Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>This is a MUST have !!!!!</b><br />I read the reviews before I purchased the pedals for my boyfriend (pros and cons) which were very helpful in my decision.  The pedals arrived from Amazon on the day they were suppose to as well as Saitek Yoke and throttle combo. At first he had some problems with the brakes as some of you have with it showing at half even when not pressing on it but after taking the time which was only about 20mins he figured it out (he went to controls axes and put the check in the box to reverse). Everything works great he is very happy with the Saitek Pro pedals and also the Saitek Yoke and throttle combo. We highly recommend these products.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>great product</b><br />It's a really great product and I don't have any trouble using it. The only thing is that they don't seem to explain the knob in the middle enough. But so far it hasn't effected any thing at all. I highly recommend this product. </p><p><img title="2/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/2stars.gif"><br /><b>Great product.... when it is working</b><br />software compatability is great but this product does not seem to have the ability to stand up to any sort of use.  I was going through helicopter flight school at the time i bought these so i was fully aware of how to use pedals in helicopter applications. I found that if i went with more than 2/3 left pedal it would get stuck at the 2/3 level and then full left pedal application caused it to get stuck at full left. I pulled it apart to figure out what is going on and it appears that it is just a problem with the manufacturing.  I kept the left base a bit more loose than the manufacturer did and it seems to help alleviate the problem but i do have a problem with it from time to time.  My recommendation is dont buy this online unless you check the company to see if you can return a defective product free of charge.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Flight Sim</b><br />The order was delayed (not in stock) for several days. This along with the Yoke and engine control all work together. This delayed the installation by a few days. work excellent.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Saitek Pro Flight Rudder Pedals</b><br />Just being a biginner at Flight Simulation, I wanted to upgrade my experience from just a joystick. I read many reviews and went with what the majority of them I read suggested. I decided on Saitek over CH. I have absolutely no cons at all. Amazon was the cheapest price I could find,it was delivered in good shape by UPS on the day it was supposed to be. Makes FSX much more realistic!   </p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>2 of these work great for us...</b><br />We have 2 of these controllers and 4 people in the house that play with them. A couple of us play on expert and the others on medium/hard. We've had these for close to a year now and never had any problems. They lock onto their signals (both of them together) and show no lag whatsoever. They work great with all Guitar Hero AND Rock Band games. No signs of wear or problems of any kind on either. Battery life is lengthy. I can't recommend these enough for your PS2.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Great product and seller!</b><br />This guitar is works great and arrived in mint brand new condition.  This guitar is better than the one that came with the Guitar Hero games.  So far this works with all 3 Guitar Hero games (I II III).  We don't have the Aerosmith game yet but I'm sure it will be fine.   </p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Wife prefers this one to our GHIII controller</b><br />My wife prefers this controller to the one packaged with the GHIII game.  It seems to strum just a little bit quicker.  It's worked great and I'd have no problem recommending it to a friend</p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>No  Returned Email Response On How to Send Back Product</b><br />I have emailed this company twice to find out how to send back the product due to not needing it. They are yet to respond to it. They did email once but did not tell me what their return policy is. Very bad business in my opinion.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Works with Rock Band.</b><br />I have been using this guitar on Rock Band, and it works very well except for one problem. After plugging this guitar in, rock band started to randomly lock up during loading screens. This never happened until after I started using this guitar.</p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="3/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/3stars.gif"><br /><b>Nothing But Software ?</b><br />I received my package today to find that I only received a DVD-ROM CD and the key codes. Even though their company name may hint at it, I did not receive what was pictured in the actual item - was expecting a retail box version of the game. Did I miss something in the description that insinuated that I would be getting what appears to be a OEM version of the game ?  I just happen to be one of the consumers who appreciates the packaging and instructions for games.  I'd like some feedback, if possible.
<br />
<br />Thank you !</p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>Not fun</b><br />This game is impossible. Why bother making it if it's impossible. One unit of a certain type could easily wipe oot a whole frickin' army of another! OCH!!!!!!</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Overlooking Rise of Legends</b><br />I would implore those reading this to think of buying this NOT so much for Rise of Nations as they would for buying Rise of Legends, with a throw in of the old "Rise of Nations."  Rise of Nations, frankly, wasn't all that great.  It wasn't much fun, and indeed was no more than a Microsoft knock off of the Age of Empires series.
