World of Goo

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Brighter Minds

October 12, 2008
Have you ever seen a US Cellular commercial? If not, you're lucky because you're missing a stomach turning spectacle. The ads are engineered to pluck your heartstrings with some totally corny and improbable emotional story. After wiping away your tears at the heartrending scenario, you realize that they were just trying to sell you a lousy cell phone. They used a touching story about helping grampa find meaning in his life to pitch me a cell phone plan? I want my emotion back! What a rip off! I don't appreciate being tricked into caring about some dumb product.
"World of Goo" will not do that to you. There's just nothing fake about it to leave you feeling disappointed or underwhelmed. It is authentically beautiful in every way. The ... Read More:

Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2

This is a fantastic program! The layout of the controls is near perfect and the color control from utilizing camera calibration is outstanding! I'm acheiving accurate colors and saturation with ease and the tonal qualities that I envision through local adjustments and easy to use gradients.

The Sims 2: IKEA Home Stuff

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Electronic Arts

June 23, 2008
I've always thought the stuff packs were overpriced, I still think $19.99 is too much for the amount of stuff in the pack. But if you can find a good sale I'd say that this stuff pack should be first on your buy list.

Since buying Ikea Home Stuff I think I've used the items in most of my homes. It is a fantastic pack to have if you have Apartment Life too. It's a great way to furnish apartments on a budget.

So don't buy at the full retail price, look for a sale and you'll be quite pleased with the stuff pack.

World of Warcraft

I saw other posted similair reviews to what I'm about to post.

If you're looking at getting into this game, avoid it for now. There are several other mmorpgs coming out that I'm considering picking up now. When I first started playing this game two years ago it was fun, challenging, and custormer service was good. As of November 2008, the realms are down daily, the patches have made the game easier and easier (Quest objects sparkle from across the map, instead of actually having to LOOK for them), classes are unbalanced (they constantly nerf and buff classes with each patch), and customer service is horrible...not providing real answers to thier customers.

Overall, Blizzard has finally come to understand that so many people play this ... Read More:

This game got 5 stars on x-play,and i would also give it the same rating.In the game,you are a man onboard an airplane when it crashes into the water,luckily,you're alive.you swim to a tower and then take a pod underwater.You find that Rapture is completely crazed up with splicers,the most common enemies in the game.splicers are crazy,they wear buuny masks and try to kill you for ADAM.ADAM is like money that you can use to upgrade your guns,buy guns, or buy powers.You get needles in the game that you can you use to inject yourself and get powers.There is electro bolt(thunder)which you can use on splicers in the water so that they die a kind of slow,but surely painful death.There is also fire,ice,teleckenesis,the ability to through huge swarms of insects,and Big ...

Roxio Creator 2009

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Roxio

September 09, 2008
Roxio Creator 2009 is an update to the popular Roxio Easy Media Creator 10. The update provides a much smoother and visually appealing interface than its predecessor and now supports processing HD and Blu-ray DVDs through an additional cost add-in available from Roxio. Since I do not have a Blu-ray capable reader, I did not try this add-in. The four general functions available on the main screen (Data, Video, Music, and Photo), each bring up a sub-screen with the specific features (applications) which are available in that category. Once a feature is selected (i.e., Burn Audio CDs), the application easily walks you through the steps necessary to accomplish the task.

Overall, I found the package to be very easy to use and thorough in its functionality. All functions ... Read More:

Corel VideoStudio Pro X2

Childrens Toy Shop > Software > Software
from: Corel

September 18, 2008
I have used Ulead VideoStudio since version 3. The last Ulead released product was Version 11 Plus. Then came Corel Ulead VideoStudio 11.5 Plus. This latest incarnation, Corel VideoStudio Pro X2, is the first released solely under the Corel name and without Ulead anywhere on the box. But don't let that fool you. This is, for all intents and purposes, VideoStudio 12 (is the X in the title a roman numeral?).

As with each new version of VideoStudio throughout the years, this release sees a number of improved and/or added features incorporated into an already solid home video editing product. Most notable of these in the special effects section is the paint option, which allows you to freehand paint on your video (think Indiana Jones style maps to draw your route) and ... Read More:
