This game series from Konami is known the world over for its highly realistic gameplay and incorporation of rational elements. The Pro Evolution Soccer 6 is the latest addition to this PES series. Infused with dramatic changes, upgraded graphics and a completely overhauled system this game is bound to impress you.

The most significant change is the massively upgraded and a smarter artificial intelligence system (AI).

The developmental team has refined the shooting system that allows the players more attempts at a snap shot. Many new moves have been incorporated like the capacity to maintain control of the ball even when going into a slide tackle. Due to refined and upgraded dribbling controls players will now be able to dribble backwards. The headers have been changed to allow more movement. Apart from the massive overhaul it features more balanced referees and includes a number of new national teams like Spain, Argentina, Sweden, Netherlands and Italy. The game features an International Challenge, the already popular Master League and random play.

Jumble Madness is an interesting newspaper word puzzle. For all puzzle lovers, this is a treat. This product is licensed and features content that is intellectual. Challenges offered are many and solid but presentation could have been better. There are too many cheating opportunities and this limit the game’s capabilities as compared to the newspaper version.

Jumble madness is a part of any major newspaper. It usually features next to the crossword puzzle and comic section and has been entertaining people for the past 60 years. Of course, it is still not nearly as popular or well known as Essential Sudoku or the crossword puzzle. The DS version of this game features existing challenges of Jumble madness. The interface is designed to provide a casual and streamlined approach to solving puzzles. You just have to drag and drop.

One disadvantage here is there is no opportunity to work from backwards as you can reach the final challenge only after you solve the first five words. There are opportunities galore for cheating too. All you have to do is to use numerous hints, fill up the words, go back and solve the puzzle. Another thing is the player has no idea as to the number of puzzles left to be solved or the total number of puzzles in the game.

Since it is a compilation of different jumble puzzles, Jumble madness provides for exciting variation. Jumble crosswords are an added attraction. Here you are provided with clues to the final answer as well as the first set of words. However, hint system is a flaw that makes solving too easy.

Jumble Madness is ideal for casual gamers. While the gameplay is solid, it could do with a lot of tightening.

The game utilizes the touch screen on the DS to do various activities from assembling Sniper Rifles to making Molotov Cocktails and hotwiring cars.

You’ll be playing in the same Liberty City that you’ve grown to love, but looking at it from a totally different perspective from what you saw in GTA IV. The most noticeable change in Chinatown Wars is the camera. It angles between traditional bird’s eye and the usual third person. The camera zooms in wherever the selected action requires it to. You’ll see the surroundings as quite flat at first, but when you turn the cameras around and take a good look, you’ll realize that it’s been rendered in full 3D, and is as close as possible to the console counterparts, with a few changes to accommodate the new gameplay style.

Progressive loading makes sure that you don’t come across any loading screens while exploring he expanses of Liberty City. Grand Theft Auto - China Town Wars is based largely on the Asian Crime Syndicate, and the other gangs in the city who are fighting to take over your turf.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars gives you a good taste of Liberty City right on the DS, with some awesome features to keep you playing. It may not be released yet, but from what we’ve seen, it’ll be worth the wait.

There’s a large array of DS compatible titles, which were inspired by movies. The latest in this category is the title called Happy Feet. While playing the title one is reminded of penguins sliding on their bellies and expressing their exuberance by tap dancing. Midway has beautifully turned the Penguin flick into a title incorporating the similar fun, joy and adventure which viewers witnessed in the flick.

The most alluring element of the title is its playfulness coupled with the simplicity. Happy feet’s levels are categorized into rhythmic and sledding levels which are exciting but suffer from dodgy controls. In the rhythmic levels in Happy Feet the player will thoroughly enjoy tapping the screen in time with the music. Music plays a vital role in the game that’s why half a dozen songs are taken from artists like Gloria Gaynor and KC and the Sunshine Band.

Apart from the contribution of these wonderful artists, one can check out the catchy play list as well. Two thirds of the game’s portion is occupied by the downhill sledding levels where you have to collect fish maneuvering around icy boulders. Players can opt the story mode or the arcade mode as required. The story mode actually presents 23 individual missions in hierarchy whereas in arcade mode you can replay any of the accomplished missions. Graphically the title is very sound and appealing like the flick, so one can enjoy the beauty of bright and soft colours in plenty.
