Patience is a virtue

At first Vexx seems to have little to offer. The controls at first are stiff, and the training level (despite the excellent echoing voice) is boring. The sound effects are exaggerated and annoying but, after a while, I found the controls easier and the levels pleasing - it needs patience as it's puzzles include thin paths, tricky jumps, and perfect timing! Once you get used to the sound effects they fit perfectly with the theme of Vexx's world. This is a brilliant game, despite it's bad first impression, and I'd advise anyone who loves a *challenge* give this one a go! Once you start a puzzle you can't bear to put the controller down until you've conquered it...*vexing*...but fun :)

Nintendo Gamecube's Logic 3 battery pack

The Logic 3 battery pack is a typical piece of rechargable hardware for the gamecube. Its charging time is 12 hours for a limited time of 2 hours portable play (depending on what type of screen) you have. There are better ones out there, which take less time to charge and cost less as well, however what impressed me the most of this item was its firm connection to the gamecube using thumbwheel tecnology, and its light up display to show how much power is left. Its not a very interesting piece of hardware but what do expect for something which is designed to give the Gamecube portable power.
