Awesome
Put one in every room in the house!Portable and perfect, now you can have the enormous PS1 catalog in a teeny tiny package.There are plenty of features (see most other reviews), but I most appreciate the ability to toss a few games and a controller in a bag with the PS One and Screen combo and take it anywhere.The games look terrific on the small screen, and the whole thing fits easily into a backpack (or a large purse if you swing that way).

Best Semi-Portable System
Great combo, light, easy to use. The screen made all those bad PlayStation graphics disappear! Wonderful color and resolution, just not the best when viewed from all angles. I played games such as Quake II, Final Fantasy VII and Diablo and the graphics were smooth without jaggies like on a regular TV. Tricked me into thinking it was PS2 and not old PS. Plus you can read all text nice and clear in RPG's and such. Headphone jack too for good quality sound although speakers arn't too shabby. Plays CD's and PlayStation Games (that's a lot).

The PSOne and screen is great for trips and such. If you buy this item I would recommend:

1. PSOne Car Adapter - Makes device Portable. Plugs into any cigarette-type outlet in car, even to socket on airplanes (check below your seat next time)!

3. PSOne Island Blue Dual Shock Controller (Awesome color)

2. PlayStation Memory Card (Light Gray or Island Blue)

4. PSOne Deluxe Carrying Case (Made by various companies)

5. 1/8" (Headphone jack type) Camcorder Stereo A/V Cable (Ask for at any Radio Shack, they will have it. This is ALL you need to hook up a DVD Player, VCR, etc. to the screen's AV IN. You don't need any PS2 cables or whatever described in another review.)

the best psone
The resolution is good, I don't miss any details in the video games I play on it. It's got a headphone plug so you can play anywhere without disturbing people. You can plug it in to your television just like a regular PS1 without the extra LCD screen, and it shows up on both screens a the same time... nice for two player games. (Note: It shows the same thing on both screens, so you don't get different views of the game).

The built in sound isn't the best, probably like laptop speakers, but you can plug your headphones into it, or just use your AV out and plug it in to your stereo...

The best part is, in addition to being a CD player / PS1 game player, you can plug in an external input for any kind of video - TV, VCR, DVD, PS2. Here's how.

Buy a 1/8" stereo male to dual RCA female adapter.

Plug the yellow video out from the PS2 into the white plug of the adapter.

Plug the white left audio out from the PS2 into the red plug of the adapter.

And you're good to go. The screen should turn itself on whenever the 1/8" plug is in.

Sure you only get a mono/left signal, but if you can switch your material to mono it works. 95% of the time this should be fine. Or you can buy further adapaters & combine the left & right signals. ... Read more

Rip-Off
I can sum it up in one sentence:

It doesn't work.

It doesn't work with "Game Boy Color", it doesn't work with "Game Boy Advance", and it doesn't work with "Game Boy Advance SP".My brother and I were trying to trade "Pok'emon" and whichever Game Boy had the purple side in it, their game said "Your friend isn't ready to trade yet" or something like that.I tried pressing the buttons at the same time on the Game Boys, I tried having my brother hold the pieces in really tight, nothing worked.This link cable is a rip-off, and I don't recommend it to anyone.

It is good
It is good an it works, but you have to be careful with it becuase it breaks easy.

Does the job, but wireless is the future
If you want to enjoy the multiplayer aspect available in many GBA games the GBA link cable is definately what you need. (and who would want to miss out on the great multiplayer of games such as advance wars, zelda: four swords and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance?)

For right now this is the only way to go, that is until the wireless connecter comes out alongside with the release of the new Pokemon games. (the link cable is often to short)

Be forewarned that 1 cable will connect only 2 GBA systems (you will need an additional cable for each additional system) Also most games require each person to have a copy of the game to play multiplayer.

Another important point to make is that this is NOT going to connect your Gameboy Advance/SP to a Gamecube. You need a different cable if that is your objective.

With that in mind enjoy the multiplayer aspect of the GBA, it's definately alot of fun.

Works Great!
Plug and play, just the way it should be.Bettery life appears to be very good.The controls work well and the feel is high quality.Very good value.Being without the cable mess is excellent!

OK, but it might affect your high scores
This past weekend we received a pair of these controllers and at first we were thrilled to avoid the hassle of wires snaking across our floor.We played the same games we normally play with the wired controllers and noticed that we were getting our butts kicked by the computer characters.Out of curiosity we plugged the corded controllers back in and tried again.The difference in control and accuracy was very noticeable and our scores returned to their usual levels.We have our TV set up in our guest bedroom and at no point are we more than 12 feet from the console; we were also sure to use fresh batteries.My guess is that this particular brand of wireless controller doesn't have the same level of accuracy we've become accustomed to from their wired counterparts.We'll be returning these and trying out the Wavebrand before we give up on wireless altogether.

NOT a black controller which rumbles, but A.O.K.
The picture seen on Amazon's site has a black controller and the title bears the name "G3 Wireless Controller II," however, you will receive a CLEAR controller which does not rumble - the one which rumbles is black/silver or simply black, which is difficult to find. Anyway, I decided to use them with 4 NiMH AA batteries and they are great - it takes time getting used to the cordless freedom if your gaming experience has been "wired" for the most part. After a short while, you really don't miss the rumble feature but this was a purchasing decision I don't regret at all. At $20, less than the WaveBird, why not? Pelican makes pretty good third party products so for at least this one, you won't go wrong.

