Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent (Xbox 360)

October 20, 2006
This is truly an awesome game. I personally will never get tired of the storyline, partially because you can quite literally change it yourself. Not only do you get to make decisions such as what objectives you complete and which side to do them for (either NSA or JBA), there is so much stuff (I say 'stuff' because there are so many gadgets and weapons to name)at your disposal from wall mines to ultrasonic emitters and from Sub-machine gun (which a new addition of a cool laser scope) to the trusty old SCK pistol. I also like the new way of interacting with enemies. Now you get to choose what to do with them. You can either kill them on non-lethally take them out. Yet another good new addition is you can grab people from EVEN MORE places now, ... Read More:

Crackdown (Xbox 360)

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

August 24, 2007
This is an entertaining enough game but lacks any real depth. Once the 21 bosses have been wiped out, an achievement that should have been more challenging, there is little reason to return to the game. The final 'twist' is poor too and makes little sense. A good bargain bin title.

Tomb Raider: Legend (Xbox 360)

Never was into the other Tomb Raider's found them boring all though they were good still. But this one is an exemption. Fantastic gameplay and graphics and some real neat features, such as her moves in climbing and combat moves are outstanding. Also I love the Flash Torch you have, charges solar powered and only takes a few seconds to charge and last for ages, basically it's an unlimited Torch but made to be a little realistic. Coz it's very essential tool to have in the game. The weapons are great, you can upgrade your weapons, such as the 2 pistols Lara's always had, and you can change her outfits, providing you unlock them. Puzzles are different alot more interesting, you just have to work out where to climb and find a way to get to where you ... Read More:

Two Worlds (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360 Games
from: South Peak

September 07, 2007
Wow this game is a joke...
Released AFTER Oblivion, aiming to be its equal at the minimum.
Have the game designers even played Oblivion? And they had the nerve to release this?
I'd expect these graphics on my N64 let alone a Next Generation console.
Cheesy acting, dreadful animation, odd controls... What's going on?
Enemy creatures sound effects are the best, it sounds like a group of the producers had a few pints and just started shouting the stupidest sounds they could make into a microphone!
The Games' first impression is horrific, I stood with my mouth agape as I watched pixelated bald people attempt to talk in some sort of olde english
with an American accent.
I mean come on. Ever heard of espionage? ... Read More:

Brian Lara Cricket 2007 (Xbox 360)

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

March 23, 2007
Whilst its the best cricket game on 360... the previous one (2005) was at least more competitive. I mean I've played this on the hardest, realistic setting (test) and made over 1200 runs in 60 overs in one innings of a test match. The only way to make it competitive is to save it after an innings and then load it up and play as the other team and try to chase down the mammoth score you made previously. The only other way to make it remotely competitive is to play as Bermuda or Ireland against Australia or the West Indies. It makes it MUCH harder... you have to rely on lots of singles, but its STILL too easy! I tried a 20/20 game on the 'slog' setting thinking that would be the hardest. I made 435 and bowled the computer out for 65. Silly.
That said its still ... Read More:

Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation (Xbox 360)

So there is life after Call of duty 4! Its been all most a year now since I first bought call of duty 4 and no game has really stayed in the disc tray for longer than a few hours before its hurriedly replaced by COD4. Well I can tell you that this has all changed thanks to Ace Combat 6. I've played on many games that try to offer such a brilliant plane experience. Games such as Blazing Angles 2 and Over G fighters but none come close. If you are reading these reviews to see which is the best for you , or you are pretty certain you want to buy it then go, go right now don't stop until you get to the shop! I can't stress enough how much this game has impressed me. Like another reviewer said the opening video to the game made my eyes really light up with fantastic clarity (and ... Read More:

this game is so rigged and fixed to the max. when ever you need to score one more goal in the later stages of the game, it knocks you blatant. i needed to win by three clear goals and when i go two goals up even with a game breaker it will not let me score. i have tried for hours and it just keeps knocking me. i will end up smashing some thing. i dont mind losing fairly but this is a joke beyond a joke.

Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend (Xbox 360)

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

April 07, 2006
Lets all face it, expectations for this game were never that high. Lara Croft has suffered one of the biggest falls from grace in videogames history and it was hard for anybody to see a way out. After 6 games, all identical in many ways nobody would have been blamed for thinking that she had nothing more to offer, just as well that they were all wrong.

Tomb Raider Legend builds upon the original formula, which lets face it maybe old but it works. Lara now has a much smoother look and feel, her movements are fluid and she no longer maneuvers like a tank. The puzzles are cleverly implemented but simple enough to make you kick yourself when you realise the solution. Another greatly improved area is the combat... it still has vast room for improvement (lets not forget, at the ... Read More:
