In this interesting game you play as a herd of Yoshi’s that are on a deadly mission to save the world from the eminent destruction of the free world with the help of John Connor… o sorry I’ve had the Terminator on the mind right now… anyways you play Yoshi’s in attempt to save Baby Mario from Baby Bowser from him playing with… him. Besides the story being a little weird the gameplay is actually pretty good with hard levels and endless Yoshi deaths abound… I mean seriously what do they do to all those Yoshi’s anyways. Each level is a great challenge and the game has some tough bosses too with make it even hard for most casual gamers. My only other fault is that the game may be too challenging and you may lose so much frustration will take over and you may lose a controller. Besides that it is still a good game and worth playing if your in on platforming action.

I give it an 8

Let me start off by saying that this is a strange game, but an enjoyable one to say the least. You play as an islander who is trying to save his girlfriend and the only way to do that is to… use a skateboard. Yeah despite sounding weird it is actually the best part of the game. The games has hard levels to play and is very challenging as well as it progress on. Also, back to the skateboarding, while it is fun and funny to see your character your platforming is drastically changed and you’ll lose a life. Speaking of lives, the game is a pain with them since you only have three to play and no continues… big let down to a good game. Besides that, it is still a fun and enjoyable game to play and more of a challenge to anyone.

I give a 7

Epic Game Review Ice Hockey

Now I don’t usually review Sport video games, but the NES was my childhood and I played some of their sport games and of those there was Ice Hockey. First off, there isn’t much to do except just pick a team like the United States or Canada with the player both big and slim and try to beat your opponent. I for one like the simplicity of the game… I mean nowadays the games, from what I’ve seen, are very complex and monotonous I mean there are modes now with refreshments and when to have Fan Appreciation Day… that is just my opinion. Also, I like how it felt more like playing a fuse-ball like Hockey game and requires less strategy and a bit more gameplay. My only gripe with the game is the graphics aren’t that great and they overuse of the same sprites, but this was back in the NES era so I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt.

In the end, I gave this game a 8 for making this game enjoyable to play

First off, this game was the first game on the Gamecube and I think it is the best out of the rest of the Gamecube. It has new types of games and boards to keep the fun going. Of course the high point of the game is like always the multi player mode since it is the whole reason for playing this game. The single player mode is not really worth mentioning since there is no significance at all towards the game. There are the same characters you’ve seen in the old games on the N64 and provides, just like any other Mario Party game, hours of fun gameplay. The problem with this game is that there was really no difference transitioning to the Gamecube it felt like playing fight on the N64 again. Also…. this was the last time you could play as DK which, well for me, was very dissapointing… Dang you Hudson.

In the end I gave it a 7 for lack of improvement, but was enjoyable to play

Since I did the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm review, I thought I review my first Naruto game that I’ve ever gotten (this is the dub version). I will say this first, the game has some interesting combos and you can play it for hours against computers or your friends. But the games story is very short and there are very limited amount of characters to play as so it was very disappointing for me. Luckily, these fighting games get better as the franchise continues, although, I’ve haven’t played them yet, but I plan to real soon. Nonetheless, I’m a Naruto fan and the game was a decent start to the dub video game versions.

I’m ging it a 7 and hope for the next one to be a bit better

Sorry Part for my inactivity I’ve been busy since its my senior year, but anyways I’ve got some more great review of video games and plan to get some more during this long, and by long I mean since I’m heading to college soon and all, so I’ll be sure to keep you all informed. Expect a review tonight of my first official review of my first Naruto game Naruto Clash of Ninja.

I also have a reason for there not being another TV review is because I’m not sure what show to review yet so I’ll think of one soon… Hopefully.

As for new stuff, I plan to start a new section for rants because I’ve always wanted to rant on about something on the Internet.

So see you all later.

Yet another feat my first SNES review and a great one in fact. Before the Paper Mario’s there was one game the made Mario RPG’s so great and that was Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It had Mario in an RPG genre instead of platforming adventures he is usually in. I will say this much, the games story and gameplay is the best especially for the SNES. The game also provides endless hours of playing time with secrets and trials for the most hardcore players. The game also has some of the best NPC dialogue and the main characters are fun to play. Lastly, the game provides the best boss battles I’ve ever play in and get equally harder as it progresses on. My only concern is that the game, like I said before, is very hard to play sometimes and can get frustrating also.

All in all I give this awesome game a 9.5

And now here’s something completely different… a PS3 review. Anyways, I must say this is by far the best Naruto game out right now and there are many reasons. First, the game has unique and  intense battles involving almost every character in the game. Second, The graphics are amazing compared to other Naruto games. Lastly, the story mode is very similar to the Anime and Manga which is a great thing for most fans. Also, the game provides hours of gameplay in the Story mode and the battles never get boring at all. My only concern is that you do a lot of travelling in the Leaf Village collecting items in order to fully complete the game which was disappointing to me.

Overall, I really like this game and is definately worth playing… 9.5

Let me take you back 12 year ago where I first started playing video games and loved almost anything I’ve played one of those was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I thought this side scroller was a great game, but now that I’m an adult and looking back on it I’ve decided to reconsider my first impression. First off, it had some interesting gameplay and you can play all four turtles, Leo, Raph, Donny, and Mikey, I prefer to call them this when I was a kid, and use all the weapons. Another thing good is that there are an abundance of levels to keep you playing until you lose all your slices of… Pizza. Besides all the good things, the game has its flaws like the controls, the bosses are too easy, or too hard to hard to kill, and you really just play as one character in the whole game. It is very conflicting on how to rate this game so…

I give it a 5 since it is in the middle of my rating system

I was psyched to hear that there was going to be a second version of the popular theme park games known as Roller Coaster Tycoon. The game is a fun addition to the franchise and it also showcases Six Flags theme parks to add something new to the games. Also staying true to the series it show brand new coasters and thrill rides to add new aspect to all your theme parks. The best part is that, like, the rest of the games you can replay them and create all kinds of new rides to further expand your theme park. My only concern is that the objective are either too easy or too hard depending on how you play which can lead to some dislike of this game. Other than that, I still enjoy this game and is a great step forward in the franchise.

I give this a 9