Good, but not the best
I have both the Pelican G3 and Nintendo Wavebird. The Pelican is a great value for wireless controller. It does have flaws though. First, Pelican's construction is not as solid as the Wavebird. Secondly, and more importantly, the Pelican does not give you the accurate control you need in some games. The Pelican's analog control stick is kind of rough, not refined. If you play Zelda, Top Gun, you definitely want the Wavebird. If you play Harvest Moon of Pikman, the Pelican will be fine.

From a Far Far Away Land...
I bought 2 of these controllers so far and I think they are great. The best part is that since the controllers run on RF, I can keep my Gamecube & the games behind locked doors on the entertainment center and my little boy can't mess with the console or scratch the discs. Also, the cord on the controller that came with my Gamecube is way too short to reach my favorite armchair. Being cordless, this is no longer a problem. Battery life has been great. I always have the rumble feature on and I think I am getting better mileage than the manufacturer even claims. My only complaint is that after a lot of use, one of the controllers seems to becoming very worn out. This is probably the case with any controller but I haven't used any other controller with my system so I can't make an objective comparison.
Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this controller to everyone that has a Gamecube. ... Read more

psone lcd screen was desperately needed
Very much needed web site. My children wanted a PSone lcd screen for their PSone game console, which I bought from EBay. Please do not rely on EBay for your gaming needs, when you can find a comparative product here that is just as good.Thank God for websites where I can find my children's gaming needs. Thank you.

monitor
I think somebody made an auful mistake.
I got the monitor ok, enough but there wa s no play station with it.
so laying all things a side i think that you get what you pay for. well i paid for the whole thing so I WANTT ONE SENT IN THE MAIL with no charge for it I am thorally disgusted with this.
if i dont get one soon or confirmation about it i will be forced to send it back

The worst LSD screen ever
I got this screen for christmas. I was so excited when I got it. I worked good at first and then the second day it broke. I was so mad. So I got an exchange and the stupid junk screen still didnt work. just yestarday I actually got the Intec Dance mat. That was just as bad as the LSD screen was. So dont buy this get the offcial one. If Intec reads this I want to say to them, You people put no effort in your work. You make horrible things. and I hope Intec company learns how to make things. oh yeah after the exchange it broke again. I was so sad because my mom payed $[item price]for it and wasted her money. and now I feel bad. Thanks for nothing Intec. Your company is the worst I ever saw in my life...

DON'T GET THIS SCREEN AT ALL!!!
I don't want to get this screen ever again!! about 47% out of
100% of kids don't like this screen. It had miner problems with
brightness/ hard to control with the color. I just read that one kid was correct on this screen. I got this screen on Febuary for my early birthday. About 5 mounths later it had electric problems. I turned it back.

BAD SCREEN !!!
When I got this screen on my early birthday from Feburary.I thought it would by any good but I found out that it was to bright and about 4 mounths later it broke down. So I turned it toysrus to get the standered LCD screen and this one worked better then the other screen. I had to buy the adapter for the car for this screen at Best Buy. Don't Buy this screen because it's a trick. The manager was very kind to exhange the broken down screen to the standered LCD screen. ... Read more

Great Mat For Beginners But Get It On eBay!
This mat is great for beginners.It won't last too long for advance users but this mat is a great way for a beginners to learn how to play.Some people recommend duct tapping plywood on the bottom of the mat some it responds better, but if you get a mat anywhere, I STRONGLY RECOMMEND getting one on eBay.Usually, they are brand new and factory sealed.They usually come in a sets of two (one for you and a friend) and sell for about $8.50 like this one (either in XBox or PS2) and $15.95 for shipping (The Buy It Now price on eBay is usually $8.50 but you can still bid on it to save a couple of bucks).Shipping for these mats on amazon.com are $4.49 for 3-5 day shipping and $8.98 for two day shipping so you still come out ahead on eBay.I got a mat that retails for $130 (its sort of like the mat that sells for $99 here; its more expensive because it has extra padding and it will last longer) for $20 and $25 dollar shipping.For hardcore fans who really got some moves and play the DDR games a lot, eBay has the metal dance mats with the bar (looks exactly like the one in the arcades) for about $150 (not including shipping).Otherwise, this is an awesome mat but if you want to save money and get one for when a friend comes over, get one on eBay (if you get one on eBay, search ddr or search ddr extreme).

...What a shame...
This was the first kind of DDR mat i've ever bought for my DDR game when I got it about 8 months ago. These pads are durable, but better made for beginners. When I play heavy mode songs, I slide clear cut across the carpet, and I dont even push very hard. I reccomend actually buying an official Konami pad, because these stick to the floor better and stay in place. Of course, when I always play against someone, I end up against a wall and my pad rides into it, while my friend is in place the whole time. >>; Do not buy this if your a good DDR player. This is for beginners only.

I really only had a few problems with mine. Ive had them for 8 months and it hasnt ripped or anything. So sometimes the sensors get out of position.. but they do go back. My two pads are fine. Although I usually have to drag my pad back to the other side of the room after I play one heavy song. X_X;

A Little Tip
If you're really interested in DDR, I wouldn't recommend BUYING a pad, let alone a soft one, even a redoctane. You can BUILD a double pad, just like the arcades, for less than 1/5 of the price of ONE metal pad from any company. [...] I built one in 3 days, and it works like a charm, no problems, and it works just like the arcade!

