PSP Slim and Lite (Black)

from: Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE)

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

Go to electronicgifts.co.cc and sign up. Complete ONE offer - I would recommend Gala Bingo (you know, the one Sharon Osborne advertises 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 SatNav, Wii, PS3, iPod Touch 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 Newsnight programme a while back.

Many items to choose ... Read More:

God of War: Chains of Olympus (PSP)

from: Sony

March 28, 2008
This is the thing I bought this game via the previous one and the storyline is so boring and is utter rubbish and I completed the entire game within 12 HOURS thats right. It's so short and easy, it's amazing to play don't get me wrong but it's not worth paying for it if your getting a couple hours of exitment. The graphics are average and you get new abilites and one new weapon - Slow but Powerful - The only troubling thing was the Underworld when you have to jump over the massive gaps and you keep dying so Hint* Go well far baack and sprint to the point where you jump ( It took me 2 hours to get past one part ) and the boss is so easy and again the ending of the storyline is terrible

Final Fantasy I (PSP)

from: Square Enix

February 08, 2008
This is actually the 9th final fantasy game I have played. Funny that I have been very backward about Final fantasy but I am in the UK and the first FF game was the absolute classic 7th.

Anyway, this is nothing like other final fantasy games that have fixed characters and extremely long storyline. This game is a bit like Might and Magic that you need to decide your own jobs and character but the stats are fixed though.

One of the bad points about FF games is that they usually have no replay value. Not the version instalment. You can try different combination of the jobs and create your different parties.

Supporting magic is more helpful than later ff games because in later games, your character can be trained ... Read More:

"Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII" Signature Series Guide (Bradygames Signature Series)

by: BradyGAMES

June 16, 2008
This is a good walkthrough with plenty of good advice and help, but some of that advice is difficult to actually implement.
The biggest example that i can thank of is it recomends costly punch, a very powerful attack materia that doesn't use AP.
The problem is that after an excess of 70 hour play time and a 95% mission completion rate, i have not unlocked this materia, and according to the guide, i'm not quite there yet, as i need to complete 5 more (very hard) missions that, according to the guide i need costly punch for. (i find goblin punch works instead)

The up side is that the maps are accurate, as i have come to expect from brady games guides. The bestiary is good, as The game uses monsters that look the same, but aren't quite. ... Read More:

Final Fantasy II (PSP)

from: Square Enix

February 08, 2008
This is a ff game more like a ff game. You should finish the game in 20 hours but if you power levelling and boosting stats, it can take 30 hours (Don't do it. Game becomes ridiculously easy if you do that).

Just for reference. Your stats by the end of the game for the main character should have HP around 2500 and MP 400. I got to 9000 and 800 in the end, final boss was like a joke to me.

There are new dungeons as well and puzzles are not as good as ff1's but it is still not bad. Like later ff games, it does not have much replay value because everything is almost the same but still if you decide to replay, you can try to develop characters into different jobs, just they don't have any titles for them.

You might be able ... Read More:

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3)

from: Konami

June 12, 2008
This could very well be the best video game ever made. Never before has a game shown so much character development and such a great job of storytelling - yes, it's linear, and yes it does use a lot of cut-scenes; and simply, that's why it's so darn good. The gameplay is solid but the cut-scenes make this title something far more than a game.

Hideo Kojima is the only one who truly gets it. He's the Spielberg of video-games.

I was blown away. You owe it to yourself to buy this game.

Fable II (Xbox 360)

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.

now although i admit the film is confusing if you haven't played the game it's still a great film i watched it and i hadn't played the game and i pieced together most of it aprt from the characters my advice if you haven't played the game is to ignore the plot and focus on the action aside from that it's a complex intelligent beautiful action filled film i advise to watch

I loved this game (the reason to get a PSP), but remember to avoid the + version, which is lower in quality compared to this.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)

from: Nintendo

June 27, 2008
Super Smash Bros Brawl is a amazing game but there are some things that you should know before purchasing. This is not a normal combat game (Your heath does not go down it goes up, the higher Percentage the further you fly when hit.)
There is one thing that i think nintendo could do better.
Because what is the point of bringing out a new console with special features and not use them in one very good game
That does not change that it is a great game though.
