REVIEW
ok but not great They lead you to beleive that this game is a combination of boardwalk games (wack a mole..toss a ball) and "rides" you can go on. There are five "themes" to the park.you play games (at each theme..one is always free) you do well enough and you are awarded tickets to play at other games. the goal is to "Purchase" all the toys at the themes vender unlocking the "Ride" which turns into yet another competition game. Like I said, its ok. but not great.
Leafgreen Summary I think that overall Leafgreen is a lot of fun. The reason I gave it a three star for fun rating is because it is too repetitive, and once you memorize it, you can't continue on to different parts.
As you may have guessed if you have played Pokemon before, you go on an adventure and end up being the most powerful trainer in the world of Pokemon. You catch and train Pokemon by catching them in Poke balls. The highest level you can get to is 100, and you can also gain items to help heal your pokemon, or give them power boosts.
I would reccomend this over FireRed because it has more exclusives, and is easier to win in the game corner. If you are a beginner, I would reccomend Ruby/Sapphire over this. I would reccomend this over the orignal RBY because it is improved, and has better graphics.
Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers brings together all 21 Guilty Gear characters, for dual-screen combat action. You can also go wild with four-player combat through a WiFi connection, as you battle friends and CPU-controlled characters. Master 10 minigames like Billiards, Arm-Wrestling and Sword Practice to unlock more Robo-Ky moves Special moves like Psych Burst, Dust Attack and Roman Cancel all return in Guilty Gear Dust Strikers

This game is crunk all 5 r belong to this w00t w00t!!! this game is total pwnage!!!!!! its so l33t graphics are good and there si no slowdown!!!! Plus the rpg style story is awesome!!!!He sound has band like queens, acdc, elton jon (jk but that would rock) and mangreat bands!!!!1 controls are tight!!! Thegames are really sweet only a couple are stupid!!! i bought me 5 times because if i lose it i still want to play it!!! The story mode which is like Mortal KOmbat deception but it has a slick rpg element to it!! Also it doesnt have that dumb training part.actully all this is a lie im getting this game in a couple of days.....or am i???????????
Fire Red's a remake, but it also has other surprises... Although Fire Red is based off of the original Red Version on the original gameboy, the game makers also added a few extra surprises, like the islands. One island and 2 island, ect. was never on the originals. And besides, the graphics are WAY better than the regular Advance ones, and could qualify for the DS graphics.
Although you can't get a Mach or Acro bike, you can also get the added feature of the running shoes, that are about the same speed of the regular bike in the game.
If you enjoyed playing the original game, then I highly reccomend to get this game (Also because it includes the wireless adapter). You can play head-on with your friends 10 feet apart. Or you can chat in the Union Room, although I don't see the point when you're only 10feet away...
But overall, I think this is a pretty good game. The only reason why I rated it 4 stars is because it is about the same story base off of the original Red, Blue, and Yellow versions. My actual rating is 4.6 stars, but the rating box wouldn't let me select that. My score for enjoyment is 5 stars out of 5, and I guarantee that you will enjoy this game.
The Left Brain Right Brain game series is designed to equally train your weak and dominant hands via logic-based mini-games that require you to rotate the DS in book style play. In Left Brain Right Brain 2, you use the Touch Screen in 20 new games based on speed, accuracy, association, recognition, memory and strategy. Games like Balloon Attack, Block Buster, Cosmic Seesaw and Space Escape, among others, strengthen the left and right hemispheres of the brain by making you switch hands throughout play. Afterwards, you can monitor personal progress and assess improvement by reviewing development percentages for each hand. You can also tailor your favorite mental-training routine in the new Exercises mode, while testing 'good' and 'weak' hands via three random games in Ambidexterity Check. Finally, you can compete with a friend in both single and multi-card multiplayer mode to prove who has the mental skills to be truly ambidextrous.

REVIEW
What a Brilliant Idea! We picked up this video collection this afternoon just because it's we have kids, we already have gameboys, and we have times when we just need to keep them amused in the car and don't want to shell out $500 for an in-the-car DVD player.
4 Episodes of one of our son's favorite shows on one GBA cassette! Brilliant! No need to buy that other proprietary black and white player - we already own the equipment. Plus this is in color! The quality of the video is actually slightly better than what I'd expected, as I wasn't setting the bar very high. I haven't compared the GBA version with the tv version to see if they've cut out any of the image at all, but frankly, even if they did, my son wouldn't have noticed.
I plan to pick up a couple of others closer to the fall when we have a plane ride ahead of us. I'd have gladly paid twice what this costs.
Blast Works is a side-scrolling shooter that lets players craft the game to their liking by building their own levels, ships and enemy ships. In addition, players can "absorb" the pieces and weapons of destroyed enemy ships to bolster their own defenses during battle. Across more than 15 different land, air and sea missions, the goal of Blast Works is to destroy enemy ships while continually growing your own into a massive craft by absorbing their fragments. The larger a "fused ship" is, the easier it is to protect from the growing onslaught of enemy firepower. Players can also upgradetheir ship in the Hangar by customising weapons, propulsion systems and armour. The game's 2-player cooperative mode lets players work together to blast enemies, fuse debris to grow their ships and finish the mission as a team. Finally, creative types will enjoy building a ship from scratch with the Ship Editor and then testing it out in combat on a custom level they've built with the Level Editor. With the multiple editing and customization options, you'll never play the same game twice! ESRB Rated RP for Rating Pending
REVIEW
If It Ain't Broke... Don't Fix It Blast Works is a game that, well, works. It's got high intense action like the arcade games of the 80's with a few extra twists thrown in there for good measure. It's a game that's simple to pick up and play but it actually manages to be challenging enough as well. The simplicity itself is probably why it's so good.
There's no real story to Blast Works but the concept is good. Take a simple arcade stylized game and vamp it up. You fly from one end of the level to the other, blowing up all the enemies that get in your way. Enemy ships usually clutter the screen, firing at you from almost everywhere. Precise movements are a must. As you destroy enemy ships, though, you can collect debris and fallen enemies to add to your ship. To the point where it takes up the whole screen. It can feel extremely cramped as a result, but you canretract it whenever you need to. Enemies can also destroy whatever it is you've collected and attached to your ship.
As you can imagine, the game isn't exactly long. It's very short as a matter of fact. That can make its price a little hard to swallow. However, you can create your own levels, enemies and even upload them online and share them. This means, of course, you can also download other creations.
Like many Wii games, Blast Works graphics are good because of the style more so than being cutting edge technology. The polygons help to bring out the best in the games style. And despite how much clutter gets on screen it almost never slows down. It's certainly not cutting edge technology and you can even find several Wii games that look better, but at the very least it doesn't look generic. The style is actually quite pleasing and attractive. It's another Wii game that shows that style is just as important as looking good. And Blast Works definitely has style and it's style definitely makes it look good.
Blast Works old school charm and simple gameplay make it a good game. However, another thing that helps it out is that it's actually reasonably challenging. There will be some gamers who will have a reasonably easy time getting through the game, but on the higher difficulty levels, even some of the most experienced gamers might have some trouble. It may be short but there's a lot of replay here as well.
Blast Works is simple and fun. If you've got a Wii and are looking for some rather addictive action, then Blast Works is the perfect game.

REVIEW
Save your money, a real disappointment Jillian Michaels Fitness Ultimatum 2009
What a disappointing bummer. Don't buy it.
I ordered the product pre-release, and finally opened and used it yesterday after pigging out on Thanksgiving and the day after.
Pros: (There are a few good things. Ummm...)
+ It has graphs to chart your progress
+ Jillian cheers you on
+ The "tips" can be helpful. I've heard "remember to breathe" before, but not when to inhale/exhale.
+ The only "game" that seemed to mimic what I'd expect in doing for real was the up and down movement for the rail car.
Cons:
- Slow response time
- The game doesn't react to motions correctly, e.g. when throwing a paint bomb the instructions indicate you should extend your arms, I assumed you'd throw much like you'd throw a baseball. Nope, it doesn't register. I had the best luck when I picked up the paint ball and just quickly shoved it towards the TV set.
- You jog before/after every exercise. And no mater how fast I jogged, mostly the game reacted to my exaggerated arm movements.
- I finally was able to jump from log to log, again, it took exaggerated arm movements.
- It told me to try harder, because it didn't register the movements (very irritating).
- At the same point in every run, I'd get the same little great job, almost done spiel.
My tips:
1. Use two controllers instead of a controller and a nunchuk (spelling?) so your arm movements aren't limited by the tether.
2. Save your money and buy something else.
BlowOut: Military Fighting Unit is a completely new world of side-scrolling action where the only rule that counts is "kill or be killed"!
REVIEW
Great game for the money Over 12 Hrs of Gameplay for $15...how can you beat that!! I found Blowout to be a great chance to go back to the days of no nonsense, no story, just kill everything games that we grew up with. The company that made it is the same ones that did BloodRayne and Roadkill and it really shows that they have some talent. I also wanted to mention that my Blowout box has a TEEN rating not mature as it says on this site.