Dance Pad
This pad is terrible! 2 days after i bought this the cord broke so there was no connection!

This is WONDERFUL!
Ok lots of people say that this is not a very good dance pad,BUT! I like it alot. I have used it maybe for like 6 months and it has pulled through for me. Now the only flaw i see in this mat is that it is very very very very sensitive. Never ever ever roll up your mat it will break the top button or the back button! It has happened to my freind and he has not used it since which is like about 12 months.Also, if your a begginer plz buy this pad it will help you alot but you should buy Dance pad revolution two when you buy this pad.It will help when you get better in the game. Cause dance pad revolution seems to slip and slide a bit on carpet. Please listen to this review if you dont you will have problems believe me! ... Read more

a fine case for NDS
The case is a lot smaller than I thought. I gave my GBASP to my cousin so I can't tell you how it would fit it the case. But my NDS fits fine. It is a little bit tight but I guess that's better than not be able to fit in there. Notice that GBA games don't fit well on the other side of the case. I guess if you push it really hard, the case can hold the games (just barely). On the other hand, NDS games fit perfectly. In addition, you can stick something else (AC adaptor, more games...) into the pocket on the side of the games.
This is not a perfect case, but it does look pretty cool and can hang on to a few items (most importantly, your NDS!)

?
Picture?? Anyone?? A picture of the item would greatly influence my decision, so here's a marketing tip: SHOW THE PEOPLE WHAT YOU WANT THEM TO BUY, DON'T SIT THERE AND TELL THEM ABOUT IT. Intensive research has concluded that at least 85-90% of people learn visually, not verbally. So for them to picture how their DS would look in the case, they need to actually see the case for themselves, whether it be a picture (which would be how most people would prefer to see it) or driving up to a Toys R Us store just to see what it looks like. Come on, Amazon, I know you can do better than this.

The Best Case for your Nintendo DS!!
This case is the best one out there. Most of the other third-party cases are tight, hold only 2 games or less, and the cases have been known to open by themselves thus letting your expensive DS drop to the ground. But with this case, you get the best protection for your DS as well as a lot of space for not only 8+ games, but also space for your acssesories such as the AC adapter and extra stylus. This case is also licsened by Nintendo unlike the other third-party cases so its guarenteed to work.

pretty good
I bought this for my DS , (well duh?).anyway there's a bunch of space in there you can fit 8 NDS games + car adapter , or whatever you have for it , and it's licensed by nintendo too , I got the blue one , it's nice the black is also nice too.well i hoped this helped . ... Read more

My review of a controller.
This, my friends, is a controller.

It has buttons, which if you apply pressure to using your fingers, it will cause characters on the screens to do such things as jump, kick, punch, or shoot any number of weapons.

There's a cross on it that symbolizes the sacrifice and passion that went into making this controller. That and movement for the character on screen.

There's a start button. That begins the game or pauses the action, so that the player may re-evaluate his gaming strategy. Next to it is ally and colleague "Select" which performs it's namesake - selecting positive items of interest.

There are also, on the top, "L" and "R" buttons on the top - L meaning "left" and R meaning "right." Their possibilities are endless, from moving a character to performing moves.

A classic controller. The only bad thing is sometimes my fingers hurt A LOT after button smashing on this thing. Owie...

Awesome Controller
The official SNES controller is one of the best ever. The button layout is perfect for any type of game. The controller easily fits into any size hands. They are super durable. The D-Pad is very comfortable and easy to use. Heck, the start and select buttons are even easy to reach. This controller is absolutely perfect and a must have for your SNES system. Make sure you buy two of them so you can play with your friends.
Oh and one more thing: make sure you get the real Nintendo made controller. Don't buy those cheaper "new" third party look a like controllers. They stink.

Only the NES has a more durable controller...
(Gamer since the glory days of MULE on the Commodore 64 and Space Invaders on the Atari 2600...)

Not since the glory days of my incessant SuperNES gaming have I owned a controller that I could throw into walls, concrete blocks, and run over with my car (don't look so suprised, the Street Fighter II series instilled that kind of rage in all of us!) and still have the controller work as well as it did when I took it out of the box!I bought my first SuperNES system when it first came out in 1990, and I've put countless hours of use and abuse into the original controllers that came with it.13 years later, they still work... OK.Of course, they're certainly not in as top form as they once were, but I chalk that up to not taking care of those controllers as well as I take care of my PS2 ones (well, now, Tekken Tag taught me how fragile THOSE controllers are, heh!).If I had, I bet they would still be in excellent working order instead of just fair.

I've owned a couple of off-brand controllers with various functions and whatnot, and they just don't stand up to the durability or have the comfort of the original controller.In fact, the SuperNES controller is THE most comfortable controller I have ever used on ANY system EVER (and I've played games on just about every console ever released).The PS1 controller is the only other controller that comes close.

About the only complaint I have is the short cord length (of course), but then, if ANY game system controller were made as long as they should, the companies wouldn't make near the money from extension cord sales...

If you're going to play retro, make sure you go with the original.Speaking of which, it's high time I revisit the mystical kingdom of Zeal... ta ta!

A review for a video game system controller?
This is the standard controller made by Nintendo for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).This was the first controller made by a video game system manufacturing company (Nintendo & Sega, at the time) to have buttons on the sides of the controller where you usually put your index fingers (the L and R buttons).

Not much to say about a video game controller manufactured by the company that made the system in which the controller is used for.But I can say this:You are going to need some if you want to play video games for the SNES and if you do not trust off brand products.

solid control
I resently bought a controller for my old SNES because I broke my original one.In nearly 10 years of abuse my original controllers still worked.I threw them down on the ground, stepped on them, and even had the family pet chew on the wire.They survived all of that abuse, and still worked.The reason the one controler broke is because I slammed it on the ground, and it broke into a dozen pieces.Even still, it kinda worked.Obviously your not going to abuse your controllers like I did.But, it's good to know that you don't have to baby them.Treat them nicer than I did, and they will last a lifetime.Mine almost did. ...

Died once a month
My Nyko Net Extender died once a month. After replacing it twice, I am now in the market for another method of gaming online.I called Nyko's tech support and was told that they were continually upgrading the software because it was having compatibility problems with the PS2. I don't know how this works on the X-Box, but if you've got a PS2, look somewhere else for your networking solution.

Great product
When I first hooked this up to use for Socom 2 on PS2, I kept losing connection.I figured the thing was broken, but then I tried it for Xbox Live, and it works great.

BUY NOW!!!!!!!!!!
This product is really good so if u want to get wireless this is the item to buy it took me 20 minutes to hook up.

Awnser for "Do you need an network adapter?"
Yes!
ps2 Network adapter is the only way you can get on line.This product will allow you to play online wireless.Instead of buying the ethernet cord (or 10/100 cord) which plugs into your router or your computer.

HOPE THIS HELPS!!!

Great product!
I wanted to connect my Xbox to the internet.The problem however, was that it was in a different room than my PC, and I didn't have the money to start a wireless network.So, I was very excited to see this product come out!But it seemed to good to be true...There must be a catch, right?Wrong!

I got it, and am very pleased with it.All I did was plug it in, and then I had instant internet access.I've had no trouble at all so far.The speed may not be the fastest available, but it's fast enough for me.There's almost no lag in games, and downloads usually don't take too long either.This is truly a great piece of hardware, and I would easily recommend it to anyone who wants to connect a device with ethernet ports, without wires, and without spending $100's.I must applaud Nyko. ...

Expensive but fun
Steel Battalion is expensive but fun.

It comes with controllers to play the game. The footpeddles are sturdy.

In Steel Battalion, you pilot a VT(vertical tank) though missions. The mech controls well even though the controls are hard to get used to. You generally have allies in these mission that help you comple your objectives. For the most part, these missions are hard.

A flaw in Steel Battalion is the fact that there are not enough missions. There are only a few missions and I would like more. Also, it can be hard to bring out the controller to play the game.

If you have the money, I suggest that you get it just for the experience.

Too much cost for too little!!!
This game is a great sim don't get me wrong but if you have a PC Go buy all the mechwarrior tittles they are all rather low priced now and if your looking for a controller go find a Saitek Flight control system. With all of the mechwarrior games you get more variety in the mech you control, weapon loadouts, speed vs. armor. And lots more missions. Plus online fun with a mission editor. All that for the cost of this hunk of junk, and the controllers work for anything from space fighters, to real aircraft. Not just one or in this case two games.

Hardcore Gamer's R3jo1c3!!!
I recently purchased the Steel Battalion controller/game bundle and since then my brain has been fried.This is the most immmersive and realistic game I've ever played.Getting the behemoth of a controller setup takes a bit of mental effort as it's much easier to simply pop in Halo 2 and go than lug out the controller and foot pedals, but once it is set up, say goodbye to Halo 2!!!The game can be slightly slow paced at times, but only if your strategy is to make it that way, so play the game fast or slow, your choice!Sit back and snipe with the 315mm Smooth Bore rifle or run in at top speed (initial VT tops out at 115KM or so) with your plasma torch unsheathed and deliver a crushing blow!Be careful not to push the limits of your mech too much or you'll tip it over!! (Not a good thing when you have 3-4 converging lines of fire right where you land!)And with 24 missions the game has the longevity to keep you going! WARNING! - This game is not for casual gamers in search of a MechAssault experience!Make sure you are a fan of simulator games and can handle severe challenges!

p.s. don't get killed!!! (Bad things happen)

Graphics - 7/10

WAY OVERATED
OK, this is a great game, very unique and revolutionary, but please dont be fooled, this game is way overpriced, especially when u can go buy 4 other games for the price of this one.I am a seasoned gamer, and i decided to buy this game. It was fantastic for the first 2 hours, than it got old, diffuculty was raised rapidly, toward driving me crazy.
Also, the controller feel VERY cheap, i was expecting something great out of this 40-button controller, but it's just mad out of cheap bendable plastic.
So please, save your money, rent one, or borrow one from a friend..... or better yet, BUY ONE (i need to sell the one i have and get halo 2 ;) !!! )

Gaming Chutzpa
This game is not for those looking for something to sit next to the latest madden or Tekken iteration. It is certainly not a "flawless" game in the mold of Halo or Metal Gear Solid.

The title is uniquely demanding in resources and skill, and therefore it is uniquely rewarding. I would characterize it as a cross between an arcade game and a sim-- however odd that may seem.

Don't think of it as an expensive XBOX game; think of it as an inexpensive arcade game, with a very unique control system. I love it. Steel Battalion has been providing me with the kind of gaming bliss I have not experienced since Halo. Bring on Line of Contact. ... Read more

To small for anything! Avoid!
I bought this case as my first case for my brand new GBA SP the first day they came out last year (I work in video games, I have to have the newest coolest things! : ) I have a substancial number of GBA games, and I thought I could buy this to keep my GBA in my backpack with a game or two. WRONG! The case is so tight, even putting 1 game in the case is an exercise in masochism. You can't get the game out. Yes it's a spiffy color blue, and yes it's small, but if it only holds one game, it's not really worth it. What I did was bought a slightly bigger GBA case for the same amount, and that works just as well. The older GBA case if I had an older one would only hold one game with the case, but because it's the smaller SP, it holds several.

Advantages Of the GameBoy Bag
This bag lets you holdat least 3 games and your G.B. Ad. SP all at once and has a wrist band. So I give this item 5 stars becase it is very useful.

I guess it's......... GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is like said in another review a must buy. It comepletely protects the system from any danger or damage. It is definetly worth getting if you have a gameboy advanced sp.

NICE CASE
This case is the best ever.It protects the GBASP and it holds up to 5 games. This case is made just for GBASP and it is the best case ever.If you want a case for SP this is it.For the colbat, flame, and onyx colors get this one.for the platinum SP get the other case.Either way they are both good

A MUST BUY!!!!!!!!
Its a great carrying case thats very reliablr and durable and compact has everything you need and very stylish A MUST BUY IF YOU HAVE GAMEBOY SP!!!!!!!!! ... Read more

AV ComponentvrS/Video
I just bought the component AV cable from a 3rd party company and already has the S/video cables (3rd party too) . I've read that AV component it's much better than S video, and tha's why I bought it. But is not!.AV component seems to be a little better than standard AV cables (RCA). S video gives an extraordinary brilliance to images. Video Component looks opaque, maybe Monster cables works better. In summary:
1- S/Video
2- AV component
3- Standar Av cables (rca)

What's your experience?, could it be 'cause they are 3rd party?

Good component to have, lousy quality.
I highly recommend you not waste your money on cables made by this company. The plugs fit very loose and fall apart. I'm not saying shouldn't get higher quality cables like S-Video or Component they're great, in fact I would recommend if you have both the S-Video and the Red, Blue, Green holes on your TV to go straight to the Component (The Red, Blue, Green) cause it makes the scanlines less noticable making the image even clearer even if it's not a HDTV plus if you do get one you'll have the right cables to get the best quality. All I'm saying is either get the ones by Sony or Monster Cable cause the Indec cables are pretty shoddy.

A MUST HAVE FOR PS2 OWNERS!!
I just bought this item recently, and it works perfect with my tv.If you have an HDTV of course it won't work with it, but for those who don't have an HDTV this puppy is sure to make playing a PS2 worth your while. It allows DVD like appearance to any game that you play. And the price is great for such a cool product. ... Read more

A must for any Wallace and Gromit fan
I picked this up because I am a big Wallace and Gromit fan.(As well as the "Ratchet and Clank" style adventures.)

The game is enjoyable.You do the standard platform things of collecting items to unlock other items and puzzle solving.Not everything is straightforward.I did have some problems with the controls at first.It does have some occasional camera problems, but not as bad as some games I have played. (*cough*TombRaider*cough*)The controls are better than the "Futurama" game.

And it has evil Penguins.(Yes, Feathers McGraw from "The Wrong Trousers" is back.)

One of the items you collect are gold coins.For every ten coins you find, you unlock a special bonus movie.Wallace and Gromit fans will want the game just for that reason alone. (It was also the main reason to get the "Futurama" game.)

One thing not mentioned in previous reviews it that this game actually has the "real" voice of Wallace (Peter Sallis) and not some cheap imitation as many games do these days.This game has a great deal of input by Nick Park and the people at Aardman studios.

Some real serious work went into this game.The save game screens are incredible. (They are designed like mechanical displays.)

The music is very good.It is not just a repetition of the main theme, as some licenced titles tend to do.(In "Cracking Contraptions" (the Wallace and Gromit DVD you can't get in the US), they play the theme for every short.It gets annoying real quick.)

It is not a game for everyone.Some of the puzzles require a lot of practice.Understanding the controls is a big part of the game.Some of the more advanced abilities are not introduced until the second or third level.It would have been nice to know about them earlier.

I enjoyed it.Maybe it is just because I am a fan of Wallace and Gromit.(And evil penguins.)

It is not a great game, but it is certainly not a bad one either.

