Retro gamers take note

Advantages: A cheap way to addictive gaming
Disadvantages: Don't expect any fancy graphics

The Power Boy TV game pad consists of a green and red coloured joypad, in the PlayStation style, with a lead coming out of it. Just plug that lead into your TV, choose the correct channel and 127 classic games will be at your disposal immediately. Graphically, this belongs in a museum. Playability wise, there is enough variety of 8-bit 2 dimensional games to keep retro-gamers entertained for hours. The Game Pad plugs straight into the AV or Scart ...
...will need 3 x AA batteries (not supplied), although a 6 volt AC mains adapter would be a better long-term option (again, not supplied). All the games are one-player games, and they include such classics as Space Invaders, River Crossing, Hyper Sport, Galaxian, and yes – Tetris is also there. For £20 this would make an ideal gift for those of a certain age, who can re-live their youth through their TV with no hassle of buying a console and ...

Review of Power Joy TV Game Pad

Xbox 360 Arcade - wonderful console, let down a bit by microsoft

Advantages: good range of games; enjoyable Xbox live service; perfect starter-kit
Disadvantages: certain techno faults; difficult dealing with manufacturer

...machine was out of warranty, Microsoft would fix it. However, in order to get it fixed, we had to go through an unnecessarily complex process with shipping labels, etc. (which did not work from the emails we received), but eventually we got it sorted. However, it took so long that we actually went out and bought another one! This second one had trouble with the power supply only two months after being purchased. Intermittently, the power supply would ...
...problem was. Trying to call Microsoft to deal with the problem proved an unnecessarily lengthy and convoluted process, however, so ultimately we went through Amazon to get a replacement. It's important to consider your vendor, then, when buying an Xbox, as they're quite well-known for certain problems, and dealing with the actual manufacturer is never simple. That out of the way, the joys of the Xbox: Xbox Live and Additional Features I am ...

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 Slim (PS3)

Good, but consider the benefits of other consoles

Advantages: Easy to set up, use, games are well established, good graphic and sound
Disadvantages: Better consoles on the market

I recently bought an Xbox 360 as it had come down significantly in price to around £150 which I believed to be a bargain. I think the capabilities of the console itself i.e. graphics and sound are more than satisfactory but it does seem to have problems running certain games some of which were brand new out of the box. My other criticisms arose when I found that I had to keep buying new batteries for the wireless controller. I have been informed ...
...gizmo which avoids the need to keep buying batteries but this sets you back £15 and if you need two controllers you again have to buy these seperately. In keeping with the current market the Nintendo Wii and the Playstation 3 have come down in price to enhance competition and I would recommend that you look at the benefits offered by these consoles which I believe outstrip the Xbox. Firstly, the Wii is far more active so if you are looking to buy ...
