Nancy Drew: The Phantom of Venice

Although my kids haven't played this particular Nancy Drew game before, I would just like to express how very impressed I am with these PC games. In many cases PC games are overrated. However, in this case these quality games are clean, fun, and well worth the price.

Diablo Battle Chest

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Blizzard Entertainment

December 14, 2003
Diablo II is by far one of the greatest games ever made for the computer. Absolutely incredibly fun and entertaining. There is a problem with the battle chest load discs for the mac:
You cannot download Diablo 2 and then download Diablo 2:LOD as separate downloads, it will not recognize Lord of Destruction (LOD) as an installable disc with all macs running 10.4 or higher, the way to get around this is to download them all-together. However when you do that, you have to select the download without ever putting in the cinematic disc, in other words, the download that is 1.3 GB (it will say it's a full download of D2 and LOD, just without the movies.) As opposed to the 1.7 GB one which will contain the movies.
Also, you may need to run the ... Read More:

World of Warcraft Battlechest

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Blizzard Entertainment

October 02, 2007
This is a fine RPG where you occasionally meet other people, but it's not really an MMO game. My main reason for saying that: You have no way of actually changing the world. Destroy an entire village, come back later in 15 minutes, and it's all the same. No way of leaving your mark. You go back and forth running quests all day; you'll likely revisit each single location about 10 times with no difference except something new to find or kill. Kill an enemy who is the object of a later quest you haven't yet acquired, and you'll have to go back and kill him again. Given it takes 5-10 minutes to go virtually anywhere (or get back to your body when you die), this game is designed to suck your time away with little reward.
I spent two solid weeks ... Read More:

Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Logitech


Well thought out keyboard. Nice feel on the keys.

I use it to play COD 4 and Crysis. Works really well with xFire and Ventrilo for clan play/communications.

Wish they had put headphone/Mic ports instead of USB connectors on the back of the keyboard.

The Sims 2: IKEA Home Stuff

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Electronic Arts

June 23, 2008
I have gotten every Sims 2 Expansion and Stuff pack released, so no hesitation for getting IKEA Home Stuff. I played the game for a couple hours and I think IKEA Home Stuff has a lot to offer...but it could have added so much more.

I was a little disappointed that IKEA Home Stuff didn't come with new clothes or hair, like Kitchen and Bath did. I was also disappointed that, while the furniture and everything is great, there's nothing extraordinary about it. It's nothing new, just a restyling of we've always had. Everything stays pretty much the same (I wonder why we still don't have laptops for the Sims? Is there an Apple Stuff pack on the horizon?)

What I did like is that you are able to put stuff on top of the dressers, which I've always wanted ... Read More:

I bought this game used on Amazon. Steam will not let me play it because it says it is registered to someone else. I tried all the recomended help settings with no answers to any of my e-mails. Thank The Lord for the nice woman who I bought it from giving me my money back plus shipping.
I have bought my last game involving steam lic.
Most of the reviews are done by Steam employees.

Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures

Ground breaking is all I can say about AoC. The combat is no longer a snore and bore fest. The graphics are amazing. Anyone who complains about this game has not read any of Robert Howards works. I find it amazing to see places in game that I have read about through Howard's Conan stories. A definite good time is to be had with this one.
