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 – 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 – 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,…
