Advantages: Light, Great gears, Good looks Disadvantages: Uncomfortable saddle, not the greatest wheels
I have long harboured a desire to own a half decent roadbike. Fortunately my employers opted into the "Cycle to Work scheme" And I purchased a Defy 2.5.
Looks
This bioke looks good in a largely black and white frame with grey details. The bike itself is set at fairly agressive angles with a nice low handlebar.
Frame
The frame is extremely light aluminium (10kg total weight) and put together with very neat and efficient welds. The geometry feels right on the bike, although if you are new to raod bikes you may find the handlebar set a little low. My first ciouple of journeys resulted in sore back and stiff neck, however you soon adjust.
Gears
This bike features a 27 speed Shimano Tigra setup (3 front cogs, 9 rear cogs) That gives you a huge variation. In the highest gear roadsise blurs past you ...
Advantages: Sleek design I no fan : much quieter I No power back switch I Affordable I Wide range of games I Disadvantages: The lid where you put the games could be stronger
The Playstation 2 has sold in excess of over 100 million consoles since it was released back in 2000. When orginally released the Playstation 2 was much larger in size than the slimline version which Sony released in 2004. I am going to look into what are the benefits of the new system and look at the good and bad features.
Good Features
The Slimline Playstation 2 is much quieter than the original console because it simply looks much better, the slim design is better on the eye and also it is less noisy as the console does not have a fan. Instead it uses air vents to keep the console cool. It does the job to be honest because I owned the console for over 2 years and it has never crashed or overheated.
The load times of the new console seems to me a little quicker than the original console. This is a main plus factor because you want ...
Advantages: Great range of industries, addictive Disadvantages: Can become slightly too easy after a while.
Having never played the original Industry Giant game, I was unsure of what to make of this when it was first released. Great reviews from magazines and gamers alike, yet I was still worried. Would it be like Sim City repackaged, a copy of the mighty Railroad Tycoon or various other more dodgy games?
Well thankfully the answer to all of these questions is an emphatic NO. Industry Giant2 really is one of the best sim type games ever produced. The range of options is huge, with both single and multiplayer modes included.
The system requirements of this game are not too taxing on modern PC's. I would recommend a 400MHz processor with at least 64MB RAM. In addition an 8 speed CD-ROM with 3D graphics card are needed and the game will take around 800MB of hard drive space once saved games are taken into account.
Now onto the game ...
