Video Gamer Kids - For kids of 'all' ages...

Video Gamer Kids - August 2007

Mario Party 8

August 19th 2007 14:44
Mario Party is one of those games you wan't to play with other people, otherwise it's as boring as listening to the dish washer on its second cycle. Of course for kids under six that won't matter, whats more fun than shaking their hands in all oddball directions for a little bit of fun?

For Your Little Rev Head... With an Xbox 360

August 19th 2007 14:39
Software development is hard, as is games developing which is that much harder. Probably the hardest of all computer science related fields. When it comes to the money making side of things, video game consoles always reign supreme.



Colin McRae Dirt is a great offroad racing game with tonnes of different tracks and vehicles and great graphics. Unfortunately it is next to worthless on a PC and is best enjoyed on a videogame console (such as the Xbox 360). Don't bother reading on if you want something for the PC.


Featuring pretty much every offroad racing dicipline except those of the two wheeled/MTV nature 'Dirt' looks to bring offroad racing to the virtual world. Luckily enough for the kids the game is considerably simple to play, this isn't a straight up simulator but gives the impression of one.

There are many track/vehicle combinations possible and tonnes of unlockables, it is well presented and has great graphics. Easy to get a hang of but difficult to master it basically is what a good game should be.

The only problems I've noticed with it is some slight (albeit very rare) stuttering and perhaps the overall graphics are a bit too brown, but it's still good.

Highly recommended for kids who like driving (honestly they all should).
