Advantages: Hard Wearing, Durable, Cool , Cheap Disadvantages: Barbie isnt for most boys
...Children love to play, and this ususally involves running, rollerblading, cylcing, but mostly falling over! Although Barbie is considered soft and friendly, these knee and elbow pads are extremely hard, durable and most of all cool ( if they weren`t you little girl wouldnt wear them). With the velcro straps and well designed shape they are easy to put on, especially for small fingers. After several months of learning to rollerblade, my four year olds knees were begining to look like badly bruised apples. Now with these excellent knee & elbow pads my medical cabinet is collecting dust. Exceptional value for money and good piece of mind....

...EA love to get their grubby little mitts on everything they can.
Movie licences are hot business because if the film is popular then the game will sell.
The game doesn't have to be good, it just has to look nice.
EA have mastered the polishing a turd routine for years.
So when they picked up the BatmanBegins Licence, my heart sank.
Batman is a fantastic character to bring to videogames.
He can do the stealth of solid snake, the combat of Bruce Lee, the driving skills of Colin Mcrae and the Detective skills of Sherlock homes.
This is an amazing CV to put in a game.
Yet nobody has yet managed it.
The last Batman game was a passable attempt, but it was let down by a poor camera and weak combat.
So can EA combine the awesome array of Batman's skills into an amazing package?
As you will probably guess, Batmanbegins the game follows...

Advantages: Good design Disadvantages: Poor quality, difficult set-up, overpriced
...I purchased the toy for my 6-year-old daughter. She already has the Polly Pocket funfair and I think that it is a great toy and had expected the same of the Wheels Race to the Mall. Unfortunately, the quality does not stand up to it.
The race track is very hard to assemble. It took two adults and two children 1 hour to figure out where goes what although we followed the step-by-step description.
Now, we used the toy not even two months and the paint on the release buttons is already flaking off and one of the release buttons is completely jammed and can only be loosened up with a thin sharp object lifting it back to its original position.
You might argue that the buttons must have been hit too hard and it therefore jammed but the buttons have to be hit very, very hard to release the two cars.
The design looks great with the loop...

This 4th film in the series starts off well with the usual creation of a villan and regular fight scenes. This time around Batman ( now taken over by George Clooney) and his new partner ( Still played by Chris O'Donnel) face Dr.Freeze ( Arnold... more
Plaid's finest.
Plaid have release a considerable amount of material under the Warp Records, between 1992 and our present time. Not all of it was good... unless you are, or were, an I.D.M purist; from the LFO era for instance.
Double Figures is, in more
