Electronic Arts Sequel to “Active Personal Trainer” is “Active More Workouts” and is exactly that, a right work out. I am knackered.
Retailing at £29.99, this is excellent value. The Active range gives you your own virtual personal trainer to guide you through the various exercises, like running, squatting and bicep curls. All the time, your coach is giving you feedback and advice to improve your exercise routine.
This is always going to be compared to Wii’s Fit, but I prefer this version and it’s different take on exercise. This release is more pushed towards hard work and sweat, rather than prancing around in daft yoga positions. It is two player, which is great for bringing out any competitiveness with your partner.

7 Wonders 2 is from the same people who bought you Jewel quest Solitaire and Mystery Stories, Avenquest – a leading light in match 3 game play.
Match 3 games are puzzlin’ heaven and a favourite of my Fiancée. It was only right that she tested it out for me. If I said this game was addictive, I might just be slightly understating. If I said I didn’t enjoy the lengthy period of peace and quiet, I would be lying!.....

The Sims games have been around for decades, evolving in tandem with the consoles throughout the years.
It’s great to have Sims on the Wii, The My Sims games are predominately released on Nintendo systems and this version, My Sims Agents, is just brilliant.
There are certainly less buildings to build with gameplay taking a different slant – more crime solving and mini games/puzzles which just makes for a better adventure. Whereas before, it maybe wasn’t as much fun as it could have been, Electronic Arts have gone back to the drawing board.
There are elements of Lego Star wars in this game in terms of look, and My Sims Agents can sit nicely alongside such an esteemed title – it deserves to be praised for turning the rather redundant Sims series (on Nintendo) into a great action puzzler.

Based around the animated adventures of Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure ( DVD format - also available at www.play.com), this transfers onto the DS perfectly. The idea of the game is to help Tinker bell and her new friend Blaze find the Lost Treasure of Neverland.
Using the stylus to control Tinker Bell means the game is picked up easily. You tap on screen objects to interact. There is an icon in top right corner that tells you what you need to do next, to further ease game play. There are some very sweet moments in this game.
