    Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising brings the bold and dramatic world of ancient mythology alive online. As Rome grows into its role as a dynamic Republic, enemies arise from neighboring countries like Greece, Carthage, Gaul and other lands to challenge her dominance. None, however, compare to the threat brought by the return of the ancient Telchine gods, once banished from Rome by the Olympian gods. Jealous of their Olympian brethren, the Telchine gods have returned to stake a claim on the new found wealth of this rising civilization by wresting control over those who conquered them. Embark on a heroic journey to save Rome and the Olympian Gods. Align your passion with the powers of the ancient Gods of Rome. Take on epic quests to earn favor with your god. As your heroic prowess grows, your god alliance rewards you with the ability to command the unequaled powers of the gods and your own squad. The fate of a nation hangs in the balance, and only a true covenant of gods and heroes will save Rome. Are you ready to pledge your allegiance?

    Key features Squad-based combat in Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising allows players to collect more than 100 unique minion warriors. Players can deploy these minions in a variety of strategic groupings to form individual squads, create unique formations and implement combat tactics on-command, maximizing their power in combat. Reminiscent of an Action RPG, combat moves can be linked together to provide a more dynamic, dramatic and visceral feel to battles. As you fight to save Rome from her enemies, including the Gaul and Samnites, you will also battle fierce and monstrous creatures of myth, including Cyclopes, Minotaurs and the evil Medusa. Embark on more than 1,500 story driven adventures which carry you across the world of Ancient Rome while you command your own squad and the powers of the gods.

    not exactly 'real' golf - but it's fun4
    This review is for the Golf Launchpad for the PC computer with Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2006. Set up is a snap. Takes a few minutes (5 to 10) to connect the net, and insert the ball unit; after that, just use the included USB cord and connect to your laptop or desktop PC. For me I attached it to my Dell XPS M140 Laptop. Next you load the 3-disk software PC version of Tiger Woods PGA 2006 onto the PC - this took about 30 minutes and you need the "course" disk inserted in the computer to play the game. Once everything is loaded you can launch the game, which took about 2 to 3 minutes to load - might be faster on a newer/faster PC. You can start from scratch (create a player) or choose from a list of players including Tiger Woods (default). All you need to supply is your own golf clubs.

    By default your player always starts on the middle of the TEE, but you can move the player (left or right, backward or slightly forward) or turn their body slightly using the left or right arrow keys on the keyboard. There are drop down menus to choose what type of swing (full, extra spin, pitch, bump & run etc.), as well as a golf bag with full set of "virtual" clubs that are calibrated for each player on the list. There are about 15 different players to choose from. For Tiger, using the virtual 9-iron is equivalent to 149 yards; the virtual driver is 311 yards, lob wedge 91 yards etc. Distance to the hole, lie, and overview diagram of the hole are also on the screen.

    As i've mentioned in the Title, this is not exactly golf, while you can choose the specific virtual club from the bag, the distances are already pre-calibrated; thus all you do is choose your virtual club, then swing (any real club) that your room (space)allows, over the launchpad base unit that has several "sensors" on it. Based on what the sensor picks up from your swing, the golf ball on the computer screen will go close to that particular distance and direction. At the end of each shot, there will be a meter telling you what percentage strength you hit the ball with, a bunch of other information, such as slight draw, hit inside out, etc.

    For example, swinging Tiger's virtual driver (calibrated at 311 yards) at 85% strength, means your "golf ball" will travel approximately 264 yards. I can achieve this distance whether i'm using my own real driver or a real pitching wedge - as long as the computer senses a "swing" over the base unit sensors, it will calculate the speed of that swing and will determine the "strength" of the hit. You can even swing your open palm across the sensors, and the computer will register that as a "hit". One good feature is that you don't have to hit the ball mechanism connected to the launchpad, just glide your club over the sensors, and it will register the "hit".

    Chip shots, putting are all "hit" similarly.

    Likes:
    -Graphics are beautiful
    -Great overview of golf courses i may never get a chance to play in real life.
    -swinging a real club instead of using a joystick or using the mouse.
    Cons:
    -responsiveness of software ok. Ocassionally your swing does not register on the computer and you need to reposition the player before you can re-swing.
    -You might "ruin" your true golf swing - since you don't get a real feel for the flight of the golf ball, or spin off the face of your club, you might simply swing harder just to get the strength meter to register higher i.e. to 100% - so the true "feel" of the game is missing.
    -Putting is all computerized - again no true "feel" of putting the ball, wedge shots, reading the green, etc.

    Summary: The Golf Launchpad is a great input device specifically designed for golf games and works with the included EA Sports TW Tour 2006 (i have not tried other golf titles) It's better than using a computer joystick or mouse, which is the main purpose of the unit. However, don't expect to improve your real golf game using this device; with each hit, especially in Novice mode, it registers as a near perfect hit; getting pars and birdies were relatively easy, but you also miss very "makable" putts, as well as make fantastic chip shots from 25 yards out, which causes me to think it's a programming software issue, and not from improved "golf skills".

    Nevertheless, for a friendly game with family and friends at courses you may never get a chance to play on, this is a neat way to "experience" it. To improve your golf skills, nothing beats hitting a bucket of balls at the range and putting on the greens with the proper instructions/instructor.

    Note: Children should be supervised when using this device. Be mindful, you're still swinging a real golf club that can cause bodily/property damage.

    Fun Item!4
    It's definately fun to play. I find the long iron game and driver to be pretty realistic, however the chipping and pitching aspect is a little off. Putting is pretty good. I will definately use this more in the winter when it gets to cold for the range. Only dislike is that the ball already beat up the plastic and I only used it 2 times. Overall a fun item and definately a good way to take up some boredom!

    Great with high ceilings!4
    The launchpad is Great with my high ceilings, I really can't see golfing inside with lower ceilings,and the putting(doesn't register puts even close, you really gotta wack em) The drives and chips are good, it will be a good tool to have fun with and keep the swing going durring the winter months!

    Would have given it 5, but...4
    I got this joystick for X-mas, and I loved it. It was really comfortable. But then I was racing with it, not doing any hard turns or anything like that, and I hear this "Snap!" And then it gets all loose. I asked my brother and he said a spring had broken. And I wasn't even doing any thing rough with it! Kind of strange. Maybe I should have rated it less, becuase it doesn't have a hat, can't twist and only has 4 buttons (plus the little precision button). Not to mention the fact that it's a piece of junk now, it won't work any more. OK, I guess maybe I just got a defective one, but still, I would buy something of better quality.

    You get what you pay for!3
    Altho this joystick is made by gravis it is one of the company's low end/low price items, and not worth the money unless you use it for kindeling. All in all this joystick is a piece of garbage to be hammered apon!

    Happy Gaming!!!

    Junk1
    You get what you pay for. This is very easy to install as the drivers are inside the stick so its very easy to install. It then works for about 3-5 minutes before getting hosed up to the point where you cannot move. Makes a nice paper-weight.

    Amazon.com Product Description
    A quirky, detailed puzzle game, Professor Heinz Wolff's Gravity for PC packs all the fun of real, scientific experimentation without requiring you to sit through any boring intro-class lectures. You'll arrange objects, take advantage of common gravitational effects, and learn from the unexpected as you tackle a new endeavor on each level.



    Conquer 100 unique, puzzling levels. View larger.



    Professor Heinz Wolff is a charismatic scientist and a popular star from the BBC's Great Egg Race.
    100 Thought-Provoking Levels of Real Physics
    Featuring the renowned German-British scientist often associated with the BBC's Great Egg Race, Professor Heinz Wolff's Gravity offers 100 increasingly difficult levels capable of providing challenges for puzzlers of all ages. Your big objective? Put chain reactions and simple structures to work for you as you try to press the button on each level. You'll find yourself rolling balls, stacking bricks, and trying to transport glassy eyeballs across the screen on funky wheeled carts. Of course, the biggest factor is gauging the effects of the real, accurate physics behind every movement.

