CRASH OF THE TITANS....


The new game of Crash Bandicoot seems to have lost its luster. Apart from being innovative during Playstation days, it was also fuun to play and entertaining.


Now comes Crash of the Titans, Crash latest adventurer. Gone are the days when you can select a stage to play, now the game just seem repetitive. After battling out mutated creatures from the island, you can easily control tem and ride over them.


Although Crash now has a powerful acrobatic fighting system: punches and flying kicks, multiple attacks and special counter moves. Power up the skills of Crash to unlock new attacks and blazing combos.


One good thing about this game is you can play along with your friends at the same time, unlike the good old days where you are all alone.


Go check it out, your kids might still love it, it also gives some time for family bonding.

Pokemon Spinners




If you're looking for a gift for your young kids, that you may also like. I am suggesting the new Pokemon Spinners.




Pokemon Spinners fetaures the characters from the hit TV show Pokemon. The only Pokemon I knew is the most popular of them all Pikachu and also Jigglypuff and Snorlax. My son loves the show so much, that he always hurries home to catch the hit cartoon series.




Pokemon Spinners also has a stadium where you can battle other Pokemon creatures. This toys kinda remind me of the previously great toy, Beyblade. Except that when my son and his cousins play the Pokemon dont spark which is kinda safe, unlike Beyblade which sparks because of its metallic part.




Caution though, after you release your Pokemon your kids should be in a safe distance, because you'll never know they might hit your kid. Safety always comes first when playing with toys. So to all Mom out there, get your kids a Pokemon Spinners now.

MOVIE HOLIDAYS


Christmas is just around the corner, and I am pretty sure that there are a lot of great films to be shown in theaters.


Gone are the days when you have to wait for the next Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter new films. These year though seems to be exciting with the release of The Golden Compass.


It stars Nicole Kidman, Dakota Blue Richards and Daniel Craig. It's about a 12 year old girl epic adventure with the help of a talking polar bear.


The budget must have been huge, just look at the trailer, The Golden Compass Trailer, the production set was so big, and the special effects looks promising.


Also the location, they must have shot it at lot of countries. Also the way the animal effects looks so real, if I was thinking that they wer CGI, you would'nt know the difference. This is one huge movie and I just hope that it won't disappoints.

SPIDERMAN : FRIEND OR FOE


My son and I have played a lot of game over the past years, He's favorite superhero is Spiderman. We've seen all the three films and I think Spidey have become a big influence on him.


Now when the new game Spiderman: Friend or Foe came to the store, I did'nt hesitate to buy it.


The Characters of the three film were mixed with the characters of the comic books. Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Venom, Sandman, Black Cat are among the few characters which you can use and play along with Spiderman.


Most surprising was the character Iron Fist, I didnt expect him to see in this video game. But whoa, He got pretty moves and skills. I used to choose him as sidekick of Spiderman but my son's favorite sidekick was Venom because he got enormous superpowers and he's so huge.


Although some of the stage have become repetitive, the interesting part in the game is who will you face in the boss stage. Of course it's so hard to beat 'em, but were up to the task of beating those bad guys. After you beat 'em in the boss stage, you can choose them in the next stage as your sidekick.


It's fun to play this game, so if you're a mom who have a son like me. This is one game for you, it will develop your spider bonding time together. Grab one now.
