	Maze Craze: A Game of Cops And Robbers review (A2600) Reviewed on December 14, 2003 Maze Craze. That's something I've never had. I've never been a big fan of mazes in video games, especially the ones that are timed. It's too easy to get lost, and many are hard enough to have you pulling out enough of your hair to detect a growing bald spot within minutes.	4.5/5
	Seicross review (NES) Reviewed on December 03, 2003 They always tell you not to judge a book by its cover. Well, nobody's ever told me not to judge a video game by its label! That's just what I did with Seicross. Jeremy Scott, my best friend at the time, was the lucky owner of this game that had a label that caught my eye right away. It's a mossy sort of green with bikers crashing into each other while a futuristic background encircles them. Before I knew it, Seicross was all I cared about during my stay at my friend's house. Forget all the other...	4/5
	Super Metroid review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Putting into words how great of a game Super Metroid is, is a difficult task. Back in the sometimes gloomy, sometimes upbeat days of 1994, it was rare to find a game that had both a breathtaking adventure full of thrilling gameplay that also featured an enchanting storyline (most other adventures used the worn out damsel in distress tag instead of something original).	5/5
	Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Back in the blazingly arid days of the summer of '96 when the glorious Super Nintendo was reaching its end and the Nintendo 64 was right around the corner, Super Mario RPG showed its role-playing face to the world.	5/5
	Super Mario All-Stars review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Fans of the Super Mario Bros. games for the NES rejoice! Super Mario All-Stars is one game that almost every Nintendo fan absolutely had to have when it first came out. I already had all three of the classic platformers for the NES, but I still wanted it just as bad as anyone. Why did everyone want this game so bad? Easy, because it has Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 2, and Super Mario Bros. 3 all in one cartridge! It also has a game that most people (including myself) hadn't ever played c...	4.5/5
	Street Fighter II Turbo review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 StormyWeather980: Streets of Rage 2 is my favorite fighting game of all time.	5/5
	Mickey Mania: The Timeless Adventures of Mickey Mouse review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 There were a lot of great platformers for the Super Nintendo, and Mickey Mania is one of them. Mickey Mania is not only a great platformer, it has something a little extra for anybody who's a huge fan of the old Mickey Mouse cartoons.	4/5
	Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 The film industry has become notorious over the years for making movie sequels that hardly ever live up to the original. Predator was an instant action movie classic in the late 80's, and it deserved a superb sequel. What did it get? A boring, terrible piece of crap follow-up that doesn't even deserve the title, Predator 2. Other great movies, such as Batman, had an impressive sequel or two, but movie makers just wouldn't leave the series alone and let it remain in good standing. Instead, they d...	5/5
	Donkey Kong Country review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Isn't it amazing how a picture can take you back to the good old days when you didn't have a worry in the world, or drag you back to a depressing time that you wish you could forget? No matter what the current times or surroundings were, capturing them in a photograph can preserve the memories forever. When images of Donkey Kong Country come to mind, I see not only the first SNES game I ever owned, but also a revolutionary platformer that is impossible to forget.	4.5/5
	Disney's Aladdin review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 While a lot of Disney movies have had a plot that was pretty farfetched (i.e. The Jungle Book, Sword in the Stone, Dumbo), Aladdin's story was one that could actually happen in real life. Aladdin, a poor boy, is used to being a thief in order to get food and to live to see the next day. He meets and falls in love with Jasmine, who just happens to be a princess, and his world is completely changed. Aladdin for the Super Nintendo follows the same storyline as the movie, so yep, it's yet another on...	3.5/5
	Biker Mice From Mars review (SNES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Don't you just love it when you accidentally discover something? It's a hot summer day and you're walking down the street or swimming to the bottom of the deep end of the pool as your ears clog up begging to be popped and you find a few dollar bills. It's only a few bucks, but you feel as hyped as a millionaire because you can now buy yourself an ice cream cone or maybe even a video game off of eBay.	4.5/5
	Activision Classic Games review (PSX) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 The first time I saw Activision Classics in stores, I thought I was dreaming, but I wasn't. Needless to say, I bought the game the second I saw it after seeing the lineup of Atari 2600 classics and Atari 2600 unknowns that it had to offer.	4/5
	Rodent's Revenge review (PC) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 The very first time cats and mice laid eyes on each other centuries ago, both animals knew that until the end of time they would be ruthless opposites that would never get along. Cats don't actually hate mice. They love them. Every time a cat even hears the sharp claws or teeth of a mouse, its stomach starts rumbling like a tremoring earthquake and its mouth fills up with enough saliva to drown Lake Michigan. When a feline actually sees one of those pesky rodents, it takes off just like a rocket...	3/5
	Rattler Race review (PC) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Note: Rattler Race is not a free game; it's Shareware.	4.5/5
	Namco Museum 64 review (N64) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Retro arcade gamers unite! I had been waiting for a game like Namco Museum 64 for a long time when I first saw it on the shelves. Namco Museum 64 is a collection of a few of the best known and most played arcade hits of the 80s. Included in the compilation is Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga, Galaxian, Pole Position, and Dig Dug. Anybody who ever went to an arcade in the 80s or early 90s is sure to recognize just about all six of these surefire classics right away.	4/5
	Monster Truck Madness 64 review (N64) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Being a fan of watching monster trucks such as Big Foot, Snakebite, and others race and do carnage on TV since I was a kid, Monster Truck Madness 64 was at the top of my list of games to play when it was first released. Unfortunately, I was in store for a big surprise for the worst.	2/5
	Mario Golf review (N64) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 What is it about Mario games? One could go on and on about how Super Mario Bros. pretty much saved the video game industry from becoming nothing more than a fading memory. What other mascot could possibly make a game in which a baby cries all the time and gets on your last nerve, fun? Mario's magical charm goes beyond the classic platformers that nearly all of us know by heart. Super Mario Kart invented a whole new genre (kart racing), and it's still my absolute favorite game that has Mario's na...	5/5
	Donkey Kong 64 review (N64) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 Welcome back, Kongs!	3.5/5
	Diddy Kong Racing review (N64) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 While sitting quietly on his tree house porch one day, Diddy Kong decided to read a letter that he had received awhile back. The letter was from Timber the tiger, one of Diddy's old friends. The short, but meaningful letter read: ''Dear Diddy, help!!!'' It turned out that an almighty and oversized pig called Wizpig has done something not so pleasant. Therefore, it's up to Diddy and a bunch of his fellow animal friends to try and find this mysterious creature called Wizpig and give him what he de...	5/5
	Toki review (NES) Reviewed on November 01, 2003 It's just another sunny, peaceful day and you're lying down on the ground alongside your girlfriend, Miho (kinky as it may be, that's her actual name), as a serene mountain overlooks you in the background. Out of the blue, a powerful sorcerer pops out of nowhere and zaps Toki, turning him into a monkey and taking his treasured girlfriend away from him. Now it's up to Toki to make the journey through a few dangerous worlds as he ultimately seeks a fight against the ruthless being that just stole ...	4.5/5
