Disney Friends (Nintendo DS)

from: Disney Interactive

October 19, 2007
i got this game for my 4 yr old to see how he wouod get on with the ds and he loves this game. there is quite a bit of reading so i sit with him and read for him, once i tell him what it says he can carry on and play with it himself. now when different coloured boxes appear he recognises when he has a new badge etc.. it would have been more helpful for the ds to say more rather than having to read for the little ones. he loved looking after each character and then new doors opening for new characters. he picked it up pretty quick but def needed some help to get him started. hes had it over a month and not bored of it yet....though he does only play it every couple of days.

FIFA 08 (Nintendo DS)

from: Electronic Arts

September 28, 2007
turn off offside, turn off injuries, turn off bookings and create yourself an excellent arcade football game that will make your thumbs ache.

graphically its more than enough for a handheld, being able to run one torunament at a time is a bit annoying but the gameplay is great.

at amateur level, your keeper will rush out but treat this game as an aracde score more than your oppnent and you will enjoy 4-3 matches.

auto switch is better than manual switch but only just, maybe 09 will iron out this minor problem.

Scrabble 2007: New Edition (Nintendo DS)

from: Ubisoft

September 13, 2007
I have owned this game for a few months now, but still love it as much as I did the first day I bought it. It has its flaws but you can still find it a rewarding experience, for example I thought I would find being unable to see the whole screen at once a bit of a downer, but I hardly notice it I am too preoccupied trying to beat my nemesis - Camilla. I have only managed to beat Camilla twice in several months of trying (the second time was today, the first time about seven weeks ago) and I play on average two or three times a day, which means the game is still an exciting challenge and there is still one better player to go after her, I don't think I will ever get tired of this game! This game is a fun challenge regardless of your skill level due to the ... Read More:

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Nintendo DS)

this game bored me within the first hour i played it,
you seem to have to travel the Hogwarts stairs forever, and with the game handling not being the best, playing gets a bit annoying.

Venom Complete DS Lite Accessory Pack (Nintendo DS)

from: Venom

August 18, 2006
The case isn't big enough to put in all the storage cases, some of the protecters don't fit well.

It's ok if you don't want to carry all the games with you & the case is strong.

Value for money? I think not!!

Lego: Indiana Jones (Nintendo DS)

from: Activision

June 17, 2008
This is a good game, as much fun as Lego Star Wars. In fact, it's the same game in different clothes. But without the satisfaction of the Jedi Slam. My main issue with it (despite the 4 stars) is that it has a habit of crashing silently at the end of levels. Not crashing altogether, but just failing to provide the actions needed to finish the level, so you can keep playing for hours and never find out what you need to do. Very frustrating, and it always happens at the *end* of a level. e.g. today I was playing a level that involved scaring flocks of seagulls. I think the final flock needs to be scared by firing a bazooka at the cliffs, but as I only got one once, got killed, and no soldiers appeared after that, I won't know until I've replayed the level. This happens ... Read More:

Professor Kageyama's Maths Training (Nintendo DS)

from: Nintendo

February 08, 2008
I bought this game today as maths is a weak point and I've really enjoyed the Brain Training games. This game is everything I expected it to be but after 10 minutes I'm suffering with bad motion sickness! The background is orange with little boxes that move horizontally from left to right on both screens and all the exercises have this behind so there is no escape!!

There are options to turn the annoying music and sound effects off but all you have to do to stop that is turn the volume down! You'd of thought they would have an option to stop the annoying background moving!

It's a shame because I may have to get rid of this game before my subconscious associates sickness with maths!!!

Conclusion: If you want basic maths ... Read More:
