Lego: Indiana Jones (PS2)

I have bought the previous LEGO games, so I kinda knew what to expect, but this game simply blew me away, this game is similar to the other LEGO games but at the same time it has a lot of new things, like cars, horses, bikes, and so, the levels are huge as usual. One thing that I really like about this game is the diversity of each level, there are not two equal levels. This is a game for all ages, dont be folled by the LEGO title, this game has lots o puzzles to be solved and other many things to unlock.

This is one of those games that everyone should have on their collection, definatly a pearl on PS2.

Burnout Paradise (PS3)

Graphics in this game will completely blow your mind but play it for more than 10 hours and I assure you, you will get bored. I still believe that burnout 3 was the best burnout ever, I would not recommend that you buy this game. Buy something like Gran Turismo 5 or Race Grid.

Nintendo Wii Classic Controller (Wii)

So I was around a friends house and I saw he had one of these snazzy controllers and I had had a bad experience with the unofficial wii gamecube controller clones (the cables are *really* short*...) so I thought I'd get one of these babies.

So I've just received my order and fired up my copy of Resident Evil 1 ready for some thrills and spills and to my absolute dismay it does not work with Gamecube games.

Now this I hardly believe is a technical problem I think Nintendo engineered it NOT to work because you'd get all the great cheap gamecube games and play them and not as many Wii games.

Thankfully I've got a few controllers ordered off of Ebay so it's not a total wash out but I am really disappointed that this ... Read More:

WOW! Simply... wow. This is one heck of an addicive game. I've never been as hooked up on a game as this one. I simply can't stop playing.

Its fast, fun, and action-packed!

And you can now re-live ALL the star Wars, from the classics, till the new ones.

Simply irresistible! Oh! And its for the whole family, and if its a bit difficult for the smallest, team up; the coop-mode is excellent. Two players at the same time - no split-screen.

MySims (Wii)

I bought the DS version and was instantly addicted and when I received a Wii for christmas i bought it for the wii as well.
I thought it was addictive on the DS but its 10 times more addictive on the Wii, so much to do and you get to build stuff and really make the town come back to life with new charectors in the hotel everyday.
The only problem was that it ended. Cant they create a never ending My Sims?
Highly recommended for all Sims fans at all ages :)

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (PC DVD)

March 24, 2006
Ok so I'm a fan of Morrowind so a lot of frowning and comparing went on as I played Oblivion... 'this not as good as that... that could be better' I mumbled as I walked over a hill and saw a procession of waterfalls bathed in the light of the setting sun... And never complained or compared again. As with Morrowind you start slow after a while you get over the hump; experience kicks in and you really start to enjoy yourself. While there is a similarity in landscapes that can get a bit dull with a bit of searching there are many places where the views are just incredible. This is a sandbox game that rewards players, theres a huge number of hidden places, hundreds of side quests; and you can also buy houses if your so inclined. The game tailors itself well to your style of playing ... Read More:

Race Driver: GRID (PS3)

May 30, 2008
I read a few negative reviews and was slightly wary before purchasing this game, I need not have worried as this is the best driving game yet on the PS3. The handling isnt vague or difficult as described its an arcadey style of scene but the handling is very realistic and sim like, I have played the GTR, GTR2 series race sims on the pc for years and the handling for rear wheel drive super/muscle cars is spot on. I suspect all the gripes have come from Gran Turismo, Need for speed, Crash Burnout etc fans who dont have the patience to learn how to drive properly its absolute tosh that the handling is too sensitive. Anyone who enjoys real sims and also the F1 on PS3 and can be bothered to spend a few hours learning how to control the cars will love this. The graphics and fluidity are ... Read More:

Action Replay for Nintendo DS/ NDS Lite

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > VideoGames
from: Datel


I personally think this is a good product made for the ds and ds lite. Although it sometimes freezes the game, action replay can be used straight out of the box without any difficulties. The process of installation is easy and quite quick.

It is fully updatable via usb meaning you don't have to buy newer versions when released.

Wall-E (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > VideoGames
from: THQ

July 04, 2008
I got this as part of a package with my new Nintendo DS. It's a pretty fun little game, with some clever little touches (such as the fact that WALL-E has to compact rubbish into cubes to throw at switches/knock out his enemies). I also liked the fact that some levels you play as WALL-E, others you play as EVE.

However, the graphics are a little dull sometimes, and it can get a rather frustrating, as WALLE-E tends to fall into pits with distressing ease (though this may be due to the fact this was the first game I've ever played on the DS and I was a bit clumsy with the controls!) Thank goodness there are regular save-points on every level.

The cutscenes between levels that move the story along are excellent, done in a visually distinctive, very sweet style ... Read More:
