Where the Xbox 360 went wrong
Guardian Unlimited - There are seven stages of grief: shock, denial, anger, bargaining depression, testing and acceptance. But with the Xbox 360, which has been giving a significant number of its owners grief, Microsoft last week moved directly from the first stages to

Customer Review: Annoying and lacking in the fun factor
Oh well, I really hoped this would be the 3d sonic game that recaptured the fun of the 2d originals. The graphics are no better than sonic adventure on the sega dreamcast, the camera is frustrating and the gameplay is very linear.
Customer Review: Very good game, but a few annoying things
I bought this game and was expecting awesome flowing gameplay, improved graphics and an easier way of playing from sonic adventure 2. The graphics i feel are superb for a game like this, i mean you cant make a game like this look too real otherwise it would get rid of the cartoon element of it. The gameplay overall is good, but the characters can become difficult to control at times due to the cameras movement, yes they can be rectified by the trigger buttons but they dont always help. Loading screens will annoy a lot of people on this game but you can get used to them, and the game does flow when they are not around. The levels on this game are cool, and remind me a lot of the 1st title on the dreamcast, sonic adventure, which was a great sonic game, probably the best 3d game. Sonic the hedgehog does live up to a lot of expectations for me, and i hate it when people slate a game for a few poor reasons, i would definitely recommend this title to anybody.

Kameo: Elements of Power (Xbox 360)
In a nutshell:
Playing as shape-shifter Kameo, your special skill is that once you’ve vanquished an enemy you can assume their form and use their special attacks at any time. This offers an ever-increasing arsenal of wittily designed beasts with which to complete your quest, as well as expanding varieties of combo to take on the tougher bosses.

The lowdown: Expansive action adventure with a pleasantly Zelda-esque feel about it, which features the usual set of neat little touches from developer Rare, as well as their trademark easy-to-use control interface. Despite the gradually upgradeable complexities of your various shapes’ attack and defence mechanisms this promises to be a joy to control throughout. Most exciting moment: Switching forms in the heat of battle makes for some hilarious and very effective combinations of various creatures’ skills. They also look fabulous in a comedy-monster sort of way. Since you ask: Originally slated to appear on the venerable Nintendo 64, Kameo’s development allegedly shifted first to Game Cube, then to Xbox and is finally seeing the light of day on Xbox 360. The path to gaming love never did run smooth. The bottom line: Amongst Xbox 360’s raft of shooting and driving launch titles, this is a breath of sweet, fresh air. Nick Gillett

Customer Review: Wow - seeing IS believing
Well, there are so many things that I can say about this game, the levels are amazing, the graphics beautiful, the sound is epic, the imagination and creation of the elemental sprites is mindblowing; generally some amazing creatures to play and to play against. I can’t recommend this game enough, but I hope that I (in your eyes) have tried. Get this game and you WILL NOT be dissapointed, I am on the last level at the moment and total game time elapsed (so far) is 32 hours. Even the control system is designed very well (not like Kong).
Customer Review: Four and a half stars really
I am really enjoying this game. I found it a bit tricky at first as I couldn’t remember which character was assigned to which button, but once I got past the first stage and into the game proper when you start searching for bits and pieces and can start on different tasks in different areas I was fine. The graphics are delightful and ooze quality and the camera controls some of the best I have seen in a game. I like how it saves alot automatically and that it saves every time you assign a character to a button. I think it is a clever game as it makes the player think about which character they need to assign to do certain tasks as different ones have different skills and some cannot defeat some enemies. There are a variety of different things to look out for and all sorts of items will get you all sorts of things. Look for pictures, signs, chests, plants and characters to gain items as well as buying them from shops. The graphics are the usual deep rich ones Rare are known for and I think anyone of any age group will find they have a really good game if they buy this one. I think this game is yet another one, though, that most gamers will leave on the shelf because it has cartoon style graphics. Sheer lunacy, that is. They miss some absolute pearls of games, like this one.

NBA Live 07 (Xbox 360) Customer Review: The best yet
Although Basketball is nowhere near as popular in the UK as it is in the States, this game is a must. The overall gameplay and presentation on the XBox 360 is a big step up from previous EA Sports offering on other consoles.
Graphics are superb, but HDTV (which I don’t have) must be even better. All the usual EA Sports extras are there and their presentation is first class making this game a must have.
The crowd reactions at crucial points of the game are a great touch and give the game added realism. Controls are easy to grasp and even if you are not knowledgeable on the sport its easy to get buy.
If you like sports game and have a few quid to spare then get this game. One of the best sports sims I have ever played. Only bad point is it will take you an age to get to grips with the slam dunk comp.

Crackdown (Xbox 360)
Customer Review: Crapdown? Hell no!
What can i say for this game? That it constantly surprises me at every turn? the graphics and sound are second to none? Whatever you think, these statements are true.

Though Crackdown has no paticular story, it makes up for that with intense action and non-stop thrills. The array of guns were unparalled by none. One minute you are eating a Subway sandwich in the park, and the next you are waging terrible war with bloodthirsty criminals!

To put it simply, Crackdown is simply astonishing. The freeform jumping and chasing sequences are bound to exhilerate even the most boring of people. If you are hesitating to buy this game, i order you not to, or you will never find the apparent “perfect game”

Customer Review: I like it, but it’s not quite as good as I thought it would be
As my title says, I did enjoy this game but am kinda disappointed by it. After hearing about the great reviews it got & a ex gf of mine saying it was really good I decided to buy it. So let’s move onto reviweing the different elements of the game.

Graphically, it’s a nice game with graphic novel (aka cell shaded) graphics & I like the designs for the agency pistol & assault rifle & it makes a nice change since I’m more use to Bioshock, Lost Planet, Gears Of War etc in those terms.

Gameplay wise, it is a lot like other sandbox genre games in terms of shooting but there is the ability of being able to leap great distances like The Incredible Hulk which is quite easy to get to grips with, only negative point is that being able to leap 30 feet across the city in a single bound makes simple jumps quite tricky sometimes & sometimes guns would lock onto vehicles or dead bodies which doesn’t help much.

The presentation is nice, the boxart is quite ok to look at & the manual is as another review mentions done like a hand manual which I always quite like as it makes you feel more part of the game, but this game has a big problem with involvement which I’ll get onto shortly.

Storyline, is well, about 0.01% existent. It is as simple as kill bad guys to make city safe, your agent has no story or past except that he’s there to crush gang members with guns, his foot & the odd car or so if you feel like it. So unfortunately having an instruction manual that reads like you are the agent rather than a gamer is a bit pointless in a game that doesn’t really involve you in a story.

Lifespan is short, shorter than I expected it to be. I recieved it yesterday & completed it today & I wasn’t even that good at it sometimes & spent a lot of time messing about. It didn’t help that I managed to take down one of the last generals in a space of a few minutes & killed very few guards & just knocked him over with a kick & stomped on him till he was dead like most the other ones. I would have also liked to have seen more than 3 agency weapons, I would have liked an agency sniper rifle & rocket launcher at least. Having completed it, I’ve realised how much I’ve missed games like The Darkness, Bioshock, Gears Of War & even Halo 3. Sure, I’ll play this again from time to time but it won’t be something I’ll be really playing like I would other games.

So in a nutshell, not a bad game it just is a bit disappointing & not quite as good as a filler I thought it would be, it’s gonna be a while before I fire it up again.

Viva Pinata (Xbox 360)

In a nutshell:
Ex-Nintendo developer Rare is bringing a rather different style of game to the Xbox 360 as you tend a virtual garden to attract and tame magical talking pi?atas. It may sound twee but its ability to addict is far more powerful than its cutesy graphics suggest.

The lowdown:
Unlike most first party Xbox games this is not an action game, but a gentler, more family friendly, simulation in the tradition of Animal Crossing. The basic premise is that you have a plot of land that you can turn from an overgrown mess into a beautiful garden. In so doing it will attract a range of 60 different pi?atas who, depending on how you treat them, will then decide to live there. For something as simple as a pi?ata worm you just have to have a patch of earth for them to play in but other pi?atas are a lot more demanding, while others first need to be tamed from their aggressive wild state.

Most exciting moment:
Not only can you accessorise your pi?atas with items bought from Xbox Live Marketplace but you can also swap items and pi?atas with other friends that own the game online.

Since you ask:
Viva Pi?ata has been conceived as a Pokemon style cross media franchise from the off, with all kinds of toys and merchandise already planned, as well as a new 4Kids cartoon series.

The bottom line:
At last there’s an Xbox 360 game the whole family can play and enjoy.

Customer Review: One of the best games on xbox 360
This has GOT to be one of the best games on Xbox 360. A lot of people think it’s for little kids, but it’s for everyone. I know loads of people over the age of 13 that love the game, and I do too! It’s got great graphics, and it’s the most imaginative, colourful game I’ve ever played. It doesn’t get tiresome, and theres always something to do. Collect Pinatas, unlock to shops, characters, upgrades and items, become a great gardener, collect coins and much more! When you get to level 13 ish, you start doing factory challenges as well, where the Pinata Central are relying on you to get Pinatas. If your not sure about getting this game, theres a brilliant new demo on the xbox live marketplace, it might be 1.3gb but it’s worth the wait and you can just delete it anyway. It’s also rewarding with some easy achievements, and some a bit harder. Don’t rate it till you’ve tried it, this game is one of the best out there!
Customer Review: wow!
was always interested in this game, and bought it about a week ago, and love it! at one point i spent seven hours playing, straight! easy achievements too, got 880 after a week, but can imagine it getting boring after to complete the game, but still, well worth the money!!

Customer Review: Wii Compatibility
Just so you know, you can now request an adapter free from Joytech to fix the Wii component issue. For those technically inclined, it’s actually just a resistor on the ‘Y’ signal, as the Wii provides too strong a signal for the Joytech Control Centre (and some TV’s).
Customer Review: Just what I needed
Well, all I can say in response to the people above is that it works absolutely fantastically 100% with an old fashioned non-HD TV! So if, like me, you haven’t made the jump to HD yet, and you’re not planning to just yet - this works brilliantly. I’ve got all my consoles plugged in through composite - from Megadrive to XBox 360, and they all work really well. The addition of having a network hub built in is great, and the only thing I would add as a “wish” to the product would be to have a web-server interface on it to save the complicated high-score-table-esque naming of the channels.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Xbox 360)
In a nutshell:
One of the most respected Western role-playing games of all time is back with huge improvements in graphics and accessibility, including a completely real-time combat system and the largest, most detailed game world ever seen. Phew.

The lowdown:
Although previous Elder Scrolls games have enjoyed something of a like it or loathe it reputation, this latest sequel has the means to appeal to everyone thanks to one simple improvement: its incredible new graphics. Unlike many role-playing games it is viewed from a first person perspective, with a game world portrayed in a staggering amount of detail, and realistic psychics and characters that genuinely seem to be going on about their own separate lives. The game’s real appeal though lies in the huge freedom: play it exactly how you want.

Most exciting moment:
Using the new combat engine to fight off dozens of enemies, then stealing one of their mounts and riding off into the sunset.

Since you ask:
Emperor Uriel Septim VII is voiced by Star Trek and X-Men luminary Patrick Stewart, but all the characters in the game have full spoken voiceovers instead of just onscreen text. This is the next generation, you know.

The bottom line:
One of the most realistic and accessible role-playing games ever made.

Customer Review: good good
this game is the first game i ever got for the 360 and even today it beats assassins creed and halo 3,because its endless. with this game you don’t have levels and boundarys telling you your going the wrong way,because every way is the right way.you go through the tutorial with simple enemies and understandable story line,you choose your class and when your finished you go where you want you kill,steal,hide from,whoever you want.if you dont feel like doing the main storyline,sod it become an assassin or a thief,or a gladiator.earn money to buy better weapons and armour and become solid and then do the main storyline. as for the battle system one button the block one to magic one to attack all you have to do is move and decide which way to kill them.various magic ability’s can be learned or bought,like your elements ice fire thunder and water,you can unlock doors lock pick or magic,telekinesis,breath under water summon monsters to help out against a tougher opponent. the graphics are very good capturing the environment as you roam around and the faces of different races if there expression towards you is angry or happy.swords axes bows and arrows are all detailed depending on the material,its just a shame about the blood.structures such as houses in town and farms are very good too. with a variety of everything to do its just the best game to come out for years(apart from when fable 2 comes out)for any console,so i recommend you buy this game and cherish it.
Customer Review: Prepare for your social life to end.
If you only get 5 games for Xbox 360 this has to be one of them, maybe even if you only get 1. There are massive pop-up graphical issues, but with a world so large with many different creatures and 100s of missions to do you will not be complaining. Powering up your Character is a lot of fun. Be careful when you start to choose the right creature type for you, because you can’t change that later and you’ll be playing as the same one for many hours. I would put on this game and then check my watch later and realise I’d just spent 4 hours collecting plants, mixing potions and doing a couple of side missions. Just finishing the main story line is to miss the point. Highly recommended to all and sundry.

Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged : Volume 1 (Xbox 360)
List Price: ?24.99
Amazon Price: ?17.96
Used Price: ?8.99
Customer Review: A taste of the other side
This title offers a solid preview of the other side of XBOX 360: the Live Arcade. It is evidently aimed at those who aren’t part of the XBOX Live Arcade (XBLA) online community, and provides those gamers with a taster for the kind of title offered. The pick of the bunch has to be Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved. Loosely based on the gameplay of classic Robotron: 2084 (incidentally also available on XBLA), it is a fast, engrossing and sharp game that has a real appeal to the serious gamer. Elsewhere, Texas Hold ‘Em and Hardwood Backgammon are as expected, but are reasonable nontheless; Wik: Fable of Souls is an odd one with a limited lifespan; Outpost Kaloki challenges you to build an intergalactic business in a unique way; and Bewjeweled 2 offers a similar style to Hexic (which you should all be familiar with if you’ve acquanted yourself with the Dashboard). Three demos are thrown in for even more tasters. It has to be said that almost a year on from its original release, the games featured certainly aren’t the pick of the bunch, and only Geometry Wars and Texas Hold ‘Em have stood the test of time with the online community. However, with a months free trial subscription to XBOX Live Gold (worth ?4.99), and the games valued at around ?30 if bought over the Marketplace (an online shopping site exclusive to the Dashboard), it does represent value for money. Certainly, at the moment you can buy this for as little as ?10 new, which is grand, although it is worth noting that the redeemable codes for the trial subscription will run out by the end of June 2007, so make sure you have yours by then. So, if you’re wondering what it’s like on the XBLA, then look no further then this. Just don’t be put off by the quality of games. Even though they are reasonable, the six game spectrum no longer represents what is on offer. This could be resolved by Microsoft with the anticipated Unplugged: Volume 2, which is hopefully just around the corner. With a range of new and retro titles including Street Fighter II: Hyper Fighting, Boom Boom Rocket, Alien Hominid, Worms, Pac-Man, Centipede/Millipede, Double Dragon and Lumines Live available online now (to name but a few), to really know what there is to offer you will have to just take that leap of faith. For those who don’t wish to, Microsoft needs to put out a second installment as soon as possible before this game strays too far away from its original objective: to advertise the cream of the titles on offer on XBLA.
Customer Review: Good value if you dont have the games.
It has 6 Xbox Live Arcade games plus 3 trails on disc, plus a one month XBL Gold card (which can be used to add an extra month to an existing sub) Anyway, you put the disc in your 360 like normal, but it doesnt auto load like a normal 360 game. Instead, you have to nip over to the arcade section, where it adds them to your list but with a DVD icon next to there names. When you select one it loads just like normal, with no changes from the download version. If you select play game on the main screen it just dumps you into the arcade area. Oh and yes, it doubles them up - so i have two versions of Geometry Wars listed, one with a disc icon one without, lol. When you take the disc out, they arent listed any more, but they are still llisted under games/achievements etc Loading times are petty much non-existent, apart from a brief load at the start (before the game your playings title). It saves your game fine, but for some reason it doesnt show up in the Memory section of the dash. Me thinks MS need to fix that (like they did with the Xbox content download not showing glitch) My verdict? Worth it if you have none of the games, or say max 2 and you want the others. Heck MS should give it away with new 360s, imo.

Stranglehold (Xbox 360)
Companies are always going on about the synergy between movies and video games, but all this really ever seems to mean is lots of dreadful movie tie-ins where all the money has been spent on celebrity voiceovers. Stranglehold is different though, in that it’s essentially a sequel to 1992’s classic movie Hard Boiled, made purely for video games. This time Inspector “Tequila” Yuen is unleashing his unorthodox policing methods on Russian crime bosses in both Hong Kong and Chicago. It stars the likeness of original lead Chow Yun Fat and has been developed with hands-on help from director John Woo - who it turns out does seem to know a thing or two about video games.

Of course video games have been ripping off John Woo for years, particularly his trademark slow motion shots of two-handed pistol action. As a result this initially seems dangerously similar to Max Payne et al., but the graphical power of the next generation consoles and PC ensures that this is a far more dynamic and interactive affair. Not only can you make use of a bullet time effect (call “Tequila time” here) to slow down time around you but almost all of the scenery can be used too, from sliding down banisters guns firing to scooting across the room on top of a waiter’s trolley. The damage done as you go is truly impressive, with tiles shattering off the walls, chandeliers impaling bad guys as they fall and electric wires and water mains unhinging themselves everywhere. Making a mess has never been so much fun.

Customer Review: Great game, poisoned by the storyline.
This Game is fantastic for first time players. Great visuals, a Max Payne like presence all around when you utilize some of the fantastic mouth watering special attacks. You play as well renowned actor Chow Yun Fat, and the game is intended to be a sequel to the hit movie: “Hard Boiled”. The game achieves this to some extent, as i can see the definate similarities from film to game, however the joy ends when one focuses on the storyline. The storyline suffers with its lack of depth, and its somewhat incoherent and frustrating jumps between places. The game on a whole is a joy to play, but the average gamer may feel asif the fun has ended a little too early. Another thing which brings the game off its pedestal is the Frustrating difficulty level, you could find yourself dead within seconds in some areas, or you might not die at all, it all depends on how you play the game, i decided to use the special attacks less throughout the game. The “barrage” attack can dispense bosses on even the hardest difficulty level which can be frustrating for the die hard shoot-em-up fan, because in my opinion the bosses fall short of the challenge intended. One of the special attacks i enjoyed to utilize frequently was the “Precision Aim”, where the character fires a bullet with pinpoint accuracy from a helpful zoom screen, the enemy which is struck with the bullet then reacts accordingly with where they were struck. Overall i would recommend this game to people who are looking for action over depth, Stranglehold in its entirety is a diamond in the rough, which has been let down by badly structured storylines and a disappointing ending.
Customer Review: True Woo Style gameplay - challenging but not too difficult - shame about multiplayer though
For those of you who love John Woo films and his artistic style, this game is for you. The game character Tequila is the character from the movie Hard Boiled (played by Chow Yun Fat) - a badass cop who doesn’t mind bending the rules to put bad guys away. As in the movie Hard Boiled, the action scenes are wonderfully played out with a mix of slow motion and manic gun fights or exposions. In this game Stranglehold, this is no exception. The feature of the game is that you can slow time down for a limited period of time allowing you to aim more precisely and kill more bad guys. You’ll find that you want to dive often where time is automatically slowed down (just like in Hard Boiled!!). You can also run along banisers, chairs, walls etc which is great fun and I really like being able to jump off a wall, kick it and fire my guns falling backwards and also jumping onto a trolley and killing peole as your coast along (also in Hard Boiled in the Hospital). John Woo’s trademark is the used throughout the game like the use of two pistols, Woo time (slow motion) and close encouter gunfights, and sliding across tables etc. In the extra’s, you can go to a shop with John Woo as the salesman and buy extras after earning them during gameplay. Similar to Devil May Cry for the PS2, you have Style points and combo points, so the more you kill people with style (e.g. sliding down a banister and killing guys) the more points you gain. Your points are contributed to ‘Tequila Bomb gauge’ that fills up. As you progress along the game you unlock 4 specials. When the first quarter fills, you have the option of a health boost; the second precision aim (allows a zoom in to bad guys for distance shots); the third quarter allows Tequila to fill up with bullets on whatever weapon he is holding and then blast away very, very quickly without diminishing your ammo count; the final quarter filled up allows Tequila to do a special move, spinning on the spot to kill bad guys (which is really cool to watch). As in Hard Boiled paper cranes make an appearance. You can collect these throughout the game to increase the ‘Tequila Bomb gauge’ immediately to help you get to those special moves quickly. There is a multiplayer option but so far I don’t think I’ve come across anyone on it yet. Maybe I’ll take a look on the XBOX forums to see who’s interested in some gaming. All in all a very enjoyable game. The movement for gameplay is easy to get used to and intuitive. The game is not too difficult to play but in places, hard enough to be a challenge. In addition, at any checkpoint, you can play on easy, casual and hard, so if you get stuck, just start the game again and continue the gameplay on an easier level. If you always wanted to play Tequila and kick some butt, then get this game as you’ll have a blast doing the slow motion, jumping over chairs, kicking tables etc. in true Woo style.

Customer Review: Its not easy!
This game is class, once u set it on hard (cuz easy’s ridiculus) and figure out how to dodge a missile (not luck based, there are moves that work 100% of the time) and ignore the story line (its boardering non existant). its a simulation of military fighters n that, the realism is top notch and if u can find a multiplayer game with ppl in it, ppl who are better than the NPC opponents, ur in for a great time. Its a love it/hate it game that most people with the patience to learn to ‘fly’ love, the ppl bad mouthing it probably didnt give it more than a week. get it so i can shoot u down >D !
Customer Review: What is that smell?
Had the game running for about 30 mins before I decided to turn it off. Those of you expecting an Ace Combat style flight sim will be deeply disappointed. A right stinker!

Crackdown (Xbox 360)
List Price: ?19.99
Used Price: ?9.95
Customer Review: Crapdown? Hell no!
What can i say for this game? That it constantly surprises me at every turn? the graphics and sound are second to none? Whatever you think, these statements are true. Though Crackdown has no paticular story, it makes up for that with intense action and non-stop thrills. The array of guns were unparalled by none. One minute you are eating a Subway sandwich in the park, and the next you are waging terrible war with bloodthirsty criminals! To put it simply, Crackdown is simply astonishing. The freeform jumping and chasing sequences are bound to exhilerate even the most boring of people. If you are hesitating to buy this game, i order you not to, or you will never find the apparent “perfect game”
Customer Review: I like it, but it’s not quite as good as I thought it would be
As my title says, I did enjoy this game but am kinda disappointed by it. After hearing about the great reviews it got & a ex gf of mine saying it was really good I decided to buy it. So let’s move onto reviweing the different elements of the game. Graphically, it’s a nice game with graphic novel (aka cell shaded) graphics & I like the designs for the agency pistol & assault rifle & it makes a nice change since I’m more use to Bioshock, Lost Planet, Gears Of War etc in those terms. Gameplay wise, it is a lot like other sandbox genre games in terms of shooting but there is the ability of being able to leap great distances like The Incredible Hulk which is quite easy to get to grips with, only negative point is that being able to leap 30 feet across the city in a single bound makes simple jumps quite tricky sometimes & sometimes guns would lock onto vehicles or dead bodies which doesn’t help much. The presentation is nice, the boxart is quite ok to look at & the manual is as another review mentions done like a hand manual which I always quite like as it makes you feel more part of the game, but this game has a big problem with involvement which I’ll get onto shortly. Storyline, is well, about 0.01% existent. It is as simple as kill bad guys to make city safe, your agent has no story or past except that he’s there to crush gang members with guns, his foot & the odd car or so if you feel like it. So unfortunately having an instruction manual that reads like you are the agent rather than a gamer is a bit pointless in a game that doesn’t really involve you in a story. Lifespan is short, shorter than I expected it to be. I recieved it yesterday & completed it today & I wasn’t even that good at it sometimes & spent a lot of time messing about. It didn’t help that I managed to take down one of the last generals in a space of a few minutes & killed very few guards & just knocked him over with a kick & stomped on him till he was dead like most the other ones. I would have also liked to have seen more than 3 agency weapons, I would have liked an agency sniper rifle & rocket launcher at least. Having completed it, I’ve realised how much I’ve missed games like The Darkness, Bioshock, Gears Of War & even Halo 3. Sure, I’ll play this again from time to time but it won’t be something I’ll be really playing like I would other games. So in a nutshell, not a bad game it just is a bit disappointing & not quite as good as a filler I thought it would be, it’s gonna be a while before I fire it up again.

Customer Review: The “King” of all wrestling games is here!
What a great wrestling game! Now I’m not saying its a perfect game…. it certainly has one or two stupid bugs but this game has so much to offer. Whether or not you are a wrestling fan this game has a lot to make it attractive for several weeks off hard playing. Firstly the roster of stars is great and it is a nice touch that you can “unlock” legendary stars such as Hulk Hogan, The Rock etc. Also you can create your own superstar and this is fantastic, everything from height, weight, skin tone, tattoos and much more can go into making you superstar with of course their own special set of wrestling moves. With fight experience your superstar improves and will eventually challenge for a title match! The fights themselves are very varied with at least 12 - 16 match types, wrestlers having different styles, strenghts and weaknesses. The moves will take some time to master but then this makes the game more enjoyable and challenging. The season mode is fun if limited and is a good way to get involved in the “story side” of wrestling. It is also a greta way of improving your wrestling skills. Although the story is pretty simple it is still entertaining. If you like wrestling then this game will knock you down and pin you for a three count!
Customer Review: Very good, but not perfect
This games is actually good once you get into it. I want to talk about the cons first because I consider them quite major. This game loads like a Playstation game (long), it can get annoying. More importantly though, when this game was developed, I think they forgot people might play it, who have never actually played a “Smackdown vs Raw” game before, especially since this is the first one for an Xbox branded console. So what I really found frustrating is that this game more than any other previous WWE game, was the lack of a practice and tutorial mode. A tutorial mode such as the one featured in the “WWE Day or Reckoning” games on the GameCube would have been perfect. Even the instruction book is mostly catered to those who have played a previous version. There is so much to learn, to the point where after playing one and a half way through the season mode, I am still discovering new controls, moves and tactics. While I like deciding upon my own in ring tactics, I don’t appreciate having to learn so many controls without help. If you’re a casual gamer like me, this will frustrate. I don’t think I can really put into words how much a tutorial mode was needed in this. Other than this, the problems are a bit minor. Such as: there could be more wrestlers and for some reason you can’t use WWE Legends (unlocked wrestlers, such as Bret Hart) in season mode. On the plus side some of the modes are really good, the graphics are great and it flows quite well, but leads to button bashing when your being attacked or your on the ground trying to recover. Steel Cage matches are as frustrating as in every wrestling game. Money in the bank matches (6 man ladder match) while initially quite good, turns into a real struggle and can take 30min or more for someone to win. Royal Rumble isn’t that fun, its just a survival/struggle match. And my God the referee is always in the way, can’t he stand back a bit. These are just a few matches though. It’s not clear how to win these matches at first (going back to my lack of tutorial or practice complaint). I have been playing this for over a week solid play, still enjoying it for the most part, once you have learnt it though it’s worth it. But initially its so overwhelming, having to learn the moves customizing everything from your locker room (which is cool) to options and create character mode is quite vast and can be over complicated. It’s almost impossible to review this with out writing forever. I haven’t even touched the online mode or create a belt mode for that reason and I only scraped the surface in the “create a character” mode. So is it worth it? Yes it is, right now it’s the best wresting game out there. But don’t expect an easy play, only if you are willing to give it time. For all you who know what im talking about, is it better than the legendary N64 No Mercy in terms of gameplay? erm it comes very close, but it isn’t quite as satisfying, and my God did I play that to death. This isn’t quite as balanced and doesn’t flow quite as well. It’s still more about winning than actually taking your time in ring. The presentation is flawless and watching the entrance to Bret Hart and Hulk Hogan (old school before he made himself look silly) makes you feel nostalgic about WWF in the old days when we were kids.

Customer Review: nyko fans stop working properly after a month
i bought the nyko cooler system, worked for about a month, then started making a strange noise, i felt round the back on xbox and it was nearly on fire, after that had red ring of death and freezing. ALOT of people have had problems with the nyko cooler, gonna try this cooler king out, also it doesnt use the xbox’s power like the nyko. nyko is a dream for a month, after that your back to square 1.
Customer Review: Buy this!
The NIKO is rubbish it does break the xbox 360.. It stops the xbox 360 gettting the power it needs! This dont do that. And it adds to extra fans so more air can go in and out of the xbox! I have one of these and i feel my xbox 360 is doing better than ever, i put my hand on the back and i can actually feel the air blowing my hand not boiling hot air and you think your xbox is on fire!

Steering Wheel (Xbox 360)
List Price: ?39.99
Amazon Price: ?39.99
Customer Review: Value for money… but will it last?
I got this wheel as a christmas present - 2006, and at the time i loved it! But now in late july the perfection has worn off. Please Note: The wheel has never been dropped or been near small hands! The wheel it self has gone of center slightly and the ’select’ and ’start’ button only work when the wheel is on full left lock. The left paddle shift behind the wheel always sticks when i use it, so i have to manually pull it back. Aside form these annoying faults the wheel works perfectly with all the racing games that i’ve used, unlike the microsoft wheel. These are games i’ve used it with: Test Drive - very good Dirt demo - good PGR3 - good NFS carbon - O.K When you look at a microsoft wheel, boy does it look good, the mad catz one looks very cheap, and not very well put together. 2.5 stars out of five PS DO NOT BE PUT OFF, I HAVE USED THE WHEEL QUITE ALOT AS I’M ADDICTED TO TEST DRIVE! THE FAULTS COULD BE DUE TO BEING USED ALOT!
Customer Review: Good product
My steering wheel arrived yesterday and overall im very pleased with it. The pedals feel strong and don’t feel like their going to snap like some of the old pedals used with other brands. The steering wheel itself is quite good only fault is that the steering can be a little twitchy but u soon get used to it and then it’s great.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance (Xbox 360)
In a nutshell:
X-Men Legends expands into the whole of the Marvel universe with a game featuring more heroes, villains and superhero brawls than a hundred mighty Marvel crossovers.

The lowdown:
It was hardly the deepest action role-player around, but with X-Men Legends, developer Raven found the perfect balance for most comic book fans, between simple action and an expectedly convoluted storyline featuring as many characters as possible. This is basically the same game turned up to 11, as you initially take control of Captain America, Thor, Spider-Man and Wolverine in a battle against Dr Doom and his newfound allies. The graphics are perhaps not quite as detailed as they could be but the scope of the story and the variety of the settings more than makes up for it. Considering how much the game packs in there’s few Marvel diehards that will be disappointed by this.

Most exciting moment:
Although the game works perfectly well on your own it’s really at its best when playing with friends. Depending on the system, you get both online and four-player options, with each player controlling a hero. Many of the superpowers can be combined into a single special move making team work a must (until there’s a fight over a health power-up anyway).

Since you ask:
Although all the obvious heroes are included as playable characters some of the more obscure unlockables include Black Panther, Daredevil, Nick Fury and Silver Surfer. There’s also four exclusive characters for the PSP version (including Captain Marvel and Hawkeye) and more for the Xbox 360 such as Colossus and Moon Knight.

The bottom line:
The ultimate celebration of the Marvel universe in interactive form.-HARRISON DENT

Customer Review: Great multiplayer, dull single player
What more could you want from a videogame than dozens of superheroes from the Marvel universe getting together in one game to save the world(s)?! Most of the best are here including Spiderman, Captain America, X-Men, Ironman, Fantastic 4, Thor, Ghost Rider, Silver Surfer, Blade, Elecktra and many more, but unfortunately some of my favourites such as The Punisher, Dare Devil and The Incredible Hulk are missing for some reason. That aside, it is a fantastic game where you run around literally bashing everything in sight, so it is not much of a thinking game at all. One of the best things about this game is the end of level bosses which are huge. Also, in one of the levels about halfway through there is an arcade machine section where your superhero is sucked into the cabinet and then has to play through a level of the classic 80’s game “Pitfall” to progress. On single player this game unfortunately gets very repetitive very quickly, but on multiplayer this game is great fun where between 2 and 4 players can team up and go through the main story together. As a bonus to the main story there are various comic book missions where a selected hero plays out some of their most famous stories from the comics. Overall this is a good game that is fun while it lasts but there is not really any replay value in it at all.
Customer Review: Brlliant
My son bought this game and he loves it it is great as it is four player co-op and you have a choice of over 20 characters, from people like the Thing, Wolverine, Spiderman, Ghost Rider, DareDevil and lots more. But this game is not only for boys there are also five women characters aswell so even a girl could play. This game is one of the best co-op games around and this is coming from someone who loves co-op games!!!!! THIS IS A MUST BUY!!!!

Customer Review: Truly brilliant racing game.
NFS Most Wanted is a total success, because it manages to be exciting, addictive & this 360 version looks amazing. The city of Rockport is huge & it has a gritty & grimy look that’s very realistic. The choice of cars is very extensive, & the career mode is the main part of the game where you work your way through, win races, earning money as you go & meeting new challengers in the game’s “blacklist”. I must also mention the movie scenes in between the races. These look absolutely superb & have real people in them, & not CGI characters !! Finally, the police element in the game is wonderful. It’s huge fun to have the chance to make a getaway & have several police cruisers on your tail !!! Awesome. A racing game that’s really special !!!
Customer Review: The best NFS for ages
Owning and completing this game on PS2 was a lotta fun so now owning a 360 I had to get it and play. Let me start by saying I own both Carbon and Most wanted and most wanted is a far better game in every department. For starters it the first one I can remember that actually races in the day allowing you to take in the beautiful graphics and overall design of the game. The police chases A huge huge bonus they actaully make you feel tense as your wanted level goes up as you cause more chaos whilst racing. The story is brilliant with hilarous FMV;s brilliantly cheesy and a lot of fun to watch. - Not sure if they where supposed to be comical to start with but by half they are cracking to watch. The Cars themselves are good in number and choice, with the usual upgrade options on visuals/performance etc, with special limited parts becoming available as you win races from the main characters in the game. An extra challenge series of some 50 set races allowing adds to the single player mode - but generally I would say getting all 100% will set you back 30+ hrs. This is an excellent arcade racer for a good price that has an open play style of racing and the speed/panic it brings that only a few racers could hope for and in my view is only beaten by Burnour Revenge(at current time) as being king of the arcade racers.

Skate (Xbox 360) Customer Review: Underwhelming and Counterintuitive
Everything about this game just feels a bit wrong. I bought it yesterday and am trading it in for Tony Hawk’s Proving Ground tomorrow. The way in which you have to press a button to push for speed takes so long that by the time you get to where you want to do the trick you are not going fast enough so you have to scramble to get your thumb to the ‘flickit’ control and because it is so counter-intuitive and difficult to use you fall every time and if you miss on a run to an object you have to do a massive wheel to turn around, or a powerslide which makes you lose all your momentum meaning you have to build up speed again, causing the same problem. The camera angle is horrendous pointing from some point behind your knees so you can’t see where you are going. For any fans of THPS who thought about buying this instead of Proving Ground as an alternative, don’t it’s not worth the money.