<br />
<br />Rise of Legends, however, gives you a completely different experience.  There are no nukes, three completely different sides, all with different tactics needed, interesting tech trees, a far more interesting economy than Rise of Nations--in fact, if you can get "Rise of Legends" from gogamer.com (if they get it back in stock or if you can find it on a ".99 Crystal Only" shelf somewhere).  Rise of Legends is a tremendous game and an even better long term multiplayer game.  So If you're considering buying this, I would suggest you think of yourself as buying Rise of Legends with Rise of Nations thrown in as an extra, not the other way around.  In all of the reviews I read, people review Rise of Nations.  Nobody seemed to review "Rise of Legends" where you're given four "Heros" each of which goes up in level, rises in power, can certainly turn the tide of battle and in certain cases (especially with airborn heroes) can occasionally take smaller locations by themselves.  It's a vastly different game from Rise of Nations.  That's why I rated this 4/4--because it included Rise of Nations.  If it were "Rise of Legends alone it would have received a 5 of 5.  Here it's a year later and much like Supreme Commander, I STILL play Rise of Legends multiplayer with my friends via Skype.  If you can, as I said earlier, try to get Rise of Legends itself and skip Rise of Nations completely, unless you've never played any of the Age of Empires games in which case it's barely worthwhile.  But if you want to reach THAT far back in gaming history, find a system that will run the two Kohan games and skip the whole "Age of" series.  I would also recommend Majesty and the Majesty:Northern Expansion, both of which have been on my hard drive for eight years now.</p><p><img title="3/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/3stars.gif"><br /><b>Age of Empires prequel</b><br />This is a 3d-that-looks-more-like-2d prequel to Age of Empires, the game play is fun, though a bit klunky. Good tutorial, and fun if you'd like an AoE sidekick, with a similar though not very eye-popping interface.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Great buy!</b><br />The reviewer who called this game boring totally missed out by playing only 1 out 5 of the campaigns. The Conquer the World campaign is fun, but yes it is the typical run of the mill RTS. But, the other campaigns have very different scenarios! For example, the Cold War campaign (my favorite) brings alot of historical perspective as you choose between propping up puppet governments or supporting rebel uprising, seeking appeasement with the Russians or going for all out nuclear war. 
<br />
<br />This game is a great buy, especially at the current price. I played it nonstop for 2 months and I break it out for about a week or two every couple of months. 
<br />
<br />Big Note: Don't lose the product key!</p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Good ole party fun!</b><br />This game is great to have around. It obviously is not a game you are going to just sit around for hours by yourself playing. This is a big fun party game. This is a game you can breakout no matter the crowd. You don't have to be "video game savvy" to get this game. 
<br />
<br />The controllers are overly simplified. The "big button" is basically your D-pad and then you have the four letter buttons. The buzzers are infer-red so they work just like your TV remote and are not constantly transmitting like the radio frequency system that the regular controllers use so the batteries last for a long time. This can come into play sometimes because you find your self not aiming the buzzer at the sensor that is included in the game. 
<br />
<br />Overall the questions and game play are solid. The box touts 1800 questions and I believe it. I have played probably a dozen games and have only come across a couple repeat questions. The announcer is funny through the first 3 or 4 games but then he seems repetitive and you find yourself just wishing he would shut up. 
<br />
<br />Microsoft has finally got the fun party game that they lacked the first couple of years of the console. I look forward to, hopefully, Microsoft expanding this genre and coming out with more uses for the controllers. </p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>SceneIt XBox360 Bundle - Different From The Original, But In Some Ways Better</b><br />
<br />As a long-time fan of the Scene-It series, I was pleasantly surprised wtih the Xbox360 version SceneIt?, with 4 Big Button GamePads.  I play several DVD travel versions on my own when I'm on the road, just to pass the time.  And I've played several of the home versions plenty.  But I just didn't think I would make much use of this version of the game, since few people I know are into trivia as much as I am.  Well, I should have gotten this game long ago.  This is great fun, especially as a party game.  Even people who are not trivia junkies will love this.
<br />
<br />For starters, the controllers that are included with this game are the same basic design that is included with various other games, such as Buzz and BUZZ Jr.! Jungle Party, both of which are sold on the Playstation platform.  So these are not Microsoft specific controllers.  I'm not certain who this design is licensed from, but they did an excellent job with it.  These are very well designed controllers, and at the cost of the bundle are basically free throw-ins.  It's very easy to click the buttons and selectors, and having the wireless option makes these even a little better than the wired version that ships with the BUZZ Jr.! Jungle Party Bundle for the PS2.
