Disney’s Kid-Friendly Narnia Prince Caspian on XBOX 360

After immense popularity of the movie version of The Chronicles of Narnia among children, the publisher is eyeing on the gaming industry with its latest variant “The Chronicles of Narnia - Prince Caspian” for success. One of gamer valued Narnia Prince Caspian as average because of its lack of commentaries. Overall the game is pretty good as the graphics are of great quality.

Disney Interactive Studios has done it once again. Despite every odd, Disney has released a movie-licensed The Chronicles of Narnia game that almost matches up to the source theme. All credit goes to the talents of developer Traveller's Tales. Some of the best known games from Traveller’s Tales are LEGO Star Wars, Lego Indiana Jones, Transformers: The Game and LEGO Batman. This Prince Caspian edition of The Chronicle of Narnia game series follows in the foot prints of 2006's The Lion version. However, there are some limitations in both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game. These include the game's lack of creative imagination as well as a ambiguous narrative and some oddly dim visuals. Disney has launched this game (i.e. The Chronicle of Narnia – Prince Caspian) on all gaming platforms: PC, PS2, PS3, X360, DS and WII.

The special features of this game are:
- Up to 20 playable characters with different strengths and abilities;
- Non-linear missions;
- Team up play with your favourite Narnian creatures;
- 2-player drop-in-drop-out game play;
- Real-time battles;
- Go beyond the film with a special cut scene starring Prince Caspian himself; and
- An exclusive level not seen in the film!

Thus the above special features have made this game a must-buy option for game lovers and kids. You can obtain the XBOX 360 version of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian from Stoleit.com.

Prince Caspian version of The Chronicles of Narnia series is pretty simplistic to play. All game levels focus entirely upon combating and finicky busywork where you pull levers, push buttons, or slap machinery together. You also switch back and forth between characters with special abilities, such as throwing a grappling hook or firing a bow. A second player can also join the action at any time and play through the campaign in co-operation mode simply by picking up another controller, though there is no support for multiplayer over the internet. So you're either hacking or slashing through hordes of eternally respawning enemy fighters, or you're looking around for the mysteries that need to be resolved to open up the next level or reveal a quest item.

Slumdog to Stardom – a Saga of Love, Luck and Lucre


"It was an inspired idea by Vikas Swarup to write Q & A...A broad and sympathetic humanity underpins the whole book." This was the acknowledgement from The Sunday Telegraph, London on Vikas Swarup’s debuting novel, Slumdog Millionaire. Before the release of its movie version, neither Vikas Swarup nor his so-called spectacular debut novel was popular among readers. Danny Boyle and Simon Beaufoy have together pictured and presented the movie in spectacular manner and have made the movie a great success in 2008. After winning 8 Academy awards from all total 11 nominations, Slumdog Millionaire is an international box office super hit.
After an excellent premiere in China, Slumdog Millionaire returned to the top of the foreign box office over the weekend, posting $12 million from 50 markets. In China, Slumdog Millionaire has started with a staggering opening of $2.93 million and the debut in China was the movie's most notable performance, ranking as the biggest launch in the past ten years for a non-Chinese or non-American movie. How someone would describe the success of Slumdog Millionaire: as Danny Boyle’s thoughtful direction or as Vikas Swarup’s realistic depiction of poor, downtrodden lad’s struggle and success? Whatever may be the reason both Danny and Swarup are genius and the success of the movie scripts the real exploration and amalgamation of both of these two.
