Game Reviews

I am 6 1/2 years old. I like Pig Pile because I can play it with my whole family. Pig Pile can be a little hard when you are learning how to play, but it is still fun. I only had to play it twice to get the idea of how to play.

Whenever we get together to play games with our friends, they almost always ask about Pig Pile. It's a simple game to learn - my little nephews picked it up right away - but there is something deeply fun and satisfying about the dynamic. Plus you get to win cute plastic pigs. Everyone we know loves this game. Another universal favorite is Guillotine, a card-based game that is much more lighthearted than the name might suggest.

Trust me, this is the BEST, Most FUN game. We bought it to play with our then-7 yr old. We soon were playing it with our family and friends. It is a favorite when we get together. You cannot go wrong buying this game.

This is a Wonderful game. not only is it fun, but you can learn a lot. I have also found that even a couple of my friends who are slightly younger than me have fun too. My parents like it too. So basically, it has levels of hardness for everyone but can go light on the smaller kids. My only concern is that in the future, me and my friends will run out of cards and get sick of the game. Overall, the game is a blast to play.

There is nothing better (at times at least ) than a game that the whole family enjoys playing. Our 8-year old and 6-year old love to play this game with us and it helps the youngest's reading, counting (on the board) and knowledge for both of them. The only problem is our youngest who is 3 1/2 wants to play and she is a bit too young and winds up getting frustrated and frustrating us all in turn.
A nice small game to bring on vacation and even play in the car or airplane - for all ages (the youngest ones need to be on a team with someone older and the older ones need patience.)
Fun!

I have had "Outburst Junior" sitting on my game shelf for many years now. My kids are grown now, but recently I had some young visitors and remembering all the hours of fun we had with this game in years past(It's still in great shape), I thought it would be a great way to keep these youngsters entertained. And it was! The object is to try and YELL out as many items in a specific catagory, as you can think of in a limited amount of time.The kids loved this as they got to show off what they knew and use their "outside voices" as well! In the edition I have(hopefully it is still the same), there are cards picked at random that decide the catagories, there is one side for kids subjects(name the 7 dwarves etc, and the other side of the card is for the adults and the subjects are of course a little harder. So there's a level playing field, the kids can compete with you and you DON'T have to let them win. It's fun, a great break from TV and video games, and it makes them THINK! Even if their just playing against other kids, they'll enjoy it.I would definitly reccomend this for school age kids and their parents.
Have fun....Laurie

We can play this game with the entire extended family-

Our nephew who is as young as 7 can play this game and it is great for mental stratagies.

I recommend this to all.

This is a must have for all classic game lovers. With 3 of our 4 children visually disabled, it was quite easy for them to see the dots (easy for the older parents too!). The youngest children were not frustrated because they could match up the dominoes by color, and eventually learned the patterns and counting as well. They are very durable and come inside a tin that has a snug-fitting lid to prevent spills. Detailed instructions are included for many versions of play. This is a perfect game for Family Game night as the games are short enough to complete before younger players get frustrated.

This is one of the most exciting games there is for family time, bought by one of my friends we have played for hours without getting board. Wanting to buy one of my own found ur web site, it's a shame it can only be shipped within the US.Try and consider ur border neighbors, we want to play too.
Thank u,

Why does everyone think this game is so great?? I find it to be just an average game. You start out with three monsters and you must battle people to get more cards. There are only about 20-30 monsters in this game. They each have attack cards and defense cards. If you want to get more cards, you must battle people in these boring looking dungeons. The people follow you and if they catch you, then you have to battle them. Each dungeon has 6 floors, so by the time you are done, you have battled about 30 people!! The battles so get old, that this game will be left on your shelf in no time! Bottom Line.... Don't buy this game unless you are a really big Monster Rancher fan. Even if you are a Monster Rancher fan, I suggest you buy it for Play Station. I these games you get to battle with REAL monsters, not monster cards. If you aren't a fan and you just want a game that involves cards, try Yu-Gi-Oh. Yu-Gi-Oh ROCKS!

I think everyone should get this,because it's a great game(especially with gamesharck).There are many things to do and you dont get bored!

I think its very fun getting discs and getting monsters and rising them . And one of the best things is you get to ballte them and train them . you can get 100 cards to ballte . each monster has a certain lifetime .

Ms. Pacman and Pacman are a couple of my very few favorite video games. Every time I get the chance to play it I do, and if I see that they have it at the bowling alley or somewhere I will play it, but I rarely see it in places, even arcades. If you are reconsidering to not buy this game you're missing out on a great offer, because I highly doubt you'll ever find this in a store brand new, or even used for some game systems, especially N64. Plus, if you did find it in a store the prices would run from 40-60 dollars anyway. I hope you get the chance to enjoy this game just as thousands of other people did too.

I bought this game for my five year old and he loves it. I even played a couple of times with him and I enjoy it myself. It is a great game for the whole family. There are lots of different mazes and obsticles to go through. If you like the arcade version of ms. pac-man you will love this one as well.

The game is pretty cool. It has cool graphics plus 3D mini games. You have to beat one master and it has 4 levels to defeat. It's extremely fun. The mini games are fast and wild! When I play this game, I beat all the levels and I also got up to the master...I beat all the mini games and I say "EVERYBODY GET THIS GAME!!" done.

There should be more games like Ms Pac Man out there. Its clean fun and a great game. If you want a good, challenging and most of all FUN game then its made for you.

Go get it you won't regret it and pick up Frogger 2 while you're at it, they're both mad fun

Great graphics, great sound and challenging (you gotta think to beat this one)!

I bought this game, wondering if it was similar to the retro-Centipede. It was better in many ways. Like Centipede, you can play either the classic version or the new. Personally, I like the new game better. The music is superior, the graphics are good, and the adventure theme makes the game more challenging than the "antique".
The object of the game is to eat all the dots and collect all the fruit. This isn't an easy feat. There are several gadgets you have to work to get around in the levels. Those are easy to learn, thanks to the tutorial in the first level. Not only do you have to avoid/eat the ghosts, but there are other nasty creatures as well, such as exploding bottle rockets (in the China Town level), feral cats (in the Ice level), and guard dogs (in the Haunted House level). When you complete each level, you have the option of playing a bonus game or moving on to the next level. What's more, you can either play the Quest level or the Timed level. The latter involves getting Ms. Pac-Man through the maze in a minute or two. For experienced gamers, this isn't a problem. For novice users, it will prove more frustrating.
The haunted house level was my favorite. There were so many monsters and pitfalls that it kept me entertained for hours. I found that if I kept going in full circle, I was able to collect everything. What frustrated me in the other levels was that I couldn't get to all the dots and fruits, which is needed to earn a star, which determines whether or not you can go to the next level. I learned that there were secret doors, but sometimes I couldn't access them. Then there was the issue of the controls. The slightest push could send Ms. Pac-Man to her doom. There were many times where I lost a life because I had moved the controller one way, but went the other. That didn't matter because you can go back to the previous level and collect more health/life icons. By the time I finished the game, I had collected more than 150 lives.
Despite the frustrations, this is a very good game the whole family will enjoy. Highly recommended.

I thought this game was the best! If i could i would have played it for hours on end-though some of the puzzles can be annoyingly hard-that gives the game texture. Along with the fact that there are many different courses to go alonge the maze. For retro loves there is also the first one and fun multiplayer games.

This is an amazing deal. For a wooden chess board with wooden pieces, this is an excellent price. Although the wooden pieces arn't really heavy and don't have felt bottoms - this is an excellent deal for $9. This fits perfectly on my desk and looks great. People are constantly telling me how nice it looks and amazed I would pay so much for it. The board is solid and very heavy - very nice. Enjoy!

My set arrived in wonderful condition, no cracks or other flaws and, although the peices aren't big on detail, they are a good size, light and do have a design to them. Plus they get the job done. The board isn't too small for me either. I wanted a smaller, lighter set for travel, playing at the beach etc... For $9.99 this is a real bargain!

This is a good quality chess set for its price, but there is something about the company Pavilion that really bothers me. A few chess sets I've seen by them has a picture showing the light-coloured square on the left hand side, but it's supposed to be set up on the right hand side. I'm not trying to bash Pavilion or anything, I just don't want begginers and children to be confused about how the chessboard should be set up, as it is a very important factor of the game.

I have 2 brothers and 1 sister, and only having 2 controller slots can make people waiting for their turn to get vicious!! Now that we can fit 4 people at once we can kick eachothers bums 3d-style :) 4 stars because ps2 should have 4 controller slots in the first place :)

In Crash Team Racing,the Multi Tap is available! The Multi Tap is great! Sports games get even better with it,not to mention racing! You'll love the tap!

Finally, someone realized that people were getting tired of waiting their turn to play NBA Hangtime or Crash Team Racing! Or maybe they realized that people were getting tired of taking out and putting back in memory cards all the time. Well I'm just glad they did, cause now life is alot easier for me!

Belive it or not, but this product improved the quality to my television. I was on the verge of buying a new one, when I order this RF Adaptor. Before, the color of my screen was really bright. So when I played Halo, when I got health, it blinded the entire screen. But since I hooked this baby up, there has been TREMENDOUS improvement in color, sound, and picture. It's almost like using the regular audio video 'hookups'.

This game, is by far the game of the year. Most reviewers that i've seen and read (before I got the game) said the game had suprior graphics, a tremendous story line, and amazing gameplay. Well, they were right. Even the music brings such emotion to the puzzle you're trying to solve. Although this game may get pretty impossible at times, it's mad fun unfolding the puzzles. Great attention to detail and a very addicting story line. It is fairly long, so it actually makes you feel like you got your moneys worth, as I did. You know Ubi is going to come with some cool things for you to scope out, and they really broke through on this one. Graphics are superb for a game of this calibur. Props to the p33pz at Ubisoft.

I thought this was great. The graphics were superb and the gameplay was challenging. I wish it had support for Xbox Live.

Our family truly enjoys the Rush Hour game and tried this one as well - it is bigger and bulkly and convenient for travel. I alos find the puzzles to be a bit easier. The pieces don't slide as well as Rush Hour.

I knew this game at a friend's house and love it even I was 30 already at that time. I bought several when I went back to visit my family and they all love it. When I told my mom that I would give my brother's 1st grad boy a set, she told me he won't like it since he doesn't like the brain games. But he loves it soon after my sister explain to him the rules and he enjoys to do it. My little one, almost 23 months old now, likes those animals and loves to put all of those animals to the board one by one and kind of learn the size and arrange the place. It's not only for 8 and up.

I bought this for my 6 year old. She played with it for an hour the first time. It is a game she can play solo. After using the Junior cards, she went on to the beginner. She is still progressing. This is a great thinking game. I highly recommend it.