<br />
<br />Now as far as games are concerned, there is a nice variety of games that will keep a group of four occupied.  The best thing about the trivia games aren't even the questions themselves, but rather the question memory.   Basically, the system keeps track of questions so there are few repeats, which is a great feature for video trivia games.
<br />
<br />The "Credit Roll" game lets you guess the movie based on the character and cast listing.  This is somewhat like a video game version of "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" and can be very challenging.  But the "Child's Play" game shows you a slowly developing drawing of a scene and you have to guess the name of the movie before the others.  It's a little bit easier but perhaps more fun for a group.  There are also plenty of cool puzzles and nice high quality clips to enhance the game.
<br />
<br />There are only a few reservations I have with this game.  I feel like the game is different enough from the original home version that fans of the DVD format may not be universally satisfied.  Also, the difficulty of the questions is probably less, which makes this less fun as a solo game.  The real fun comes in group play.  You really need somebody to play with, and having 4 people would make this even better.  Of course, that's not a con at all, but just something to be aware of if you're buying this.
<br />
<br />I highly recommend this game.  Check it out.
<br />
<br />Enjoy!!!

Especially like that it comes with 4 controllers so we didn't have to buy anything extra to enjoy it.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Great fun!</b><br />I got this as a gift for some family friends of ours. They invited us over for game night and we had a blast playing it. I had no idea that the game would remember which questions it has asked. I lost every round of course, but had a great time.</p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 Platinum</b><br />I have run all 3 versions of Roller Coaster Tycoon and this last version takes all the problems and glitches that were in the first release.  It also has combined the two expansion packs (Wild and Soaked) onto the same disc so all games are installed at the same time.
<br />
<br />A work of caution though.  This is a very high end graphic and memory heavy game.  You really need a top line machine with lots of Ram memory, a fast processor and a high end graphics card with lots of memory and very fast screen rendering.  If you try to run this on a standard system it will slow down as you add rides and scenery to the point where it's impossible to use.  And it doesn't run with Windows Vista.  XP Pro is the best version to run this game on.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Tycoon 3 Rollercoaster</b><br />Once again they have done it, Great game , many hours of fun, keeps the children busy and intrested for haours on end.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Aside from some lagging a fun and charming title!</b><br />I am a fan of the RC series from its inception, back in my high school days, with Chris Taylor eye-bleeding Roller Coaster Tycoon (those 2d textures really killed your sight). The newest (and possibly final, pending legal resolution) entry has now been packaged together with its two expansion packs - Soaked and Wild, into one pre-patched Platinum edition. The cost of the pack is commiserate with buying all three together (if you can even FIND a copy of RCT3) so the value is pretty high here.
<br />
<br />The game itself is tons of fun, giving the player free reign to build the theme park of their dreams. Although a novelty, which is ultimately rarely used, it is rather neat that you can actually ride many of your rides from a first person perspective (this works especially well with Roller Coasters). Placement of rides, decoration, types of shops, research budget, ride prices, all are under the player's control - making it a micromanager's dream (you can even control the color of the ride and the color of the ride's queue). 
<br />
<br />My only two concerns are some technical problems and a general lack of challenge to the game's campaigns. It is very easy to reach gold tycoon in all of the campaign levels, although really this isn't much the point. The game is far more to play as a "sandbox" game. I had some lagging when attempting to place rides and decoration, and while playable, it is slightly annoying. Some users, with less up-to-date rigs have reported lots of lagging when their park sizes and guest numbers go to high, so make sure you have a bit higher than recommended specs here.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Good for all ages!</b><br />This game is great for all ages. The controls area little hard to figure out at first, but once you get the hang of it, they are really easy to use. It is really exciting to get to ride your own coasters, and having the new "autocomplete" is great when you can't finish the coaster yourself, or if you get impatient. My 10 year old loves it as well.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Fun game but with some flaws...</b><br />I have this game for about 2 weeks, and in the first round of playing the game, I found one important flaw.  There is no undo button!  It's annoying and frustrating to keep deleting the errors I make with going back and forth the trash can to delete sections of the coasters.  I end up deleting the entire coaster and starting over.  
