Advantages: Great gameplay and variety of games to play Disadvantages: The graphics at times and the sound is terrible
This review is for the 101 In 1 Explosive Megamix game for the Nintendo Ds console.
How the game works
The game is full of action games, sports and even logic. You basically begin by choosing the country you are from as this plays part of the language.
You then are given a screen and you click on new game. Once you have clicked this part you are given 3 games to play. You have to play them and try and hit the target they set you to get a tick on the game. Whatever score you get from playing a game this adds to your total.
For example if you get 2500 points for a game and you play again and get the same score it will add 5000 points to the score. Each time you get a score you need to keep track of the prices of other games. You need to use these points to purchase other games throughout. They begin being low in prices ...
I played this not long after playing GTA3 as I was hoping for something of a similar style. Bad mistake to make.
Driver is exactly what is says. It's purely driving to certain points to complete your mission. You should generally avoid the police as chances are you will be speeding and they're far from easy to shake. The most disappointing thing is that although you're told what the mission is you don't see much story even in the shoddy cutscenes and it doesn't even feel like you're taking part in one.
Driver consists of you driving from one point to another then back. That is repeated throughout the entire game and it never changes, it's completely and utterly mundane. At the time I played it the graphics were very poor, at the time of release I have no idea how good those graphics would be considered to be.
Overall ...

Advantages: Appendices make this a useful reference work Disadvantages: No real insight as the author was kept at a distance.
read the book with some of Joy Division's music in the background, as it can help to underline the points about Ian Curtis' state of mind. However, it does say something about the book that the best insights into the man come from the work of the man himself and not from the words of the author. The distance that Ian Curtis kept his wife at for much of their lives together not only had an adverse affect on their marriage, but has also had an adverse affect on this book.
