    Keith Courage In Alpha Zones review

    Firstly, the story: we are to help a young Keith defend his world from B.A.D. - Beastly Alien Dudes. Though you are no doubt thinking to yourself how powerful an acronym that is, there are those, such as myself, who find it corny, and…

    J.J. & Jeff review

    Much of this title's humour was deemed inappropriate for North American audiences at the time of its release, though it will seem tame now. Thus, in bringing JJ & Jeff over from Japan, someone undoubtedly felt they were doing us all a huge…

    XIII review

    David Duchovny probably never imagined himself as a voice actor. The former star of the popular X-Files series that aired on Fox a few years back probably never expected the scope of his acting career to be limited to mystery/dramas…

    Seicross review

    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…

    Medal of Honor review

    ''omg itz liek a savving privut ryen vidao gam!!1!1'' That's what many people ridiculously claim Medal of Honor is - a video game version of Saving Private Ryan. I don't know where people get that idea, as the two are quite different…

    Dynasty Warriors 2 review

    Yes it’s flawed, but there’s something satisfying about this chaotic 3-D beat ‘em up all the same. Dynasty Warriors 2 is loosely based on actual historical events that took place in 3rd century A.D. China, during the period commonly…

    R-Type DX review

    Irem managed to shrink down almost everything and present their flagship's first two strikes intact. It's amazing to hear the music so true to the arcade, to feel that the control is as tight as it is in its console big brothers, and to…

    Insector X review

    This isn't the Insector X, from the arcade, that also made the trip to the NES. Gone are the stupidly cutesy characters, replaced by a more serious bunch. The game is still a lame horizontal shooter though - that much hasn't changed.

    Image Fight review

    Image Fight is a vertical arcade shooter that saw life on the P.C. Engine as well. Common to both installments is the title's obscurity, but only the PC Engine version is actually fun to play. It's hard enough, looks and sounds good…

    Baseball Mogul 2003 review

    Let me start off by saying that if you are looking for great graphics and being able to control all the on-field action, this game is not for you. This game may seem simple, especially with there being next to no pictures. But this is a…

    Mario Kart: Double Dash!! review

    There's never a moment while playing Mario Kart: Double Dash where you'll pause the game to catch your breath and question how you can be experiencing such a masterpiece. However, early reports of the game being a major disappointment are…

    Vigilante review

    While it's often compared to Double Dragon, Vigilante is really more of an update to the kitsch classic, Kung Fu, for the NES. It's similar in that some of the burly toughs are limited to holding you in some kind of vitality-draining bear…

    The Cyber Shinobi review

    If you listen carefully, you can almost hear old man Musashi rolling in his grave.

    Street Fighter Alpha 3 review

    Street Fighter is really the only fighting series I like. The whole genre just seems boring and stale to me, but somehow this series defies that. As much as I enjoy my SNES cart, I was still only cautiously optimistic about this game. Yet…

    Final Fantasy IX review

    Every review should be able to answer one simple and obvious question. Is the game fun? And yet, when I look at this game, the ninth in a highly acclaimed series (and a series I enjoy), I find it hard to answer that question. On the one…

    Final Fantasy VII review

    When it comes to hyped up games, you will often get a polarizing effect amongst the people who play it. Most will call it the most perfect game ever, while a select few will claim the game is absolute rubbish and not worth touching. And…

    Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg review

    This game has to be the biggest disappointment I've had in a long while. When I heard about Billy Hatcher, I was immediately convinced it was going to be a great game and I waited for it to come out, expecting a great hit from the makers…
