"Ooo oooh Daytona . ." .. Chris Rea 1991

Advantages: looks, handling, street cred, british made, traffic busting, grin factor, engine noise
Disadvantages: all the time you spend cleaning it

.... Away we go ---------------- The saddle seems higher than my 955 but narrower, in fact out of all the sports bikes I?ve owned, except perhaps a Yamaha TZR125 this probably one of the slimmest I can remember sitting on. Saying that though, the narrow saddle isn?t uncomfortable, and is easier to reach the ground then on my 955. The bars aren?t that wide apart either and I feel like I?m sat right over my hands as I lean forward to grasp the throttle. I blip it a couple of times to get a feel for the engine note, then snuck it into first and ease the clutch out. The drive starts to bite in and the Daytona eases itself towards the road. Once onto the road I ease on the power and change up into 2nd, there seems a large amount of movement to change gears, almost to the point if it was any further I may have struggled. As it is now I might...

Review of Daytona 675

Triumph Daytona 675, individually superb!!

Advantages: Triumph badge, grunt, handling, image, build quality
Disadvantages: will keep you out all weekend, prepare the divorce papers!!

...Over the years I've owned middleweight Honda's, Kawasaki's, Yamaha's, KTM's and an Aprilia Mille. I judge a bike by whether it gets me out of bed before 8am at the weekends. The Triumph Daytona 675 certainly does, not just at the weekends either. My Daytona is a 05 in red, the best colour in my opinion. I have to say that of all the bikes I've owned this is by far the best all rounder and its given me the biggest grin of the lot. Not to say that it does everything reasonably well like a CBR 600; the 675 everything exceptionally well, has the image, the heritage and the grin factor packed in as well! In my early riding years I was a junky for the Japanese reliability, yet soon became bored whilst everyone seemed to own the same bike as me and have the same opinion that they'd probably picked up from Ride Magazine last week. I went...

Daytona

Advantages: Relaxing, Clean Beach, Can go cruising on the beach
Disadvantages: basic motels

...I have mixed feelings about Daytona, but having travelled to Orlando on holiday, it was one of the places I felt I had to see. It is approximately one to one and a half hours drive from Orlando and very, very different from the commercialism of Orlando/Disney. When we were there it was the build up to the Daytona 500 and it was very busy. We visited Daytona Speedway when the cars were practising and did the "tour" where a small train takes you through the tunnel on the infield, awesome, you really dont realise the sheer scale of the place until you are in the middle of it. You are given all the information you need to know about the Speedway and if you are lucky may see some cars practising. Considering how famous Daytona is you really shouldnt miss it. The tour lasts about half an hour but I cant recall how much it was, but not...

Review of Daytona Beach (Florida)

Daytona 900 - Sports Tourer

Advantages: Triumph Brand. Good Finnish. Stable and predictable.
Disadvantages: Heavy, long reach to bars, parts expensive.

...This is my second Daytona 900, so I guess I like them. I had a VFR750 in between. The Daytona is a good long distance fast tourer. It is not a sports bike and if thats what you want I would look to one of the newer Daytonas or another bike altogether. It sweeps through bends and is very stable at speed but it doesn't have the fast steering of a sports bike or the insaine power band. The power is smooth and progresive, there is plenty but it doesn't come all in a rush like alot of sports bikes. The Daytona has a fantastic sense of presence and it is the kind of bike that makes people look to see what it is. Mine is bright red which also probably makes it more noticable. (My last one was black which was very difficult to keep clean) The seat is very comfortable and the pegs are not so high up to be cramped (I'm 5'10"). However it...

Modern Warfare 2

Advantages: Graphics, Sound, Campiagn, Online Multiplayer, Simple Controls
Disadvantages: Complicated Multiplayer maps

...The wait is finally over and Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 2 has finally arrived. I was eagerly anticipating its release, so much so that I pre-ordered it the first day that it was available to do so. The original Modern Warfare and World at War are probably my 2 favourite games of all time, so would one of the most hyped up games of all time, live up to expectations ? ~~~ First Impressions ~~~ Right from the beginning I was impressed. The adverts before the actual game are again skippable, which means you're ready to start shooting in seconds. The first menu lets you go into whichever game mode you want and all in all the game looked excellent after the first minute or so. ~~~ Story ~~~ The game takes place 5 years after the original Modern Warfare. Despite your best attempts back then the Russians have...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3)

Modern Warfare 2 - Fun but not Fantastic

Advantages: intriguing gameplay, flawless sound/graphics, rolling storyline
Disadvantages: anti-climax, little repetitive, nothing really new to catch onto

...The hype was wild for Halo 3, it continued for the anticipations of Halo Wars and many were disappointed. Hype was given for Gears of War and that continued for Gears of War 2 and many were disappointed. Likewise Call of Duty was bound to reach a similar anti-climax and so far it has. The overall conclusion is that is fun but not fantastic. However it is important to note that unless you are the stereotypical gamer who has his own gaming chair complete with a surrounding of cookies, crisps, full fat cola, a headset and the limited edition of Halo 3's Spartan mask, likiness is you won't find the game at all a let down. Afterall Infinity Ward are possibly the only people to construct a war-time gaming experience that steers well clear of clichés which removes the unbelievable characters who would look more in place in a Marvel Comic strip...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360)

==Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Gameplay==

Advantages: Compared to the first modern warfare they have added driving in the story and its more detailed.
Disadvantages: To be honest, besides a few environmental graphics, it looks to be the shooter of the decade.

...Call of Duty Modern warfare 2 looks amazing if you?re a halo freak you will fall in love with this first person shooter. It's very detailed. They even switched the map to the screen on your gun unlike any game I have seen before. As far as if you just want to buy the game, and not go online to play, the story line features are so much better. You can even drive on this epic 1st person shooter. The disadvantages to this game as far as I can see are only a few visual slumps like every once in awhile a car will not look as realistic but everything else is wonderful. If you?re looking for a gift for a gamer or just want to try an epic 1st person shooter then this is the game for you....

Modern Warfare 2 The Truth

Advantages: Everything
Disadvantages: may think that campaigns a little short but perfect for me

... Modern Warfare 2 Introduction Oh my god, modern warfare 2 is out and I?ve got it. With over 7 million copies sold world wide, on released date, modern warfare has no shortage of people to play with. Modern warfare 2 is the sequel to most probably the best shooter of all time (until this one) and this one expands and improves in almost everyway. There has been a lot of controversy about certain content which personally I don?t see that much of a problem with but if you don?t want to see it you can block that section out so what?s the biggy. Modern warfare 2 contains a brilliant campaign which although some reviewers such as ign say is to short i think it is perfect as it makes a good story, ends it very well and if it was to long I wouldn?t get the extra hours on multiplayer, Multiplayer has been further improved as I will...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS3)

Call of Duty modern warfare 2 Worth it???

Advantages: Brilliant graphics, very good onine multiplayer, nice features added which orignal did not have.
Disadvantages: quite a complex storyline

...The most eagerly anticipated game of the year, possibly even the decade. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is a first person shooter available on the most popular games consoles. Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and PC. the game is rated 18 and for good reason. Many scenes throughout the campaign mode of the game I personaly found quite disturbing, however this would not put me off buying the game. one level in particular where you pose as a terrorist, and with your gang walk around an Airport shooting civillians. you do however get the choice to skip this level when you load up the game. I would not recomend that you buy this game for your child, or anyone under the 18 year age recommendation. Despite the few disturbing levels you cannot deny the incredible graphics and gameplay that Activision have managed to create in the amzaing game...

Review of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360)

COD: Modern Warfare 2, Could it get ANY better! Seriously!!

Advantages: Epic single player, Amazing Multiplayer and has great Replay Value
Disadvantages: You may not leave your room for a few weeks, Special Ops not all that

...Where to Begin?? The sequel to Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. The game follows on from the first and I've got to be honest with you, I LOVE THIS GAME! I'm more of a multiplayer kind of guy racking up over 10 days of online play on the first but I resisted all of my temptations and played the single player, now the best campaigns i've played range from Halo 3 to Gears of War 2, but top of my list now Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The story line can only be described as EPIC! Once i started i found it hard to stop and after completing it i was craving for more. If they made it into a film it would be an all time great. A huge variety of missions that is sure to entertain any gamer. Once i completed it on regular, i went back and done it on veteran. Now if you don't have Xbox live, GET IT!! You are seriously missing out if you...
