Just like it's Japanese predecessors (Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan and Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Damashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan 2), Elite Beat Agents is a must have for any Nintendo DS/DS Lite. What is a game like this about anyway? Keeping the beat! A scenario is given with accompanying music and it is your job to click the circles on the touch screen. Sounds easy? Only if you can keep the beat to t...

Elite Beat Agents is an extemely nontraditional game for the Nintendo DS.  It is a localization of the Japanese Ouendan series.  The game relies entirely on the DS touch screen, and involves tapping and sliding with onscreen markers to the beat of the music.This game is probably the most fun I've had with a DS.  The game is wonderfully absurd: it follows a team of Men In Blac...

Elite Beat Agents is the definition of "quirky."   You aid a trio of agents in thwarting crimes and helping people with their dancing and cheering abilities.   At its heart EBA is a rhythem game not unlike Dance Dance Revolution but instead of using your feet you tap with the stylus on circles that appear on the touchpad of your Nintendo DS.  If you tap off be...

My mother-in-law gave this keyboard to my 4-year old daughter last Christmas.  My daughter loves to sing, dance and play musical toys.  She loves this keyboard.  I had to learn first how to operate and play with it and taught my daughter how to play with it on her own.  The kid in me enjoyed it so much. lol!This keyboard is made by Early Learning Centre, which sounds like a ...

It seems just like yesterday when I walked into Borders and bought my first Shojo Beat magazine. I remember patiently waiting for the first volume to hits the stands because I heard so many promosing things about it. Sure enough, I found that Shojo Beat was more than promising, it actually delivered to Shojo (manga marketed towards a female audience) fans all around the world. Shojo beat featur...

I have to give this chocolate and coffee in one treat thumbs up! I am not a chocolate fanatic but do indulge having that treat once in a while to satisfy my craving. However, I am such a big coffee lover who drinks in moderation so when I cannot fulfil that craving, I reach out for this nice chocolate and coffee for a quick perk-me-up moment.I tasted this coffee flavored chocolate in Hong Kong ...

Beauty and the Beat is the first album from this all-girl band. It's a fun disc with a bit of a raw and unpolished sound for such a pop-oriented album.There isn't a bad track on this album. The disc features two of the bands most well known hit singles: We Got the Beat and Our Lips are Sealed. While We Got the Beat is a fun song, it didn't age as well as the other songs here. Our Li...

Shojo Beat is a monthly magazine published by Viz Media. It features regular installments of six manga (Japanese comic books) series plus a random preview chapter of a new manga from Viz. It also includes reviews of music, movies, and video games that would interest its target audience of teenage, female anime fans. The magazine has both negative and positive attributes. Several of the manga in...

Elite Beat Agents is the Americanized version of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan. Where Ouendan's stlye was excessively Japanese, Elite Beat Agents is very American. The story sequences are a blast and the music is much better than the Japanese iterations. The songs range from Queen to the Village People to Madonna, and I must admit that the range of songs is very appealing. While popular music games...

It is great for using not only on your carpets, but on rugs, upholstery, even in the car! I have used it to remove blood, coffee and tea stains, food stains, even marks left from markers and nailpolish an...

This case has been nothing but fantastic. When one first looks at it, they fall in love with the silver and black chassis. I have had a lot of cases before and some of them were not sturdy at all. However, EVERY Antec Case that I have owned, 3, have been ROCK SOLID. I actually used to use one of my old Antec cases as a stool. Anyway, the best feature of this case is the motherboard/PSU layout. ...

My son has the Wii Hot Wheels: Beat That video game. I have watched him play a lot of times and I will say it is a fun game. It really is not for the serious gamers. I feel this is a perfect game for the 10 and younger crowd. It is very easy to learn. My son has unlocked many Hot Wheels cars and I have not seen him get frustrated with it. It is rated E and I like the game because there is no vi...

Zud is the one and only product I’ve ever been happy with for removing rust.  This product claims to remove rust and stains, and to "work where ordinary cleansers fail." I’m here to say that it really does just that.I used to live in central Indiana where the water coming out of the tap was actually orange.  Zud was just a part of everyone’s life!  Now...

Slow cookers are a working girl's best friend. Being able to combine your ingredients and then come home to a fully cooked meal is wonderful. When I first moved out I was lucky enough to find a Rival Crock Pot for only $6 at a local consignment shop. I was a bit skeptical because it was rather old. It had to have been made in the 70s.The first time I used my Rival Crock Pot, I made a beef r...

Elite Beat Agents is a big surprise. This is one of the best Nintendo DS games to own. Elite Beat Agents gameplay is actually a little hard to describe. You have to keep the beat to the song by tapping on the bottom of the screen. The premise is that the Elite Beat Agents help people in trouble out through several comic book-like stories by keeping the beat to songs. The game has a great learni...
