Fun, good game, price a little high
Fun game. I give it a solid 4.5. Several people talk about how good the game is...Amazing! I like hunting and action games alot, and this definately seems like one of the better ones. Don't rent it, buy it. The only thing on the down side is the price. It was $18.05 a earlier today, so I left it in the basket. A half hour later I came back to proceed to the checkout and it had increased to $29.99. I seriously can't believe my luck today. Cabela has release a new game called "Cabela's Buck Tropheys," and has another one on the way! How can they charge $30 for the game when a new one has been released and another is in the making? You might as well shoot the bucks instead of spending them! If the price drops to $19.99, don't hesitate, buy it. Over all, pretty good game. If the price drops, I will buy it first thing tommorow. I recommend it to all gamers who like hunting, action, and outdoor games. And it definately stands by its ESRB rating. Now, go and get yourself a copy before everyone starts calling Costco expensive.

Not what we expected!
We were hoping you can just pick the location you want to hunt in, but you can't. Also you can hunt just any animal. You have to hunt what the came wants you to hunt, and if you kill a different animal you get warned. We are not to impressed with the game.

Wii Big Game Hunter
This was a gift for my adult son, who is an avid, experienced hunter. He breezed through it; didn't think it was difficult enough. It was a "deal" when I purchased it, so I don't know if the "teen" rating was visible or not - if I had seen it, I wouldn't have purchased the game.

Fun for our whole family
This game is educational and fun for several people at once. My children (13 and 10) both enjoy going on quests, learning about the wide variety of animals, doing tricks with dolphins, guiding other divers, taking photos for magazines, and searching for treasure and rare creatures. I like to play it as much as they do! We all like to watch while one of us plays. The music is beautiful, too, but you can turn it down or off if you get tired of it. Controls are fairly easy to master. Now the kids are eager to go to an aquarium to look for the fish they've learned about.

Endless Ocean reviewed
The best thing about Endless Ocean is all the different and neat fish there are to find, identify and learn more about. We learned a lot about fish that we didn't know before.
It is slow moving, but very interesting.
We bought this game before we traveled to Maui for a family vacation. We did a lot of snorkeling there and saw some of the same fish as were on the game! That was neat.
The graphics are pretty good. I would recommend it!

A disappointment
It was a big flop as nothing resembled reality. Characters were wooden, fish unrealistic. A waste of money.

Hurts the hands a bit....
You might want to watch out for hand cramping. But other than that small detail, this game ROCKS!! The grip is kinda slippy. When I opened the box, I expected to see a clamshell case for the actual game. Not so. All the game comes in is a small clear plastic case. NOT WHAT I PAID FOR!! There are a few songs that have been done Guitar Hero/Rock Band-wise, but there a some fresh tracks as well. Any Guitar Hero fan will love this game. Guitar Hero newbies will too!

Finally! A way to get your fix no matter where you are!
The Guitar Hero series has been selling in mass quantities for years now, captivating gamers and non-gamers alike. It's intuitive and addictive gameplay has always been its stongest feature. Who hasn't spent at least some part of their lives wishing they were a rock star? Guitar Hero gives everyone the opportunity to live out their rock 'n' roll fantasies in the comfort of their own living rooms. With Guitar Hero On Tour, Activision is branching out into the handheld market with a unique experience that still maintains the look and feel of the console versions of the series. The result is something that has a few quirks and inconveniences, but still manages to please even the most die hard Guitar Hero fan.

Of course, the most intriguing part of Guitar Hero On Tour is the newly-designed guitar grip, a clever peripheral that recreates the feel of the Guitar Hero fret buttons in a relatively compact package. The peripheral plugs into the GBA slot of your Nintendo DS and has a strap that allows you to strap in while playing. The fret buttons themselves are about half the size of your standard Guitar Hero controller, and Red Octane and Vicarious Visions have smartly chosen to shrink the number of buttons down from 5 to 4. Because of the relatively small size of the bottons, it can be tough to get your fingers to hit the buttons that you want them to sometimes. My fingers are in no way fat, yet I still find that I could hit two buttons with one finger easily. A lot of missed notes ensue if I don't stay on my game.

