Review – Ghost in the Shell (PS1)

1 Player Based on the Manga and Anime of the same name, you must pilot a Fujikoma Tank, along side the other members of Division 6, to stop terrorist attacks and uncover a secret plot. Graphics: 8/10 The Anime cut scenes are great.  They look like they were taken from the movie.  The only thing that could have been better about them is if they had been more numerous.  The into movie is one of the best intros to any game I’ve ever seen.  As for the game, the enemies seems kind of boring, which is what really brings this…

Review – Mega Man 3 (NES)

1 Player The Mega Man series, the greatest series ever. You must control the Blue Bomber to once again defeat Dr. Wiley. Graphics 9/10 Nice crisp Mega Man graphics.  Plus this game has one of the coolest looking sets of robot masters.  I suppose that I like this game makes me somewhat biased to the scores.  There is some slowdown though when there is more then like 2 enemies on the screen. Music and Sound 9/10 Very good music.  While I was replaying it my brother commented on how cool the music in this game was just out of the…

Review – Super Mario 64 (N64)

1 Player Graphics: 9/10 For being one of the first is not THE first N64 game it still has some pretty nice graphics. The character movement is very nice and dynamic.  Pario is quite fun to watch as he runs all over.  All the old 2 dimensional enemies make the transition to 3D very well.  The effects are also very cool.  My one complain is the camera.  It can often move in wierd angles making it difficult to navigate the world.  This happens the most when you are underwater. Music and Sound: 8/10 The music is pretty good.  Some of…

Review – Gran Turismo 2 (PS1)

1-2 Players Graphics: 9/10 Very nice graphics of over 50 different cars.  The cars look identical to their real life counterparts as well.  The tracks have nice texture effects, and you actually seem like you are driving at the speeds you are, unlike some racing games.  There is fairly little pop up, which is always a plus.  The graphics can seem a bit rough sometimes but not enough to detract from the enjoyment. Music and Sound: 9/10 The soundtrack to this game is great.  Nearly a dozen different songs by real, well known artists such as Garbage, Rob Zombie, Beck,…

Review – RBI Baseball (NES)

1-2 Players Graphics: 5/10 Short squatty ball players don't quite compare to some baseball games, especially these newer once where the player look like themselves.  This is a pretty early game I believe though, so it's hard to expect much.  At least they are human for the most part. Music and Sound: 3/10 There is like 1 tune in this whole game, it consists of 1 sound repeated at several notes, every 10 notes or so.  It is VERY repetitive.  The sound effects are mostly squeals of various kinds.  The ball pitching, the ump's calls, etc. Gameplay 4/10 The computer…
