Advantages: Funny, great night out, good food. Disadvantages: None.
As you may have guessed from my latest reviews I am on a bit of an Amsterdam review phase at the moment. As my wife and I visited over xmas we wanted to visit as many places as we could to sample the varied nightlife that Amsterdam has to offer, many friends had recommended Boom Chigao so we thought we would give it a go.
Boom Chicago is a comedy club essentialy, on Leidesplain, which is in the heart of the nightlife and restaurant area, quite near to other attractions such as the Alto Jazz cafe. Very easy to get to by tram, or by foot. Entry is 24 Euro on it's own, or for 36 Euro you get entry plus a meal, though there are some supplements for the more expensive dishes such as Sea Bass. You also get one free drink with the meal, I chose a Dutch Dark beer which was quite strange in taste, pleasant, but like drinking warm juice from ...

Boom Chicago, as the name suggests, originally hail from the good ol’ US of A. A bunch of their performers turned up in Amsterdam nine years ago and never went home. They are among the premier comedy improvisation groups in the world. For those of you who aren’t sure what improvisation is, just think of "Whose Line is it Anyway?" and for those of you who have never seen WLIIA, it’s stuff which is made up on the spot, without the aid of a script or a safety net.

Today they own their own theatre and bar/restaurant on the Leidseplein in central Amsterdam, where they perform daily and twice on Fridays and Saturdays. The show you see will normally depend on which night you go, as there are usually two different productions going on at any one time. However, when I ...

Advantages: Orginal, great multiplayer modes Disadvantages: Can become tedious on your own
After playing this with my friends I was hooked. Boom Blox is an excellent multiplayer game with many variations on the basic idea of throwing blocks at things. I have not yet explored all the features and games but from what I have seen it does the wii justice. Its all too easy to get side-tracked from knocking blocks from a tower when anoying beaver-rabbit-hamster creatures dance around the edge of the screen, sooner or later you cave and lob a block at one of 'em and your opponent takes the lead. This game is amazing with someone but without it can become quite repetitive. If you want a party game or something to play with people I urge you, buy this game but if you are the solo-gamer or more hardcore avoid this game. It is like so many other wii games, original, cute and very playable with friends. The many modes and brilliant ...
