Dazza commented on Review: Ninja Gaiden III (PlayStation 3):

What a disappointment! I had high hopes for this one, but it sounds like Team Ninja have really dropped the ball again. I absolutely adored the 2004 Xbox Ninja Gaiden, it’s a shame that it’s all gone downhill from there. This has the potential to be such an awesome franchise.

Thanks for the warning anyway @slapshot. Great review

Dazza commented on GAME Not Stocking Mass Effect 3:

The preorder cancellation is bad enough, but to only offer in-store credit rather than a full refund to the customer is an absolute kick in the teeth. As sad as this news is for the games industry, personally I wouldn't preorder again from GAME until they get all this sorted. It's a vicious circle I guess! :(

Dazza commented on GAME Not Stocking Ubisoft Vita Launch Games:

Blimey, I can't help think that GAME's days are numbered now. No stock of Tekken 3DS last week and now this. They are practically driving shoppers into Amazon's well-stocked arms! :(

Dazza commented on Review: SOCOM: Special Forces (PlayStation 3):

Nice review Chris, this turned out just about how I expected. I think I'll wait for the inevitable price drop then pick this up.

Sales for this game must have really suffered due to the terrible timing with this attack on the PlayStation Network. As entertaining as I'm sure the single player campaign is, it must have sucked for gamers who bought this on launch who could not play this online!

Thanks for holding back your review until you could test out the online features. Great job! :-)

Dazza commented on Review: Blokus (PlayStation Network):

This is a pretty fun game with human opponents, but I found the CPU quite difficult to beat, even on easy!

Yeah the game is better played with the Dualshock rather than PS Move, maybe it will suit some but I just found it more time consuming :-)

Nice review Nathan

Dazza commented on Move Sales Reach 4.1 Million Units Sold Around...:

That's actually very impressive considering how little marketing Sony have done in comparison to Microsoft with Kinect. This should silence the naysayers that Microsoft is kicking Sony's rear end in the new motion wars :-)

Dazza commented on Talking Point: What Improvements Would You Mak...:

I really like PS Move, but I really wish that SCE had redeveloped the PlayStation Eye with the new bundle packs.

It's not exactly attactive is it? When you go to all the trouble of wall mounting a stylish Bravia, the last thing you want is a fugly webcam stuck on top of it. It's a shame it could have been rejigged into a smaller Mars Bars shape with clips to easily attach to any modern TV. Kind of like a mini Kinect.

The non-detachable USB cable isn't great. Would have been much better to just have a mini-USB port so you could choose your own length of cable.

This is just nitpicking thou, it's a great start... I'm sure the technology will be refined at a later stage of the PS3's lifecycle thou :-)

Dazza commented on Review: John Daly's ProStroke Golf (PlayStatio...:

I was interested to find out how the Lion would fare against the mighty Tiger. It sounds like it was pretty close and both games have different things going for them.

Nice review Jimbo, I think I'll pick this up when it's a little cheaper.

Dazza commented on Review: Start the Party (PlayStation 3):

I normally hate party games like this, but I really found myself enjoying the fly-swatting and painting games on the Move demo disc.

I'm not sure I'm convinced that this is a worthy full price purchase, but once it ends up in the virtual bargain bin I think I'll pick it up for a laugh.

Nice review James!

Dazza commented on No Wireless Eye Camera on the Horizon:

I think a wireless camera is a little bit unnecessary really, but Sony could surely streamline it so it would sit more attractively on top of a HDTV. It's a bit of a "eye"-sore isn't it? :p

Also a detactable USB cable wouldn't go amiss, then I could easily choose my own length with no need for extensions

Dazza commented on iFixit Tears Move to Pieces:

It's good to know it will be easy to replace the battery if that's ever needed. Still so much better than swapping AAs over every week or so like the Wiimote!

Dazza commented on Review: Sports Champions (PlayStation 3):

Nice Movemodo debut Corbinator! :-p

I've only tried out the demo for the time being, but I really liked Disc Golf. It felt very responsive, perhaps more so than Wii Sports Resort.

Table Tennis is really good too, the Move's impressive one-to-one movement really shines here. I found this quite difficult to master however, because it was so realistic.
