Review – Metal Gear Solid 2 (PS2)

Metal Gear Solid 2 Konami - PS2 - 1 Player I'll just start by being courteous. There may be evil story spoilers in this article, though at the same times things that seem like evil story spoilers may just be exaggerations or even just made up to confuse you. With that said, It seems a recent trend in video games anymore is to simply rehash some old classic. 90% of games today are remakes or sequels to sequels. Sometimes a game comes along and tries something new and fresh though. A game with such neat innovative features the moment you…

Review – Deus Ex (PC)

There was a short period in gaming time not too long ago where many hyped up games we released all around the same period of time. These include games like Oni, Deus Ex, and Shenmue, to name a few. These games all have one thing in common. All had mediocre everything with one amazing shinny new gimmick. In the end you get a game that more or less sucks except you still feel the need to play it because of this one gimmick. Oni had it's whole weapons and hand to hand combat thing, Shenmue had it's whole free range…

Review – Final Fantasy XI Beta (PC)

NOTE: This review was originally written for the PC Beta of FF11. I have no intention on ever purchasing the full version of the game as I do not like MMORPGs.

With the creation of Final Fantasy 11, Square has…

Review – The SIMS (PC)

Maxis Some games you just love to hate. Or maybe it's the other way around, you hate to love them. Then there are those you love and those you hate completely. I'm thinking The SIMS is just one I hate really, but I REALLY want to love it. This game is really easy to compare to Diablo 2. Both have similar play perspectives. Both have similar gameplay mechanics really. Both are games I really enjoy when I first start playing them but hate absolutely after about a week. Finally both are games I keep coming back to. To keep in…

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…
