Dragon Quest V: Tenkuu no Hanayome review (SNES)Reviewed on July 12, 2007There comes a time in everyone's life when they reflect back on their accomplishments and question if what they've worked so hard for has truly been worthwhile. For the hero of this tale, the silent, violet-clad, nameless (until you give him one anyway) protagonist has had quite a lot to reflect upon. His mother disappeared early in his life, and he was raised by his father, who traveled with him all over kingdom come. So much, in fact, that our young hero, a mere five years of age, can't even r... |

The Barbie Diaries: High School Mystery review (GBA)Reviewed on July 11, 2007If you ever get around to playing The Barbie Diaries: High School Mystery, then your health and safety may be at risk. As the warning screen at the start says, you need to read the Health and Safety Precautions Booklet before you start the game, because the last thing we need are people having heart attacks or exploding. Barbie demands it. |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles review (C64)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was one of the hottest franchises of the eighties(and slightly, the nineties). Quickly, Ultra worked at releasing a game for multiple systems that was based on these young heroes. One version hit the NES and fans cheered. Another of these versions hit the Commodore 64, and Commodore fans cheered...for about thirty seconds, I assume. Simply put, this is NOT the C-64 game that fans were looking for at all... |

Frightmare review (C64)Reviewed on July 11, 2007A realm of shadows and horrors awaits those who insert the disk containing this game into their system. But will those nightmares follow you after you turn the computer off? |

The Darkness review (X360)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Going past the main menu and into the first chapter of The Darkness, I had little idea what would be in store for me as the purchase came on a whim. It's going to sound a little peculiar, but The Darkness unfolds its pages to you with an introduction sequence that could honestly be the most exhilarating, well planned opening of any genre's game in the past number of years, bar none. I wouldn't guess that's what any gamer would generally be expecting of a standard fare first person ... |

Splashdown review (XBX)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Splashdown, a game developed by Rainbow Studios released in the United States in mid-2002 portrays the sport of Jet Skiing in a race-style atmosphere. The basic point of the game is to race against many other computer characters and, upon a certain number of wins in these larger races (usually comprised of many racers) you will get to challenge a character in a one-on-one match. Upon winning the race against this specific character, he or she will become a member of your team and you will have... |

Pocky & Rocky with Becky review (GBA)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Ah, yes. You were one of the players with nostalgia in your eyes as you picked up a copy of Pocky & Rocky With Becky. Memories of the older games gave you hope...strength. How much did you pay for it? 15-20$? And what did you trade it in for when you returned in later that day or the next? Huh? Why do I ask this? Because no reasonable person would have kept this horrid excuse for ''fun''! |

Dark Arena review (GBA)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Dark Arena had plenty going for it to make me buy it. It's a 3-D Shooter. It was cheap(GBA games are usually cheaper than ''console'' games). It talked about of multiple weapons and skill levels. It talked challenging A.I. It talked....too much. It told me it would give me more than it could. Where did it fail me? Let's start, shall we? |

Express Raider review (C64)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Your job in this game is to successfully rob a multitude of trains. Unfortunately, it isn't as easy as a ride as the manual and box make it out to be... |

Avoid the Noid review (C64)Reviewed on July 11, 2007Oh gee, the Noid. Certainly a lost character of pop culture such as this would denote a classic and entertaining experience... |

Brothers in Arms DS review (DS)Reviewed on July 11, 2007World Wars I and II are events that will forever be etched into the memories of human kind. The calamities tore apart many great nations and brought about a harsh reality to those living in its wake. The brave souls that fought for their countries in countless battle, who went through unimaginable hardships, striving to make ends meet through a combination of strategy, mortar fire and lady luck - thinking about these soldiers, these Brothers in Arms, incites feelings of courage, patriot... |

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter review (X360)Reviewed on July 10, 2007"Well, what's the difference between a faulty plan and strategy that's getting just as many troops killed?" |

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 review (GEN)Reviewed on July 10, 2007After two successful Sonic adventures on the Mega Drive, it was inevitably going to be debatable on how Sega could improve Sonic further in his third outing. Originally planned as being an isometric 3D game (like Sonic 3D), the idea was scrapped for being too radical a change. Nonetheless, Sonic 3 changed some of the ideas of the traditional Sonic approach of high-speed racing through levels with a more cautious approach with plenty of traps and obstacles, whilst introducing various level... |

Space Invaders review (A2600)Reviewed on July 09, 2007Most whom stumble upon this review probably don't even know what an arcade is. No no, not those gambling stations full of slot machines, the ones that quickly went out of style in the 80's or early 90's that were chock full of fun video game cabinets. One way the Atari 2600 made a lasting name for itself was by porting many of the best arcade classics to the homes of millions. Hey, maybe that's why arcades began dying off around that time? Just a few of these gems that were made into great home ... |

Elmo in Grouchland review (GBC)Reviewed on July 09, 2007Of all the insane plots a movie could possible have, one of the most insane is that of 'Elmo in Grouchland'. Elmo, a furry character from the Sesame Street franchise, has dropped his blanket into a bin, that leads to the mystical land of Grouchland. Grouchland is a horrible place built mainly from old garbage and Elmo must trek across fast food wrapper mountains, and plastic bottle forests in order to get his blanket back. Despite the film being a relative flop at the box office, a game was prod... |

Pokemon Play It v2 review (PC)Reviewed on July 09, 2007As you remove your opponent's card from play and place it in his or her discard pile, you feel invincible. You place your hand next to your overturned prize card. Holding your breath, you flip over the card, and it's a Charizard! Now you can evolve your Pokemon and defeat your opponent once and for all! |

Pacific Warriors II: Dogfight review (PS2)Reviewed on July 09, 2007One of the most gruesome battles in World War Two was the battle for the pacific ocean. The Americans and the Japanese fought at sea, and in the air. Pacific Warriors 2: Dogfight allows you to become an aircraft pilot and help your allies take control of the pacific. You can choose between flying for the USA, or for Japan. In each campaign, you must complete missions, which range from simple dogfights in the air, to a controlled bombing of the enemy's airbase runway. |

Pokémon Battle Revolution review (WII)Reviewed on July 08, 2007As dusk falls over the city of Poketopia, the streets are abuzz with activity. People of all ages wander through the brightly lit streets, gazing at the all the flashing neon lights, massive balloon floats, and plenty of other distractions. Children are happily guzzling down soda and cotton candy, dragging their parents from one store window to the next. Clean-cut street vendors are wandering around with just about every souvenir possible, be it an “I <3 Pokemon” t-shirt to an assortment of jang... |

The Lord of the Rings: Tactics review (PSP)Reviewed on July 08, 2007Electronic Arts seem to be exploiting the 'Lord of the Rings' franchise to it's full. However, you may be surprised to hear that the first Lord of the Rings game released for the Playstation Portable is not an action adventure, but a turn based strategy one. You'll be directing your forces throughout many levels to victory and you'll be responsible for the future of Middle Earth. |

Art Alive review (GEN)Reviewed on July 08, 2007On almost every gaming platform under the sun, there are a variety of titles that do not really fall under the category of a game. Art Alive is one of these titles. Art Alive is a painting program that allows you to create and draw your own masterpieces. It really is like the Sega version of Microsoft Paint. There's only one problem. For a drawing program, it's not even that good. |
