Review – Mega Man X4 (PS1)

1 Player Graphics: 8/10 Standard Mega Man style graphics.  Despite being on the PSX there isn't all that much more detail in the characters than the SNES had.  Some of the animation is better I suppose, though some seems kind of cheap.  The Anime cut scenes are a nice addition though.  Some pretty large enemies which is kind of a nice upgrade, but I don't remember much of X2 and X3 so it may not be the first time. Music and Sound: 6/10 Once again, it's a Mega Man game.  Funky fast paced guitar sounding techno music, which blaster sound…

Review – Metal Gear Solid (PS1)

1 Player Once again Solid Snake must battle evil terrorists to stop them from using the Nuclear Warhead launching walking battle tank called Metal Gear.  An intense, involving story, and fantastic visual effects await ahead. Graphics 9/10 While they occasionally seem pixilated when up close, you can't really blame the programmers for limitation of the system they were using.  The camera angles are almost never wrong, the characters look great and varied, the cut scenes are very nice, and the character movement looks good.  One thing you could complain about is the lack of mouth movement during the 3D parts…

Review – Snake Rattle and Roll (NES)

1-2 Players The snakes Rattle and Roll must battle their way through a 3/4 overhead 2D world to uh.. I'm not sure what.  Battle giant feet, toilet seats and chomp Nibbly Pibblys. Graphics: 7/10 Well he graphics are kind of nice, though it does suffer some from "What is that supposed to be?" syndrome.  Mostly on the (seemingly) toilet seats you battle.  You also seem to fight bells, drills, and giant feet.  The feet seem to be the bosses.  The game is set in a sort of 3/4 overhead 3D aspect, which can be very confusing on controls.  You will…

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…
