The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time review (N64)Reviewed on Date UnknownIf I have one major gripe with this game, it is the perspective from which you play. (Well, that and the ANNOYING little faerie who flits around being a complete airhead.) Sometimes it became difficult or impossible to really see what I was doing due to the perspective. |

Dragon Warrior III review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownDragon Warrior III is easily one of the greatest triumphs on the Nintendo Entertainment System, a gem that sparkles even in an age where all the other games on the block have larger assets. Not so much a game as an experience, this is one RPG that you owe it to yourself if the term 'role-playing' excites you even a little. |

Godzilla 2: War of the Monsters review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownThe RTS genre on the NES is bad, but it's not even worth hunting for this game. It's really that bad. |

Final Fantasy Anthology review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownHowever, another massive mistake Square made was in the emulation of the Super Nintendo games onto the Playstation format. There's tremendous lag time between when you push a button, and when you see the results on screen. It can take up to ten seconds to get in or out of the menu screen. |

Final Fantasy IX review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownI laughed, and even cried a little, at various points in the game. Not since Final Fantasy VI have I gotten so totally sucked into a game. This game will be within easy reach of my Playstation for a long, long time. |

The Legend of Zelda review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownThe gameplay experience that you get from the game is still fresh to this date, and there's nothing quite like the sense of exhiliration you get from beating Ganon all by yourself. |

Final Fantasy VII review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownFinal Fantasy VII was Square's first attempt at a Final Fantasy for the Playstation. As an RPG, as a game, I suppose one could classify it as average. But given that Final Fantasy has a history of truly extraordinary games, ''average'' is hardly a compliment. |

Mega Man 2 review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownMega Man 2 wasn't the start of the (some would call great) Mega Man series, however, it did improve slightly upon the original. It offers a new cast of characters, but still keeps the traditional elements that made the original so popular. |

Final Fantasy VIII review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownLike the Materia system, you lose spells when you change Junctions and magic around. And I tend to forget who has what spell, so I go to have Rinoa cast Aura, and find out that not only did I give all of her Aura to Quistis, but Quistis isn't in my party. AAAAAAACK! |

Final Fantasy review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownLooking at the game with modern eyes, it's easy to see a number of flaws in almost every aspect. The world map is too small. The graphics are bland at times, gaudy at others. There isn't enough diversity in the soundtrack. Monsters are too easily defeated in some instances, too challenging in others. There isn't enough variety. These are all flaws that can't be ignored. But here's the good news: they mostly don't matter. |

Mega Man 3 review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownIt was also an omen of things to come from Capcom, also known as the ''Let's bleed all of our series dry!'' company. |

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownAh, I'm sure we all remember the glory days of Iron Mike Tyson, back in the day when he was a firery young fighter who raised himself from the gutters, the unstoppable force, a human hurricane of lefts and rights. |

The Legend of Dragoon review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownThe Additions system was all right, but the Dragoon magic really annoyed me. First of all, in order to use the right spells, you have to have the right person in your party. There is no way for Meru to use a Fire spell, or for Albert to use a Thunder spell. |

Monopoly review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownAll in all, Monopoly is a great port of the board game. Anybody looking for anything else will be severely disappointed though. |

Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete review (PSX)Reviewed on Date UnknownEach character has conflicts to resolve, both outer and inner--such as the, uh, tempestuous relationship between Jessica and Kyle . . . Also, something else I appreciated is the fact that the characters were mainly original, and not stereotypes. |

Final Fantasy II review (SNES)Reviewed on Date UnknownI pride myself on my ability to guess plot twists, and some of the events in this game caught me totally by surprise. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of plot revealed in this game. After I finished the game, I was disappointed that I was finished--I wanted it to just keep going. |

Pinbot review (NES)Reviewed on Date UnknownEven then, I'd recommend the ancient Pinball over this clunker. It's cheaper, easier to find, and just as enjoyable. |

Final Fantasy III review (SNES)Reviewed on Date UnknownThe Espers were another thing I loved. They were as powerful as Rydia's Summoned Monsters from FF4, but more useful in that they taught you spells. I also happened to love the spells (but then, is there anything I DON'T love about this game?) |
