Customer Review: Ok but not great
A reasonable game, but not a great vary of shots and very easy to complete.The ball dosn’t bonce right the music and uppiaring is rubbish.Could easily get better
Customer Review: fun but could have been better
The game is a bit tricky to start with as the control system is a little different to most other tennis games i have played. However once you get used to it it actually works very well, the idea being that the longer you hold down the stroke button the more accurate and harder your shot will be, thus rewarding players you position well. This game is at is best however when you can game link with other people. The only problem with this game is that in the davis cup mode you cant save it in between matches meaning that you have to play the full 5 matches in each tie which takes some time.

Its custom designed so the stylus tip is smooth enough not to scratch or damage your screen. It will work on any touch screen electronic device, eg. PDA, Smartphone, but will not fit in any storage slot of those items as it is sized for the Nintendo DS Lite games console. In addition you can remove the top of the stylus to reveal the ball point tip making writing with this stylus much easier and precise. This stylus is an absolute must for all Nintendo DS Lite console owners !

The Game Boy Advance features power that would have been unthinkable back when the original Game Boy was launched. Its 32-bit RISC CPU runs circles around the former machine’s 8-bit workhorse, allowing it to process program instructions much faster. What that means to everyday gamers is more intricate visuals, more simultaneous movement on the screen, and better sound. In fact, the often-annoying bleeps and bloops of old-school Game Boy titles are being replaced with digitised stereo sound. When you first pick up the system, you’ll notice how lightweight it is. It’s a little less than 150 grams, but a little larger than a deck of playing cards. The GBA’s wider shape fits better into a wider range of hands, and the screen is fitted with antiglare technology–you need pretty good light to play by, but you won’t be craning your neck and tilting the unit to see around the reflection of the light bulb in your screen.

You’ll also notice the graphics. Essentially sporting redesigned SNES technology, you’ll see things on the GBA that the big consoles do, such as scaling (making objects larger or smaller) and rotation effects–technological advances that will affect the look of everything from crossing a finish line to scoring a goal to crawling through a dungeon. The extra processing muscle also means you can network up to four Game Boy Advance units together, via the communication cable, for multiplayer fun from one shared cartridge. Because the Game Boy Advance system is backward-compatible, it will play not only its own line of colourful games–including such launch titles as Super Mario Advance, F-Zero: Maximum Velocity, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, and Kuru Kuru Kurin–but also almost all of the monochrome and colour games that have already been released for the previous Game Boy systems. It seems that Nintendo have wisely struck a balance between size, price, and power consumption. And considering how well the old 8-bit system weathered the decade’s technological storms, the Game Boy Advance seems here to stay. –Porter B Hall

Customer Review: Shame on you Nintendo! Shame!! Shame!!!
I am a Nintendo fan boy. I’ve tried to get help but it just gets worse. But even I freely confess that Nintendo pulled a dirty trick with the original GBA. The games were fantastic, Advance Wars was reason enough to own a GBA all by itself. But how were you supposed to play it when you couldn’t see a thing? The screen was dark and incredibly reflective. In most lighting conditions the graphics were completely invisible. I tried various ‘light accessories’ but they were all junk (even those recommended by offical magazines). But that’s not the end of my GBA woes, the D pad was blister-enducingly tiny and the other buttons were pretty nasty clacky affairs. The GBA was a broken product that should never have been commercially released. The only reason to own one is if you are a Nintendo crazed completist collector. Bah Nintendo, Bah!!!!
Customer Review: Brill!
This is a brilliant console and came in at just the right time!I was thinking if I found my Game Boy Colour(which I have) I would lose it on purpose to get a new GBA.The colour looks great and the graphics are wonderful.

Customer Review: Scrabble but not english
Good game, keeps the fun of the board game, but and its a big BUT the spelling is american. Colour isnt spelt color at least this game spells it like that. It allows some strange words, iii for instance and some very american abbreviations such as CIA, but not CID. Overall good but disappointing that a game sold in the UK doesnt have a ENGLISH based dictionary or at least a warning on the box!
Customer Review: It's Scrabble Jim, but not as we know it
Scrabble Scramble has some fun puzzles and word games, but the 'Classic'option is not the classic scrabble game you would expect. You choose 101, 202 or 505 tiles in your bag and are presented with a scrabble board full of tiles. You then have to make words by connecting the letters. From your starting letter you can then move to any of the eight surrounding it. Chaining letters in this fashion makes your word. So it's a scrabble game. But it's not a rack of seven letters with the challenge of placing them while fitting in with what your opponent has placed before you.

Spider-Man 3 [UMD for PSP] Peter Parker (Tobey Maguire) finally has the girl of his dreams, Mary Jane Watson (Kirsten Dunst), and New York City is in the throes of Spider-mania! But when a strange alien symbiote turns Spider-Man?s suit black, his darkest demons come to light changing Spider-Man inside as well as out. Spider-Man is in for the fight of his life against a lethal mix of villains - the deadly Sandman (Thomas Haden Church), Venom (Topher Grace), and the New Goblin (James Franco) - as well as the enemy within himself.
Customer Review: BORING!
Terribly, boring. Computer effects look cheesy. I wish Aunt Mae and Mary Jane would die already. Clumsy script. It’s like every minute you watch feels like ten excruciating minutes. Couldn’t care less about any of the characters and I’m a Sam Raimi fan. Tobey Macquire looks ill. It’s two and a half hours long. I could go on and on like this movie but I think you get the point. You want a great super hero movie rent Batman Begins or Xmen2. daredevil is even better.

Customer Review: Not an arcade game
People who bought this expecting an ace combat alternative are going to be disappointed, because in this game you won’t be firing missiles ten at a time shooting hundreds of targets, this is more of a simulation type game where if your in the wrong place at the wrong time your going to get shot down alot. I agree with others that the planes could be less sluggish and the enemy should enter the battle field naturally rather than popping into existence unexpectedly, But the cockpits and planes are very nicely done, and evading an attack or making a carrier landing is more satisfying for it’s increased difficulty, if you want a shooter get ace combat6 but if you want some realism get this.
Customer Review: Its not easy!
This game is class, once u set it on hard (cuz easy’s ridiculus) and figure out how to dodge a missile (not luck based, there are moves that work 100% of the time) and ignore the story line (its boardering non existant). its a simulation of military fighters n that, the realism is top notch and if u can find a multiplayer game with ppl in it, ppl who are better than the NPC opponents, ur in for a great time. Its a love it/hate it game that most people with the patience to learn to ‘fly’ love, the ppl bad mouthing it probably didnt give it more than a week. get it so i can shoot u down >D !
