A Box with No End ...

Advantages: Lennard Pearce as Grandad, & Classic Episodes
Disadvantages: Not all the Best & Special Episodes, No Extras

...? --------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------- The First Series 1 to 7 Box Set is stuffed with over 50 different episodes listed below. The great thing about this Box Set is that there is no particular order you must follow. There is a vast range of story lines for you to follow which do not overlap with episodes. You could start in reverse order and I guarantee unlike other programmes, you will fully understand from scene to scene without having a specific order to follow. This will allow you and others to view episodes individually at your own choice and leisure. Here you have an almost complete package of Classic British Comedy for both teenagers and adults. The only thing missing is that it does not feature each & every episode ever made for BBC Television. But the Box Set is a great introduction to those who have unfortunately not as of yet discovered 'Only Fools & Horses' as...

My Own Juke box

Advantages: Excellent Sound Quality
Disadvantages: None

...to rearrange the lounge to make it all fit and then to set it all up - which actually wasn't that difficult. All of the Instructions were well written and really straightforward. The hardest thing was to set up the speakers to get the best sound. The final job was to dispose of all of the polystyrene and cardboard boxes, not to mention plastic bags. Over the next few weeks I'm going to review the separates on a piece by piece basis, starting with my favourite toy, the Compact Disc Player. Perhaps personal juke box is a more appropriate expression. The CD player is awesome, it is a 301 disc autochanger, I kid you not - virtually my whole CD collection is in it. I've got all of the cases in boxes in the loft. I know that today there is a trend for small systems playing MP3 etc but my system as a whole is a really nice piece...

Can a juke box really fit in a car?

Advantages: A nice and neat solution, charges the Ipod, can be transferred between vehicles easily
Disadvantages: The cradle may get in the way - depends what car it is in and where the cig. lighter socket is

.... I have stuck my remote in the middle of the steering wheel using Velcro allowing me to remove it and place it in the glove box when I leave my car. ****Compatibility**** The Groove is compatible with all docking I-Pods including the nano, classic, video, touch and the I-phones. It is not compatible with the shuffle and other MP3s that do not have the docking ability, although you can buy an adaptor lead that plugs in to the headphone socket. But surely this goes against the ?wireless? concept? ****Installation**** Simply plug it in, turn the I-Pod on, chooses the tune and play. It is so simple that anyone can do it in a matter of minutes without the need for a specialist. ****Signal**** Once the frequency has been chosen the Groove will automatically default to that frequency next time it is turned on, which is...

Boxing News

Advantages: Quality, Easy To read, Likable
Disadvantages: Short, Price, Formulaic

...If Ring magazine is the world champion of boxing magazine it's big European rival is British based Boxing News that is now celebrating it's 100th year in production. It's currently a weekly magazine (though it's a registered paper) priced at £2.80 and released on a Friday ever week. Although the history of how it's become what it is, is an interesting story that saw one of my personal hero's Harry Mullan become it's editor for quite some time before his very untimely death, this review will stick to what the magazine currently is. It's currently almost full of regular features, like most magazines and it's opening article titled ?Fighting Talk? is written by current editor Claude Abrams and although not always a fan of his views an opinions it's often a well written piece to open the magazine. It's almost certainly based on just...

Review of Boxing News

A game for those who think outside the box!

Advantages: Gameplay, Duration, Puzzles, Storyline
Disadvantages: Graphics, Length of Cut-scenes

...Professor Layton and Pandora's Box is an excellent game utilizing the Nintendo DS's features to their full extent. Although I only briefly played the prequel to this game, "Professor Layton and the Curious Village" my initial thoughts on both game gave me a verdict that this game had greater complexity and although the storyline did at points relate back to the previous game, gave a starting point for new gamers who didn't own/use the previous title. The game is obviously, if you have seen trailers or know the genre, a puzzle game, as you hear this you would probably immediately assume a few things that would have been compromised in, these being the graphics and storyline. Firstly, the graphics aren't the best you will have ever seen in a game, however it doesn't rely on graphics so this is why the quality lacks slightly. Secondly is...

  God In A Box

Advantages: Can almost take over from your PC
Disadvantages: power brick, noise

...minimum) • Standard definition and high-definition video output is supported Well pretty much what the steve's at Microsoft have done is shrunk an extremely high end PC into a box that can fit neatly into any existing set up. Each piece of hardware just about is custom made for the Xbox which is where it differs from the Playstation 3 but that's another story. It is essentially a customised IBM Power PC which boasts an unbelievable 3 x 3.2GHz all three offering 2 hard ware threads, which to compare for you, my PC has just one 2.4GHz processor, so lets say its around 5 times more powerful than the average PC & its strictly dedicated to gaming and media while the ATI graphics processor can produce a massiv 500 million triangles per second. I could go on, recounting the 360's supposed 16 gigasamples-per-second fill rate using 4X...

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360

The Orange Box (xbox 360)

Advantages: 5 fantastic games in one
Disadvantages: none so far

...This review is for the xbox 360 version of the game. I'd never played any of the Half-Life games before this one, so I only knew the titles by reputation. But what a reputation. With 5 games included in the package, The Orange Box promises a lot but I'm pleased to say that it delivers it all...and more. Half-Life 2 picks up where the original Half-Life left off (so I'm told) and after a little bit of a slow start, soon puts you right in the thick of the action. I guess it helps to have played Half-Life before, but the controls are simple enough and well-mapped to the xbox 360 pad so even newcomers to the series will soon feel at home. The graphics are excellent, especially the exterior environments, with stunning water effects being one of the highlights. The sound is pretty impressive too, voices and other sounds fade when your...

Review of The Orange Box

Pandora's Box is addictive and absorbing but also infuriating!

Advantages: Absorbing game play, LOTS of puzzles to stretch you mind, not a run of the mill DS game,
Disadvantages: difficult to put down! some puzzles are too obscure. won't suit some younger minds

...Being a fan of the first Professor Layton game 'Curious Village' i was quick to pick up a copy of the latest incarnation. I was quickly absorbed into the game and the 'different' story line and puzzle after puzzle after puzzle after.... well you get the picture. There are over 150 puzzles in this game add that to mini games that require a LOT of covering the same ground numerous times. The Story itself is as you can probably guess by the title based around Pandora's Box (or a version of it), which has gone missing. As per the first game the professor and young helper decide to solve the mystery surrounding the box. There are some familiar faces from the first game and quite a few new characters as well. But the game does not rely on you knowing them, it just helps to understand the 'bigger picture'. Some of the cut scenes/ story...

Review of Professor Layton and Pandora's Box (Nintendo DS)

A giant of a box with 201 bricks

Advantages: really good collection of bricks
Disadvantages: none

...Duplo are fantastic bricks I recently bought a box for my great niece it is her 1st birthday. Ok I know she will not be ready to play with these bricks yet but it was a case of I wanted to buy something she would grow into rather than something she had already got. Duplo bricks are suitable for 2 to 5 year olds. This box 5588 is a massive green box tub containing 201 pieces. The box is a strong plastic makes a fantastic storage container for the bricks. *Duplo bricks They are made by Lego a Danish firm. They were first made in 1969 after the popular Lego bricks which were first made in the 1930s. The firm had its roots in making wooden items including toys. The name Lego was introduced in 1934 an adaptation of the words that mean play well in Danish or an adaptation of the Latin to put together. By the 1950?s the bricks which...
