Purely and simply... addictive. There is so much to do here, Ive had this game for months and it still holds up, I will never sell it. If you want a classic game revamped to make more fun, stylish and more value for money its an essential. God, I love my ds.

Shaun White Snowboarding Road Trip -Wii Fit Compatible (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Ubisoft

November 14, 2008
This game is fabulous fun and far better than I'd expected. Yes it does slot in-between SSX Tricky and an arcade style, but that's a strength not a weakness. I was impressed by the board's variable sensitivity levels after the 'lumpy' feel of the Wii Fit Snowboarding mini-game. This is much better and can be changed between every run if you choose to. There isn't any upperbody control with the wii-mote (the video adverts were rather misleading there) but it's still a lot of work as you move about. The gameplay is immersive enough that you'll actually jump up off board at some point. The game doesn't like this and pauses briefly to give you a row for being naughty for jumping on the balance board. No game play lost though.

Resistance 2 (PS3)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Sony

November 28, 2008
The original was a crushingly average launch title, so little was expected from the seemingly rushed follow up. Yet Resistance 2 is superb, and one of the best shooters of 2008.

The opening begins fairly sombre, with protagonist Nathan Hale picked up by a mysterious squad, who intend to run tests on the virus he is infected with. Before they get chance, their craft is shot down by a Goliath. The opening level is a glorified training section, but theres a huge sense of urgency as this Chimeran vehicle towers overhead. The linearity is also well disguised, creating the illusion of open spaces well.
From this opening section onwards, Resistance 2 is a massive graphical achievement. The traditional greys and browns no longer dominate; ... Read More:

Christmas is coming so save your cash! Why purchase something you can get for £5.

Go to electronicgifts.co.cc and sign up. Complete ONE offer - I would recommend Gala Bingo (you know, the one for on tv),as this is cheap and fun (and you might win some money in the process!)

If you really don't want to spend, there is a free Lovefilm trial.

All companies are well known so there is no risk involved- give it a go! I got my Ipod, consoles and many other things this way, so don't miss out.

I was a sceptic once but now I am SO glad I gave it a chance. B8C approved this system on their a while back.

Many different ipods to choose from and they send your gift for Free.

Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party - Wii Fit Compatible (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Ubisoft

November 14, 2008
I never bought the first game in the series but loved Raymans Raving Rabbids 2. TV party is even more wacky, crazy, and fun than the previous and makes excellent use of the balance board. Although you can use the game without the balance board I would highly recommend it as it really does enhance game play and add a whole new dimension to the mini games.

There is a wide range of games to complete, some based on actual films or TV programmes adding extra value and banter to them. Others are similar to the songs in previous games or add the use of the balance board too so you can dance in time to the music.

This is by far the most exciting and fun game out on the wii. Anyone who loves fun multiplayer and party games will adore this ... Read More:

Big Brain Academy (Wii)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Nintendo

July 20, 2007
It's a no-brainer to not buy this fabulous Brain game. This is actually published and partially developed by Nintendo themselves, just like the acclaimed Brain, Maths and Sight Training games on DS and the earlier Big Brain Academy game, also on DS.

Lose yourself in a fun, party adventure, where the teacher is unusually fun and the Wii Remote talks to you, encouraging you.
This is a must have title, like everything Nintendo publish...

World of Warcraft: The Wrath of the Lich King Expansion Pack (PC/Mac)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games

November 13, 2008
"Zranta stepped forward, her feet making a satisfying crunching on the sparkling snow covered land. It was a rare occasion to see one of the Forsaken smile, well with Zranta her smile was more of a smirking and wicked grin. One which exposed her rotten teeth and flesh, to some not a pretty sight. The grin not just from the sound and the chilling feeling of the snow beneath her, her grin was more for the things to come. The Lich King, Arthus, to whom Zranta would thank but then bring to his knees in the name of Lady Sylvanas, it was the time for redemption." Epilogue from Corrupted Shadows(Jase Howse 2008), it mirrors the smile i had when i hit the Play button knowing that at last i could move beyond level 70.

High School Musical 3: Senior Year DANCE! (Wii)

from: Disney Interactive

Like the review above by Jazzy Jazz it is a good game if you like HSM.
Unlike Jazzy Jazz I am not a salesman therefore I can inform people first hand that you will not like this if you want to do proper Karaoke etc.
The songs seem tinny and the tutorials are americanised they seem to cater for the above 12's so anyone younger may need adult assistance.
Overall it's ok but there are better games of this genre out there.
Still it's HSM so will sell just for the name.

Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC and Video Games
from: Rockstar

April 29, 2008
This game is so close to perfect that you might be able to ignore its few tiny flaws (the gun cover system, graphics up-close) and call it perfect anyway! This is simply the most engaging, fun, beautiful and sublime game I have ever played! The main story alone can take between 30-40 hours to complete if you really invest in it. After that you can spend hours exploring the huge city. Not to mention the online multiplayer. Everyone simply has to play this game!!
