LMA Manager 2006 (Xbox)

from: Codemasters Limited

November 18, 2005
I love this game because i can sit and play on it four hours , the transfer market has improved , the matchday has improved but i think the traing has got worse because on 2005 all my players went up in value and ability but on this one they go down in value and ability and because of this the game is really fustrating because you buy a player for 10 million and by the end of the season their worth 5.5 million and have become the worst player in your team

TOCA Race Driver 2 (PC DVD)

from: Codemasters Limited

April 23, 2004
This game could have been great, it has excellent graphics and often the gameplay is absorbing and rewarding, but it is unfortunately let down by inconsistent and often frustrating car handling, and unfair opposition race ability.
On some races it can take a lot of luck and every ounce of skill to beat the opposition (or at least finish high enough to progress) and then the next 3 or 4 races can all be won without much difficulty at all.
It can get so frustrating when playing fair (and getting beat) that you can't help but try and cheat, crashing into the opposition at a hairpins or tight bends and hoping that you come out in front. The opposition seem to be able to take some corners much faster then you and if you try to copy them you ... Read More:

Colin McRae Rally 2005 (PC DVD)

from: Codemasters Limited

October 21, 2005
Glad I only spent £[...] on this game. Richard Burns beats this game hands-down. Before, I had Colin McRae 3 and thought that was good until I tried driving Richard Burns. Richard Burns' game is far more realistic and had to relearn how to control a car properly.

MTV Music Generator 3 (Xbox)

from: Codemasters Limited

June 18, 2004
Take a break from those cookie-cutter fantasy games where your spell-casting hero travels through strange lands to defeat the evil king. With the third installment in the popular MTV Music Generator music-making series, PS2 and Xbox owners can swap their magic for a mixer and turn their game console into a recording studio. This Is the Remix lets budding producers and DJs create and edit original music tracks pooled from more than 4,000 samples stored on the DVD, as well as remix 10 current hip-hop, reggae, electronica, house and rap songs. Highlights include OutKast's The Way You Move, Snoop Dogg's From Tha Chuuuch to da Palace (it's so shizlicious) and Sean Paul's Get Busy.

Users start with the song's radio edit, extended mix, instrumental or a cappella track. ... Read More:

Worms 4: Mayhem (Xbox)

from: Codemasters Limited

July 29, 2005
Last year's Worms 3D didn't have invertable analog controls. It was an irritation, and an oversight.Team17 announced in their forum that this was being addressed in Worms 4 Mayhem.And sure enough, it was. You can control the first-person Y-axis, the third person Y-axis, and the third person X-axis. And the game plays and controls like a dream.Until you get on Live and try to play online. You get a non-inverted Y-axis in first-person, an inverted Y-axis in third person, and an inverted X-axis in third person, regardless of how you configured the game. It really stinks to go and play online and the view is constantly going off in strange directions that almost everybody finds non-intuitive due to the very strange control choices. It makes the game control differently than how ... Read More:

Heroes of the Pacific (PC CD)

from: Codemasters Limited

September 23, 2005
Hours of fun to be had with this game. HOP is arcade style and messing about with payloads and fuel is not part of the fun. A mission is presented to you which may involve attacking Guadacanal, recon on a shipping fleet in the pacific, protecting your own aircraft carriers or engaging in a huge dogfight etc (Or even all of the previous).

The game is well presented and visually pleasing. The missions are varied and can take some time to master. The flight controls are responsive (using a joystick)and each plane handles differently. One tip is that the rudder control only works at a certain speed. You'll soon master that. There are four classes of plane, fighters, dive bombers, torpedo bombers and the heavy duty bombers. Within the four classes there are many ... Read More:

Heroes of the Pacific (Xbox)

from: Codemasters Limited

September 23, 2005
For a confirmed aviation enthusiast like myself, this game pushes all the right buttons. The aicraft are on the whole very accurate as are the locations for the various missions. Also, the way the game rewards you for completing missions by either granting new planes or upgrade points to enhance your exisiting aircraft means that there is an even greater incentive to crack a difficult mission (I was well chuffed with my P-61!). The game also offers a choice of controls, either Pro which uses a set up for dedicated flight sim fans (which I found very difficult to master) or Arcade which is much easier to master. The battle scenes are awesome, with the number of aircraft involved being breathtaking (imagine the space battles in Stars Wars III to get some idea). The only reason it isn't ... Read More:

Lucinda Green's Equestrian Challenge (PC)

from: Codemasters Limited

April 05, 2007
I haven't ridden a horse in my life, but as my girlfriend is quite capable and I like gaming, I bought this despite the earlier review. It's true that the dressage part is nothing like riding a horse. Tapping the arrow keys in a karaoke manner I suppose is a reflection though of the rhythm and timing you need to become an Anky van Grunsven though. As your horse progresses, it gets easier. The showjumping in contrast is quite realistic, as is the crosscountry - my favourite part. However, just being able to compete in four events, each at 2 to 4 star level, gets a bit boring after a while. It's nice to ride Kentucky, Adelaide, Burghley and Badminton in a very realistic environment (the graphics are great), but expansion packs would've been nice (I'd love to have a go at Bramham). Also, the ... Read More:

The game is defunct, you can't get past the patcher, there is no website, it has officially shut down. Wish I knew before I bought it but hey, such is life.
