchuck only to fail! but then again there is something about it, that will make you think 'just one more try' even though your arms are killing you!. The rabbits are very cute and funny and keep you entertained and the range of games is pretty good but a little repetative at times. I think this game is best played taking turns with someone else. Great fun!

This game was good at first but I clicked on something and I lost my best mini-game. I only had 1 more game left and I cried all night. DO NOT GET IT.
I had to give it back. RUBBISH!

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.

Test Drive Unlimited (PC DVD)

The game is amazing and you can literally drive for hours up mountains in the cities in exotic sports cars. You compete in races for money to buy new cars and houses etc.

Firstly here are my machine specs: AMD Athlon XP2400+, 896MB Ram, ATI Radeon X1650 Pro 256mb.

To get the game running OK on my machine - and by ok I mean 15-20 fps which is not great by any means but is playable (Apart from in cities where it drops at times to under 10 fps). I had to disable Details (Flying bits of paper and stuff which don't really add anything to the experience) and Traffic (which makes the game easier because the police aren't after you all the time!), AND set detail settings to LOW which just seems to change the draw distance ...

Pokémon Gold

Now come on...it's unlikely that you've never heard of Pokemon if you're reading this. And you should all know that this version has 251 pokemon which you need to capture.

You start off as a basic pokemon trainer, as you raise and capture more pokemon you're party grows stronger and evolves as you attempt to become the Pokemon master by beating all the gym leaders and the elite four and finally ??? (I won't spoil it for you).

Basically it's an addictive RPG that involves you raising and capturing pokemon...do you really need a long and in depth review for something so basically addictive. Just buy it.

Happy Feet (PS2)

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. ***

First of all you must buy a car, not the best obviosly because they cost a lot more, but a half decent one. Then you have to buy a house. In your house you get news from clubs challanging you to race them and different upgrades. You can see your statistics eg how many cars you have, how much money you have.You have a garage where you can store your cars and your living room is just for show.

After you buy the house you can explore the city and there are many things to do. You can go to garages to upgrade your current car. You can go to car rentals to rent a car or you can buy another car from different places like FORD.

When you join a club eg ford you can race the people also involved in that club. When you beat that person you move up ... Read More:

Need for Speed Most Wanted (Xbox 360)

The game is one of the best out of the need for speed series, as it has great racing tracks and thrilling police pursuits. The Cars in this game are brilliant and give you a good sense of speed while drivng on although this is not the case for the begining cars. The blacklist races are the most thrilling yet annoying races in the game but they give you a sense of an achievement when you beat them and most of all it is better when you beat them AND steal there car from them as added insult to them. The game is brilliant and for any racing player this is a must to buy and even if you not a racing player you NEED to get this game.
