Good Gift for 9 yr old.......2007-12-25
My daughter received this from her brother for Christmas. She has played previous versions at friends' houses and still found this one entertaining.
Pros - The system is easy to set up and use. She was able to begin playing with little to no help. The graphics are improved from previous versions. There is more to do inside the game so she didn't make it through all the options in one sitting.
Cons - I don't think children much older than 9-10 will enjoy this game long term. Children used to gaming interactions (ie Sims) may find the friend and job interaction overly simplistic.
If you liked Dream LIfe, You'll Love Dream Life Superstar!~.......2007-12-09
I bought this for my 9 year old niece and she can't seem to get enough of it. She is totally hooked on this game. I read the other review and we did not experience any of the same problems that reviewer was having. The other reviewer, complained that you have to "earn" your Superstar status. Well, hello, that is the challenge of this game. If it came easy how fun would that be. As with everything in life, you generally have to work hard to get what you want & to earn it! That gives this toy it's educational value!
options don't work right; disappointing overall.......2007-12-09
My 8 year-old got this today. Between the two of us, it is very hard to understand. We can't figure out how to save her game; we were saving it as the manual said, but there is nothing saved next time we turn it on. Since she can't save it, she has to start over every time and can't seem to reach "star" status. My daughter was disappointed, thinking she'd be able to immediately be a star, on the red carpet but instead you have to "earn" it all. Conversations with friends are just written dialog on the screen. There are very few options regarding decorating your virtual bedroom (nothing like Webkinz, for example!). Also, the graphics are pretty bad Lastly, you never see your character except when you are in the closet (no pun intended) choosing clothes.
All in all, a big disappointment.

I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!.......2007-12-26
I bought this game at Target and right when I got home I started to play it. I thought this game was sooooo fun! You get to design and create fashions, enter them in fashion shows, and show the judges your fashion skills! In each fashion show you enter, the judges give you a score on which designs are the best. There are some picky judges, and some judges that love everything you design. If you like fashion and designing clothes, Designer's World is a great game for you! I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!
What a Fab Game.......2007-11-10
i thought this game was a lot of fun! The graphics arent the best, but besides that i think it is sooo great.
PERFECT AND TTL FUN! .......2007-05-26
this game is sooooo much fun but it kinda gets limited after a while. i mean the designing and the fashion shows are sooo much fun. u get to choose where to have ur next fashion show. but each location has certain themes. like: earth tones, red, polka dots, etc. sure u loose and gain money but u can get it quite easily but ending ur session and getting an income. the music is decent and its 100 times better than dream life. trust me, this game got me hooked for weeks and i still am! have fun playing it!
Budding designer.......2007-05-15
My daughter LOVES this game! I find it a little repetitive, but she is greatly entertained!
Awesome!.......2007-04-01
This game is so much fun! I am 11 (almost 12) and got it for a present after a surgery. It was a great way to have fun when I didn't really feel like getting up. I love to design fashion and love the idea of getting to be a fashion designer, whether it is in the real world or just on a screen. You pick a fashion show with three judges and design outfits based on a theme and judges prefrences, just like in real life. You then pick models and music and send them down the runway. You can also design fashions without the shows. My friends and I play it ALL the time and I still haven't gotten tired of it!

Crummy video, vapid content, no educational value.......2007-12-12
My daughter (age 8 1/2) has been begging for this for months, based on the constant barrage of advertising on children's TV. I quickly checked the reviews here and saw that it was highly rated and inexpensive, so I bought it for her. I am stunned and appalled at how awful it is. It's similar to any one of the online sites such as Be-bratz, WebKinz, and Club Penguin, in that you create a character, move through various rooms and areas, do tasks and chores, earn money, and spend it on stuff. The video quality is awful compared to any of those sites, the music is tedious. The graphics are simple and ugly. Worst of all are the blatant stereotypes in the content - you can be "athletic" "funny" or "brainy," you can say dialog like "I think I just failed my math test" and you can have boring conversations with your friends like "I like your necklace, did you make it?" The main purpose is to get money and buy stuff. I wish I could throw it out the window.
I will add that my kaughter is delighted with it, so far, after one session.
hmmmmmm.......2007-12-11
this game is fun in the first place but then as u keep playing it gets boring cuz u alway get to do the same stuff and dont get to expirence something new. u cant actually go swimming,play tennis and go ice skating(i was disappointed) u can just sign up for them
Awesome!.......2007-12-02
I love Dream Life! It is very realistic. You can shop 'till you drop, go to the hair salon, go to your friend's house, school, dances and parties, and much much more! You earn money to buy things by signing up for jobs and doing chores. If you get good grades, your parents will let you get a TV, phone, or computer. I recommend buying this toy to anyone who wants to have fun!
Also, I just want to say that if you are on a Made in China boycott (like I am) that this toy is made in China.
So, buy this toy and have a LOT of fun!
totally fun!.......2007-08-19

You can go to school, the mall,salon,rec center,your BFF's home,and your home.Each game is 90 days,but school days are only like 3 min.and weekends are like up to 5 min depending how long you do stuff.Another thumbs-down is that parties and dances are stupid.I mean all you can do is talk,talk,TALK!!And when you get a computer all you can do is study and IM a friend.but other than that it's SOOOOO much fun! So don't just sit there!BUY IT!!!!

