Shining Soul

from: Atari

It's unfair to compare this game with something like Zelda or Golden Sun, for example, but although the gameplay is quite a simple 'kill and collect' RPG it is pretty addictive once you get into it. The graphics are nice - not outstanding - and the music is fairly good. The game is also quite challenging later on when the 'dungeons' get larger and are more populated with enemies.

You select 1 character type out of 4 for the entire game - I have tried all but like the Archer the best as this character can shoot from a distance and can kill enemies through bars quite easily which keeps your stats up. A good tip is to revisit areas which you've already cleared as this way you pick up more items and gold and up your stats before the next ... Read More:

Noddy: A Day in Toyland (GBA)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: The Game Factory

February 03, 2006
There were no reviews for this game posted when I bought it, but having been nagged for several days I went ahead and took the plunge.
As with so many GBA games I was worried the game would be played with for 10 minutes then regulated to the bedroom floor.
This new Noddy game seems to be a hit, although I must stress I don't think older children (over 6) will find the game much fun.
The easy level took about 45 minutes to complete but strangely enough the game seems colourful enough to warrant several replays at this level.
The normal level takes a bit longer.
I tried the normal level myself and the one down side I found was the driving, Noddy's car drives like a 2CV on ice.
But all in all the game has kept the ... Read More:

Sega Smash Pack

from: Atari

August 01, 2003
Ah, yes. The Sega MegaDrive. It was the centre of Sega's empire at one time, and it was such as success that Sega estimated over two-thirds of households in Japan had one sitting comfortably next to the TV. Three of the most popular games from that era have been taken and emulated perfectly on the GBA. The games in question are Sonic Spinball, Ecco The Dolphin, and the legandary Golden Axe. Read on, fellow Sega enthusiast!

Sonic Spinball: This game is cool. No questions asked. Some bright spark at the Sega Technical Institute had the idea of a Sonic pinball game. Rumours have it that the original draft idea was to have Sonic themed pinball tables. But Sega went one better, and actually decided to use Sonic as the ball! GENIOUS!!!

Robot Wars: Advanced Destruction

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: BBC Multimedia

November 30, 2001
I think that advance destruction is very good, it has everything, build your own robot and even battle with the house robots. The few down points are that some of the robots are pants and some dont even exist anymore! Panic Attack is probably the best robot although you cant put the robots on its back, you can only flip them. Also, you cant take on the house robots while battling in a vengence battle, which i would love to do. The good points are: Good-ish graphics, good choice of robots and good arenas. I have not got bored of this game, and probably never will!

WWE Survivor Series (GBA)

November 19, 2004
When i bought this game, i was expecting a bit too much. I thought i was purchasing a fast, good graphic, wide range of moves, decent roster to choose from on the move wrestling game. SADLY, this game is none of these. Take my advice, stick to ps2 versions and keep clear of another poor effort at producing a wrestling game for a handheld.
