Review – King’s Knight (NES)

1989 Squaresoft | 1 Player Graphics 6/10 So so graphics.  They are OK, but this is for NES standards.  It is a Square game, and they tend to have pretty good graphics for their games when they are released, and this is one of their first games so it's pretty early.  Some of the monsters are easy to tell what they are supposed to be but others seem like random blobs. Sound 3/10 I don't remember anything that really stands out in this game and being an early NES game this area isn't too great.  Nothing spectacular or too memorable…

Review – Digimon World (PS1)

I think it is best to start out by saying that I like Digimon in general. I like it a lot really. Season 2 was stupid, but Season 1 and 3 are great. In the whole Pokemon vs Digimon thing I pick Digimon hands down. The monsters are much more bad ass, the story is ten times better than "Let’s train our monsters to kill eachother for prizes!". Anyway, I really like Digimon. So hey, a Digimon Playstation game! Neat. And it’s an RPG. How can you lose? Well apparently pretty fucking easily. Digimon World, is one of the worst…

Review – Zero Wing (Genesis)

      It should be being to be well known that I are an fan of the dying game genre sometimes being called "Shooters".     No, I do not mean First Person Shooter, though those be generally pretty well good as also, I refer myself to side scrolling or upwards scrolling space fighter games where there is being the general point is to see how much large of a score can rack up. The best console type examples of this type of console game are including Life Force, Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie, and Bangaio (there be many others, these be just example,…

Review – River City Ransom EX (GBA)

River City Ransom is a favorite game among many “old school” gamers. It’s fast paced combination of action and RPG coupled with a first rate two player set up make this a game everyone loves to play. So, like its NES bother Super Dodge Ball, River City Ransom gets a GBA revamp. This game gets not just a complete facelift to 16 bit style graphics, but also many new features. The best new feature, and probably the worst, is the save system. No longer will gamers be plagues by extremely long strings of random symbols and letters. Now you can…

Review – Sonic Adventure (Dreamcast)

1 Player | Sega Sega's mascot makes the jump to true 3D.  Though I believe there was a previous 3D Sonic for Saturn or 3sx or Sega CD or one of those, now he’s 128 bit powered and it shows.  This is the Mario 64 of the Dreamcast, the game that was thoroughly crafted to take advantage of the system's overall capabilities.  Certainly a worthy game and surely feels like a Sonic game to me. Graphics (9/10)   Keep in mind the ratings are determined on the system capabilities.  That is, a NES game could receive a 9 as well…

Review – Disgaea Hour of Darkness (PS2)

PS2 – Atlus – 1 Player Lately I haven’t been the type to buy games until they’ve been marked down at least twice. However for some insane reason I picked this game up very soon after it came out based on one person’s recommendation. Sounds like a mix for disappointment personally but in the end it was a good idea. For the most part I really hate these grid based Tactical RPGs. Final Fantasy Tactics was frustratingly boring/difficult/lame after like 4 battles. This game is ten times the game FFT was. The battles are much quicker for one thing, especially…

Review – Final Fantasy VII (PC)

Final Fantasy 7PC(1 Player)Squaresoft (Once again) You must control a group of rebels to save the planet from an evil Empire (orin this case an evil corperation) and the "true villain" that lies beyond. Quite a fewloss characters than the previous Final Fantasy (FF6 duh), and the first time a FinalFantasy game has had true FMV cutscenes. This game is quite a change for the series. Alsoit's the first time a Final Fantasy game has been made for a non Nintendo system (the PSX)and the first time there's been one playable on the PC (emulation excluded). Graphics (8/10)The series makes…