<br />
<br />On a positive note, the game does have some great graphics and it's really kewl that you can ride the coasters after you create them.  I'm not a roller coaster person, or even a ride person persay, but this game is great - it's very addicting.  Overall, this game is entertaining and a good buy.</p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>great game but bad </b><br />i bought this game a couple of months after it came out but now i cant reinstall it. i usually do a system restore every once in a while but now  because of that i cant install the game so i cant play something i paid for. i thought that the game was great to play and very entertaining but now i cant reinstall it and play it.</p><p><img title="2/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/2stars.gif"><br /><b>I can't recommend Neverwinter Nights 2</b><br />If Neverwinter Nights 2 came out in the late nineties this would have been a great game. Unfortunately, it came out in '06 which is about 6 years past its prime. This game looks, feels, and plays dated...and I wish I didn't have to say that. The story is laughably bad! Your must keep this unknown silver artifact from falling into the wrong hands...and when you do find out what this artifact is, you're first inclination is to just hand it over. It reminded me of an old Sanford and Son episode, where Lamont brings home a priceless heirloom and ends up realizing he'd been con'd - except without the laughs. So, the story is bad, what about the gameplay?
<br />
<br />You have fourteen classes to choose from, but aside from a mage, most are worthless. Why worthless? Because once you reach a certain level (10) your character can't be advanced any further - so pick the one good class and let's move on. So you've created your character and are deciding what skills to allocate your points - it's all Diplomacy, Diplomacy, Diplomacy...maybe Intimidate and Lore. Why spend all your points on the social skills? Because your character is the only one who is allowed to talk. So just imagine if you built some powerhouse fighter with low charisma, you're not going to get very far in the game. So as you advance from one ambush to the next ambush, solving puzzles taken straight from Sesame Street, and talking to various NPCs, you'll either raise or lose influence with your other party members - and influence matters in the end. 
<br />
<br />So they gameplay is subpar and linear with really bad characters, what about the graphics? Like I said in my opening statement, this game would have been impressive in the late nineties and the graphics look like late nineties graphics. Dated, dated, dated. The best part of the game is the individual spells, which really is the only improvement from the first game. But all this talk really takes a back seat because of the horrendous camera angles. If you zoom in to make the game more appealing, your party will be slaughtered because you can't see the enemy from this vantage point; zoom out and you're stuck with block models. The only positive I can say about the graphics is when the game jumps to 3-d. In 3-d the game does a far better job than the lame 2-d models.
<br />
<br />Overall, I'm afraid I can't recommend Neverwinter Nights 2, and that truly is a shame. This game had a lot of potential, but fails to capitalize on any of it. I do see a promising future for the Neverwinter Nights series.</p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>Has to function before it can be good.</b><br />I hope this works. Amazon ate my last attempt at a review for this title. 
<br />
<br />I had very high hopes for this game. Neverwinter Nights was and remains one of my favorite PC RPGs. It was incredibly rich, detailed, and deep. The editor provided days' worth of fun customizing. 
<br />
<br />This title, however, feels like a regression rather than a progression. And I can't for the life of me understand how they can release a title that demands so much more out of your hardware for a game that looks like it was released three years earlier than the original.
<br />
<br />But that's not the part that bothered me; graphics have never been a big selling point with me. They're nice, don't get me wrong, but I'll take a game with great play value and ugly visuals over a pretty trainwreck. 
<br />
<br />Unfortunately, this game has neither, mainly because someone back at Atari or Bioware royally messed up. 
<br />
<br />Here's the short version: Despite having more than double (that's 200% of) the system requirements for this game, my machine was unable to produce more than 1 frame per second. 
<br />
<br />Let me repeat that. 1 frame per second. For those of you who don't play enough to make the connection between playability and frames-per-second, 1FPS is completely unplayable. Imagine loading a game that's way too advanced for your machine, and the graphics that would result when your computer tried to run it. That's the kind of performance I got out of NWN 2--using a machine built in 2007, attempting to display graphics that were out of date in 2000. Frankly, that's jaw-dropping. How could they not realize they were putting out such a flawed product when the original was so great? Maybe they got overconfident and stopped trying, thinking they could just ride on NWN's lapels for the rest of their careers.
<br />
<br />And now I just know there are some folks out there dying to tear me down to size by commenting that there are a number of fixes for this terrible framerate (since I'm far from the only person to experience it, it seems an entire small community has sprung up around attempting to fix NWN2.)
