I have loved Karaoke revolution from the beginning. I didn't think it could be any better than the 3rd version when they added the duets. This version takes the game to a whole new level. There is a wide variety of songs, so many different types of people can play. There are several songs that begin locked, but it didn't take too long to get them unlocked.The mini games are terrible and there was no need for them on the disk.

I found that it is near impossible to both sing and dance at the same time. If you don't know all the words to a song, it is impossible to read the singing and dance lines at the same time. Besides, it's extremely difficult to speak, much less sing while exerting yourself on the dance pad. I recommend having one person sing and another dance. This changes it up and gives you some great songs to dance to.I like the DDR games, but never have been crazy about the songs, so I really like the great songs.

Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The colorful graphics, catchy background music, and funny theme of this game make it thoroughly enjoyable for everyone. You basically maneuver Billy around a beautiful and lush 3D world, looking for and pushing/rolling giant eggs.It is hysterical when you jump on the egg and start rolling with it like a downhill "snowball".As you are either rolling or pushing the giant egg, you can destroy you enemy (sharks), jump over abysses, and crash through baracades.My 3 year old was laughing the the whole time at the funny visuals this game provided.As you roll over your enemies, this "feeds" the egg (or at least it's inhabitant), and the egg gets bigger.The egg contains an "elder" that must be fed and ultimately hatched.OK, its not "Grand Theft Auto" or "Splinter Cell", but its a great arcade game that is challenging and won't give your kids nightmares!

GripShift Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Most of the reviews I have read about this game have been dead wrong.THey grade the game as a poor racer.Though I would take issue with that, this game is hardly a racer.It is much closer to a brilliant monkeyball game with a twist.Monkey ball is way fun, but monkeyball as a car on insane tracks is incredible.THis game is a complete rip off of the pc game track mania, which is a wonderful game.THis game is packed with insanely addictive levels in which you have 20-30 seconds to complete the level with an almost instant restart if you mess up.This format is perfect for the portable system.In addiction to the crazy tacks you must complete in short times, you also have tons of fun mini-games to complete.Finally, if you are looking for a competent racer to compete with, look no further than yourself.Whenever you complete a track, the game saves your run a sa ghost rider.From then on you race against your ghost.If he is ahead, you know you will not unlock the next track.Bottom Line: BUY THIS GAME NOW.You will keep it forever with it's infinite gameplay and track editor options - not to mention all the tracks you can download from the net once you have beat the original ones.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well first off, I'd like to say that there has been a concern with the text in this game. I think the points made by others are valid and the issue of small, fast-scrolling text IS being addressed by RARE and will soon be fixed with a patch. The text issue ONLY affects those with an SDTV, HOWEVER if you have an HDTV the text is legible. It only scrolls fast for cutscenes, but in-game, when talking to characters, you have the option to choose when the next screen comes up. The only reason I dedicated this large section just to the text, was because the other people base their reviews on it when the rest of the game is practically flawless. The game doesn't deserve 1 star because of this and it should be higher cause I don't want a review the negate the average score when other parts are superior. Now onto the actual review!

The game plays by you building your own vehicles with the different parts you collect. At first the vehicle-building system seems complex and difficult to master, but after learning the basics, any kid could create anything! With all of the parts, you could make vehicles ideal for riding on land, flying through the air, gliding through snow and water, and even swimming underwater! Although the majority of the games were based around on-foot platforming, there are still parts you can run through and explore. Due to the use of vehicles now being available, the worlds are MASSIVE and detailed. It would take minutes to cross on foot, which is why riding a vehicle is a must. In total there are 6 worlds to explore, each comprised of several acts. Each act of the level is huge with characters and lots of enemies and physics objects to carry and push around. The gameplay is centered around using your vehicles to complete challenges, races, and games. Completing them can earn you notes or a jiggy which can be collected from a bank rather then "stored" in Kazooie like previous ventures. If they're completed fast enough, you can earn a T.T. trophy which are used to get even more jiggies. The whole point of the game is collecting enough to fight the final boss.

The characters are funny and well designed with well written dialogue. Some charcters talk with weird grammar on purpose to sound like they have accents or can't speak english very well.
The graphics are beautiful, all of the levels are HUGE with extreme detail, color, and characters. The game runs super smooth with no slowdown or lag whatsoever with everything appearing clearly from far away. The soundtrack is also incredible. The majority of it is borrowed, remixed, and remade orchestrally from older Banjo-Kazooie games. The sound effects are all brand new and sound great. With surround sound you feel like your in the world. The game is very long and has tons of replay value due to so many secrets and challenges to complete.

On top of this there is online multiplayer. You can play using default vehicles or custom made vehicles. There are lots of modes to choose from. You can simply race in land, sea, or air or complete in fast paced matches trying to destroy each other with your crazy vehicles. If parents are worried about other peoples online behaviors you can choose to mute or ban any disruptive or trash-talking players You can also set limits for how long they can play online.

Overall, the game is great for BOTH children and adults, will be enjoyed for months, and it's a great value for what you're getting. I highly recommend getting this game for the holiday season for any kids. It's a bargain and an unforgettable experience.
