- Not really too many games I would be keen on buying at the moment, but as it progresses, hopefully more will become available. And as with all games for consoles, they are quite expensive unless you manage to get a deal!

purchased 04 Jun 2008
+ the best thing is, it keeps the kids busy. it is good fun and gets them playing together. unfortunately, my hyper nephew managed to hit one of the other kids whilst playing tennis-lol.
- i thought it would be easier for my son to use-he has cerebral palsy but, it is more difficult for him to play the racing games than on the ps2. i would have been happier with retractable leads and a better stand for the actual console. the graphics arent as good as i hoped but, the kids are pleased with it. i feel it is a games console more for children than adults. i'm going to save up for a ps3.