<br />
<br />Let me just head y'all off at the pass, there. I've tried them. All of them. Every single possible fix I could find, from modifying my graphics card settings, to game settings, to custom-written mods. The best I could achieve, after setting every possible graphical option to minimum and increasing the performance of my card, was 1.5FPS. 
<br />
<br />Skip this title. Get something that will run on your machine. Given the resources this aged-looking RAM monster seems to want, you're better off waiting to play this title until sometime in 2020, when 20GHz processors, 10 gig video cards and 30 gigs of RAM are standard PC options.
<br />
<br /></p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Oh Yeah!</b><br />What can I say?  It's NWN... only bigger and better.  My only complaint is the linear world... you can't romp off somewhere you want to go and explore... you have to follow the path set out for you.  Other than that, this game is featured proudly among my dozens of favorites.  </p><p><img title="2/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/2stars.gif"><br /><b>A step backward</b><br />NWN2 was released...what, in 2006? Plenty of games through the 90s and early 2000s were achieving things that made it seem that the ultimate RPG was right around the corner. That made it all the more disappointing when this game, with all its hype, failed to deliver. In fact, NWN2 seems to be outdated compared to games we were all playing BEFORE it shipped. 
<br />
<br />Long load times between zones? Hmmm. Sure was nice when I was playing Dungeonsiege in 2003 with NO load time between zones...in fact...no visible zone boundaries. That was three years before NWN2.
<br />
<br />Strong-arm plot tactics where the characters have no options? Where you can't even turn down a henchman? Can't attack friendlies? Can't decide whether you receive a stronghold or not? The developers would have you believe that such strong-arm tactics are the only way to keep the plot on track. Funny...I could SWEAR Baldur's Gate had a plot. It let you do all the above things. How long ago was that? I believe it was last century, right?
<br />
<br />Blocky character models with hair clipping the heads? Come ON! I don't even know which old game I should cite for examples of better character models. Maybe all of them. Seriously, this one was unforgivable.
<br />
<br />A "moddable" game where adding new content requires hacking data tables? How quaint. Years before NWN2 came out, I was adding new content (new spells, weapons, races, etc.) to other games by whipping up a template, tossing it in a mod folder, and firing up the game. If you are expecting to add new content to NWN2, don't expect it to be as easy as dropping a file in a folder. That was only possible five or six years ago, apparently.
<br />
<br />And is there really NO WAY to have anyone except the main PC take the lead in conversations? With all of modern technology at our beck and call, is it really, totally, absolutely, unavoidably, necessary to send the soft, squishy rogue or mage PC to the forefront of every conversation to take the full brunt of the attack when it inevitably turns hostile? Do the laws of physics and computational science really mandate this?
<br />
<br />Alas, other games have long since done infinitely better on these counts and many more. The company that finally takes all the good bits from the games of recent years and puts them together - and gives us the game we've been waiting for - will own the world. I have a feeling that, when it happens, it will sadly not have the D&D franchise name associated with it. 
<br />
<br />Oh I almost forgot - the story line. I see some people liked it, but seriously...a foster child with a mysterious background who turns out to be the chosen one...this doesn't seem a little...familiar?

<b>Product Description:</b><br />Pokemon Sapphire takes you into an immersive and more exciting new adventure as you travel and train to become a Pokemon master! You'll have to become a hero by helping Team Magma stop Team Aqua from flooding the world forcontrol of the water Pokemon! Special features like connectivity with future GameCube games Link cable support for up to 4 players Supports e-Reader Only for Game Boy Advance<br /><b>Amazon.com :</b><br /><I>Pokémon Sapphire</I>'s updated graphics with weather effects, amazing sound, more than 200 Pokémon with over 100 new species--as well as its faithful adherence to the existing series of Pokémon games--makes for a welcome evolution in the series.<p>   First, the game has a lot in common with Pokémon games <I>Silver</I>, <I>Gold</I>, and <I>Crystal</I>. For example, players can choose to be a boy or a girl trainer, an internal clock sets events at certain times, and the game's handy-dandy Pokédex helps players keep track of the many stats. You're main goal is still to beat all the Gym Trainers and become the Pokémon Master. If you've played the old games, you will be right at home. But not all is the same. <p>   The most obvious change is in the battles themselves. Now that two Pokémon can fight on your side at the same time, you can tag-team them against an enemy by taking advantage of the strengths of your Pokémons while covering their weaknesses. For example, you can now have a water Pokémon watch your fire Pokémon's back.  You can also attack more than one Pokémon at a time.  <p>   A whole new element to the game focuses on how berries are used in battle. And if you collect enough berries, you can take them to a Berry Blender and make a PokéBlock, which is a little super-charged candy that raises your Pokémon's "Condition" attributes. You can then groom your Pokémon for regional contests and compete for ribbons like "Best of Show," which will unlock additional contests. There's even strategy in how to best use your berries: pick too many and the berry tree will disappear; plant berries, though, and a tree will grow. You can also build a Secret Base in special areas of the game, which you can decorate just like you can your room.<p>   And let us not forget that Pokémon Sapphire has a kickin' multiplayer system, too. You can trade Pokémon, and link up to four players for incredible battles. The only downside is that you can't link up with the old Game Boy Color games. <I>--Bryan Karsh</I> <p>  <B>Pros:</B> <ul><li>You can control two Pokémon in battle <li>Much needed graphic and sound facelift <li>Nice multiplayer feature (requires link cable and extra game cartridge)</ul> <B>Cons:</B> <ul><li>Can't trade Pokémon with Game Boy Color</ul><br /></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Pokemon Sapphire</b><br />Even though I have gotten older I still find the pokemon games to be a lot of fun.  I love the old RBY and GS games and I found that Pokemon Sapphire was no let down.  I have really enjoyed playing this new addition to the pokemon series and look forward to finishing it soon.  Sapphire's layout seems a lot like the original RBY games and at times you get the feeling that you have done this all before.  Overall, it is a wonderful game and I highly recommend it to any fan of the pokemon series.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Gift for son</b><br />I bought this game as a present for my son.  I was pleased with how quickly the item got to my house and mostly how easy it was to order on line.  I will continue to order his games this way.
<br />
<br />Thank you for prompt and great customer service, also the follow up on if I had received my product and how things were going, well, that was truly refreshing.
<br />
<br />As for the game my son tells me it has great strategies, and challenging.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Sapphire Blue</b><br />I have to say, compared to the other pokemon games such as Crystal and the very first ones this game isn't too bad. I'm about half way through the game and it has a lot of the same concepts. Not a lot of familiar pokemon though and as far as I know, none of the original three, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle are in there either. You start as a different character and I gotta say that's not bad but overall the game is fun but it gets a little too much like the same old.
<br />

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Topflite66</b><br />The second installment of the Neverwinter Series is better than the first.  Can't wait until the next expansion comes out.</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Great game with some bugs</b><br />The story line, role playing elements, and gameplay are all terrific. The only problem that I encountered was with a poor camera system. The settings can be adjusted and through trial and error you'll find a setting that you desire. The bugs have all been fixed (for the most part) through updates and patches, so no worries there either. 
<br />
<br />What I found the most enjoyable was the expansion. MotB solved almost all the problems (camera) that the original had in it, and the story is significantly better.
<br />
<br />Some minor problems I personally had with the game included a varied level of voice acting. Some was terrific, some was apalling. It just seemed to be random. Lastly whenever a character would cast a spell, the same voice response would be triggered and it became immensely annoying after 40 hours of gameplay.
<br />
<br />Overall this is a terrific game with some minor flaws that are almost entirely corrected in the included expansion. 
<br />
<br /></p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>The only computer game I really enjoyed!</b><br />I love this game. I probably stayed up a little more late than I should have when I played this game, but I enjoyed every minute of it.</p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>Watch out for Starforce</b><br />The game itself is so-so, but the DRM stinks.
<br />
<br />NN2 uses Starforce, a program that's installed on your computer when NN is installed, but not removed when NN2 is uninstalled. After installing NN2, and even after uninstalling it, my CD/DVD drive would disappear from windows every couple of boots. The only way to fix it was to turn the computer off, unplug the drive, turn the computer on (so the OS recognized the drive as having been removed), turn the computer back off, plug the drive in, and turn it on again. After doing that dance a few times, I tracked down Starforce and killed it (along with uninstalling NN2).
<br />
<br />Not worth the trouble.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>this game is alot of fun but</b><br />This game is alot of fun but the control is much worst than the original.  Otherwise, the story and character creation are really nice
<br />
<br />requirement on the game is pretty high also..
