	Bubble Bobble review (NES) Reviewed on Date Unknown Every once in a while, there comes a game that becomes an instant classic. Games like this last for years without dying down as they are enjoyed by people of all different ages. Bubble Bobble turned out to be one of these games. Taito originally released this legend as an arcade game in 1986. Due to its increasing popularity, Bubble Bobble was later released on many different computers and systems, including the NES. While the NES port suffers in a few areas, it still deserves a hi...
	Final Fantasy Anthology review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown I think the games could have been a little harder, just to make things a little more interesting. But games like Final Fantasy 8 that require many, many, many hits against the bad guys in order to defeat them make me appreciate this game's challenge level more.
	Shenmue II review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Shenmue II is well worth a purchase if you want an engrossing story, backed up with some stunning set-pieces, strong characterisation, and ducks.
	Grandia II review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown Grandia 2 benefits strongly from the lack of competition on the Dreamcast. It's just that simple. If Grandia 2 was on the Playstation, it would be dwarved by other, better role playing games.
	Final Fantasy VIII review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown The music is uninteresting for the most part (with the slight exception of a few good songs), and the graphics leave much to be desired. It can be fun at times, but most of the time the game seems like a chore.
	Marvel vs. Capcom 2 review (DC) Reviewed on Date Unknown If you're even a remote fan of Marvel comic books, Capcom fighting games, or fighting games in general, then this game has something to offer to you.
	The Granstream Saga review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown Maybe this game was just poorly translated. The game is so linear, I don't think you really have a choice as to what you want to do (reminds me of the first 11-13 hours of Final Fantasy 7, where you're in that power plant). I literally want to scream while playing this game.
	NBA Hangtime review (N64) Reviewed on Date Unknown One question pops into mind when playing this game - How can a game that was so fun, so fast, and so easy to play be turned into THIS hideous awful crap?
	Wild Arms review (PSX) Reviewed on Date Unknown It's also great for someone who doesn't want to get entangled in a more-complicated RPG like Lunar, with all the elaborate video sequences and character parts. This is a core RPG. It has most of the RPG elements without all the flash.
	Goldeneye 007 review (N64) Reviewed on Date Unknown When the Nintendo 64 struggled a bit after it's lightning fast start, some people started looking around for a savior. Thankfully, Goldeneye came along, and provided ultra-fast and fun first-person shooter (FPS) gameplay for the Nintendo 64 crowd.
	Grand Theft Auto III review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown Playstation 2 owners certainly have a lot of reasons to be happy this past year. 2001 saw the release of several great titles like Final Fantasy X, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 and Metal Gear Solid 2. While these are great games, there is one title in particular that I believe is Game of the Year: Grand Theft Auto 3.
	Doom 64 review (N64) Reviewed on Date Unknown If there's a bad point about Doom, in some people's eyes, it's that the series remains largely unchanged. This game won't change their minds. However, if you have played a Doom game and enjoyed it, then give this one a shot. It's a pretty safe bet that you'll enjoy this one too.
	NFL 2K2 review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown For many years, there has really only been one name in console football simulations; that of John Madden and his excellent Electronic Arts’ title. Sure, there are other titles to choose from but Madden has always been so good, gamers instinctively stick to this series. But with the end of the Dreamcast, Sega Sports has decided to import it’s own football title to other systems. NFL2K2 might be the closest rival Madden has in the console world.
	Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire review (N64) Reviewed on Date Unknown Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire tries to be a first person shooter, a dogfighting flight game, and to have a successful game based on the Star Wars license. On the first two claims there's noticable shortcomings, and on the third claim, well, the fact that no one remembers this title...
	Oni review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown In fact, this was the first game where I've actually had to use the R3 and L3 buttons. Running and jumping is easy enough, but when it comes to maneuvering, you're screwed. The camera doesn't help this either, as it always seems to be in the wrong place.
	The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time review (N64) Reviewed on Date Unknown This was the game people had been waiting long long years for. In movie sense, it is Star Wars Episode One. However, with expectations this high, Zelda 64 was bound to disappoint some people, myself included.
	Star Wars: Starfighter review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown This feature allows you to zoom in on the enemy for some precision shots. After the first mission you should be able to pick up all the controls and become a legit Starfighter pilot. Thank you Lucas Arts for making this a simple game to pick up and play.
	Deja Vu I & II: The Casebooks of Ace Harding review (GBC) Reviewed on Date Unknown The story is Deja Vu's strong point and the reason you'll keep playing. If you don't get into the story, then you'll have little reason to play the game.
	TimeSplitters review (PS2) Reviewed on Date Unknown After you grab the item in the level you need to go back to the beginning where the exit is, but there is a twist: now you must fight the timesplitters. These nasty little buggers can kill you outright in 2 or 3 hits!
	Shining Force II review (GEN) Reviewed on Date Unknown Shining Force 2 is one of the best roleplaying games for the Genesis, in the upper echelon with the Phantasy Star games.
