1 stars (3D isn't always better) - This game is supposed to be the "improved" version of Pharaoah, which was a terriffic game IMHO, but was a flat, two dimensional plane game. I hate how they're taking these games (like Roller Coaster Tycoon) and making them three dimensional when the three dimensionality only makes it more difficult to maneuver across the terrain. For this game, I couldn't play it that long because the game designers went for realism over function in creating the buildings with the result that every building looks the same, so you forget what is what, not to mention that everything looks bland overall. 2 stars (Great concept - poor execution) - Children of the Nile is a completely new genre of citybuilder game where each 'character' is controlled by an AI and for this alone the developers deserve much credit. The premise holds much promise, unfortunately that promise is unrealized in this game. Other reviews have mentioned the high system requirements and this will be an issue if your system is not at the higher end of the recommendations. The citybuilding aspect of the game itself is very nice and well conceived. The economy is well thought out and sufficiently intricate and can be interesting and fun. The towns that can be built offer great variety due to terrain and resource availability differences among the scenarios. Growth of the city, however, eventually depends on interaction with the rest of the world... Where the game fails in my opinion is on what they call the 'World Level'. This is where all interaction with the rest of the world occurs. It seems to be an afterthought tacked on rather than something that was planned from the inception. Every 'World Level' interaction requires the player to save up certain amounts of specified goods to send out expeditions to these sites. Unhappily, the same sites appear in scenario after scenario (only the amounts of goods required to explore them ever seems to change). Saving up these goods can o...

5 stars (A must-have reference book for any Brasilian Jiu-Jitsu practicioner) - This book is wonderful. I use it everyday after class to see what I could have done wrong and what are the little things you can do to truly lock a submission or gain the sweeps you need. For example: I always had a problem quickly executing the "Americana." I would always end up getting it but not quick enough. I flipped through this book and discovered that if you rotate your opponents wrist slightly while applying the lock like you would reve a motorcycle, you create a much more painful lock causing the opponent to tap immediately. That tip alone helped me to actually master not only the Americana, but has helped my Kimuras as well. And that is just one of hundreds of little pointers that can help your game. I have been doing BJJ for a few years now but I know that I will always refer to this book even if I reach Black Belt. Also check out Carlson Gracie's book, "For Experts Only." It is another must own. 5 stars (Great for beginners) - When I started BJJ lessons 2 months ago I picked up this book right away. It really helped my learning curve in jiu jitsu and taught me to be more sensitive to every move my sparring partner made allowing me to better react. This book has really made a difference in my training. Now I give it to my classmates and they too all have said it has made a big difference. 5 stars (Great Book) - This book gives an interesting history of how Jiu Jitsu started and how it came to the Gracie family who perfected it. The techniques sections are great. The techniques are categorized by belt colors (easier techniques being under the white belt section, harder in the black). All the techniques are thoroughly explained and the pictures are in color and of good quality. There are 110 techniques explained in this text. My only complaint is that they don't have the techniques categorized based on what position you are in (mount, gaurd, side control, etc.). This is...
