Cars: Mater-National (PS3)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Other Platforms
from: THQ

November 30, 2007
After the great success of 'Disney Pixar Cars' game last year, comes a sequel for next gen consoles.

What's great about that is it takes (almost) full advantage to the PS3 capabilities letting the player explore Radiator Springs & 2 other locations; Ornament Valley & Tailfin Pass. Now the reason why I said "almost" is the 3 locations are some what short, it'll probably take less than 20mins to explore the whole area (of 1 location). But still, if you seen the film 'Cars', it plays closely to the layouts of the little town, so in other words, you've already familiar with the place.

The graphics are stunning, everything is like the real world (surroundings and environments) yet kept the magical Pixar quality ... Read More:

Star Wars Episode I: Jedi Power Battles (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Other Platforms
from: Lucas Arts


I suppose I wanted to love this game right from the start, so I deliberately tried to turn a blind eye to its faults (of which there are many) and focus on the good bits. The good: it's Star Wars on a console and, at the time, there was not a massive choice of decent Star Wars games for those of us without a PC. As a Star Wars game, the sound effects are superb - lightsabers whirl, blasters fire and John Williams' soundtrack plays lusciously throughout. It follows the events of 'The Phantom Menace' with a little creative license and is suitably maddening to keep you either coming back for one more go or looking for a somewhere to bury the game in the garden! And now the bad: I had to look for hints and tips on the web to help me get through ... Read More:

The Movies (Mac/DVD)

from: Feral Interactive

October 26, 2006
If you ever dreamed of opening your own film studio, this is where to practice. The Movies is the best Hollywood-sim available. It is packed with features, that will help you manage your studio, from the layout of the lot and the shaping of your new stars to the actual moviemaking.

Actually The Movies is two games in one: One about managing a movie studio, just like various Tycoon- and Sim-titles. And one about creating real movies. With its very extensive features for real moviemaking, where you write, direct and produce movies inside the game - and decides everything from backdrop to credits, you can really make movies. Luckily you don't have to. You can perfectly well choose to play the sim game, without sinking down in time consuming real ... Read More:

Dancing Stage Euromix - Platinum (PS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Other Platforms
from: Konami

November 16, 2001
This is a great game with a workout mode that lets you burn lots of calories, listen and dance at the same time as having fun! It has four differant levels to each song (the basic "beginner", "standard" and "difficult" with an extra one thrown in for "experts". As you work through the levels you will be introduced to new charactures who will dance along in front of phycadellic backgrounds! There are also loads of songs to chose from, ranging from very slow to VERY FAST!
BUT...The only problem is that this is a wonderful game for beginners, if you are like me, you will want more. I have heard of games that let you make your own sequences up and have arrows that dissapear, when i found out that my game had very few of those features, i was a little depressed.

The Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask (N64)

November 17, 2000
Having got bored of my PS2 in late 2006, I Decided that I really wanted to play some good games again, so I went out and bought an N64, having had great experiences with other peoples' in the past.
Amongst other things, I hacked, slashed and pondered my way through Ocarina of Time and realised exactly why people thought it was the best game ever. I kept reading about 'Majora's Mask' on the internet, so I decided to check it out.
There's a sequel?
Why was I not informed!
I began nagging my mum and it was about a month before I persuaded her to buy me this game off eBay.
So, on to the game itself.
The main thing that I think makes this game better than Ocarina of Time is that it is so much harder. A combination of any-time saving and ... Read More:

Pokémon Trading Card Game (GBC)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Other Platforms
from: Nintendo


Pokemon Trading Card game is good fun and quite a well-thought-out game. Once you get the hang of it it's actually great fun.

However, there are a few bad things about it.
The graphics are not very good even though it is only a GameBoy Color game and the gameplay is overall rather luck-based rather than skill.

Other than this, a great game with at least 50 hours of game-time.

Zoo Vet (PC)

Zoo Vet is a game where you treat sick animals from penguins to elephants. All sort of animals you'd find in the wild, I suppose.
Firstly you meet three (I think) vets who are realy scary! I do not like the men or the woman, but anyway, they help you through your jobs of looking after the animal. You get a sort of tuturial at first where you treat a bear or something and they tell you what to do!
I've got lots of tropheys in the cabinet, you get them if you sucessfully treat an animal. If you want to treat an animal you go to your map in YOUR office, you can choose what office you want, and the animal or animals that need treated are flashing on the map. It is quite fun, but you have to be careful you don't harm the animals or the scary vet will scare you! Over the game ... Read More:
