This game is visually stunning, with beautiful scenery, cute animals and an amazing look reminiscent of a Japanese watercolour painting. It is relaxing to play, and although there are demons and monsters to defeat, it is generally not very taxing to defeat them, the main pleasure being derived from solving puzzles along your quest. With such low levels of violence: I really can't understand why it has a 12 certificate.
My main gripe is that on first loading the game you have to sit through FORTY FIVE MINUTES of character dialogue, explaining in depth the legend behind the story. This is utterly boring and wordy, and it is a feature that unfortunatley repeats itself throughout the game. If you have played 'Animal Crossing' then you will ... Read More:

Oh man this game gives me such a buzz!! It truely is the best game I've ever played. It takes the user right into the thick of 100% pure WWII action. The music is brilliant, the levels are brilliant (with our hero negotiating some of WWII's most notorious battles - D-Day, Market Garden, Nijmegen etc.) and it just makes you wish you were there as part of it all. Some have accused this game of being too linear but the sheer excitement of the gameplay and the plots within the levels (along with the excellently designed UI) more than make up for this.
It's not hard to see why it's one of the best selling computer games of all time.
I've played it waaaaay too much!

Ico is quite simply brilliant in every possible way. If I had never played anything else on the PS2 than this I would still have been glad to have bought the machine. It is a shame that it is such a rare gem amongst all the rubbish churned out for games consoles. in fact the only thing to rival it is Shadow of the Colosuss, which is of course the follow up to Ico!

Cricket games have not really got the attention that other EA Sports games such as Tiger Woods PGA Tour or FIFA. And now with Codemasters' Brian Lara series out EA needed to make big improvements or they will not sell.
Batting is now massively improved since 05 with the new so called 'Century Stick' where you move the analog stick in the direction where you want to hit it. Sometimes it is a bit unresponsive so you may end up blocking a shot rather than hooking it for six. Also new is a timing gauge which means you need to play your shot on ideal timing or you will edge it or not hit it far. A good batsman such as Sachin Tendulkar has a large ideal timing bar and a bad one such as Glen McGrath has a small one so you can usually edge it behind. There is a difficulty ... Read More:

WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 completely blows every other wrestling game out of the water. The season mode is better, the general manager mode is better, and the graphics are the best they have ever been.
Another good thing about this game is that every superstar is on the brand they are supposed to be on (for the time being). Randy Orton is on Smackdown, and is supposed to be on Raw. Kane is on Raw, and is supposed to be on Smackdown. Oh well, they did all they could.
There is also a major glitch in this game. If you choose a tag team match, they will only say one superstar's name as you are making your way to the ring. They make so many copies of these that they were bound to mess some of them up.

I'm a big fan of the Singstar series, and was really looking forward to a Soul release of some kind. I understand that this RnB disc is the closest we'll get to it, and if so, it's fairly disappointing. Surely some more Motown / Stax funky original RnB could have been licensed? Even the more modern tracks are not that well known, and nothing like as much fun to play as the recent excellent Rock Ballads disc.
Sinatra / Deano / Andy Williams 'Swingstar' anyone?