<br />
<br />make sure you have a more recent computer with a nice videocard to take advantage of the setting
<br />

She hasn't gotten it yet,, but her cousins have this game and she loved playing theirs,, so asked her Nana to please find it cause this would be a really cool game I can play til you get home and take me to "Build a Bear workshop" Being the Nana I am,,, she  gets her game.
<br />thank you so much,
<br />Nana --Tammy Davis</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>My six yr. old daughter loves this game.</b><br />Took some help on mom and dads part in the beginning, but soon she was doing this on her own.  She has been enjoying this game and goes back to it regularly.  I would recommend this product for the 5-7year old age group.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Great game for my kids  3 and 4</b><br />My kids love this game.  I became bored with it after a couple of hours, but the kids love it. I highly reccomend it.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!</b><br />Build-a-bear workshop for ds is the awsomest game ever. It rocks! First, you get to choose an animal, then you stuff it, give it lots of love, stitch it, clothe it, and name it. Then you can take it home and feed it, play with it, go to the park, buy clothes, send it to bed, you name it. 
<br />
<br />The graphics are adorable! I can not name one flaw that this game has. You can go to a photo studio and take pictures of you bear doing tricks. I reccomend this game for ages 3-11. Me and my friend are always taking turn with this, and we have a blast. Even though this is my game, I let her create her own bear. {written by my 9 year old daughter}</p><p><img title="4/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/4stars.gif"><br /><b>Build-A-Bear Workshop</b><br />Games are a lot of fun, somewhat challenging and like that I can trade clothes with someone else who has another DS.</p></div>

Customer Reviews<br /><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>My son loves this game!</b><br />My son wanted this game and we couldn't find it any cheaper than here. He loves this game.</p><p><img title="5/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/5stars.gif"><br /><b>Best PS2 game ever?</b><br />Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is by far the best ps2 game I've ever played!
<br />
<br />The game has incredible gameplay that no other game even comes close to! You can do almost anything; from playing a game of pool at a local bar, to flying jet planes thousands of feet in the air! You can even jump out of that plane and parachute back down if you feel like it!
<br />
<br />There's hundreds of vehicles at your disposal, and the physics that go with them feel great.
<br />
<br />Besides having great gameplay, San Andreas also has the most complete, detailed, and immersive gameworld ever created. The state of San Andreas (a parody of California & Nevada) feels like such a real place! You'll see gangsters and drug dealers walking around the bad neighboorhoods, rich people hanging out in Vinewood (the games version of Beverly Hills), and sunbathers hanging out at the beach. If you leave the city and go out to the country side, you'll run across small villages inhabited by stereotypical rednecks... If you travel all the way to San Fierro (a parody of San Francisco) you'll even run into some hippies.
<br />
<br />Besides having an immersive world to explore, there's also a very well-crafted story. You'll come to like many of the characters in here, from a hippie named the "Truth" to a secretive government agent (straight from the X-Files) known as Toreno...
<br />
<br />The whole story arc also has a strange resemblence to the Rodney King case and the riots that happened afterward (this game is set in a parody of California, in 1992). I won't go into detail, but many of the situations feel eerily similar to real events, which makes the whole thing feel even more real. 
<br />
<br />I'll admit that this game is far from perfect though:
<br />
<br />-poor police A.I. means running from the police is more frustrating than fun.
<br />
<br />&
<br />
<br />-the graphics can look pretty awful at times...
<br />
<br />But other than that (and a few glitches here and there) the game is perfect, and I can't imagine any PS2 collection being complete without it.
<br />
<br />I highly recommend this game to any Mature gamer.

<br />I mean come on grown men riding around on bicycles? </p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>grand theft auto San Andreas</b><br />I have not yet recieved my purchase.  This has never happened to me before and I am really dissappointed.  I basically paid for something for nothing.  It has been over 2 months.  
<br />
<br />I recently moved and I gave my new address which is 12361 Oak Park Blvd. NE #307 Blaine,MN 55434. I could have been an error on my part, but I don't think so.  I hope this can be resolved.

<br />Emily</p><p><img title="1/5" src="http://shopping.chokelive.com/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/ai/img/1stars.gif"><br /><b>The worst GTA EVER</b><br />BEWARE OF THIS GAME.  GTA san Andreas has a lot of mature content, and isn't as fun as the others. </p></div>
