Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain? (Nintendo DS)
In a nutshell:
The portable phenomenon that has taken Japan by storm finally hits the UK. Part puzzle game, part self improvement tool this is the only game that’s both lots of fun and good for you - and that’s before you even start on Sudoku!
The lowdown:
Nothing about this game is ordinary, from the price to the way you hold the DS while playing it (vertically, as if you were reading a book). The basic idea is that you play through a series of puzzles each day, for about 10 minutes, and at the end of each session the “age” of your brain is calculated. The puzzles themselves range from simple maths questions to spot the difference, memorisation and comprehension. All of the answers are inputted either by drawing the answer on the touchscreen or speaking it into the DS’s in-built microphone. There’s also a multiplayer mode for up to 15 people where you can try and compete to record the youngest brain age.
Most exciting moment:
A brand new addition to the game, not included in the Japanese version, is a special DS version of Sudoku. This works great on the DS’s touch screen and is worth the already low price of admission on its own.
Since you ask:
A sister title to Brain Training, named Big Brain Academy, is due for release in July and offers to “weigh” your brain and improve specific skills such as memorisation and analysis. A direct sequel to Brain Training has also been released in Japan but is not yet scheduled for released in the UK.
The bottom line:
The only game that really is for the whole family - from kids to OAPs.

Customer Review: Honestly - it’s good!
I got this game in January. I really enjoy playing the different games. You have to unlock certain games, like for e.g. there is a game called ’syllable count’, where you have to count how many syllables there are in different sentences. There is also another game called ‘calculations X20′ where you have 20 different sums to answer as quickly and as accurately as you can. The sums are easy, so one of them might be ‘ 8+4 ‘ e.t.c. There are lots of different games, which is one thing that’s good about it. Altogether, I would highly reccommend this game.
Customer Review: Great Game
I’ve only had this game a couple of weeks but I’m really enjoying it. It certainly does exercise those grey cells and is very addictive. The only down side is the voice recognition where you have to speak out the colours. Even when I speak loudly and clearly it will often not recognise what I’ve said. Apart from that it’s a great game and is great for children and adults alike.
Resistance: Fall of Man (PS3)
In the end it will probably be to the benefit of European gamers that the PS3 was delayed, since it will give Sony the chance to put together a much more impressive line-up of launch games than greeted the console in America and Japan. Resistance was easily the best of the U.S. launch games - a first person shoot `em-up from the creators of Ratchet & Clank. The game’s story is based around an alternate version of World War II where instead of Nazis you’re facing off against the insect-like Chimera in a war torn Britain (naturally you’re playing an American though). It’s basically Call Of Duty meets Doom.
The game doesn’t use the tilt sensors of the Sixaxis controller for movement but it does demonstrate the improved build quality of the analogue sticks, which previously made first person shooters difficult on the PS2. The tilt sensors are used in a variety of secondary roles though, such as when you have to shake off a monster or if you get set on fire. Despite the faux WWII setting, most of the game’s weapons are fantastical and, as with Ratchet & Clank, are probably the highlight of the whole game. All have secondary fire modes, from grenade launchers to homing bullets. The armour piercing Auger for example, also doubles as a shield. There are also vehicle based sections, including a particularly fun ride in an almost indestructible tank.
Although the single player game is well above average, the criticism about the sometimes generic art and design are not entirely without foundation. Thankfully this is compensated by an excellent forty person online mode - a huge achievement for a launch game and a very good sign for future online PS3 games.

Customer Review: Does not date that well
Note: I have not yet played COD 4! I’ve been playing this after getting it at the end of last week because I thought I’d take advantage of this game being priced at the budget end for ps3 games (good to see prices falling). First point then, the price represents good value at 20 even if the game is not outstanding. After playing UT3 for a few weeks this naturally felt slow and after playing uncharted i felt slightly miffed at the half-baked regenerative health system and complete lack of cover. When in a fight with the chimera you have to resort to time crisis duck and shoot tactics or just get in their faces and strafe round them. It’s pretty annoying to do the latter and then get battered by another 5 or 6 hidden round the corner. the game seems very gung ho but you need an element of stealth and that is frustrating in a FPS game. Otherwise, if you can get past some relatively minor niggles the game plays well and the chimera are easy to hate which makes it satisfying to blow them away. Overall, good value for money but bear in mind this game is roughly 7/10.
Customer Review: Not a good game for the power available at PS3
I’ve just bought myself the PS3 after been hit with the 3-rings of death of XBOX. God I loved my XBOX and suddenly that problem happened. To my surprise and contrary to my thoughts, the PS3 resulted waaay much better than expected. Super stylish, more sturdy, and by far less noiser than my XBOX (not to mention the Blue-ray and power potential with 7core processors). Anyway, back to the Game. Fortunately, I bought myself CALL of Duty 4 together with this. There is no way to compare. Although this game (Resistance) could be considered fun, it is way out of the league of what you should expect from a PS3 platform. Again, if you are into FPS, do not even consider this game. Just put a bit more of your pocket and go straight to Call of Duty 4. Simply amazing. The rest is all said. Hope it helps. (and once again, my thumps up for SONY, they did a really good job with PS3 and after such dissappointment with Microsoft, they certainly deserve the rewards.

Customer Review: G-pak organizer
I would have given it 5 stars but it can sometimes be a little hard to zip up. Plus if you don’t put a towel or soft cloth over your console it will scratch the surface. Other than that the product is excellent and I would reccomend it.
Customer Review: Playstation 3 G-Pak is the way to go
This case is really good for those with a PS3 on the go. I like how the design has the PS3 sitting separate from the rest of your accessories; to prevent scratching, abrasions and such. The way it was advertised made it sound as if there was a ton of room. Don’t get me wrong, I can comfortably fit 4 controllers, cords, and discs galore, I just thought it was a little bigger. All in all, this is a great product with room for everything but the kitchen sink. I still wouldn’t recommend playing from the case however, the PS3 just runs too hot to have anything preventing optimal airflow.
