	Grand Theft Auto: Vice City review (PS2) Reviewed on November 09, 2002 It was back in the days of the PlayStation that Rockstar Games first gave us a taste of the criminal lifestyle in Grand Theft Auto. For many, the game was just too controversial, while for some it lacked direction, and for others it was too graphically lacking. But quite a few people also loved the game because of the open ended nature of it. You could literally choose your own path through the game. At the time, this kind of freedom was almost unheard of. The game admittedly looked awful, but t...
	Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies review (PS2) Reviewed on November 04, 2002 For those unfamiliar with the series, AC4 is the latest instalment of Namco’s successful arcade flyer, anyone looking for a flight sim need not apply here.
	Blinx: The Time Sweeper review (XBX) Reviewed on November 04, 2002 Blinx: The Time Sweeper. Sounds really odd, doesn't it? A cat who can manipulate time? Kinda odd, huh? Well, yes. But it is really fun to play.You take control of Blinx, a time cat, who is on a mission to destroy time monsters and save the princess. Before you write this one off as a Mario clone, let me tell you about his special ablities. Blinx can collect time crystals to give him the power to manipulate time. He can pause, fast forward, rewind, record, and slow time like your average VCR. He ...
	Super Solvers: Treasure Mountain review (PC) Reviewed on September 02, 2002 All of us remember our first videogame. For some of us, it is a game like Mario or Pong, for others some unknown game for the PC, or possibly a game on the Intellivision. While that game may not be loved by many, for us our original game holds an important place in our heart. Super Solvers: Treasure Mountain is that game to me, and sure enough it is special to me. Now very few of you know of this game, and fewer still probably loved it like I did. But for me, this was my childhood and my introdu...
	Raptor review (PC) Reviewed on August 28, 2002 Your plane lurches to the right, out of the volley fire of the incoming warship. Missile after missile pummels the body of the warship, imbedding it deeply with spikes before exploding. This barely chips the paint of the massive death cruiser, and it returns fire with an arsenal that would make George ''Dubyah'' Bush envious.
	Return Fire review (PSX) Reviewed on August 27, 2002 A game I played back in the 8th grade when it was still sorta new, this 7-year-old Playstaion game had me hooked when I rented it from Blockbuster back in middle school. You've probably never heard of it, or if you have, probably don't really remember it.
	The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening review (GB) Reviewed on August 26, 2002 The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening
	Jet Force Gemini review (N64) Reviewed on August 26, 2002 Jet Force Gemini
	Chrono Cross review (PSX) Reviewed on August 26, 2002 Chrono Cross is the sequel to Chrono Trigger of SNES fame. Chrono Trigger followed the story of Crono and friends as they ventured through time in search of a way to prevent a parasitic life form known as Lavos from destroying the world in 1999. As the journey almost comes to a close, in the final showdown with Lavos's true and final form, shocking realizations occur about their existence and fate to their planet's well-being.

	Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island review (SNES) Reviewed on August 26, 2002 Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
	Cabal review (NES) Reviewed on August 25, 2002 This game is a simple 3rd person shooter, where you take out loads of enemies at a time. That is the whole point of Cabal, mass killing. I LOVED this game, as it had the best 2-player out of any game on the entire original Nintendo Entertainment System. With all my modern systems I have today, I still play Cabal when my friend Paul comes over, because we have been doing this for at least five years now. It is like a tradition, cause it is a hilariously fun game, and there is no waiting between c...
	Chrono Trigger review (SNES) Reviewed on August 23, 2002 If you are a fan of the classic games, then most likely you have heard of Chrono Trigger. Very few games were more succesful and had more cult fans than one of Squares greatest accomplishes. Square is most known for their Final Fantasy series, however those are not the only RPG's they created. They also created Crono Trigger, as one of their last games for the SNES. It was a typical RPG, except that you could see your enemies before battle and it had an innovative time system. The idea for Crono...
	Super Mario Kart review (SNES) Reviewed on August 21, 2002 Now for this review to be honestly fair, you must understand where I am coming from. I was not one of the ones who had experience Super Mario Kart when it was first released, nor before I had even played it's sequel. I only got it around three months ago when I got my Super Nintendo, seeing I wanted the original Mario Kart. I was kinda dissapointed with the experience but that is understandable. I will try to understand this game when it was originally released, but really I guess I can't. Howev...
	Devil May Cry review (PS2) Reviewed on August 19, 2002 I know millions of people will be up and arms when I say this, but I think Devil May Cry was Capcoms greatest achievement. Here me out before you go out and get your pitchforks and torches. Anybody can play Devil May Cry, and anyone can have fun with it. There is only one real flaw in the game, and it is a great experience nonetheless. There is a simple combination of strategy, skill, and a large handful of pure action. A great combination for a quick pickup, and loads of fun.
	Zelda II: The Adventure of Link review (NES) Reviewed on August 16, 2002 The Adventure of Link is not at all like the original. They combined a 3D world with 2D areas. The fighting is more similiar to Castlevania then it is to the original Zelda. Really I do not understand why the original NES always changed the sequels so drastically from an already succesful formula. This is my least favorite Zelda game, for it could've been much better and I did not like how the game worked out, and the strange story.
	Donkey Kong Land review (GB) Reviewed on August 14, 2002 Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong had hit the scene in Donkey Kong Country, and the world loved it. So quickly a gameboy game was created with the same characters and the same idea as Donkey Kong Country. Surprisingly enough, however, it was not a complete port of the SNES version, and actually it was a completely different game. That is for better of for worse, for Donkey Kong Country was a better game, but that is because there was so much more put into it. However this was the original gameboy, and ...
	Super Mario World review (SNES) Reviewed on August 08, 2002 Of course when the SNES was released it had to debut with a character that all the world had grown to know. That character was Mario, who had appeared in four games adventure games before the SNES was ever born. Mario was the SNES mascot, and he rivaled Sonic of Sega. So here we go, the game that made the Super Nintendo a must own when it first debut, and a great video game too. Super Mario World was one of the peaks in Mario's industry, and a fun experience.
	Final Fantasy IX review (PSX) Reviewed on August 05, 2002 The Final Fantasy tradition continues for me. Each Final Fantasy game I play one ups the game I played before it. I thought it would end with Final Fantasy VII, such a great game that was, not likely to be beaten. And yet through the entire game Final Fantasy IX was right on it's tail, and it overthrew it with the perfect ending. See, you are basically buying a $20 movie with Final Fantasy IX, and a little bit of fun also. However I can think of millions of movies that are worse than the story s...