Great game based on a great series
Being an owner of all three of the Wallace and Gromit "shorts," I felt this a natural title to add to my PS2 collection. Just to be sure, I rented the title, and then was convinced to buy it. The game has the look and feel of the classic series (voiced by the original actors of the series), and Wallace's comments and antics throughout the game are very amusing at times, although from a strict game play sense, Wallace is more a cheerleader, as the player plays this one-person game as "Gromit." The game is easy enough for a younger player (my four year-old son enjoys this game immensely), yet challenging enough, especially in the "bonus" rounds of every level, to provide hours of gameplay for the "hard-core" gamer. The animation is cute and has the feel of the "claymation" of the original series, and the animals that the player must rescue in each level are cute, and are in no real "danger" that might frighten a younger child. The controls are straight-forward and intuitive (my 4-year old picked them up without a manual, etc.). Each of the five levels are very vast (3 sections to each level, plus a "boss level" at the end of each level). The boss levels can be difficult, especially in the last encounter. If you are a first-person shooter type gamer, or prefer more Mature or Adult type games, then this is not for you, but if you like puzzle/problem solving games with an arcade feel and nice graphics that appeal to both young and older, then you may consider this title.

Hours of Frustrating Fun
While it is nice seeing Wallace and Gromit, the gameplay itself can be disappointing. In one of the levels, Wallace is supposed to follow Gromit when you complete the tasks, but Wallace would not follow. I had to save the game, shut the game system off, and restart it up again, once in the game again Wallace finally followed Gromit. Also, some tasks can be very frustrating. Some "blind" jumps must be made from time to time. One good thing, is apparently Gromit has unlimited lives! I bought this for under $10. Pay more than that and you may regret it. For a cheap platformer it is okay, don't expect more. Though, as I said, it is nice to see Wallace & Gromit in a game.

Good Story, Untapped Potential, Buggy Gameplay and Controls
Pros:
- maintains humor of the series: Fans of the clay-mation cartoons will find the usual sight gags and banter.
- good writing/character scripting and characterizations: The writers took the time to study the characters, and placed good healthy doses of personality into them.
- cut scenes are well animated: These maintain the overall feel of the clay-mation animations and move the story along nicely.
- save points are fairly generous: Saves are possible at any time, although progress only really gets saved at certain points. Still, they save it in numerous, decent locations.
- good story: Chock full of typical Wallace and Gromit adventure and humor as they do battle against Feathers McGraw once again.

Cons:
- Bad camera angles: As seems to be the case in a lot of "modern" games, particularly platformers, the camera is terrible, especially during boss battles. At times, you never see the enemy you're supposed to fight or the next jump point. Boss battles in particular have you looking at the enemy's feet/lower torso most of the time. The lack of any decent camera controls exacerbates the frustration.
- Figgity and questionable controls: The controls aren't responsive at all, unmatched only by the control layout scheme and economy of button assignments in oddness. The R1 and R2 buttons, for example, do the same move (crouch), and the L1 and L2 buttons do the same move (tap to center view, hold for first person view). This is wasteful, as a button to better control the camera or another special move could have been put in one of the button places. Repetitive controls are fine for a novice gamer, but more control options should have been included.
- Overly repetitive gameplay: Too many areas find the player doing the same things over and over again. Some areas seem to be there only to serve as "filler" in the later stages, where the player need only do a five second interaction with a lever to move on. This could have easily been incorporated into a cut scene, and more of that good dialog and story used.
- Buggy: Gromit wound up doing an "unscheduled" jump clear across the screen at times in my game. I bought the game new in the wrapper. I haven't read about this problem anywhere else, though, so it might be a rarity.
- Washed out graphics: I had to adjust the brightness on my television set for this game, despite games like Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Halo, and other "dark lit" games displaying fine.

Overall Score: 2 out of 5. Rent it, maybe, and see what you think, but buy something else for the money. That's a shame too, because the story is actually pretty good. The writing is pretty crisp and brimming with the humor that made the series enjoyable. In all honesty, the story would have been much better served as another episode/movie in the Wallace and Gromit series instead of this game.

Okay, but not great
This game is not the cute movies you see.It is okay but it has many problems including the controls and the gameplay.I would say stick to a rental on this one. ... Read more

This game SUCKS!
I should of listened to the reviews on here. I dont really like games like MEtal Gear Solid and all those Ghost Recon type games because they are just too damn hard for me. I just like shooting and thats what I thought this game was, which it is. The problem is it actually gets pretty hard. There are no check points in any levels so when you die you start all the way back at the beginning and on some levels thats tough because you just barely get by on some parts. Another bad thing is you get killed very easily. Your health drops rediculously fast when someone is shooting you. Also the grenades suck. Everytime I throw a grenade it either lands just a little behind them and doesnt kill them when it explodes or they jump away from it. The first two levels make it seem like an easy game but this game soon becomes a nightmare that I really wish I didnt waste my money on.

Ditch Killswitch
Darn it!I can't stop yawning from the gameplay.Let's see...shoot, hide, advance.Shoot, hide, advance.Oh yeah, then there's shoot, hide, advance.This game is so repetitive it's ridiculous.I'd rather have forked out the money to purchase the commercials advertising this game than actually playing it myself.Of course there's no save anywhere feature, so if you manage to die just before the end of the level, you get to shoot, hide, advance all over again.I'm not going to even mention the graphics.Absolutely terrible!I got rid of this cheeseball game after I finished it and traded it in for a bag of rocks because I must be a rock for buying this crap.

Still, No One Lives Forever for Playstation 2 ranks among the worst games to have great potential and produce garbage.

