	Disgaea: Hour of Darkness review (PS2) Reviewed on July 06, 2006 At a glance, Disgaea: Hour of Darkness looks like your standard strategy RPG: turn-based battles on a grid, a variety of weapons and classes, a small amount of customization. But from the first time you meet the main character, you know that you’re in for a very unusual trip.
	Battle Stations review (SAT) Reviewed on July 06, 2006 Battlestations could've been a good game..... I don't like saying that a lot since you can basically apply that to any crappy game. But it's true in BS's case. A title where you take control of your own fleet (ranging from patrol boats and mine layers to battleships and aircraft carriers), set sail on the seas, and kick the crap out of any opposing fleet that dares cross your path? Sounds like a kickass game to me. Unfortunately....
	God of War review (PS2) Reviewed on July 06, 2006 There are two things that are good about this game. Sadly, they are the two things that are good about every “good” game. Usually, these two things make up the bulk a review but I didn’t write this review intending to tell you that this is a fun game and is looks good, blah, blah, woof, woof. In the grander scheme of video-game things, God of War is a big failure. It makes all the same mistakes concerning content that every other high-ranked game does. It’s offensive, it’s hyper-masculine, it m...
	The 7th Saga review (SNES) Reviewed on July 06, 2006 Enix went all-out to craft monsters that would test the mettle of even the most battle-tested adventurer. I faced instant-death attacks, brutal fireball and tornado spells and devastating melee attacks in fights with both bosses and run-of-the-mill overworld denizens. Just when I’d think a particularly tough battle was finally going in my favor, one foe would resurrect a fallen comrade or completely heal itself, forcing me to essentially start over.
	Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening review (PS2) Reviewed on July 05, 2006 Everyone said it was over
	Marble Blast Ultra review (X360) Reviewed on July 04, 2006 As you race around the various stadiums trying to collect multi-colored gems ahead of your worthy opponents, you’ll find power-ups scattered all over the place. Some blow you up to giant size and let you send everyone who touches you flying. Others give you the ability to spring high into the air, or to rocket across most of the arena if you launch cleverly from the top of a ramp.
	Tecmo NBA Basketball review (NES) Reviewed on July 04, 2006 Tecmo NBA Basketball hit stores not long after the 1991 smash debut of Tecmo Super Bowl, a game that succeeded because it stood as the most accurate NES representation of its sport. In terms of presentation and options, these releases exist as equals, but the newer of the two lacks an essential sports game characteristic. Even when mastered, TSB thrived because every down presented an uncertain challenge, be it navigating a broken blocking scheme or reading the oppon...
	Castlevania Double Pack review (GBA) Reviewed on July 04, 2006 After playing the disappointing Castlevania Double Pack, the "Castlevania" name now brings back memories of emasculated bishounen dunderheads, forgettable filler music, long empty hallways, and tiresome backtracking. Quite frankly, this cartridge makes me sad.
	The King of Fighters EX: Neoblood review (GBA) Reviewed on July 04, 2006 It confuses me as to how some of SNK’s most memorable characters, like Billy Kane and Duck King, get excluded, while the bland ones keep coming back.
	Shadow Hearts From the New World review (PS2) Reviewed on July 01, 2006 We’re here to take your pornography and sodomize our vast imaginations
	Call of Duty 2 review (PC) Reviewed on July 01, 2006 I absolutely loved the original Call of Duty, so I had incredibly high hopes for Call of Duty 2. As soon as the first screenshots came out for it, I instantly proclaimed that the game was going to be awesome and started talking non-stop about it. I’m not usually excited about too many games, but I had a lot of expectations for Call of Duty 2, which I’m sure you got from my first two sentences. Now you’re left wondering if the game lived up to my expectations.
	Devilish: The Next Possession review (GEN) Reviewed on July 01, 2006 It's such a genuinely zany concept that one wonders going in just how such a thing couldn't provide a quick burst of amusement. And it does. I actually chuckled at the wonderfully contrived story describing a prince and a princess turned into paddles by evil magic. The problem is that if you've played Breakout, you've played this, and while such things as zombies and boss fights add a little to the gameplay value, Bad Omen runs on its novelty. Once you get past that, the experience quickly loses its lustre.
	Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits review (PS2) Reviewed on July 01, 2006 Arc: Twilight of the Spirits often feels more about toil than reward.
	Gradius II: Gofer no Yabou review (NES) Reviewed on July 01, 2006 There are certain games for which one must wonder the usefulness of a review. Gradius II is one such game. Being an average-at-best Japan-only release from 1989, it is highly unlikely that any casual gamer will read this review and decide "Hey, I really want to play that game!" Conversely, if you're a big fan of the other Gradius games (or shooters in general), chances are very good that you've already played Gradius II. If you're not, then the odds are high that you won't be reading this. Gradi...
	Bulls vs. Blazers and the NBA Playoffs review (SNES) Reviewed on June 30, 2006 Bulls vs. Blazers sucked, sucks and will suck.
	Castlevania review (NES) Reviewed on June 30, 2006 Without a doubt, Castlevania is an esteemed series. While its sales aren't the greatest, the games still receive high acclaim from critics and hardcore gaming junkies alike (well, the 2D ones, anyway.) However, one thing that should be noted about the praise slavished upon Konami's long-running franchise is that almost all of it is directed to 1997's Symphony of the Night and its followups. That game combined a Metroid-esque sense of exploration with smooth controls and a gorgeous art direction,...
	Totally Rad review (NES) Reviewed on June 30, 2006 And so, young and awesome Jake sets off into the wild blue yonder, endeavoring to complete five whole stages of magic and mayhem, rescue Allison, rescue Allison’s father (no clue how he fits into things, other than to give Jake another reason to look like a big-shot in front of his girl) and spew out TOTALLY RAD dialogue, all of which I forced myself to forget as soon as the words left my screen.
	The Legend of Dragoon review (PSX) Reviewed on June 30, 2006 "This room is tidy. This shows a lot about this person's personality."
	New Super Mario Bros. review (DS) Reviewed on June 29, 2006 There is one particular thought that you should dismiss from your mind before reading a review or perhaps even going out to purchase this game. And that is, do not expect this to be along the same monumental line as Super Mario 64, Super Mario World, or even the first game Mario appeared on for that matter. Think of Mario’s latest venture as more of an anthology of sorts; an assemblage of positive features from his best games, spanning over the last twenty years.
	Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition review (PSP) Reviewed on June 28, 2006 I’ll tell you about Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition just as soon as it finishes loading. It’ll probably finish in a few seconds...or minutes. In the meantime, uh, how are you? What have you been doing? Working a lot? Oh wait, I think it’s done. Wait, nope, it’s still loading. It’ll be just a little bit more. I apologize. The longer it loads, the better it must be, right?!
