Play (Live/Deluxe Edition) - Magazine

The Official Playstation Magazine

Advantages: Loads to read - great value - well laid out
Disadvantages: Nothing good on the demo disks - some sections of the magazine are quite short

points of the magazine - i prefer this to reading previews online. The only niggle really is that there are multiple pages but then only smaller sections for some games that i would love to hear about. The coming soon sections are nice - with calendar dates for when most will be released. The demo disk has been going for years but every month - demos are for games that I have no interest in playing or games that i have completed months ago. With all the new games coming out - surely they could go out of their way to get some exclusive demos - e.g a small demo of killzone 2 would increase everyones interest i think. One good thing for me is that the disk usually has the latest firmware update - which is handy. There is also some advice on what equipment to use - which is great - you can get advice on the best tv's and accessories. There ...

Wii Play

Advantages: See Review
Disadvantages: See Review

Wii Play: I recently hired Wii play from Tesco DVD Rentals to see if I liked it before buying it and I enjoyed it a lot so I thought I would review it for all of you. Wii Play is the kind of game that is great for when you have a group of friends around with several different mini-games to play. There is a multi-player function allowing for two people to play at once. Because the games are short, (a minute or so max), you can all take it turns to play without anyone getting bored whilst still allowing enough time for toilet/cuppa breaks. There are seven different mini-games on Wii Play and these are: Shooting Range: This is my favourite game and it involves shooting at various moving targets. There are five levels each with a different type of target each getting steadily more difficult. There are balloons, cans, targets, clay ...

Review of Wii Play (Wii)

Lets play

Advantages: Fun to play, 9 games to play
Disadvantages: none

The wii has revoloutionised the way we play video games. It has made everyone dancing, waaving arms around crazily, jumping in there own living rooms. I recently bought a wii and it obviously came supplied with the wii sport game but I decided I wanted to buy another game. I choose Wii play by nintendo. I bought the game as the cover looked interesting and the description of the game on the back caught my eye. So I put the game into the wii and started the game up. Good thing with the game is that you can play with your already made Mii's so loading my character up was easy. People that don't know, Mii's are character that you make of yourselves or others so you can play with them in different games. There are 9 different games in total and all use different functions of the wii remote. The games include shooting range, find ...