In addition to this complaint, I've also had a tough time getting used to the grip. My hands are slighly larger than normal and try as I might, I just can't find a "normal" way to hold the grip that doesn't result in a painful hand cramp. Personally, I've started playing with a 1-inch rubber ball in my palm to complement the natural curviture of my hand. I've also learned that if I don't have the bottom of the DS pressed up against my abdomen, that my accuracy drops due to furious shaking of the DS that can occur when tackling a particularly rockin' part of a song. It's definitely not the most convenient way to play a video game, but I've learned to make it work. On a positive note, Guitar Hero On Tour also comes with a special pick-shaped stylus that works perfectly. I literally could not imagine playing this game with a regular DS stylus.

The song list on the game is not my favorite collection of tunes, but for the casual crowd that the Ninendo DS seems to attract, I can see how it would be a smart move for the developers. The better tracks on the game include "Anna Molly" by Incubus, "Helicopter" by Bloc Party, and Stevie Ray Vaughn's "Pride and Joy." The balance things out (or cater to the casual folks), there's also Smash Mouth's "Rock Star" and Blink 182's "All the Small Things." It's not a terrible collection of songs by any means, but not nearly as challenging as its console brethren. Of course, this is also probably related to the guitar grip, which limits your ability to "rock out" as fluidly as you would normally. In addition, the songs have been compressed to fit them all on the DS cartridge. That results in less than stellar sound quality obviously, and headphones don't really fix the problem at all. Still, with 25 songs (most of them master tracks, most of them unique to this version of Guitar Hero), there's not a whole lot to complain about with the songs.

Looking at Vicarious Visions' past games, I was a little skeptical of how the development team could do with the Guitar Hero franchise on a handheld. But they have far surpassed my expectations with this game! Over a year of development, testing, and tweaking have resulted in a handheld game that truly does feel like Guitar Hero! All the staple features of the game are there: career mode, the shop, quickplay, and co-op multiplayer via local wireless. This version also introduces the guitar duel feature which is similar to battle mode on Guitar Hero 3. Players can play in this mode against the CPU or against other players using local wireless connection. Unfortunately, there is no option for online play, but that's not entirely surprising considering the lag problems with Nintendo's Wif-Fi Connect service.

The strumming motion that players are required to make over the DS touch screen feels entirely natural, and really adds a new level of excitement to the franchise. To whammy, players simply hold out the note with the fret keys and move the pick back and forth over the screen. I've run into the problem a few times where the note will end in mid-whammy, which then turns my fast whammy into a frantic strum and a whole lot of missed notes. A small oversight, but players should be able to adapt and correct themselves in no time! I was also a bit disappointed that the game doesn't come with its own standard-sized DS box, only a small case about the size of the cartridge itself. Considering how often I lose things, and how small the cartridge is, this can't bode well.

But for the most part, Guitar Hero On Tour is still a fun handheld version of an incredibly addictive game. The console versions of Guitar Hero focus on recreating the feel of playing a guitar. This version focuses more on recreating the feel of playing Guitar Hero, rather than the guitar. There is a bit of a learning curve, even for seasoned Gutar Heroes. Personally, I hopped right into Expert and was able to get 4 or 5 star scores by the the 5th song or so. There are a few hurdles to jump over, and a few quirks to deal with, but Guitar Hero On Tour is a great way to get your Guitar Hero fix no matter where you are! For me, it was totally worth the purchase!

7 out of 10 Stars

Did You Wonder if it Was Even Possible?
Guitar Hero: On Tour- 4.5 Stars (rounds up to 5)
Wow. When this game was announced last fall, many speculations were running through my mind, wondering if it was even possible. IT WAS. The team's work payed off with GH:OT, making it as close as physically possible to the console versions. Between the great graphics, awesome sound, best (and largest) song selection for DS, and near perfect controls, for $50, you can't go wrong with this purchase.
Considering the maximum gamecard capacity, this game is packed to the rim with features, unlockables, modes, and tracks. Guitar duels are a riot (especialy in multiplayer), career mode is short, but sweet, and just the controls themselves are fun. Although many may ridecule the song selections, I rather enjoy nearly every song (yes, even 'All Star').
Unfortunately, it does have a couple of annoying setbacks. As enjoyable as the Guitar Grip may be, when into a Guitar Hero frenzy, your hand, fingers, and wrist will cramp unforgivably, forcing you to rest. Also, after playing a song or two, the guitar grip seems to start to gradually slip out of my DS (the same goes for your pick during a long song). And as much as the team has already given to us, and expansion slot for extra songs would have been nice.Perhaps we'll see these fixed for the FALL edition of GHDS.
And yet, despite these gripes, I just LOVE this game. When it come to the Music/Rythm genre on the DS, no other game can top this one. Yet.

