FIFA 09 All-Play (Wii)

When i first got this game i thought it would be quite disapointment but i was wrong the graphics look great the stadiums look realistic the only disapointment is that theres no ref on the pitch or linesmen and it doesn't have cut scenes when players get booked also little things like players like Agbonglahor, micah richards etc could have there shirts untucked as its not very realistic every player having there shirt tooked in also the premier league goalkeepers could have there real kits because i am stoke fan i was really looking forward to seeing Sorenson in his kit but was disapointed to see he wasn't just in the boring ea blue kit that every goalie wears apart from the big 4 newcastle,everton spurs etc it wouldn't harm ea to fo a few more. ...

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 09 'All-Play' (Wii)

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

August 29, 2008
This is a good attempt at a golf franchise for the Wii, but it is far from perfect. Lots of modes, and good attention to character customisation cannot save it from being a bit disappointing. It becomes clear as you progress, that EA got to the point where they felt "this'll do for now, lets get it on the shelves before we have to start work on Tiger Woods PGA tour 10". Putting is a major weak point, and the Wiimote is not sensitive enough to cope with small movements. All the putt previews and help indicators won't stop you from smacking the ball across the other side of the green, again and again.

A major flaw comes when you score a hole-in-one. Your character runs around the green celebrating like a lunatic, the crowd goes wild, a hole ... Read More:

Xbox 360 Console (60 GB Hard Drive)

I've always been a playstation fan and have religiosly shunned anything else, but the wait for PS3's to get to a decent price (not to mention the wait for a steady stream of titles to play!) means i have finally gone over to the dark side...... and it's actually pretty amazing! I never thought i would own an xbox, but now that i do i wish i'd done it sooner!

3rd generation gaming is now where it's at, i can't see my PS2 getting much use for the next 6 months! Signing up for Xbox Live just made the whole thing even better. I got my xbox with 3 games and an extra pad for £170 brand new, and it was a total no brainer. An extra £3.50 for a network lead and i was away! All i need now are some rechargeable battery packs and a quick charger and my ... Read More:

Imagine Teacher (Nintendo DS)

This is a great game, it's only my fourth DS game but it's a challenging game. I got it for my eighth birthday. I find the pottery class a bit tricky but once you get the hang of it, it's great. First you start of with only four pupils. At the end of the lesson you get to mark a pupils work.It is a fantastic game and I hope you buy it if you don't you will be missing a lot of fun.BUY THIS GAME!

FIFA 09 (PS3)

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

October 03, 2008
I have bought both games, and I have reviewed PES 2009 (look for dentistTubster). I cannot be bothered to review Fifa, but here is roughly what I think:

- There are about 3 different ways to score:
1) The through ball/lofted through ball followed by a tap of finesse shot if the keeper stays back, or a chip if he comes out.
2) The set piece option - corners, free kicks and penalties.
3) The classic PES goal - run to the byline, cut it back with the pass button and hammer it into the basically empty net whilst the keeper is still fishing about at the near post.

That is it. It is literally almost impossible to score outside the box, because you have to get the power perfect for it to go anywhere near on target, and the ... Read More:

Carnival: Fun Fair Games (Wii)

I can't believe that anyone could give this game a score over 1, it is terrible, it is basically a load of dreadful mini games which don't work properly with the wii controller, it is boring, there is no fun in this for kids or adults as the games are just hopeless. How this has managed to stay in the top 20 sellers is beyond me.

Fable II (Xbox 360)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Refinements
from: Microsoft

October 24, 2008
I should preface my review by saying that this game started out as a hell of a lot of fun and easily one of the best games I have played on the X-box....for the first 8 hours or so anyway, until it kept freezing up and wouldn't let me play. Now it's completely unplayable - it won't even install to my hard drive because the disc is unreadable. I understand that this is a pretty widespread issue and that, furthermore, Lionhead has done absolutely nothing about it. So I'm left with a 40 quid beer coaster. How disappointing. However, I went out and bought Fallout 3 instead, which is a brilliant game and comes thoroughly recommended by me.

SingStar ABBA (PS2)

So far this game has been great fun. We have played it mainly on duet mode. The song selection is great and you can choose either the short or normal length version. The short versions seem to be a bit too short but could be good if you have a queue of people waiting to play. The ratings are good especially if you achieve lead singer status! The great thing about this game is that young and old can enjoy singing together and because the older generation have a slight advantage with the lyrics! All in all good fun.
