Dark Sector (Xbox 360)

from: D3 Publisher

a good enjoyable game that kept my interest. the combination of glaive and pistols made decision making an important part of the game. Some of the baddies were interesting and i particularly liked the puzzle element to the game.

i'm currently on chapter 7 and i believe there are approx 9 and for me, this game is definiely long enough.

i should also add this game is NOT for kids. I won't even let my 10 year old be in the same room when i play it.

On the whole I was surprised by how good this game was and if you like shooters it is definitely recommended

Soldier of Fortune: Payback (Xbox 360)

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

Whilst not continuing with John Mullins as the character, nor being made by the same people who made the previous two SOF, this is still a very good game. The game doesn't have many cut scenes and you never even get to see what the hero's face looks like, but it more than makes up for it with action.

The first thing that will impress you is the graphics, especially when you get to the jungle missions, the weapons rock, they aim easily and have a nice feel to them, the AI aren't very bright and are basically cannon fodder, but can still put you down if you aren't quick on the draw. Like all previous SOF games you can rack up a lot of kills, although I'd say this game is a lot shorter, and has less enemies than previous SOF games; but SOF ... Read More:

Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (Xbox 360)

from: Activision

Ok.. so this game sounds childish and silly - just for 3 years olds right? Wrong.

I am 28 and my partner is 29 and we are addicted. Its brilliant!! It takes aaages to get all the achievment points and there's just tons of super fun game play here. It's not too easy (I was worried that it might be) and its not too hard.

Positives: The amount of characters, levels, ships,minigames and the sheer fun value you get out of this game, whether playing it alone or in co-op mode. The star wars lego cut-scenes are hilarious!

Negatives: not many to be honest.. depth perception can be difficult. Sometimes the camera angles can be awkward. In co-op mode you cannot sign in with a second profile and unlock the achievements for ... Read More:

Lost: The Video Game (Xbox 360)

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

February 29, 2008
Having read the reviews about this game I wasn't expecting much, but being a fan of lost i really wanted to play it and it may have been that I was preparing for the worst but I actually really enjoyed this game. True there wasn't much action but being more of a fan of point and click games this suited me just fine. I enjoyed the mix of puzzles and story telling. The graphics are really beautiful and the sound is brilliantly eerie. It would have been nice to have more involvement in the lost storyline which carries on around you but as described it is a new character with their own story which runs concurrently. There are some pretty cool elements for example the camp evolves as you play the game and the begining and end of the episodes and cutscenes are just ... Read More:

GUN (Xbox 360)

With what I think is a phenominal storyline whith well casted characters who you quickly get to know and enjoy it's a shame the grapghics havn't been improved for next gen however despite that fact its still a must buy game, a comment which I heard recently was the map size, OK it ain't no GTA but even if the map was massive and interactive I don't think this as the quality of GTA for you to go back and back so the map size to me is no issue, for a fun story buy this game

Blue Dragon (Xbox 360)

I am still on the first disc of this three disc RPG, but I am really enjoying it. It is a little dark in places on default mode, but, changing the brightness settings in the settings menu on the game dealt with that. The graphics are not the best I have seen, but they're far from the worst so no complaints. All the chests and items that are available to collect are fairly easily visible and exploring the area and talking to people reaps rewards, as in most rpgs. The battle system is very like the old Final Fantasy games, turn based and simple to understand, and items and spells can all be equipped in the same way as in those games. I think anyone who loved FFs 7-9 will like this. I wasn't going to buy it based on some of the reviews on here, but I'm glad it was one of the ... Read More:

Tony Hawk's Proving Ground (Xbox 360)

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

November 02, 2007
I found this game second hand for a fiver so i thought I'd buy it and try it compared to SKATE instead of taking peoples word for it. Now, after playing SKATE for 9 months and being a skateboarder myself, I know what I expect from a skateboarding game, and for the past 6 years Tony Hawk has delivered. Unfortunately in the old games I got sick of lowering my stats to try and make it more realistic, such as having like 2 stats for ollie height so it looked nice when I kickflip, even though I could still ollie a bus with it......Although some of the level design is nice in THPG thats about all it has to offer, this game has nothing on SKATE and I had to turn it off after 10 seconds. Literally. I did a 360 flip and just didnt like the feel of diagonal down + double tap flip. its so much ... Read More:

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (Xbox 360)

from: Capcom

This game lost planet has a range of weapons and a range of brilliant challenges, the on-line games are brilliant fun and the campaign is just brilliant, if you don't play this game you are missing out on the fun. Sure it may be an old game but that just means that there are loads more downloadable content for it then, the live is great but as its an old game you bump into the same players quite allot, overall 5 stars is what is needed.

Need for Speed Most Wanted (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Xbox 360 Games
from: Electronic Arts

December 02, 2005
The game is one of the best out of the need for speed series, as it has great racing tracks and thrilling police pursuits. The Cars in this game are brilliant and give you a good sense of speed while drivng on although this is not the case for the begining cars. The blacklist races are the most thrilling yet annoying races in the game but they give you a sense of an achievement when you beat them and most of all it is better when you beat them AND steal there car from them as added insult to them. The game is brilliant and for any racing player this is a must to buy and even if you not a racing player you NEED to get this game.
