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…

Review – Mischief Makers (N64)

1 Player Graphics: 9/10 Despite being one of the few 2D games for the N64, I think the graphics on this game are amazing.  Very colorful, very detailed manga styled graphics.  Had this game included actual anime cut scenes it would have possibly been a 10.  Unfortunately the N64 is unsuited for FMV and the cut scenes are limited to sprite movement.  Anyway I really like the look of this game. Music and Sound: 6/10 Nothing too spectacular.  The music is all similarly styled and is ok, but there has been better.  The sound effects are what you would expect,…

Review – Tecmo Super Bowl (NES)

1-26 Players (2 players at once max) Graphics: 7/10 Nice NES graphics.  Personally I really like the view used for this game for a football game.  I don't care much at all for the newer more popular behind the quarterback style. The cut scenes in this game are pretty nice as well, The intro is particularly nice. It's esy to tell what's going on which is almost necessary for a football game if you want to get the guy with the ball. Music and Sound: 8/10 You can actually understand the digitized speech!  The announcer calls Touchdowns, the QB call…

Review – Bubble Bobble (NES)

1-2 Players Graphics: 7/10 Pretty decent graphics.  The enemies and such all look like what they are supposed to for the most part.  They are a bit cutesy looking overall but then the game itself is supposed to be cutesy.  For the most part all sprites are block sized creatures except the end boss which is huge.  An overall colorful environment. Music and Sound: 4/10 The sound effects are fairly repetitive.  For the most part Bub and Bob (the two dragons) have the only read sound effects.  The jump and shoot bubble for sound.  Occasionally an enemy shoots stuff for…
