Medal of Honor: Frontline (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

December 06, 2002
I bought this game thinking that it would be as good as rising sun but this game is sooo unrealistic for example I have a sniper rifle, I headshot a badguy I think ok he's dead annoyingly he stands up !!! The people look like paper, the only detailed part of the game is the weapons.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

November 11, 2005
I loved the previous Potter games for the many activities and the chance to do so much exploring around the brilliantly designed Hogwarts. Azkaban was the best yet for that and when the new game came out, I had hoped for more of the same. What a disappointment to find a clunky, old platform-style game with next to no skill or secrets involved. A complete waste of money. MAKE A BETTER ONE FOR PHOENIX! You got it right first time with the old format. stick to it! Please!!

The Chronicles of Riddick - Escape from Butcher Bay (Xbox Classics)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Sierra

September 30, 2005
this has to be one of my favourite games on the Xbox, im a big fan of the film(s) anyway but dont worry if you didnt like the plot in the chronicles of riddick film, this is a different story. as the title suggest, your in butcher bay, a notorious prison that no one could possibly escape from? it really is quite a brilliant game in every way, the graphics are beautiful and the prison is incredably dirty and dingy and quite discusting... its great, no shiny boring metalic walls here, everything is covered in unique graffiti. the gameplay is also amazing, admitidly, the controls seem a bit slow and sluggish at first but after a while, you'l realise that they are perfect. the sound is also a high point in this great game, inmates and guards chatter ...

Driver: Parallel Lines (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Atari

March 24, 2006
When i read the review I had a vision of a game that was infinitely better and improved over its predocesser...

The truth is it is not.
Although it improves in some areas, such as the heat only being given to your car and Driver going back to its routes it still suffers some very simple problems.

AI and the police have been improved to be able to follow better through traffic, however they will get you for the simplest things! sometime, you stop at an intersection (to avoid being chased) and a police car hits you from behind chasing someone else and then promtply chases you because you went through a red light?

They will also get you for pulling a gun out whilst driving which is easily done when pulling ... Read More:

SSX 3 (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

October 31, 2003
Having played the first 2 SSX games on the Playstation 2, I can say that SSX 3 is a great improvement on what has gone before. New features include:

- One massive mountain, divided into 3 peaks, which you can explore freely in between events.
- Expanded Uber trick system, including rail tricks and monster tricks.
- Earn cash through finding secrets and winning events. Spend cash on rider stat's improvements, new gear to wear, music tracks and art.
- Greater variety of events, including big air and rival challenges.

SSX is a lot different to all the other snowboarding games out there such as Amped. SSX throws away realism and instead focuses on massive tricks, imaginative courses and high speed. I personally love the arcadey feel ... Read More:

Oddworld Stranger's Wrath (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Electronic Arts

March 04, 2005
As with the oddworld games, this game is very well executed in artwork and gameplay. I have thoroughly enjoyed playing it and got quite addicted to the point where 7 hours of a Saturday was spent in continuous gaming!

I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a fun game which requires some strategy and quick thinking - the characters are great and the stranger himself, a take on Clint Eastwood, is fantastic.

Star Wars: Republic Commando (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Activision

March 04, 2005
This game is pretty good. The graphics are good, the gameplay is smooth and the weapons are cool. It follows 4 elite clone troopers and follows the storyline vaguely. The HUDs are very cool. The screen is as if you are seeing out of the visors and if you get shot a lot your visor cracks or if you kill an enemy at close range, blood splats against the visor. This then gets cleared by a white line that comes across the screen.This game is pretty good. If i had played on it before at a friends house i would have got it. Get this if you like star wars.

The Bard's Tale (Xbox)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox
from: Ubisoft

March 25, 2005
I am sad to admit that before I played this game, the last game I had played was Zelda on my Super Nintendo. And as far as being a beginer, Bard's Tale is a great way to start, it kept me amused and I was immediatly pulling all nighters. The game was easy to get the hang of and keeps me challanged with out making me feel discuraged. Great Game.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend (Xbox)

When i first played it took a while to get used to the controls, but when you do it's great!! Before playing i went to Croft Manor, i was a little disappointed when you have to complete the first level in order to open doors. But the assault course is really fun and challenging. All In All I Loved IT!!!!
