With Band Hero on its way and released already in America it is also going to be released for the DS, but is the demand really here at all?

When the time came when the first Guitar Hero game was announced for the DS there was actually quite a bit of excitement surronding it because of the fact it had not been done before. This game with its problems and it is these problems that still need fixing.

The big problem with all of this is that the controller attachment for the console has not been designed very well so it actually hurts to play after a while. It has still not been proved that if you were to play this game all the time that it would actually damage the hands but when it gets to the point where you have to stop playing because of the pain then you know something isn’t right. Other problems like not being able to pick a favorite guitar like the Gibson Les Paul Junior

When the drum add on came into the game it started to get slightly better as you didnt always have to go around hurting yourself when you played the game, however the add on wasnt needed as you could just use the screen.

With Band Hero on the way with still no way of playing it on the newest console the DSi, have they really bothered to add extra features or just throw together a very tacky game? They really have not added anything to the game other than the ability to sing which is really only going to annoy the people around you.

How long is it before they start to introduce silly things like DJ equipment and a bass guitar amp.

The Nintendo DSi is a handheld game device and appears 3rd in the series of Nintendo DS gaming consoles. The Nintendo DSi was unleashed in Japan, USA, Europe and Australasia during 2008 and 2009. Lots of the DS Lite’s functions are retained in Nintendo DSi with regards to aesthetics. Moreover  an important difference is that Nintendo DSi has two digital cameras which can be included in the games or employed as a standalone camera device. You are able to start playing with a Nintendo DSi blue package.

Concerning the Nintendo DSi blue, you must initially be aware that when the DSi was released in Japan, it was available only in two colours; black and white. But as the console was released in the States, it offered a redesigned blue color in addition to black. Later the pink, blue and lime green options were made available in Japan too.  

Thankfully, the Nintendo DSi blue has all of the accessories needed to start playing. Usually it has a blue shell, microphones, audio splitter, earbuds, USB charge wire, screen protector , screen cleaners, styluses, game box and wrist wrap. However, this is not a fixed list. Various stores may offer you more accessories and some less, as quite a large number of these accessories are optional.  

Gamers must use your Nintendo DSi blue to set up the games console. After setting up ensure that the lower display of the console is overlaid with the touch screen, which is intended to register input from the curved plastic tab known as the stylus. The stylus should be connected to the optional wrist strap. The frontal part should house four face buttons, the directional pad and the Power, Start and Select buttons. The power wire should input from beneath the recess at the back part of the Nintendo DSi blue. It should also hold a slot for game cards and a couple of shoulder buttons.  

So, your Nintendo DSi blue has set up the famous game device, so you can get stuck in straight away!

As long as the game is nt Tiger Woods 09 as that game is quite possibly the worst game of the entire series. A great game on Sony's PS3 and Microsoft's Xbox 360 it still is very limited on who is going to buy it really as the majority of gamers prefer the shooters. However even I will be purchasing the new Tiger Woods 10. When the last game was so bad, why on earth would I do this? It’s certainly not because I’m saving money on electric golf trolleys that’s for sure. It's simply because Nintendo didn't make the great motion sensing technology that they promised and although it is great for kids the majority of the time it sucks and doesn't work as well as it could. With the invention of the MotionPlus attachment for the Wii remote the games wil actually respond in the way that they should which means instead of disappointing fans with numerous failing games Nintendo might actually be able to get half decent devlopers behind them to make fairly decent games that can use the technology properly.

This of course makes stormy weather a reason for golfers to smile with glee as they can simply walk downstairs and play their dream course in a nice summers day. The game does show a great insight into how difficult the game actually is from choosing the right club to deciding what the wind direction is and getting all the stress a real golfer is.

The newer edition that is due out later this year will most certainly sell more than the previous edition. As I cannot play golf at all I thought I would be the same at Tiger Woods golf but this is not the case as it is made so much easier than the real game and even if you do fail time and time again at least it is only in front of family and friends and not in front of everyone at the local golf club. You can scream at the course as much as you want on the game as there is no one there to tell you to be quiet so there! I used to be an assistant green keeper myself and I have to say it wont beat watching people who think they can play golf fail miserably and swear and throw their golf clubs but it could improve the way you adjust your swing as well as improve that important hand eye co-ordination.
The best thing of all is that you no longer have to charge golf batteries up, just walk into the room, pick up the remote and have a game!

There are several ways you can buy a car whether it’s from a retailer or contract hire. Games can be compared in the same way, but games aren’t out there to cost people thousands of pounds they are there to be had fun with, so what is the best driving game?

The main one that pops into my head is most certainly not what you would normally expect to see in a driving game. Easily the most unrealistic driving game ever made. Got to be in the top three of all time and not just my personal opinion, its Mario Kart. Driving games don’t have to be real to make them good as everyone will know from playing Mario Kart. You have a lot of choice in the characters, karts and bikes you can have in the game. There is nothing I have ever found to be more satisfying on a driving game than to see someone slip on a banana skin or get hit by a giant shell.

Forza 2 is a brilliant driving game on the Xbox 360. This one looks realistic and is brilliant because not only is it online you can customise every single last bit of the car from the paint and style to the wheels and engine. You take realistic damage if you crash as well as having to make pit stops to take in fuel and change the tires. It doesn’t just have the top of the range cars it ranges from the Golf GT to the Lotus Elise. The handling feels like it would when you are driving these fantastic cars as well. Going at 100mph round one of the games corners and you are going to see your car spin out of control and hit many others along the way.

Another great game is the more realistic Grand Turismo series. Always been known for its realistic gameplay, number five most certainly does not disappoint. The game truly represents the cars in the form you would see them in reality.

The same is true in real life. Some of the cars you can get are at quite affordable prices. You can get car contracting on pretty much any model nowadays ranging from mini’s right the way to Mercedes contract hire. For prices as little as £279 a month you cant argue that car contract hire is a great way to beat the recession.

Its all about comparison and whilst games have all the cars you could possibly want its just too expensive to buy a brand new car.
