	Drakengard review (PS2) Reviewed on August 06, 2005 Caim and his fire-breathing friend will travel down a long road that brings them nothing but pain and misery, with death comprising the only means through which to achieve peace of mind. Ultimately, all that they can do is make sure they deal an equitable amount of grief to their adversaries in turn.	5/5
	Madou Monogatari I: Honoo no Sotsuenko review (TGCD) Reviewed on July 30, 2005 Arle: HA HA HA!	5/5
	Castlevania: Bloodlines review (GEN) Reviewed on June 11, 2005 Castlevania: Bloodlines, the Genesis’ lone foray into the CV realm, suffered the misfortune of being released during the same era of gaming as effect-laden Super Castlevania IV and mythical Rondo of Blood. Reluctantly playing the hapless third sister of the two aforementioned legends, Bloodlines pulls off a marvelous Cinderella story, giving Genesis owners a CV saga that can proudly stand alongside its majestic siblings.	4/5
	World of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse & Donald Duck review (GEN) Reviewed on February 04, 2005 Following the primitive flop that was Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle but prior to Sonic’s high-speed assault on the gaming market, Sega released another cute platformer, a slow burner that won over many a player’s heart without the slightest bit of hype. Sales didn’t tell the whole story: Castle of Illusion received the same sort of lavish praise that Sonic the Hedgehog garnered, and is thought of in the same fond light to this very day by those who were prudent enough to...	3.5/5
	Dragon Knight II review (TGCD) Reviewed on January 10, 2005 Enter the realm of Phoenix and take a brief look at your surroundings. You’ll see them hanging around the town cemetery, serving drinks at the crowded tavern, standing by idly as transactions take place within the local shops. Girls with blonde hair, girls with blue hair, and girls with green hair. Girls dressed elegantly and girls dressed in bunny outfits. Cute girls. Sly girls. Vivacious girls. Beautiful girls. And not a man in sight.	5/5
	Metroid II: Return of Samus review (GB) Reviewed on January 01, 2005 Label me elitist, dub me curmudgeonly, call me “old school” to a fault. Certainly, I originally purchased Metroid II out of a sense of obligation -- the cart being the follow-up to my favorite NES game -- and with little desire to actually enjoy myself while playing it. I perceived injustice being done -- I allowed myself to view this black-and-white atrocity as little more than an outright insult to an undeniable classic, an effort lacking in heart as much as in hype from a...	4.5/5
	Crimson Tears review (PS2) Reviewed on September 06, 2004 Considering the scant advertising and minimal hype that accompanied the release of Crimson Tears, I think it's safe to say that Capcom determined the project's chances of succeeding to have been dubious at best. But let's suppose for a moment that the corporation's head honchos turned their attention from Viewtiful Joe ports and Resident Evil rehashes, and decided to give this little beat 'em up a bit of support. Their efforts likely would have focused on the gorgeous cel-shaded visuals that T...	3.5/5