Not as good as it sounds!!!
I will agree that the AI in this game as well as the graphics are pretty good.But it does NOT compare to Metal Gear Solid or Splinter Cell because those are stealth based games.Kill Switch is almost impossible to be stealthy.There are several types of weapons, but basically it doesnt matter because they kill the same.You have a sniper rifle that its worthless because you barely see the enemy through the scope and they still shoot at you and hit you.The blind shooting "advantage" really just sucks, you couldnt hit the freakin wall if it was an inch in front you.The story in the begining looks intriguing but as the game progresses you find that its just your tipical 'Im coming to get you for revenge'.The only challenge that this game represents is to see if you can outlast 20 guys shooting at you, other than that, it doesnt require any thinking.I am very disappointed with this game and I wish I could get my money back, but I lost the receipt.

The REAL Fast and the Furious
Kill.Switch is not a bad game at all. In fact it is probably one of the best shoot `em ups you can get your hands on. You play Bishop, a sort of Metal Gear Solid's Solid Snake x Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher with more firepower than both combined. In fact that is what kill.switch is - one big free-for-all GUNFIGHT.

The story is actually confusing and told in flashback style (some flashback shots are cinematically realistic). Bishop is an ultra-tech Soldier and who is married to Lynn Takamura - a Neural Interface designer for some weapons tech firm. Bishop was supposed to execute a terrorist called Archer but failed. Archer came back to kill Lynn and to take control of Bishop's neural technology sending him about the globe committing terrorist acts of violence. Eventually Bishop finds a way out from Archer's control and goes to take Archer down himself.

Having said all of that, the gun fighting is first rate stuff simply because the enemy AI is the best seen in any game of its kind. The enemy is smart and moves accordingly. They will take you down by flanking you or sending a grenade in your direction. One or two hits are all it takes and you will go down. So you need to use the environment and this is where kill.switch scores in aces. As you hide behind something you can blind fire on the enemy with several different weapons to choose from or you can lean around the side, sight someone and shoot them. The detail in each level makes this one an essential purchase for the XBOX user. It pushes the PS2's graphics quite a bit (now and again the FPS stalls).

So kill.switch plays like you would expect it too - run around various levels (there are 5 major levels divided into two parts each) shooting the enemy and diving behind boxes as you blow things up. Sounds boring or unoriginal - yes, maybe - but kill.switch does it all so furiously. Once you start firing and throwing grenades and dancing about the obstacle pulling off headshots with some blind fire you will see how enjoyable all of this really can be and for that kill.switch is all golden 5 stars.

However it does have some negatives. The story is simply very hard to understand and makes no sense. The zooms are not very deep on the gun scopes meaning that you do not really get to zoom around and see the awesome sights that they have designed. It could have done with better zooms. It was absolutely terrible that they did not make more objects destructible. You couldn't even shoot up things like tables and chairs. I didn't see a single wall blow out in the game.

In the end I would not really purchase this unless you like blast em ups. If blast em ups are your thing then do not even think twice about this review. Stop now and go pick up kill.switch. It is insane live fire from start to finish. You will get a bang for your buck. However if you are looking for a game that might do something other than that (forget any type of Splinter Cell objectives or Metal Gear Solid coolness) then I suggest you go look elsewhere.

Pros:

- Furious action. Non-stop suppressing fire.
- Amazing enemy AI. The best of any game out there.
- Highly detailed graphics.
- Blind-fire. A very cool option.
- In terms of action this is what MGS and SC want-to-be but are not.
- Cuts scenes are realistic.

Cons:

- There appears to be no screen size adjustment on PS2 version.
- Runs a little slow on the PS2 at times.
- Short. Really only 6 to 8 hours of start to end game play.
- No environmental destruction.
- Extremely limited objectives.
- Story makes no sense.

Excellent "run and gun" shooter!
Think up a cross between Splinter Cell's Sam Fisher and the aggressive firefights of Conflict: Desert Storm and what you would get is Kill.Switch! I'll be perfectly honest, this is not a game that I would be quick to drop fifty bucks on, but is an excellent rental or one to scoop up at the thirty-five or lower price range. Those who appreciate a good shooter will love this one! Gameplay is very realistic and difficult, sound and graphics are great! This is how video game combat should be, grenade a room with a frag or flash bang then come in spraying! I have found the enemy A.I. to be very challenging, attacks are very coordinated using covering fire and flanking movements. Another big plus this games got going for it is the re-use of enemy rifles (I hate it when you can't pick up the guy's gear that you just shot). Character movement is the only real problem I have with this game. The character looks great and can combat roll but looks sluggish when running, but when this is the only problem you've got an awesome shooter! You'll love it when you're running for you life from the first attack helicopter you encounter! I have never been required to use the environment so much to stay alive, it's an awesome game element and I'm shocked that no one has done this before; thumbs up to you Namco! ... Read more

Its ok but useful in some games
This is ok but it is only great for some games I warn you do not get this expecting you can play some games on the gamecube the only thing that can do that is an gameboy player for the gamecube but the only problem is that they did not put out any new colors for it but really the black goes well with the platinum gamecube and the black gamecube ofcourse but the Indigo one is hhorrible looking but if it is like in a dark spot on your floor or where ever you put it will look ok. I dont even know that it is there because it is dark in the spot in my room so it is good but the point is that the pokemon colossum game is going to need it and other games also so dont rush your self to get it untill a game comes out that needs it.

