World of Warcraft 60 Day Pre-paid Game Card (PC/Mac)

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

This product is brilliant. It allows you to play wow without the need for credit cards or debit cards. (which is a good thing as my card does not allow monthly direct debits). But even if you can use your credit/debit card, this is still a more secure and more efficient way of paying your wow fees. And also you know you can trust amazon to provide you with a 1st class service every-time.

Spore Creature Creator (Mac/PC DVD)

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

June 27, 2008
Right from the start there are significant problems using this product with several technical challenges involved in even getting the game to start properly including removing dll files from the installed game and replacing them with new ones from the spore website, never mind the infuriating habit of only adding shortuts to the Vista "game explorer" tab rather than on the desktop or in a normal menu.

Once you do get the programme to work it looks lovely however there are more challenges in store for unaware purchasers if your creature gets even slightly complex the programme hangs when you try to save it.

Looks like EA have released a barely tested excuse for a finished product, if Spore the game is this poorly executed ... Read More:

Xbox 360 Common Controller (PC/Xbox 360)

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

November 25, 2005
The truth is that I was never too big on controllers, but having got a hold of GRID and Lego Indiana Jones, I decided that needed one.

This is THE controller, if you don't already have one, or are not looking for a specialist type, I highly recommend this one!

Pro's: Great design, comfortable in the hands, new games come with in built compatibility (no need to set the keys), great for football, action, platform and driving games, very responsive, same standard as an Xbox 360 controller. No need for batteries, drivers install in a minute. Can be used as a second controller if you have an Xbox 360, the wire means that you don't accidentally turn on the Xbox when you use it.

Con's: It wasn't available a few years ... Read More:

The Sims 2: Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff (PC CD)

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

April 18, 2008
I love the Sims and play the game a lot. I was really looking forward to sprucing up my kitchens and baths with a makeover, sadly this is not what I got.

Very unimganative designs and boring sets, I was surprised it felt a lot less stuff than say the H&M fashion pack.

I wouldn't unload it from my game but I don't think I'll be so excited next time

World of Warcraft (Mac/PC)

I played this game for 2months and it really is a time waster. As you progress with them game youll find that the quests are similar to countless others, and all you are really playing for is higher levels for better stuff, and i say it is a time waster as it is addictive as you will find a need to set goals and keep playing until you achieve them, whether leveling to get a mount etc. But if you want to spend your money on a game just to spend time do it, but beware you may get addicted and your life may take a turn...

Crysis (PC DVD)

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

November 16, 2007
I played the demo when it first came out and at the time I didn't particularly have a great rig, I could only play Crysis on all low settings. At first I thought gameplay was average, I wasn't really trying the game out to see what the gameplay was like but more to do with how good my pc could run it at the time.

How the tables have turned; I recently got myself a powerful gaming rig and I decided to try the demo again and well what can I say, my system's optimal settings recommended high and it plays like a dream. Now that I own the game I have managed to tweak some settings and I have a mixture of high and very high and it runs as smooth as silk, personally I cannot enjoy a game unless the graphics are as amazing as they should be; This is important as it really ...

The Sims 2: Seasons Expansion Pack (PC DVD)

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

March 02, 2007
I love Sims, always have, and was really pleased when I found that they were incorporating weather into it at last!

Weather was initially going to be in the base game, but due to a bug Maxis had to take it out. Upon learning this I found it a little annoying that you have to pay for a feature that should have been in the game in the first place, however, once you start playing you totally get over that because of all the other brilliant features this game holds.

You (obviously) have seasons. The effects are bit draining on your PC so before buying you should definitely make sure it can handle the game, but they are worth it because they are so good, and nicely realistic.

You also have season-appropriate activities, such as fishing, gardening, making snowmen, ... Read More:
