Games Reviews

Just spent Christmas with a dozen family members from 14 to 83 years old. Weather was bad so we were indoors most of the weekend. This was one game we all had a good time playing (4 at a time). Took some thought and some luck to win. The games took about 20 minutes each but if you played to 500 points, it took about an hour. Now I've come home and am buying a set for my own game closet.

Racko is the funnest game! My family and I could play it over and over and never get tired of it!

This is a great game; I love playing it! I only gave it three stars for educational value because, seeing as I'm eleven years old, it's not helping me learn my numbers very much. However that could differ with younger children.

It's a wonderful game and I hope a lot of children are receiving it for Christmas! :)

Hello, all. I am 13 and have been an R/C pilot for 5 years.

After reading several of the customers' reviews, I think it's necessary to clarify a few points:

1. This is a TOY. The entire line of Air Hogs products are TOYS. They cannot be expected to perform like true Radio-Controlled Models. In fact, as I have test-flown many models at the local hobby shop, these models will not do much more than glide. The motors are small and weak, as are the propellers. There are no servos; all directional control is by motor thrust differentiation. As a result, stalling will be inevitable for those who decide to keep at full power, and a nosedive into the ground follows. I actually find these toys much more difficult to fly than real R/C models.

2. R/C Modeling (notice I said MODELING) is a relatively expensive venture. For $49, there is nothing of any quality on the market. However, if you really want to get into model aviation, I recommend starting with the Hobbyzone brand of planes, which are great starters, and then progressing on to the Parkzone series. These planes are high quality, and most have moving control surfaces. The Hobbyzone series is mostly 2-channel to 3-channel, with either Rudder/Throttle control for beginners or Rudder/Elevator/Throttle control for more proficient pilots. These, however, will benefit the first-time flyer more if you TAKE THE TIME TO HAVE AN INSTRUCTOR TEACH YOU. See the Hobbyzone website at www.hobbyzone.com.

3. If you really don't want to spend at least $100, consider the only good flyer in the Air Hogs fleet: the Aero Ace. This toy sells for $39.99, cheaper than many of the other planes, yet flies the best. It has a powerful little 50/210 motor (equivalent) in it, as well as a built in LiPo (Lithium-Polymer) battery pack. LiPo packs are usually found on planes OVER $300! The Aero Ace is good for a toy, or backyard flying, but if you really want to get into R/C MODELING, I would strongly recommend Hobbyzone.

Sorry for confusing you with the technical terms... Once you get into this great hobby, you will understand all of it. I hope this has been some help to you, and I hope that Amazon won't block this because it diverts their business to Hobbyzone! If you wish to contact me, please go to www.rcuniverse.com and send PZCubFlyer a private message. I will try to get back to you as promptly as possible. Bye for now!

im sorry to those of you who broke yours the problem is in the instructions it says to throw it at a 45 degree angle. but you want to throw it levele and it will fly they all do i own them all intruder,resister,slinger,rush,dominator,skywinder, and the helicopter

they all fly

i have this plane it flys great! to the guy who's broke its was probralbly defective but any way it is very sensite to the turns so i recomend the rush airplane it flys well to but it has a rudder good for beginers overall its a decent plane though

Although this toy does come with some nice stencils and activity pack, it does not have any place to store them and there is no way to attach them to the table so it is hard for my daughter to hold the paper steady. If I had it to do over I would not buy this.

There isn't a clear storyline. I felt ilke i had to solve a puzzle while watching this movie. I give it 1 star because at least the stuntmen\stuntwomen in this movie did their job well.

This is great movie whether those critics that give
this one or two star like it or not.I have to agree
on some things but like it used a few lines from the
fast and the furius and some other movies but who cares
if its original or not its still a great movie for a large
fan base that most action fans would enjoy.Ice Cube does
a great job for this movie in his role,and so did everybody
else, so if you want to see a great action packed biker movie
dont go past this cause its a awesome movie.

awesome movie...lots of action, nice bikes and great soundtrack... special features are ok especially the actor commentary...If ur into crotch rocket bikes get this one instead of biker boys

I am a huge American Idol fan and did not know what to expect when I purchased this game. I was pleasantly surprised! Great gameplay! The interactive feel with the judges and cool karaoke sections of the game are great. The best part is the DVD which does not repeat clips. I don't know if this a coincedence or actually planned by the makers of the game. Either way, it rocks! Perfect game for those who like to hear themselves sing!

If you watch American Idol at least once a month, you'll enjoy this game because face it, there's some part of you that wants to be up there among the contestants!
The reality is that this game is the closest that most of us will ever get, and while its not the real thing, playing this game can be just as funny as watching the show!
Try it and see!

While not being an American Idol fan I found the game to be entertaining never the less. Family members who watch the show religiously found the game to be amazing and very interactive. They were able to test their American Idol trivia knowledge as well as belt out a few toons and cut a few rugs. Great product for the casual to devote American Idol fan.

I am a family guy fan (Duh) , so I bought "Family Guy 12" Talking Stewie"
The Doll is nice, not extraordinary great, just nice. My real problem is with speaker,
I mean I got several talking dolls (and my wife knows about them :) ,
all of them have reasonable speaker. Stewie has a lousy speaker,
I mean its so horrible you think the voices were recorded in a seal tin box on the bottom of the sea,
furthermore in order to "hear" the voices, you need to click on small button on the back,
compare this to Cartman talking figure, which needs only to push his hand.
To demonstrate this "wonderful feature" in Stewie you need to pickup the doll,
press the small button on the back to hear a lousy voice. How low can you go?,
ahh and Rupert is not attached to Stewie very well , so it will fall off after couple of uses.

The talking Stewie doll is an excellant purchase. I bought it for my fiance's birthday and he loves it. The Family Guy show is aimed more towards adults and many of Stewie's 'catch phrases' are incorporated in the doll. It is a lot of fun!

I bought this for a gift for a friend who is obsessed with Family Guy, it was perfect! It was cuter than the picture and 10 times as mean. Amazon got it to my house in quick time. Thanks!