This Nintendo Gamecube/Game Boy Advance cable rules!
I really like this cable. My dad bought it for me when I first got the GameCube, and it's totally effective. It's real easy to install, and give you a whole lot of specials for your 'Cube and GBA. I have 3 GBA compatible GameCube games. For Hot Wheels Velocity X, you get more cars, for NASCAR Thunder 2003, you can use your GBA to manage the data of your car, and you can go to Animal Island when you hook up the GBA to Animal Crossing! You can also use this to hook up to GBA SP and E-Reader. I hope you purchase this accessory for pure GCN/GBA link-up action!

It's required.
Basically, this will be required for Pokemon Colosseum, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles.

It significantly enhances the gameplay of Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, and likely will do the same to next Zelda game (which won't be coming out for quite a while).

If you plan on buying either of the first two games, buy this.If you want to add 1 and a half-player functionality (rather than 1-player) to Zelda, buy this.

Otherwise don't.

By the way...

IT IS NOT A GBA PLAYER.YOU CANNOT PLAY GBA GAMES ON YOUR CUBE WITH THIS.

Don't get mad at Nintendo because you didn't see what you were buying, guys...

Good but does not replace the gameboy Player
The link is only good because when pokemon colosseum finaly comes out on December 4 2003 you can download your pokemon to the game but the gameboy player is still better.

Does not replace Gameboy player GC attachment
I bought this thinking it would let me play GBA games through the Cube. WRONG! I do have both metroids though haven't beaten Prime to unlock the original Metroid yet but I have a little more motivation now! Just so you know this does not replace the Gameboy player GC attachment. ... Read more

Here is how to use the cable
A lot of people seem to be complaing that the cable doesn't work. In order for your computer to recognize it, you must first put the PSP in USB Connection mode. This option is selectable from the Home desktop (just search for it). Have that selected and running with the cable connected to your computer and the PSP should pop up as a new drive on your computer.
You can go here (http://hardware.gamespot.com/Story-ST-11721-172 5-x-x-x) to learn how to transfer videos. For pics you make a folder in the root called DCIM then another inside that called 101MSDCF then put your pics in, but the have to be named like this :DSC00162.JPG The last 4 numbers can be any numbers you want. Not sure about music since I haven't done that yet, but I'm sure you can find info for that somewhere online.

doom to pelican
never buy anything made by pelican they make awful products that are of the poorest quality

DO NOT BUY THIS CABLE
This is a very low quality cable that doesn't work 75% of the time.Just use any digital camera cable (USB to Mini USB-B).

Works fine for me?
Had no problem with the cable transferred my vids, MP3s and Pics with no problem.

JUST A CABLE
i bought this yesterday,and i've been trying for an hour to transfer songs to my psp.It doesn't even come with instructions,or a booklet.NOTHING.just the cable.Like i'm suppose to know what to do,cuz i'm a computer whiz?A few minutes later it tranfers the song,but i can't even find them.just don't buy it. ...

Amazon.com Product Description

This is a special limited-edition, platinum-colored Game Boy Advance console.

When you first pick up the Game Boy Advance system, you'll be amazed at how little it weighs. At fewer than 5 ounces and a little larger than a deck of playing cards, the system easily fits into a shirt pocket without any sag. The GBA's wider shape fits better into a wider range of hands. The former design too often pushed the left and right thumb knuckles together during gameplay. The new layout is comfortable for all ages, and the center screen orientation makes it easy to see.

Game Boy Color owners will find the GBA's larger screen somewhat darker than they're used to, but that's because the screen is outfitted with antiglare technology. Like the old Game Boy Color, the color LCD is not backlit, so you need pretty good light to play by. Unlike that system, though, you won't be craning your neck and tilting the unit to see around the hot-spot reflection of the light bulb in your screen.

But you'll also notice the graphics. Sporting what's basically a redesigned SNES technology, you'll see things on the GBA that you see on big consoles, 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 throwing a touchdown pass to crawling through a dungeon. ...

Gameboy Rules!
First of all,I want to make it clear that I'm not giving this 5 stars because it's platinum but because it's gameboy.I would have given it 5 stars if it was blue,too.The point is that I just love gameboy.I have a GBC too and I still love it as much as I love my GBA.If anyone was ever going to get a game console,I'd reccomend a GBA.

WOW
this was a realy cool hand held system especially if your playing Golden Sun 1 & 2

Game Boy Advance Review
This is the greatest handheld system over. The game are cool because they come all other consoles too. I mean like there making the PS2 hit Grand Theft Auto 3 for GBA, Super Monkey Ball Jr. from Gamecube,and ect. It has a 32-bit processor and GBC only has a 8-bit processor. There are some sick accessories now so you can turn it into a tv, digital camera, mp3 player, radio, and more. You have to get this. The top 10 games are * Super Monkey Ball jr. * Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 * Golden Sun * Mega Man Battle Network 2 * Zelda:A link to the past * Crash Banticoot: The Huge Adventure * Crash Banticoot 2: N-Tranced * Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder * Spider-Man : The Movie * Mat-Hoffman's Pro BMX You have to get this thing now. p.s. Game Boy Advance SP is coming March '03 so you might want to wait for that. I hope you really invest in a GBA and a light you won't be sorry.
