Call of Duty: World at War (PS3)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Promotion Tree
from: Activision

November 14, 2008
Next to the wonderful graphics, the game was lots of fun, except for the very unpleasant flamethrower scenes, right until I upped it to the max level. Let me explain.
Single Player, I am part of a small Russian squad trying to flush the Germans out of the Seelow Heights, a hilly and forested landscape.
My team mates all stand more or less out in the open, several are far ahead of me, and most are shooting at ...something. Whenever I try to sneak the tiniest bit closer, or stand upright, all hell breaks loose. And I am dead in two seconds. Whereas my team mates continue to stand way ahead, only half concealed, unhurt, as if invisible. If I somehow manage to wriggle closer on my belly, I am being chased around by hand grenades thrown by German ... Read More:

Football Manager 2009 (PC)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Promotion Tree
from: Sega

November 14, 2008
I am a huge football manager franchise fan and thought I would treat myself today so popped into WHS - what a MISTAKE I made!!!

I have just read the other reviews and agree with all the 1 stars - it took me four hours to get it loaded (the phone activation is an absolute joke by the way) and to my horror the game was slow (on a brand new sony laptop) and everytime I typed in a players name the letters came up twice!!

The game will be going back tomorrow as I can't be bothered downloading all the patches needed just in the first month of release.

I agree with a previous poster - AMAZON SHOULD WITHDRAW THIS GAME FROM SALE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE - the fact that a product has so many errors indicates that it is probably in ... Read More:

I have read the other reviews on here and note the points made but i have got to say are you taking it to seriously? My family have had this game two weeks now and we are still playing it. So, why have i given it five stars? Its the simplicity and ease of the game for everyone that makes it so enjoyable. No one has any musical talent in our family (No one can read music or play an instrument!)however, that does not matter. The game talks you through everything with a nice and easy tutorial that gives you the basics of a song and what goes into it, such as the bass, the melody, percussion and so on. Once you have learnt these basics you can put them together in jam sessions using yourself for every part of the band! How good is that. You can even decide what ... Read More:

More Brain Training (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Promotion Tree
from: Nintendo

I bought this prior to a family holiday to France. Not having any previous experience of Brain Training, I decided to go for this version rather than the original after reading other reviews, and what a joy it was. I kept the game hidden until we boarded the ferry. When I got it out, I was expecting cries of 'oh no! Not brain training - why did you get that mum??' BUT instead all were delighted, and the whole family, young and old, played it every single day of our trip, and indeed fighted over who's turn it was. I highly recommend this game if you are planning a long journey, or just want to provide your family with some educational entainment that everyone can enjoy that doesnt involve the telly.

Dr Kawashima's Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain? (Nintendo DS)

I've had this game a few weeks now and have improved a lot.

I have always been rubbish with numbers and this has helped immensely.
My reading hasn't really improved though :( Not that it's that bad...

I'm not sure if the training has rubbed off into the real world yet, but at least I can see improvements by doing the daily training.

It has a good range of daily training tests you can perform and the more days you train mean the more tests you can choose from. Also the better you get it adds a harder level to some of the tests.

I don't use the voice recognition tests anymore as for me it does not recognise when I say black most of the time.

And with the dreaded word memory test it does not recognise a ... Read More:

FIFA 09 (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Promotion Tree
from: Electronic Arts

October 03, 2008
I have been alternating between PES and Fifa since PES was ISS back in the late 90's. There has been a lot of difference and similarities in these games over the years, that many have produced a schematic view that PES was better gameplay and FIFA had the nice graphics and official statistics.

To be honest the last few years have seen quite the turnaround. Since I obtained a 360 I was RIDICULOUSLY addicted to Pro 6 in which the online experience and gameplay were complimented by nice graphics and only flaws were idiotic reviewers saying that "Martin Tyler said the goal went in 3 seconds after it went in instead of 1.7 seconds."

So as you can see I was rather skeptical when my brother brought home FIFA 08, let alone when I bought FIFA 09. The gameplay was a ... Read More:
