Review – Gran Turismo 2 (PS1)

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 – 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 – 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…

Review – Shadowgate Classic (GBC)

1 Player Graphics: 6/10 I'm sure they would be a bit better if I had a GBC to play this game on, however since I only have an original black and white GB, it kind of limits the graphics.  Also some of graphics aren't all that great.  The perspectives seem weird, ect.  They are identical to the NES version of this game.  The menu set up is different, but this is more to accommodate the smaller GB screen. Music and Sound: 6/10 Not all that many sound effects.  Doors opening, the occasional fire blast.  It's not much of an action…
