I've been seeing more and more of them lately. These "Personal Trainer" games. I just recently got "Personal Trainer: Math" and it's actually kind of fun, but at the same time it's actually productive Smiley: eek

Math is my absolute worst subject, so I figured before I started taking classes again I'd brush up a bit on math seeing how I'm required to take a preparatory math class here in order to move on to some of the ones I want to take because I failed a placement test of some sort when I started years ago.

I was actually kind of disappointed with it because I was expecting it to include all the complicated algebra type stuff I've been struggling with my whole life. (I could learn something one year and have completely forgotten it by the next.) It's all basic math, but I still feel that it helps... I did simple math problems at a fast pace for a few hours non stop-- and now my brain feels like it is going to throw up.

My only gripe with it is how the game will not recognize the numbers you draw unless you draw them in a very particular way. This is especially a problem with "4" and "8" and gets really annoying when you're trying to beat the clock.

I've heard there were even games like this that teach you to cook. I am curious.

For future reference, IGN's review is a decent source to know what you're getting into. It gives a five. I would suggest this game if you want to strengthen your mind and it cost cheap.

...draining with sambas is kind of like you smack the thing and as you smack blood flies out... normally the blood would just you know fall and be red an what-not, but, with the samba your all whacked out and decide to drink the blood as it flys out. thus not adding MORE damage just taking more advantage of your damage. at least thats my take on it.
