Jet Set Radio

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Dreamcast
from: Sega

November 24, 2000
Jet set radio oozes style, from the first moment you load the game up you will notes the games unique cell shaded look (jet set radio was the first game to use cell shaded graphics, of course it has been copied many times in games such as Zelda and viewtiful Joe) the game looks just like a cartoon and the cartoon look fits the game so well.

The whole idea of jet set radio is to skate around a area tagging walls sounds easy right? Well Sega have chucked in a load of police that really don’t like taggers. The first levels will start off easy you can easily out run the police as they are on foot but soon they will start sending in helicopters, dog’s, tanks and hit squads and you will have to plan how you are going to get ...

Virtua Athlete

Although a lot of people dislike Virtua Athlete, I think the game is quitte good if you expect an arcade style sports. The game play is easy and the multi-player option is big fun. Don't expect a really big and long sports game made for a console, but just a straight arcade game. If you like arcade style sports you will love Virtua Athlete, but if you want a much deeper game with lots of options then go for Sydney 2000 or Int. Track & Field.

Confidential Mission (Dreamcast)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Dreamcast
from: Sega

May 25, 2001
Almost definitely the best game out for the Dreamcast at the moment. If you like the slickness and superb playability of games such as Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, 18 Wheeler, and Daytona, then don't hesitate to add this to your shopping basket. I just can't put this game down.

Yeah, so you've got to buy a light gun, big deal. With a game like House of the Dead 2 also available it's a definite must have for all arcade action freaks.

The missions are tough with plenty of variety plus some hidden extras. Ever wanted to be James Bond? Believe me, this is as close as it can get. (Make sure when you get the automatic Assault Rifle, you fire it sideways Miami Vice style for ultimate immersion!!) Training mode will have you cursing ... Read More:

Worldwide Soccer 2000 Euro Edition

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Dreamcast
from: Sega


I bought this after being kept resonably entertained by Uefa Striker. I liked the player edit option in US, something that should be in all football games. I grew tired of the gameplay though as it seemed a bit ropey and became annoying. So i had a look at SWS Euro Edition. I must say it's not a ground breaking football game, it has its share of problems but has some redeeming features also that make it quite playable.
It is better than Uefa, it has better gameplay and certainly better commentary. Indeed the commentary i thought was pretty good. Provided by Peter Brackley, it flows quite well and is rarely out of touch with events on screen.
One of the main drawback is the long loading times. You literally have to wait minutes at a time between ... Read More:

Extreme Sports

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Dreamcast
from: Sega

October 20, 2000
I bought this game just to see what could be done with these so-called "extreme" sports in a videogame & have been very pleasantly surprised...the game is great fun & entirely addictive, the difficulty level being set just about right.

First off, the graphics: there are occasional signs of pop-up & slowdown, but these are more than offset by the enormous terrains, well-modelled characters &, best of all, some very impressive lighting effects - as you come to the brow of a hill, the sun almosts blinds you...brilliant! It all shows that the much-maligned Dreamcast can still easily hold its own with so-called "superior" next generation consoles.

The music is entirely appropriate for each sport, & the ... Read More:
