Advantages: Fun, easy to use and versatile Disadvantages: slightly poor graphics
I purchased the wii for my son a few months ago it came with wii sports one controler and the nunchuck. What a sensational games console, immediately everybody fell in love with it. Anytime we have guests for dinner, almost guaranteed the wii will make an appearance. It has become very competitive in our houshold especially with the ten pin bowling. The price I paid was £179.99, via an internet price comparison site. The graphics are a little crude, if you have been used to playing on other rival consoles, but for sheer fun, this little gem cannot be beaten. The console can be conneceted to the internet via a wireless router, this is not a major part of the gaming experience at present, but will become so in he future as more wii games are produce. At the moment on our console we have the wii weather channel which can be set for your own ...

the potential to fall down due to a (?) non-diving editor, but the reviews are done by interview with individual divers, so that doesn't really happen. Apparently these are 50 experts from around the world - I have to say I haven't heard of most of them, but the ones I have are well-known in the diving industry (e.g. Mike Ball, who runs a liveaboard company on the Great Barrier Reef).
Many of the reviews concentrate either on a particular site, or a particular feature of the area, e.g. diving with hammerheads, or sunfish (also called mola mola). They're well-written, but with an average of around 3 pages there's not much space for going into detailed information, it's only really a taster. There's some excellent pictures, such as the whale shark in the Belize section, but some of the pictures are a little underwhelming - there's quite a few ...
Advantages: Darius himself, lots of songs and styles Disadvantages: Extra feature doesnt work
As you may be able to tell, I am a mad Darius fan. I know many people only remember him as the cheesy, Britney impersonating runner-up from Pop Idol.
But if you look and listen closely you'll soon see he's the boy next door, Charming, handsome and with a good voice.
Vowing he would return and with a No.1 single and a triple platinum selling album by the time he was 35 years old, he achieved both easily with the release of 'Dive In'.

With its fresh ...