    Designed to Keep Puzzlers of All Abilities Busy
    The fact that players can test and retest different configurations makes this game a great introduction to problem-solving for young scientists. But seasoned experimenters are likely to enjoy it too, since they'll quickly get caught up in trying to solve each problem in record time or with the quirkiest series of events.

    Whatever level player you are, if you get stuck, the game offers you access to a bank of points that can be used to "buy" in-game hints from the professor and jump-start your thought process. And, just like real-world problems, the challenges in this game can often be overcome in a variety of ways, allowing for creative solutions to all kinds of conundrums. Unique to the PC version of this game is an editor that allows you to capitalize on the professor's physics engine and create customized levels, taking the possibilities for play from vast to literally infinite.

    Unique Backdrops, Experimental Sandboxes, and Head-to-Head Intellectual Combat
    This game also offers 20 unique sandboxes that allow for experimental play and let you hone your deductive skills while creating crazy reactions. And it includes four mini-games that provide an arena for staging matches against friends, parents, siblings, and classroom rivals for bragging rights and real-time tests of your reasoning ability. Additionally, hand-painted background art in bright colors adds a fun, slightly whimsical feel to each screen, while atmospheric music helps ensure that you stay immersed in the professor's physics-rich puzzle-solving world.

    Not Just For Boys!5
    I have found that many of the computer games available are mostly running around killing things. The adolescent male fantasy is heightened by blood and body parts flying all over the screen. The mechanics of these games typically depend on super quick hand-eye coordination and hours of free time, which only adolescent males tend to have (of course there is that group of males who remain in this category despite their age in years). Guild Wars is not one of these games.

    The interface is easy to figure out, even without years of gaming experience. The characters are fun to develop and easily controlled through use of the keyboard. There are no "hot buttons" that are a must to learn in order to be successful in combat. The combat is not turn-based but it also does not hinge on who has the fastest fingers (I am a two-finger typist). The game mechanics are quite simple to figure out even if you are not a role-playing game expert. The character professions are self-explanatory.

    The thing I love most about this game, is that it is something that girls can play and enjoy. I love the quests and missions and the storyline. There is more to do than kill everything in sight. Strategy is just as important as muscle. You are able to play "smart" and still succeed, where in other games it is all about how good of a killing machine you are. Another aspect that I enjoy is that there is no gore splashing all over my screen. Enemies die and disappear without being disemboweled and beheaded right before your eyes.

    You have the option of colleting materials and weapons that can be sold or traded in towns. There is a psuedo-economy that makes this very interesting. Item prices fluctuate with the market. Which means you can sometimes get a great bargain if your timing is right! What girl doesn't love a sale?! Plus, you can make gold by selling things you have collected to other characters. You get to haggle which adds to the experience. This aspect of the game is much like "Settler's of Catan". There is also the ability to chat with fellow players. This social option makes playing interesting and enjoyable.

    Guild Wars was originally given to my fiancé as a gift but I got hooked on it and had to buy my own copy. Being able to play with other people is great. Now we can play a game together that we both enjoy. I have to admit that I used to be a "gaming widow" at times. He would get wrapped up in a game wouldn't surface for hours. Now we can game together!

    Of course, as with anything there are down sides. This game has its problems. For one, there are a lot of immature players online who will get on your nerves. Luckily, you don't have to deal with them if you don't want to. Just leave the town and you are in your own playing world. You can play with henchmen when you need to have extra members in your party.

    Another problem is that you max out at level 20. This is frustrating since there are monsters that are level 20+ that you will encounter regularly in the later part of the game. They do massive amounts of damage and have ridiculous armor classes. Being killed so easily and not being able to do much damage is seriously frustrating.

    Also, there are players who will "run" low level players to areas so that they can get the best armor. This is highly unfair, since better armor is one of the keys to success, especially when playing in the PvP arena. Overall, however, the cons are outweighed by the pros.

