Game Reviews

This game keeps us laughing at when, the bar is going to snap at the remaining pegs that you have to pull out. It gives us a big surprise each time we play it! Buy it and have a giggly evening with your family and friends!

This game was originally called "Booby Trap" and was much beloved by me and my siblings as children. We first bought the game in 1975, and it lasted at least 10+ years with frequent play, so 2001 was a good time to get a new one. This toy is very educational also, because you learn strategic thinking skills (some pieces are worth more than others; get your fingers out of the way when the bar is squeezing the pieces together). Simple rules, great fun!

This is a good game of strategy for two; the fact that it teaches some basic physical principles is a bonus. Our kids (6 and 8) are captivated by their attempts to remove pieces slowly without letting the spring-bar snap forward. Time after time, they have learned the consequences of being too rash or hasty in their movements or thinking. Unlike similar games like pick-up-sticks, there is no hiding a poorly chosen move as the pieces will fly when you try to move the wrong piece.

The only drawback is that the tension can be so strong, that the slightest movement may cause the bar to move forward. But, there is learning in this result as the results of any touch of the pieces may not always be what you expect.

Perquacky is a great game. We have introduced so many friends to the game and it's always an instant hit. It looks easy. It looks fascinating. You can't wait for your turn to test your abilities. Certainly you can build 5 three, four and five letter words before your time is up. Of course you can get at least a few 6 or 7 letter words. But once the sand starts running through the hour glass, the tension sets in. All eyes are on you. Will you choke? This game is loads of fun for anyone who can put a word together. You can learn to play in a few minutes, but it will keep you going for hours. As a bonus, it's compact and easy to carry most anywhere.

This game consists of 12 cubes (dice with letters on all 6 sides), a timer, and simple rules. You roll the cubes and make up to 5 3-, 4-, 5- etc. letter words as you can until your hourglass timer runs out. You can adapt it so that younger and older players can compete by restricting the number of cubes for older players. Fun, educational, and addictive. If you love scrabble, you'll really love this game.

I'm a teacher, I played this game when I was a child and loved it! Now I use it in my classroom for reading groups and to make learning fun for low readers as well as advanced readers! It helps students make words, use word association, and many more helpful skills. The best part of all, the kids love it and beg to play!!

No need to spend [money] on a Sony Licensed Memory Card. This one works just fine, hasn't failed me yet.

I bought this memory card for it's bargain value, and it's the best buy I made so far! I've had it for some months now and never had a problem. As soon as they are back in stock I plan to buy another.

Well, it's basically the same exact Playstation card as the regular ones, but with a hockey mask on it. I gave it five stars because I have had no trouble with saves erasing. The hockey mask is really just a small bonus.

your a fan to the backstreetboys
I'm fan to nickcarter

This is the best computer game out there...especially if you're a huge Backstreet fan, like me! I haven't played this computer game yet but I'm dyin' to try it 'cause it looks soooo cool. If you're a Backstreet fan - even if you're not good with computers 'cause you can just get somebody to teach you - you should definitely must own this item for your Backstreet Collection. It's a great buy and you won't be disappointed. Say you're buying this for a friend to make an excuse to buy this for yourself!

It is a great game that takes a lot of skill and strategy to figure out how to put the music videos together. Even if you aren't a backstreet boys fan, anybody would want to have this mind boggling game.

This Monopoly set is perfect for anyone who has fond memories of the comic strip Peanuts. As you travel around the board, you can buy the classic characters (Peppermint Patty and Marcy to Pig Pen, Woodstock, and Snoopy) or locations and situations (the pumpkin patch or kicking the football). Probably my favorite change is the railroads, which are now holidays (must own Christmas). The tokens include Lucy's psychiatric booth, Schroeder's piano, and Woodstock. And Snoopy adorns all the money. Even the font used on the title deed cards imitates the style of printing used in the strip for 50 years.

As others have noted, the "nests" and "doghouses" look remarkably like houses and hotels. While a little disappointing, it doesn't dampen my enjoyment of this incarnation of the classic board game.

This game has alot going for it with the Peanuts gang as its theme. The board, money and tokens are superb. The major disappointment, and I do mean MAJOR is the fact this game does not have customized pieces to replace the houses and hotels. They have colored the houses brown instead to represent Woodstock's nests, and left the hotels as is to represent Snoopy's dog house. It is a shame that after all the careful design work that went into this game, the manufacturer took the cheap way out and didn't properly finish off the game. You will notice that all the new monopoly editions are like this. They just color the houses and hotels differently, and still claim , as they do on Peanuts, that it is a "completely customized game".

Just like regular Monopoly, with fun Peanuts twists with every roll of the dice!

Beilsten was standing in front of Prince.Prince lashed out a yo-yo smashed Balstein in the face.Prince then let out an energy ball and smashed Balstein.He hit Balstein with 10 doll bombs,and then got out of kicking range......
This is what this game is about.Special attacks and sweet blocks.Every character has his or her own clone-type they must fight before fighting Bilstein.A very fun and interesting game.Can hook you on and on,just trying to find out the moves!A tekken with a twist,I give this book 2 thumbs up.The game also allows most of the characters,at the beggining!This game is a very sweet game,and has excellent controller function.It also has humor,when Prince walks backwards,he walks,Michael Jackson style!

Although this game may look "kiddy" it is actually fun. To be honest the only reason I bought the game was because Hayato was in it and I always play with him on Marvel vs. Capcom 2. But this game revived a sense of pure fun which had died in me since the original MK days. This game is along the Capcom game line including the usual hyper combos and specials. So if you want my advice it is truly one of the funnest fighting games to come out in a long time and you can tell the people at Capcom really used their imaginations making it (need I remind you of Saturns "Dance with me" special?). So in short, if you like fighting games, crazy and cool looking moves, and a good time, this game is for you.

This is a great game. There are 22 characters, and 2 of each are a like. The moves are great, although i wish there were more. The price is only .... I first played this at a friends house and loved it, so I decided to get it. The moves are easy to learn since it says in the instruction booklet. It is pretty easy but not too easy so it doesn't get boring fast.

If you were disapointed with the horrible mess: sled storm for PS2, then you should really dig this title as it is a little more realistic. Hey, even the sleds seem to look better, for a PSone title this game is top notch and at a bargain price to boot. The tracks and scenery are awesome, and the sleds keep getting better and better as you progress. I could write all day on how great this is, but trust me the only other great snowmobile racer so far is Sled Storm for PSone, and these two games compliment each other. Bottom-line Polaris Snocross is truly awesome.

this game is the best snowmobile game ever.its filled with huge bumps and jumps and awesome snowmobiles! you have to see this game for yourself!this game has great scenery and moving objects and water.you can also pull off awesome tricks like a backflip or a hand stand.it also has great tracks and you can find short cuts through water falls and caves.

this game rocks.this game is action packed with huge jumps and bumps!!!there are awesome sleds and courses.this game you have to see for yourself!!!!

Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame does a good job in continuing the Prince of Persia series. It improves the graphice with many more colors and a much more colorful outfit for the Prince. It improves the sword-fighting making it much more relistic and exciting. With new traps and environments each level has a NEW look! A couple of things bugged about it all the same. First of all, despite the fact that the levels were well designed, the ones in the first were better, MUCH better. The story is repeated (Princess is abducted, Prince must rescue her), which actually isn't that bad, but the last level was sort of a dissapointment. Also, despite the fact that I like new traps, there weren't enough original traps. Overall the game is worth the money it costs. $10 is a steel, but don't buy this before the original. If you don't have the original then buy the Prince of Persia COllection, which has both plus a preview for the third in the sreies, Prince of Persia 3D, which was released a year ago. The only people I don't recommend this game to are the ones who only like the no-brain shoot'em up games. I don't think it's quite their style, they don't usually go for classic games.

The Prince Of Persia 2 is one of my favorite games I own! The fact that you ride the horse, be the shadow, and be the flame, is the BEST part of the game.This game will take you a long time to complete, so... this game is a STEAL . . . BUY IT WHILE YOU HAVE A CHANCE!

This is probably the best PC game I have ever played! The levels and swordfighting are very challenging and realistic and it's cool how the Prince moves from the Palace, to the Island, to the Caverns, to the Ruins, to the Temple, and back to the Palace in about 90 minutes! That's kinda short, but if you're like me, you'll keep playing and won't get tired of it for a long time! Check it out!

This is still a great deal for Timeshock and Big Race USA but despite the earlier review be warned that there is apparently no cd music (or any music at all) on The Web. It DOES have a great soundtrack as I had this on the Mac some time ago but according to Interplay there are no music tracks offered in this version. I don't understand this but no explanation was given. It is the weakest table in any case but without music it makes a good coaster. I don't think it is a "tease" either as the game seems unavailable by itself. This seems to be a trend as Timeshock was also offered in "pinball madness 2" and it too turned out to be a stripped-down, no-music affair. In both cases this was never mentioned in the game description. So first you fiddle with your settings all night to find the problem... then you find out they just didn't bother to sell you the whole package... nice. Still a decent price indeed for the TWO working games.

This is a real 3-D pin-ball series. A GREAT VALUE indeed.

You can even see the reflection of the environment on the surface of the stell ball as it moves -- so cool are the graphics.

But there are hiccups / delay in rendering when loading another module.

Good overall game. Grat for family/friends too -- upto four players can play.

Accept no substitutes: Pro Pinball is the _only_ PC pinball simulation worth playing. And for an unprecedented low price, you get all three Pro Pinball titles: The Web, Timeshock!, and Big Race USA. Considering this: I bought Timeshock! and The Web together for $15 and Big Race USA by itself for $30 and am _still_ happy with the value I got. You can imagine, then, what kind of treasure you're getting with this package.

Unlike other PC simulations of that silver ball, Pro Pinball offers tables that are so complex and realistic in their design they can literally hold their own against (and oftentimes outperform) modern pinball tables you might see at your local arcade. Gameplay in all three tables is complex, yet engaging enough that you can have absolutely no idea what's going on yet have a blast nonetheless. Once you figure out the rules to the tables, though, the games really take off, and that's where the addiction comes in. And no silly things like balls that change shape, ridiculously large multi-tiered tables, or illogical loops -- every gadget, ramp, and gizmo in these tables are completely believable and have been implemented in real, physical tables in the past. The balls move smoothly and realistically with alarmingly accurate physics, and a truer representation of pinball cannot be found, anywhere.

The themes of the tables are also very well-designed and make you want to play "just one more game." The Web has a Blade Runner-esque theme and feels a bit derivative and dated, but it is also the oldest title. Timeshock! and Big Race USA are the real treasures of this package, and both complement each other very nicely, each giving you a very different pinball experience with Timeshock!'s serious, time travel story and Big Race USA's very light-hearted, humorous veneer.

If you've _ever_ liked pinball, YOU MUST GET THIS PACKAGE. Failure to do so is a severe disservice to yourself. Those $15 will easily outlast any other PC game you've got. I've played and permanently shelved countless more expensive PC games -- but I still play Pro Pinball. And those tables are just as fun now as they were when I first bought them.

this item safe alot of money and has alot of great stuff in here

This product I bought as I needed a combo pack for a few new items that I did not buy seperate. I have not tried the controller for its feel however the rest is solid! However I would like to make a side note, Amazon says this product comes with a 8MB card, it does not, so keep that in mind ok? =)

Great for if you just bought a PS2 or if you already have one and just want to have more accesories. Has everything you need like an extra controller which is a must if you only have one and if you already have two it comes in handy when you plug in the multi-player tap for parties and if you want to play with more than one friend. It also comes with a Extension cable if yor TV is farther away from where you sit to play than you would like it to be and also an optical cable which dosent really serve much of a big purpose. Also a Lighted DVD Remote for when you would like to watch a movie and dont want to mess with the controller to find out what buttons to press to play and stop, etc. Finaly, a DVD Lens Cleaner to fix your PS2 when Disc Read Error pops up.
