Final Fantasy Anthology (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Sony

May 17, 2002
If you're a Final Fantasy fan, then by all means get Final Fantasy Anthology. These two Final Fantasy games are much better than the first two, with more interesting characters and storylines, though I feel that the crystals ruin the games; there's the dark knight Golbez attempting to get his hands on the crystals in Final Fantasy IV and the crystals shattering in Final Fantasy V.

Final Fantasy IV

This one is perhaps the hardest Final Fantasy to beat (this or Final Fantasy VIII. Final Fantasy VIII gets hard at the end, where this has constant boss fights, in which half of them are hard to beat, and when I say they're hard, I do mean HARD).

This one is the one that introduces the ATB (Active Time Battle) ... Read More:

Discworld (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Psygnosis


This game is absolutely amazing. A must buy for any hardcore adventure fan, it involves a hell of a lot of gags and is quite frustrating at times, but still an addictive masterpiece. This game will take you an age to complete but is well worth it. The only trouble with this game is that it and its prequel (Discworld 1) are some of the rarest games to find and quite expensive considering its a ps1 game! But still an amazing buy.

Grand Theft Auto - Budget

This is where it all began, the GTA series is one of the best and this is the unstoppable debut release.
Forget the 2D graphics because the gameplay is outstanding and you may get hooked.
Classic game, i reccomend it.

Metal Gear Solid Special Mission

Enjoyed it- completed it in 5 days. You get 300+ VR missions, then get to play as the Ninja for 3 levels. They could have done more with it though, added a story mode for the Ninja, etc...

Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Atari

May 18, 2001
On a whim I have bought a copy of this game again - I first played it perhaps 5 years ago.
Oh my God!
Even though I am still dead against the slightly blocky graphics and colours because the PS2 is very fluid I have to admit I still find it completely enjoyable.
And scary!
To be ducking around a badly lit mansion in which you know there are very dark and macabre things - silly. But you do.
I remember feeling the first time through many years back how I had encountered Silent Hill meets Resident Evil meets Koudelka.
Still impressed, gameplay very good for both characters and each lends its own perspective to the game - replay value guaranteed.
Do you dare to be Alone in the Dark?
I'm not sure I can take much more....

Driver 2 (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Atari

November 17, 2000
I was a huge fan of Driver 1 [especially the undercover missions] and I enjoyed the Take a Ride Mode as well. In Driver 2 the best thing obviously is the fact that you can leave your vehicle and hijack others. There is a big selection of vehicles ranging from Cars, Vans and Limousines to Buses and Trucks to Emergency Vehicles such as a Fire Truck, Ambulance and Police Car.

The cities are fairly big as well and you can explore them on foot - these are Chicago, Havana, Las Vegas [Being my favourite!] and Rio di Janeiro.

The Undercover Missions on Driver 2 are not as fun as Driver 1 in my opinion and can be very frustrating at times but the characters are still cool and interesting. in Driver 2 there is only one route to take for the missions where ... Read More:

Worms Armageddon

from: Hasbro


This is terrible and I'm seriously considering throwing myself off a bridge as a result of playing this. Don't bother buying it. Play monopoly or Risk instead. I know! Buy a rubix cube! Definitely don't get this. My friend Dan thinks it's a bit silly cos you can't have double damage. And he's right, even though he's gay. Love, Fred.

Best Of Heart Of Darkness

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Atari


I first played this game when it was first released and loved it. I loved it so much that I tried finding somewhere to buy it, but didn't and never got a copy :( until now :D I bought a mint condition copy off a seller on here and it's brought back so many wonderful memories.

Even my 14 Y/O cousin can't get enough. That's saying something. He's very much "games about cars, fighting or killing only please". He can't stop playing it now! It's all he does when he comes to visit.

The graphics are great, too. But I do agree with the user above/below who mentions the auto-save feature. That is quite annoying, but you get used to it and sometimes are thankful for the fact. The only other bad this I can say is that the gameplay is not long enough (for ... Read More:

World's Scariest Police Chases (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Type of Game
from: Activision

June 29, 2001
World's scariest police chases could possibly be the best game to be created in the history of gaming. There are two game play modes: Pursuit mode, the main game where you train and eventually work as a police officer, stopping criminals. There is also Free mode, this lets you drive around the huge (and crime infested) city of Ashland, stopping crime as you please. This mode also opens up new areas of the city to start from, such as the Beach or Police accademy.
For a Playstation One game the graphics and AI are very good. I am very good at driving games but am challeged by the criminals abillities. The missions are not so hard that you throw your controller down in rage, but not so easy that a monkey could do it. The balance is perfect!
However, I should ... Read More:
