Cooking Mama (US Version)
November 10, 2007 not bad at allI say that this is another good game where it's about cooking and the recipes that they have are interesting as well.
I have to agree with the reviwer,Brad that it will definately spoil your screen as even mine has a small scratch if you play it often enough.Better to have a screen protector but then again,you would need to change it eventually once it worn out.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Animal Crossing: Wild World (US Version)
Animal Crossing: Wild World (US Version) Nintendo DS
(2)Our Price: US$45.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 daysNovember 10, 2007 Interest wane after a while...In the beginning,this game seems interesting where you are asked to take up a temporary job and assist with some tasks given.Once all it's done,you're on your own to explore around and also refurbished your house and meet new friends.
However,this game tends to get to a stagnant pace after a while as there's not much things to do at all.
Typically not for people who intends to want to have more things to explore and do.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Elite Beat Agents (US Version)
November 10, 2007 depends on music u like...Elite Beat Agents are more of a western music and they have variations of songs from rock,ballad,pop.
I've not played Ouendan yet but I know it's all on Japanese songs.
However,I'd say that I agree with the first reviewer that you don't have to buy both.It all depends on what type of music do you like to listen to.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Palace aka: Princess Hours Director's Cut Limited Edition (MBC TV Series)
Palace aka: Princess Hours Director's Cut Limited Edition (MBC TV Series) DVD Region 3
(7)Our Price: US$127.99List: US$149.99Save: US$22.00 (15%)April 15, 2007 worth buyingAfter searching for so long,i finally found another site where i managed to purchase the region 1 dvd with english subs at a cheaper price compared to another of my regular site that was released by ya entertainment.
I would recommend that you purchase this series as it's interesting to know how a korean palace culture is like.Yun Hye's acting was excellent here as she truly potrays on how she coped in the palace being a commoner and always constantly being watched of her every move.For Ji Hoon,he fairs ok being on the main screen for the first time.I do have to say the veteran actors and actresses have played their parts well and convincingly.
Besides that,it's good to know that there's eng sub on its special features too.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

February 25, 2007 good but not one of the bestWhen Shin Na Ra is nearing to her 30s and spent most of her time and resources in helping her fiance's career but breaks up with her for another woman,Shin Na Ra decides to confront and reclaim him back.She apply for a job in a cosmetic company where the girl,Mi Rae (Park Eun Hye) works.
As usual,before that fate destined both Na Ra and In Jae (Kang Ji Hwan) to come across each other's path though in the wrong way.They eventually work together and love develops.
Nothing to shout about on the storyline except that it does potrays that a young man can still makes a relationship works with a woman whom may be older than him as long as the chemistry and the strong friendship foundation is there.In time,Na Ra learns that there is more to life than returning to her old fiance and she eventually builds up her career and at the same time opens up her wounded heart to In Jae.
Acting wise,Chae Young's character is lovable here and I can comprehend her situation when she's nearing her 30s and the frustration that she has to go through.Eun Hye's character is quite mean here but in the end,it reveals the reason and I've to say Ji Hwan is good looking here.His acting and also the rest of the supporting cast are good.
Story got a little draggy in the middle though.Worth buying if you're the type that likes this kind of storyline or a fan of Chae Young or Ji Hwan.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

Sad Love Story (English Subtitled)(MBC TV Series)
Sad Love Story (English Subtitled)(MBC TV Series) DVD Region 3
(31)Our Price: US$102.99List: US$123.99Save: US$21.00 (17%)February 24, 2007 quite good....Bought this show after seeing KSW in Stairways to heaven and few of his other new movie released.I've to say i'm a huge fan of him.I've to admit i received it last Nov and been procrastinating this show and just about to complete this series.
Storyline is basically a person name Suh Jun Yeong (KSW) whom met a blind girl,Park Hae In(KHS) and somehow they always get separated after a while and met only many years later.In short,it's more of a love triangle between both of them and another best friend of Jun Yeong.Not much to shout about the story other than it's partly happy and also sad ending.
As for the acting,all of them played their part well except that KSW's character here,as i agreed with some of the reviewers that it's depressing and he cried as much as he did in his STH show.
Reccomend to purchase if you like KSW.

Would be good idea if they also translate it to English for better understanding.Have a hard time trying to figure out the Korean wordings and translating it.

Police Story Complete Series
1 people found the following helpful
October 21, 2006 Must Buy If A Jackie Fan...This has always remain as one of my favourite of all time.Jackie's trademark for his well-known daring stunts from PStory I,II,III during his younger days makes the movie interesting and also marked as one of his top movies of all time which rocketed him to stardom as well.
To see him reviving or continuing the story to PStory IV was superb and also the return of Charlie Yeung after many years of absence and strong cast from Daniel Wu,Nicholas Tse and other veteran HK cast.
Would definately add this to my collection.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Running Wild Director's Cut Limited Edition
Running Wild Director's Cut Limited Edition DVD Region 3
(11)Our Price: US$16.99List: US$35.99Save: US$19.00 (53%)October 21, 2006 Not so blowout by this show...I have to agree with one of the reviewer here whereby this movie very much depicts the so called Infernal Affairs except this is a shorter story compared to the HK version.Here,you see KSW acting in a good cop who doesn't trust the system and a prosecutor,YJT to team up and try and put the bad guy,convincingly played by SBH as YGJ who is heartless and very bad.
This time the character KSW played shows more of his versatile side towards an action film and his fighting skills but there's a tendency to overdo his character a little.But with YJT teaming up,both created a good combination of a good cop and a prosecutor who initially believes in judicial system but lost his beliefs and what he thought he had fought for in it towards end of the film.
Yea,i also agree with one of the reviewer whereby there are still loose loop in the storyline as in what happened to the videotape that was recorded in the evidence room when Bae was asked turned the table on them.
I agree that this show isn't exactly one of the best i've seen compared to Typhoon but i give credit to the producer for attempting it.

Love, So Divine (Malaysia Version)
Love, So Divine (Malaysia Version) DVD Region All
(3)Our Price: US$13.99Usually ships within 7 - 14 days1 people found the following helpful
October 20, 2006 don't expect too much...This movie is about KSW and his friend starred as a seminarian whom was sent to a church in a small village after a fiasco that he had make during the service in church and eventually the typical fell-in-love with a girl.Ending is quite predictable with him opting to choose the girl instead of becoming a priest.
Plotline of the movie is nothing refreshing with the exception that he's a seminarian this time and other than that,it's just another normal type of boy-meets-girl,fell in love and a happy ending.
Acting wise,KSW is ok though i wouldn't say it's one of his best performances as compared to Stairway where i get to see more of how he expressed himself during the show.Even i like Ha Ji Won's performance better in Something Happened in Bali.