Don't bother.
I thought this would simulate the sport games better, but they don't. Tennis has blue light. Others are iffy, at best.

Just OK... In fact not so good.
The hole that passes the wrist strap is too narrow for the original Nintendo wrist strap which has wide latch.
The remote does not feel well secured in the handle.
The silly tennis racket light feature needs two AAA batteries, but the battery door is so flimsy that the batteries fly off from hard swings!
Of course the remote infrared receiver is completely blocked.
The clear cover does not hold on the remote at all and falls off.

Wii Grand Slam Sports Pack
This set is a great value for money. You don't really need the sports accesories in order to play, but it enhances the game experience overall and children get a better sense of how it may be in real life (particularly with baseball and golf)

The good Protective
It is a good product, good material and very comfortable despite being a simple article. I recommend

How can I review a product I never received?
Purchased the wii-mote sleeve but I never received it. Sent emails to the seller but got no replies. I am disappointed that this transaction was never completed.

Great bargain and functional too
These silicone skins are a great bargain for your Wii controllers. They go on and off easily, and the controller cover has an opening on the end so then nunchuck connection is easy. It also makes it a cinch to put on and off a charger. The comfortable grips make playing for an extended period of time more enjoyable. I was not disappointed in this purchase, I would recommend them.

The finishers can really bring out the masochist in you. I'm currently on master ninja having played the 1st 3 difficulties. The enemy AI is really intelligent that they'll adjust to always find the most effective way to take out Ryu, most of the time thats resorting to cheap tactics such as 6 enemies aggressively attacking you up front(2 of them looking for an unblockable throw while the remaining 4 relentlessly executes combos) and the remaining enemies stay in the back throwing shuriken after shuriken that explode. You will constantly be attacked as soon as you walk through a door without even sighting an enemy, constant cheap shots like this along with the camera looking at everything but the action will be more than enough to frustrate the avg. gamer. There is no theater mode/concept art, or anything of that nature upon completing the game. The unlockables include costumes(1 per difficulty) and these are color variants not even new costumes. This game seemed like a rushed product, but even after dying so many times you'll still keep playing because the combat was so well made.

Has a few things wrong.
OK, I agree - the camera angles and stuff are bad at times.

But, My 5 yr old loves it. We have the Star Wars Lego game and this one might not be as good as it.....but we still like it. Have had a good time as a family doing the "treasure hunts" (as my son calls them). We have learn to work well as a family with it when playing in 2 player mode.

I will be ready for Batman when it comes out!

It's better than a pit full of snakes... much better.
For anyone who has played the LEGO Star Wars games, you already know what to expect with LEGO Indiana Jones and you know already whether or not you like the game. It's more of the same with a different theme, which is good as far as I'm concerned. The big difference is there is more platforming and puzzle solving and slightly less combat. The difficulty level has also been ratcheted up a notch or two, which I also see as a good thing.

For everyone else who hasn't played the previous LEGO adventure games, here's the scoop. The game has three adventures based off of each of the original three Indiana Jones films. Except everything is made with LEGOs instead. Each adventure has six levels. Gameplay primarily consists of platforming and puzzle solving with a fair mix of beat-up-style combat to spice things up. The game supports one or two players who can play in co-op mode at any time. All that needs to happen is a second player picks up the controller and jumps into the action. Players have an infinite number of lives, so it's pretty easy to slog through the game even if you aren't that good at it. That isn't to say that the game isn't challenging because there are some tough puzzles and jumps gamers are expected to make, but you'll eventually get through everything without seeing a GAME OVER message because you can keep trying over and over until you succeed. This makes it a perfect family game where younger children can play alongside an adult without experiencing much frustration. In one-player mode, the computer takes control of the other character, which the player can switch to at any time.

The Good:
* Intuitive gameplay. Pretty much anybody can pick the controls up and adventure like a pro within minutes.
* Drop-in Co-op Gameplay
* Lots of unlockables. The replay value is very high with over 60 unlockable characters and nifty features and modes to unlock.
* Clever and entertaining cut scenes that parallel the movies. Fans of the movies will likely enjoy the humor and the character's personalities have been portrayed very well.