Great addition to your pet shop collection........2007-11-09
Purchased the plug and play for my niece for her 8th birthday. She absolutely loves it! I thought she would get bored with it but she uses it a lot. Great toy for kids who cannot have a real doggie.
Young kids will need help with this game........2007-10-14
I got this for my 7 yr old's birthday as the box says 6 and up. It takes 4 AA batteries and then plugs into your TV. It helped that we have a TV with the jacks in front. We set the TV to Auxillary, then turned the handset on. The game loaded easily. Then I had to spend the next day figuring out the game for myself, so I could show my kid what to do. I found navigation confusing at times and the manual was not very helpful. Also, one of the drawbacks is no "exit" once you've started a game or activity and want to get out of it. My kid still requires some help because of (1) confusion on how to navigate the game, (2) it's unclear how to complete some of the games and activities, and (3) having to read certain onscreen directions. That is why young kids will need help with this game. My kid (a true Littlest Pet Shop aficionado) still likes this game though and enjoys playing it. I would rate the graphics and sound as fair.

Impressive sound quality! Great buy!.......2007-12-27
This is realy meant to be a multimedia speaker set for your pc but we are using it with our stereo system & DVD, etc. These speakers have fantastic surround sound quality beyond my expectation. When watching a dvd, you get the movie theatre sound effect & can hear all the little details! I highly recommend this product. I only wished it was equipped with a remote control for volume control.
BTW I originally saw these speakers at an Apple store for $170 but here at Amazon I was able to save $50 after paying for s+h.
Excellent Speakers.......2007-12-25
I had purchased these to compliment my Dell laptop which I now use as my main computer. Great sound and base for my computer gaming needs, sound very good with the music as well. I highly recomend these.
Awesome Audio quality!.......2007-12-24
I love these speakers. I am upgrading from JBL Creature II's and while they also had great audio quality, I feel like the audio quality of these speakers is much better. For the price, these speakers are awesome.
Killer Sound.......2007-12-22
This is such a great system to have in your home. The sound is very clear, the base is excellent. We use it in the kitchen a lot because we always have people in there. Oh, and it cranks some loud music too..
Fair to Middling.......2007-12-18
These were impressive speakers when I first heard them in a studio apartment, and I bought them because the sound, especially the subwoofer, had me boogeying. But in my larger apartment, they seemed muted and watered down. In short, I am not dancing and will be shopping for a different system soon.

Only works on tube TV.......2007-12-12
Just got it and even though Amazon has the description "Next-generation TV plug-in paintball game", the box itself says "with use with standard glass screen only, not with use of Hight-definition, projection or plasma tv".
I don't know anyone with "standard glass TV" any more.

Phillips DVD player.......2007-12-27
This is a very nice DVD player. The sound is great! Very clear, the picture is awesome. I bought it for my son and I'm extremely pleased with the quality.
great so far..........2007-12-26
I have only watched 1 movie on it so far. The battery doesn't seem to last very long.
False Advertising.......2007-12-25
This DVD player WILL NOT work with the new iPods . . . anyone interested, stay clear. This problem was identified within the first few minutes with Philips customer support . . . time for Philips to offer some deep, deep discounting since this product is sooo out of date.
portable DVD.......2007-12-22
The ipod docking station is great!I can watch or listen to my ipod at the same time or watch movie while on the plane.
Awesome device!.......2007-12-16
This is a nifty little device.
Pros:
- Video display is decent
- Nice case construction
- It played divx from the SD card
Cons:
- It didn't work with my iPod Classic video (thats an apple lockdown)
I don't really care about the battery life. I will plug it in whereever I go and if they don't have power then I will either sleep or listen to my iPod.
The best part--> I bought this new for $89 at my local Walmart.

Do not waste your money.......2005-12-29

SanDisk Sansa e200 Silicone Case.......2007-12-21
Simple device for protecting the Sansa e200 series MP3 player. Protects corners from scratches and dings. Not as protective as an after-market case which I ultimately bought.
A Silicon dust magnet.......2007-11-30
Good protection for the player. Only problem is the dirt attraction. My son keeps it in his pocket and it looks like a dustball.
Grey case.......2007-11-21
The case is so good fits like a glove, so glad i thought of amazon to look for a case thanks
magnet for fuzz, dust, etc.......2007-10-24
I've had silicone covers in the past and never have I experienced the problem I did with this one--every piece of lint, dust, crumb, dirt etc CLINGS to this and I tried wiping it off, but it just slides around. gross! waste of money.
SanDisk E-Series Case.......2007-10-22
This case provides basic protection for your E-series Mp3 however it lacks any type of fastening device to attach it to your person or vehicle.
This problem can be easily remedied by cutting a 1 inch x 2 inch window in the back of the case then sticking a like size piece of male Velcro through the cut out to the back of the Mp3. You can then make a belt loop or arm band out of the female Velcro and attach the device to it. I just use mine while I am driving and find that the Velcro attaches it's self nicely to the cloth seat material in my truck.