    Of course, as with all games that are marketed mainly for adolescent males, the female characters are scantily dressed. However, they are not as bad as some games. The monks actually are fully clothed. The one female player pet peeve that I have is that there is only one female henchman and she is the healer (and later a protector). Talk about stereotyping!! I am hoping that the company will notice this and update the henchmen with more female players.

    Guild Wars is a game that girls can play and enjoy. It isn't just for muscle minded shooting players (typically male). I love this game for its non-gamer mechanics and friendly interface. The quests and missions give it a story line and purpose beyond running around killing monsters. I would recommend this game to players who like RPG games and those players who have never thought that RPG games were for them. It has a nice balance of skill and strategy play, plus a story line. Guild Wars is a lot of fun to play and I hope that you will get as much enjoyment from it as I have.

    A Cure for what ails MMORPGs?4
    Having read a few of the reviews on this game I honestly wanted to play the game for a few levels before wanting do a review.

    Specifically speaking on the Collector's Edition, and having only bought one of these "special edition" products, I must say that the primary value comes in the art book and the headphone/microphone set. The headset is a quality model allowing quick communication with one's guildmates. If it isn't a Logitech model, somebody should be calling a lawyer, as it is that good. The art book is interesting and makes for a nice thing to drop on ones coffee table, but really doesn't hold much interest beyond that.

    As for the game play? What appeals is the mission based format. XP isn't from grinding (which I hate), but from missions that develop the story and give your character skills that are useful in both PvE and PvP. Crafting does take some thought and doesn't involve activities that you could teach a water fountain to do or wear out your keyboard. It's more like putting together puzzle pieces that you gather from around the world. Your salvage items can be recovered for their materials, which in turn help you put together more and more powerful armor and sometimes weapons. At my level (13) Soloing is possible with good strategy as henchmen you can hire fill in the holes in your abilities. I'm told later that only a few soloing character combinations are possible, but then again I'm not there yet. Though the game hype says that you can't build a bad character, you can, but it is *very* easy to re-prioritize within a particular primary/secondary class configuration. The usual priorities while soloing apply here: enough defense/healing to live, enough firepower/offense to survive.

    As for the background and story? It's well-developed. The missions bring out a little more story each time, and the plot-based stories have their own cut-scenes built into the engine. Voice acting is passable and the story is... good. George R R Martin fans can keep looking for their next book, 'cause the story here isn't going keep you. Mind you they'd have to do a few more "thrilling" emotes with the story line for that kind of thing to occur. But I digress.

    Basically, it comes down to this. Do you like Fantasy MMORPGs? Do you hate "grinding" out XP? Do you like to group, but hate feeling like you "have to" in order to progress? Then this is the game for you.

    Go order a pizza for that $15/month you're saving and enjoy!

    Good Game5
    I use to play Ever Quest, Dark Age of Camelot and others for hours as often as I could then one day, I got married and had kids. Now, I have almost no time to do anything. Heck, I am lucky to go mow my yard and I hate yard work. I still love MMORPG games so, when I heard about "no subscription fees" I bought it.

    Since I do not have the time to socialize like you have to in other MMORPG games, I think it's nice to have the option to hire henchmen that actually play better than most players. The storyline missions are a must and actually is the best way to see what Guild Wars has to offer for the solo player.

    Guild Wars also has player vs. player opportunities, you can join a guild which is extremely helpful in the growth of your character assuming you join the right one.

    Guild Wars will sell you additional "chapters" as with any other MMORPG; however, the patches, general updates, and some music downloads and additional game content are FREE.

    Online RPG5
    This is a great alturnative to World of War Craft which reguires you to pay a monthly charge. unless you play on on of their free private servers which has fewer players and normaly takes away from the overal experience of the game.

    So friends Guildwars is the place to be. play the story line with friends or AI bots. team up with friends or random online players and take on another team. or even join a Guild and battle another guild. where you make your way into the guild hall of the other team and slay their guild lord for the win.
