	Arkanoid review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Arkanoid goes by many names. Some call it Breakthru. Some call it Hit the Wall. Still others call it, “that game with the ball and paddle where you break the blocks but it's not Pong.” Whatever you personally decide to call it, Arkanoid is proof that you don't need complicated gameplay, graphics, or sound to deliver fun.
	Final Fantasy X review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown The latest instalment of the Final Fantasy series, FFX, is truly a work of art. The graphics are great; characters are spectacular, and the story as in-depth as ever. The game introduces many new things into the series. Square kept the limit break or power break idea, only this time it is called overdrive. Perhaps one of the more noticeable additions is voice acting. There are also many apparent changes with the battle, ability, and equipment systems. I will address them individually:
	Battletoads review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown In Battletoads, you play the role of one of three big, huge, mutated toad creature. Your girlfriend has been kidnapped by the evil Dark Queen, and you must battle though eight chaoctic stages to save her. The plot, like most pre-Genesis action games, is Gouda-level cheesy at best.
	Rune: Viking Warlord review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown RUNE: Viking Warlord is a neat game. In a way the game is similar to TombRaider, only in this game one takes on the role of Ragnar, a Viking, and you are seeking vengeance for your fathers death. The story is mildly developed, but that’s all right. Adventure games generally don’t have very in-depth stories anyway. At the very beginning of the game, the opening sequence gives a brief story, explaining a bit about the world you are about to enter. It also tells you about Ragnarok, but if you aren’...
	Contra review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Ah, to be back in the sweet days of Contra. Back in the 80's, when Run DMC and Aerosmith ruled the charts, when Ronald Reagen was President, when gaming was a much simpler hobby.
	Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown In case you aren’t familiar with the series, let me tell you a bit about it. The Tony Hawk Pro Skater series is arguably the best skateboarding game to date. While slightly unrealistic because you can bang yourself up really bad and walk—skate away like nothing happened. But honestly, the game would be far too hard if you could injure yourself realistically. You can choose to skate as a number of different pro skateboarders, like Tony Hawk, Elissa Streamer, Bucky Lasek, Kareem Cambell, and so on...
	Deadly Towers review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown If you're one of those sick individuals who likes to play the worst games of a system and then worship them as if they were great, then Deadly Towers might actually appeal to you.
	Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown In Deja Vu, you play the role of Ace Harding, private detective. You wake up in a bathroom, remembering nothing of your past, not even your name. To top it all off, you're being framed for a murder case. Your task is to remember your identity and to clear your name.
	Dr. Mario review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Someone that feisty Italian plumber has made it through medical school and become a doctor. He now doles out pills, helping to quell the viruses in his labratory.
	Shenmue review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown In the vast universe of gaming, there are some titles that are about as shallow as a children's swimming pool at a YMCA. And on the other hand, there are titles that are so vast that the Pacific Ocean wouldn't even match in comparison. Shenmue for the Sega Dreamcast is just that deep.
	Dragon Warrior review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Should Dragon Warrior be graded differently because it's such an old game? It's an interesting argument, but it's not particularily valid. The NES is so antiquated that better RPG's can be acquired for it.
	Dragon Warrior II review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Overall, Dragon Warrior 2 was a giant step forward from past efforts on the NES. Today, it's hardly a revolutionary game, but it still provides some good fun if you can find a copy.
	Crazy Taxi review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown The Sega developer formally known as AM2 makes some of the greatest games, as well as the most original. Now they have released the arcade racer Crazy Taxi--a fun and stylish arcade game--and it's one of the must-play games for the Dreamcast. It is not, however, a must-buy.
	Dragon Warrior III review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown While not the leap that the fourth installment is, it provides a new gaming experience set in the Dragon Warrior universe. If you're a fan of role playing games, then you can do a lot worse then Dragon Warrior 3.
	Cyber Troopers Virtual On: Oratorio Tangram review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Never having played the first Virtual On, I can't compare it with the Dreamcast Virutal On. This can be good or bad for a number of reasons. But this review will be from a gamer that's basically new to the mech fighting genre (Armored Core wasn't for me). Virtual On is a game about robots fighting. Yes, it's shallow, and I have to be blunt. There is no story, just several robots kicking the crap out of each other. Yet strategy is involved, so this game is deep. Very deep. The casual gamer may be...
	Final Fantasy review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown It receives a lot of acclaim simply because of the name that it carries. It has very little to do with the other games in the series.
	Bloody Roar 3 review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown However, this game is the next Killer Instinct, one that will keep you shouting obsenities at your friend when he tears you apart with Alice the Rabbit. But if you're one of those gamers that spontainiously combusts when exposed to direct sunlight, thus lacking many friends, this is not the game for you.
	Galaga review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Any price under seven million dollars is well worth it to play this faboo game.
	Bust A Groove review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown This game is good for alot of things, a fresh new look on gaming, fun for parties, or showing to your girlfriend when she says you can't dance. I'd say rent this game first no matter how much I love it, because theres always games I love that other people despise, Pokemon for example.
	Godzilla: Monster of Monsters review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Is Godzilla an awful game? Nah. That being said, it's not good either. Godzilla is probably only worth playing if you're a fan of the Godzilla movies, or monster battling games in general.