The Bad:
* It's a fairly short story (8-10 hours to complete) if you don't care about unlockable content. Gameplay extends much longer if you try to unlock all the hidden content.
* Enemies frequently have projectiles and you're left with your fists. Expect to get shot when you bring a whip to gunfight.
* The water effects on the Wii version are downright bland for no good reason because the rest of the graphics in the game are pretty solid. The Wii hardware is capable of producing better looking water effects and it's been done before. A minor complaint, but still valid.
* Multi-player camera control is kind of wonky and it's easy to die in some areas because the camera will favor one player over the other. But you since everyone has infinite lives so it isn't much of a problem.

Overall, I highly recommend LEGO Indiana Jones. It's a good family game, fans of the movies should like it, and it's a must-have title if you have enjoyed the other LEGO adventure games. If you have an XBox 360 or a PS3 in your home, you may want to consider buying it for one of those other consoles for the better graphics. Otherwise the gameplay on each of the consoles feels pretty much identical based off my experience with the first few levels.

SO COOL!
i played the demo and it is just plain AWSOME!

pros:
play as indy and a ton of other chars
use your whip on almost anything!
willy scott can SCREAM and break glass
small round is so adorable!
other special abilities include useing magic on statues to make them do something (thugee) indys dad can read stuff and you can follow a pattern to onlock a secret

and there is this thing called a mailslot. you can pick up the mail box and put it in the big mail box!

and i think that is all. no cons!

Customer Reviews
Wow! I got this game for the Wii with low expectations since I have seen other pinball games converted for the PC and was always disappointed with those prior versions. Once I received this game, I was blown away. This has been one of our favorite games. I knew there were "real" pinball tables converted for this, but did not realize that one of my all-time favorites was in the package. I would play Pinbot for hours upon upon hours and when I saw it included, I jumped right to it. The only con with this game is the inability to set the table view before releasing the ball. Other than that, if you enjoyed playing old school pinball, then I highly recommend this game.
Brings back lots of memories - very realistic While some of these games pre-date the pinball addiction of adolescence and are very basic games that were boring then, there are some fantastic games in this bundle; some I even forgot I loved since it was so long ago that I played them for hours on end. Whirlwind, Taxi and Black Knight are the three best games on the disk. Those three alone make it worth the price of admission to this arcade. There are some other good ones and some that were pretty basic and boring back then and still are in digital form. It would be great to see more pinball games available for the WII - Earthshaker, Cyclone (played virtually every day after school in high school!), Adam's Family, Who Dunnit, Rocky & Bullwinkle, World Cup Soccer, Elvira, Eight Ball Deluxe and there's got to be more. Anyway, awesome disk and a steal at $20 so if you love old school pinball, don't hesitate to buy this!
Own two pinball games Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection We own this game and the 3-D pinball game. Of the two, this is our favorite by far. My husband was hooked on Gorgar as a teen and said the Wii version has the same game features as the actual pinball machine. We have younger friends who grew up without knowing the joy of a real pinball machine. They're now hooked on this game and the four of us have great tournaments. My only regret is the number of pinball machines represented; one can never have too many pinballs! :)

Army of Two
The previews are awesome but the game play is very difficult. Just walking around is a task. I do not recommend this game. Gears of War or Call of Duty 4 are sooo much better.

Fun....but not so fun
When I saw the trailer of this game, I was like hell ya, I am gonna buy this game. This is probably my most anticipated game of this year. As usual, I preordered it and go the code. I was so excited to play the game so I played it with my cousin once I got the game. At first, I was like this is AMAZING!!! One reason is because this game is one of the few intensively co op game for the xbox 360. I played for several hours on professional and i found out something.....The game is getting boring.
So i took a break and came back afterwards. It was once again fun...for another little while. After i beat the game, i never played it again, not even once.
The major disappointment i have for this game is that it has no replay value. You "NEED" another friend to play vs mode and the thing is the customization of the weapons, which is supposedly to be the most special thing in this game, isn't even that great. The story was weird because they skipped alot of part.
I think I am dissapointed cuz i've been expecting this game way too much. If you want a coop game, this game is definitely worth it but if you want to have a game with replayable value, this game is only good for renting. It all depends on you!!!

Tremendous potential...poor followthrough
the marketing and online play designers for this game have seriously dropped the ball on helping this game realize its potential. the campaign mode game play and dialog are rather enjoyable. sets the stage for some serious online versus play, but having to pay to download the slayer maps makes it less than desirable and the setup screens are confusing and not user friendly.

PS3 Remote
I use this remote pretty often. If you've got a PS3 the you'd better get it.

PS3 REMOTE
I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THIS REMOTE. I NO LONGER HAVE TO GUESS WHICH BOTTON I NEED TO PUSH. IT WORKS GREAT.

Blu-Ray Remote-PS3
This is one of the best products ever released for a video game system. The PS3 is by far the most advanced and feature-rich game system on the market today, shrinking the X-box 360 and leaving it in its dust!

If there is to be one problem to be found with the Blu-ray remote it is that it does not have a back light! This can make it very difficult to use at night, especially since it has ALOT of buttons!

Other than that I reccomned this to anyone with a PS3 that likes to use thier system to watch Blu-rays or regular DVD's.

Ghost Squad for Nintendo Wii
This is a fun shooter, although quite short. It's a perfect port of the arcade game. Only three levels to play.... Not a whole lot of replay value.

Would be more fun if 2-player actually worked
I bought this game specifically for the two player co-op. Imagine my frustration when the game simply refuses to recognize another wiimote. Even though our extra wiimotes are fully charged, calibrated, and in fact often used in Wii Play and Wii Sports, when it comes to this game it's like they don't exist. Efforts to have other people enter the game just cause the wiimotes to flash and then give up, despite annoying directions to just hit the "+" to join the game. A web search indicates this is not unique to my system, but is a problem with the game itself.

[..]

Really fun!
Though extremely short. It's an arcade game with 3 levels. That's all. But soo much fun. You go through them over and over agian gaining new guns and outfits as you level up.

Sometimes it will be night time and sometime daytime. You'll have fun trying to get all 100 percent in the game as there are different routes you can take each time.

With a gun peripheral ,it's like being in the arcade when you are waiting for your movie to start. Good game.

Ghost Squad - Sega's answer to Namco's Time Crisis series

I've been a huge fan of the Time Crisis series since I played the first one in arcades in the mid 90's. Since many new TVs won't accept the PS1 & PS2 Guncon light guns I've been out of luck for the past few years since switching to LCD TVs. Luckily Nintendo & Sega are here with a great game called "Ghost Squad" which is very similar to, and in some cases directly lifts (boat stage), elements of Time Crisis.

I never played Ghost Squad in the arcades, but there is an arcade port of it as one of the modes. You can have up to two players in the arcade mode, and up to four players in the "party" mode. I have played both with another player, and it was a blast to play. My cousin and I got a great blast out of accidentally killing hostages in the stages where the jump out like the enemies. The more you play through the game successfully, the more difficult the game becomes, and then you start to unlock new costumes and guns for you to be able to select prior to entering the game. That feature is different from many of the Time Crisis games I've played and is more than welcome. As a matter of fact, it gives Ghost Squad a great deal of replay value!

Ghost Squad is definitely a keeper for a light-gun-game addict, but there is one thing the reader must be warned about. If you are expecting the accuracy of the Namco Gun-Con, you are going to be sadly disappointed. The WiiZapper still obviously uses the Wiimote, which uses the sensor bar. Any accuracy issues you have with the Wiimote, you're going to have with any Wii gun games. You can't shoot by feel like you do with the Gun-Con, you do have to use the on screen aiming. This is the only thing that detracts from the experience, but it is an issue with modern gaming and the Wii system. In that way, it does not represent this fun game, which is why I give it a full 5 stars.

Loads of fun for all ages!
This game gave me reason to purchase two Wii Zappers. The kids in the neighborhood love to play it even when they fail missions. We play in HD and Pro Logic II and the sound is great as well. Highly recommend this game for with the zapper.

Modern Virtua Cop
This game reminds me so much of the Virtua cop and Virtua squad games from back in the day, I used to love those games and play them over and over trying to beat my score. I like the fact that you can calibrate the wiimote to get it to work more accurately then other wii shooter games. I tried it with the wii zapper but found it easier with out it.
