Viva Pinata (Xbox 360)

from: Microsoft

November 30, 2006
This is a very odd game. At first glance its a super-cute Sims or Animal Crossing type of game. But on closer inspection it could have many interpretations, and I'm not entirely sure they considered who their target audience was. The main objective is to "breed" pinatas, by getting them to dance with each other. You can get them to "dance" with their own offspring, feed them to other pinatas, and then beat them to death with a shovel to a chorus of childish cheers. Not that I wish to spoil the "plot" but there is also some cross species breeding involved. And some of the things that the shopkeeper says are clearly not aimed at a young audience. The truth is tho, that I don't think there is enough about this game to appeal to most adults either, ... Read More:

Top Spin 2 (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360
from: Take 2 Interactive

April 07, 2006
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.

Dark Sector (Xbox 360)

from: D3 Publisher

Dark Sector is a funny old game. Playing as a secret opps agent called Hayden Tenno, you're sent to a Russian state on one final mission, but are infected with a deadly virus that has been ravaging the locals. Somehow, it has served to make you stronger, including metalising your body and giving you a triple bladed boomerang potruding from your hand called a glaive. Your basic quest is to shoot and slash your way through the story, separating as many limbs from your enmies as possible and causing as much destruction as you can along the way.

There's no need to go too much in depth with the story, because it really isnt all that great. It never fully explores itself, presenting characters you dont need to care about and often leaving you alone ... Read More:

Xbox 360 512MB Memory Unit (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360
from: Microsoft

April 20, 2007
It's a memory card that lets you save your progress and profile. I can get 5 or 6 arcade games on here that can be transported between my XBoxes (does not work with Sega Vintage Collection games, eg. Sonic).

But, it is still just a memory card. Why it should cost so much to fit in a proprietary slot remains a mystery. More overpriced hardware by MS.

Project Gotham Racing 3 (Xbox 360)

this game is really fun and unique. I think it is clever and good how u get points for exacuting stylish manuvers and get even more when u combo them today. the steering is tricky but so fun when u get it perfect with the rite slide. my only criticism is its a bit short and the oversteer can get soo annoying. and the graphics excellent much better need for speed and burnout. i think u should definatly buy it if u like tricky and fun racing games

In my opinion THE most annoying thing about this game is Shu always shouting "i won't give up"Its just so cheesey and cringing I wish someone would just say to him 'who asked you if you are going to give up?The main plot is alright but I lost intrest after a while.The graphics were very good but the voice acting was TERRIBLE.I don't think it is worthy of the good reviews it has been getting

Viking: Battle for Asgard (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360
from: Sega

March 28, 2008
As a big fan of Norse mythology I was heavily let down by this title. The story line is poorly constructed, and developed even worse, and the game seems to expect the user to already know/not care what is going on. Some of the fighting sequences can be quite enjoyable, but I feel the lack of immersion into the world of vikings really takes away from any positives in this game.

Xbox 360 universal media remote(Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360
from: Microsoft

December 02, 2005
I use my xbox to watch alot of media stored on my computer. Every time i wanted to pause something I found that my wireless controll had gone into power save and I coulndt reallyt undeerstand what the buttons were supposed to do..
The media remote has changed all that. I dont use any of its extra functions like programmed it to my TV so I find the remote a bit bigger than it needs to be, and its a bit annoying because you need to point it directly at the xbox 360 to get it to work. (my other telly remotes seem to work as long as you ponint them in th egeneral direction of the telly.)

Good bit of kit if you watch media, or use your xbox for doing more than just "games"

Rainbow Six: Vegas (Xbox 360)

Update June 2008: I re-played the entire game, after only intending to take a quick look at it, and enjoyed it so much I had to comment:

I think my previous review below was unfair. It is easily one of the best games I have played on the Xbox 360, clearly has HUGE replay value, and I put it up there with other game master pieces like the Splinter Cell series and the two Ghost Recon Advanced Warrior Xbox 360 games.

No save options, you just have to get to the next checkpoint. Some people may enjoy playing the same level over and over again. I don't, and there seems to be no cheats available on the net, so if you get fed up and stuck somewhere it's game over.

Setting the game in Las Vegas casinos ... Read More:
