Levi
Just a word about the pictures! Sorry that they were not included in the first version of this review, and sorry that they had to be reduced in size and quality for the site. They were all taken on the Olympus reviewed elsewhere.

If you are looking for Levi on the map of Finland, there is a fair chance you will not spot it.
I have a Michelin 1: 125000 map, bought this year, and it does show Levi, but not as a town or city, just as a mountain slightly north of Kittala.
So for those as ignorant of Finland as I was before this summer trip, let me set it in context for you.
Helsinki, the capital is right down South in Finland. If you drive about 800kms north, you will arrive at the Arctic Circle, somewhere around Rovaniemi, depending on which route you take. It might be Kemijarvi if you go more easterly ...

Advantages: Interesting insight into the author's opinions Disadvantages: Sensationalist writing style that irritates

This is the fame in the life of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop.
"Frank, Dean, Sammy, Peter, Joey and the Last Great Showbiz Party" states the back cover.
Being a biographical piece, there is ...
Advantages: Challenging, plenty to explore and shoot Disadvantages: Frame-rate not steady, silly story, cannot skip ship sequences
*A review which is primarily based on the single-player experience of the third-person action-adventure game, Jet Force Gemini.*
Jet Force Gemini sees you taking on the evil tyrant of Mizar in a battle across the universe, and although the story, aimed at children (above the age of eleven - thanks ELSPA), can seem silly in places, the plot twists are simply stupid:
[SPOILERS]
When an asteroid is set on a collision course with Earth, an ancient starship is needed as the Jet Force ships won't be able to get there in time. However, not only do the Jet Force Team have to search for the ship parts, but they are also asked to save all of the Tribals - as if this doesn't take time (not the only thankless task which is a pain in the ass)! It's a farce as they would crash the starship on the Asteroid, yet still allow for players to travel to ...
