season from a period when motorcycles definitely ruled the road. Action from all eight rounds is featured.Machines made by Norton, Mondial and Moto Guzzi were the popular choice for riders competing in the 350cc and 500cc Grand Prix categories. As this review shows, the riders pushed these bikes as hard as they do today and competition was fierce for a podium place.Famous riders of the era including Duke, Masetti and Doran battled for the first place in each stage with the Milani brothers and Oliver close behind.Filmed in colour, the road racing action takes place in Spain, Switzerland, France and Italy. Highlights of the Isle of Man TT the Belgian Grand Prix and races in Ireland and the Netherlands also feature. Graham Walker provides commentary.

Advantages: Brilliant footage, lots of it, flexible. Disadvantages: The races weren't very good in 2000, useless menu system, typically poor commentary.
...With the 2001 Formula One season having drawn to a close, petrolheads like myself are forced to look for other means of getting our F1 fix. For the first time, the season review of Formula One has been released on DVD, allowing for a far more extensive season guide than has been produced before.
In raw terms the difference is noticeable immediately - the VHS season guides typical feature around two hours of footage; the 2000 season DVD has 255 minutes of digital material. Each race can be viewed independently from the main 'Super' channel, incorporating track views, on-board cameras (OBC) and shots from the pitlane. Alternatively, the interactive feature allows you to flick between shots either from the main 'Super' channel or from an alternative trackside view, an OBC, the pits or the data stream.
It's a great concept but...

Advantages: lots of snooker and pool to play. Disadvantages: commentary gets repetative after a while.
...i have found world snooker championship 2007 on the xbox 360 to be a fantastic snooker simulation game.
the commentary is good and the graphics are excellent and the controls are very straight forward basicly pick up and play.
you can create your own character to use which is a good feature as it gives that sense of playing as yourself.
the best feature of this game is the new positional play where you get a black circle showing you where the cue ball will most likely end up and making it much easier to plan your next shot, i found this makes the game way better than previous versions.
although this has snooker in the title you can also play the pool championship either the 8 ball or 9 ball games are available to play.
there is also a trickshot mode to play and online multiplayer mode too, if you like snooker then you will be...

Advantages: Good game play Disadvantages: can't think of any
...I bought World rally championship from ebay as i have played this on my sisters playstation 2 and i thought it was a great game. I paid around £5 for the game and is one of my favourite games i have for my playstation 2.
You can choose from a selection of cars like peugeot, ford or a skoda there are several tracks to choose from monocco, Sweden or kenya. You can play in 2 player mode which can be a great way to play against friends. You can change how you see out of the car like if you just wanted to see the road or the road and the bonnet or the whole car.
Once you have chosen your car you can choos out of two people to drive the car and when you start the lap you can try and beat the lap time. As you go around the tracks the cars collect dust, mud and snow and even receive collision damage.
The game features all the cars, all...
