The controller itself is very good, a far better fit for my hands than Playstation's design, and the analogue sticks are better because the bowl shape cups your thumbtips. However, I prefer the shoulder buttons on the PS3 controller and the D-pad on this one is near-useless.

It's the best choice for a modern PC gamer though, due to its instant compatibility with any Games for Windows branded game, and the third-party software "xpadder" makes it easy to get it working for any other game too, making it as close to the definition of 'plug and play' as any controller.

The vibration feature is also strong and an excellent inclusion for the price you pay. For games like Devil May Cry 4 and classics such as Beyond Good & ... Read More:

I got this game for christmas with my ds. My dad chose it and I think it was a great choice. You get to buy a puppy and train it lots of tricks. When you train your puppy's name it can be hard but you'll get through it. Its fun going on walks but don't let your puppy eat rubbish! I love going in contests. There are three different types. You also get to wash, groom, and play with your puppy. Collecting supplies is fun. In accseseries I even got a lions mane and santas hat! You get to meet your friends dogs and give them presents. I say anyone could like this game so please buy it! Its worth the money.

The idea/concept is great, the graphic are good, Shaun moves around very easily.

I'm not a great games fan at the best of times and bought this for my son, he's already become very bored with it as the instructions are pretty minimal - find the sheep, but there's no hint or clues and when you've rummaged in every bush - all you ever get is either a pair of old teeth, a horn or tin can - fought the pigs 1,000,000 times the games becomes monotonous, boring and quickly consigned to the bottom of the game pile.

Maybe it's just me, but I wish I'd saved my money!

Last time I was happy I bought my FIFA copy was back in 2006 with FIFA07. This times the experience has improved but there are some technical issues that I face in a Windows Vista environment.

First of all menu loading is very slow which is probably caused by compatibility issues of FIFA09 with my GeForce 8600GT graphics card. EA Sports should in fact release a patch to fix issues with graphics cards. My system has 3GB of RAM at 2.5GHz processor speed which makes it powerful for such a game. At least I thought, until I was quickly proven wrong after installing FIFA09 on my machine. As mentioned in one of the other reviews antialliasing and reflection effects are not applied in gameplay only during replays in my case.

I've had this since it came out and I've since upgraded PC specs etc. (Quad Core 6600 @2.4GHz, 2GB RAM, 2 x 8800GTX SLI), and with the details set high enough to make it pretty, I get about 8-10 frames per second. If I lower the details to make it run at 20+fps, it looks a bit mid-90's.

On the one hand, what they've achieved is very impressive. On the other hand it doesn't make for a smooth flying experience. It could really use a whole lot more planes too.

WOW! Simply... wow. This is one heck of an addicive game. I've never been as hooked up on a game as this one. I simply can't stop playing.

Its fast, fun, and action-packed!

And you can now re-live ALL the star Wars, from the classics, till the new ones.

Simply irresistible! Oh! And its for the whole family, and if its a bit difficult for the smallest, team up; the coop-mode is excellent. Two players at the same time - no split-screen.

Now I am probably one of thee worlds biggest critics for the Xbox 360 during its release phase. I must have told hundreds of people "dont get one of them wait for the PS3 its gonna be awesome", and cannot count the amount of arguements I have had with people over this console war.
But.....my god I have been turned to the dark side. This console has to be the best gaming experience I have ever had. My early life was Nintendo (Super Mario at the age of 2 has to be the highlight) but then came along the Playstation with its flip up lid and CD's (this was amazement to me considering the catridges I was so used to).
Games that brought to attention different aspects of playability and excitement, like GTA, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil (and for us sports fans FIFA ... Read More:

The PSP is really a multimedia player, supporting photos, MP3's and video on it's large screen, as well as a decent internet and games support.
The games and UMD's released for it, however, are a joke.

I think that Sony should scrap the idea of a UMD based console and re-release it as a games compatable multimedia player, with a faster processor, built in solid state memory (like the ipod has) and a touch screen & stylus.

Either way, a good quality multimedia player as it is, at a low price with (now) cheap memory.

Hi,

I'm not a bad player at Tetris. I liked the original Gameboy version and I actually wrote a faster version in less than a day for an old Psion organiser (remember those?) and called it Turbotris! I used to play my own version of the game but noone else I knew could play it at the fastest settings. The reason I could play so fast was that in the original gameboy version (and my faster remake) I always knew where to put the next piece before I'd dropped the current piece in. This was because the next piece was clearly shown at a convenient eye level next to the playing area so you could see both at the exact same time.

The trouble I have with the DS version (I've only played the wifi 2 player game so far) is that I am playing blind even though now ... Read More:
