Hi all.

This is really my main site or rather blog. On here I'm going to post basically any crap I can think of. I've got some reviews, and loads of other junk already on here from when I first started the site, so if you really want to go digging down into this blogs past then go ahead, but I'm warning you, it won't be pretty...

Anyway, I've also got a playthrough I'm currently doing on youtube which I'll embed here. I'm also probably going to put links here to my failed projects of the past such as the games I once was developing.

I was going to re-upload my games, but they're horrific now I look back. Not a single one that's even playable really. As such, the only way I'll ever put them on a blog is if I can somehow make them not an entire embarressment, some of the ideas I've got I'm still kinda happy with trying so who knows if I'll ever make a game again. Not me at least...

Well since I haven't updated this place at all, I'm going to try and really change it up. I'll probably get some more reviews written up, I'll also maybe rewrite some older ones as they're pretty terrible. As it is I'm pretty embaressed about this blog, so I want to make it at least so I can enjoy it whilst being embaressed...

Castlevania

2008-04-22T14:53:00.002-07:00

I’ll admit it, when I was young, I had very few NES games. SNES was my baby, however, now I’m older, I’d heard a lot on the web of Castlevania. I bought this game on the virtual console after giving played Dawn of Sorrow on the DS. It turned out I’d been hearing right, this games one of the best games on the NES. The thing I love about the Castlevania games, is the castle itself, you truly feel like your taking on the ultimate evil’s castle. This is boosted by the fact that the game is rock hard. Water kills you which is a pain, and when you get hit you fall backwards a bit, but it still feels fair, you messed up, the controls are quite slow but still not bad by any means. The game is a great game which I’d recommend to any Castlevania fan or classic NES fan.

Graphics. 9
Very nice, the enemies all look cool, and the bosses look great by NES standards.

Sound. 9
Great music, many classics to the series are in this game, and remain moody while still having a fun element to them.

Gameplay 8
Nice controls which despite being slow aren’t bad by any means.

lifespan 8
A difficult game, no save feature (password system) this game lasts a fair while.

Overall 8
A great game. The classic Castlevania which is still playable today, it is, however beaten by many of it’s sequels (not Simon’s Quest though!!!)

Zelda II

2008-04-22T14:53:00.001-07:00

It seems may games had a drastic change of style in their sequels. Mario Bros 2 in America and Europe was a very different game to the original, but was still a great game. Castlevania II had new elements but had some major flaws. Zelda II is considered by many to be the ‘black sheep’ in the Zelda family, and with good reason, I mean even today a sidescrolling Zelda game’s difficult to imagine. I would say however that this game was a great game and in my opinion it’s better than the original Zelda. Firstly the major change is that the game is sidescrolling, however control is very good and I love the shield system where you duck to block down and stand normally to block up. This game is also rock hard, but not in a frustrating way, it’s due to the skill required, Horsehead, the very first boss is prime example of the challenge that you can expect in the game. Another big change in this game was the introduction of towns. The towns in this game are quite busy with people walking around and for the time felt like a living town. There’s great dialogue to be found too, such as the infamous ‘I AM ERROR’. So in conclusion this is a great game, which I feel nowadays is actually superior to the original. It has great difficult gameplay and is worth a look for any Zelda fan, despite (or perhaps even because of) the huge changes.

Graphics. 9
Nice, enemies all look in order and the towns have a nice atmosphere which for a NES game is rare.

Sound. 10
The tunes here are typical Zelda, but I can’t recall any except the temple theme being remixed (which was only in Smash bros Melee, and Brawl.)

Gameplay 9
Unique, but still very fun to use, with much challenge.

lifespan 9
A huge game map, great difficulty and not a bad storyline (not simply Link fighting Gannon)

Overall 9
I will again say I enjoy this over the original. And despite this being the ‘black sheep’ of the Zelda family, it’s still great fun. A recommended download.

The Legend of Zelda

2008-04-22T14:52:00.001-07:00

This game was a great game. Don’t get me wrong. But when I was a kid, I could never get into it. It wasn’t until the N64 I’d ever get into a Zelda game (I missed out on ALTTP) My complaints are simply that you don’t know where you’re going and the world, while amazingly big at the time, had no charm to me. The only people other than you lived in caves, and people are what I’ve always felt give the Zelda games the character that truly makes them amazing games. The game is challenging and is still an excellent game. However, even today I feel that this game is best left as a memory. It felt an epic game back when it was released, but now that epic feeling is gone, and the game feels empty ‘bare roots’ Zelda. I’m going to be very controversial now, and say that I feel that in some respects Zelda II was actually the better game. Read my Zelda II review to find out why. So in conclusion I’d say, if you’re looking for a good NES game and are a Zelda fan, then sure, go for this. But if you won’t limit yourself to NES, get ALTTP or Ocarina of Time, or any other Zelda game (excluding CD-I. Even I have some dignity) This is a great game, just not worth looking at before other Zelda’s.

Graphics. 9
Nice graphics. The characters all work well enough and Link looks cool.

Sound. 10
Even now parts of this soundtrack are beautiful pieces. Of course there’s the classic theme tune, but the Dungeon theme has to be my favourite.

Gameplay 9
Works very well. This game is fun, and whilst it lacks the luxuries of future games (towns etc) the game still defined the Zelda formula which is even still used today.

lifespan 9
A huge game, challenging still and still playable. Plus it was one of the very first NES games that allowed you to save.

Overall 8
I may have seemed overly negative in this review, but this game still is a classic well worth a purchase, it’s just today, there are so many Zelda games that are better which I can recommend that going back to the original isn’t as satisfying as say, playing SMB today.

Urban Champion

2008-04-22T14:50:00.000-07:00

Oh wow. I now know that when a NES game is bad, it’s BAD.
Urban champion is a game with the grace of a pub brawl, but then, that’s because it is a pub brawl, or rather street brawl. Basically you punch your opponent off of the screen and he rolls to another building, this goes on until you punch your opponent into a manhole. The thing is, the controls are horrible. You bash the button and your character actually chooses themselves whether they’ll hit high or low, or at least, it’s so slow to pick up whether you’re holding up or down that it feels like it. There’s a hard punch or a weak punch, but to be honest I never noticed any difference between either, their still as slow as a disabled slug regardless.

Graphics. 7
To be honest, the sprites have a lot of character, but the buildings are all pretty much the same with a different sign.

Sound. 5
Not much, sound effects are alright, and music’s ok, that is, when it’s not complete silence.

Gameplay 3
Very boring. In fact, I can’t think of much more to say here. Basically depends on luck, and has pointless events such as your characters stopping fighting when a cop car goes past, then starting afterwards. Also random pots fall down and hit your character, but he moves so slowly it’s pretty hard to dodge.

lifespan 2
Depends how often you can play the same thing without it being any fun to begin with.

Overall 2
Cute sprites are about all I have to compliment this game for. It’s not even worth 500 points on the VC, let alone the price it was probably at, when it was released.

Super Mario Bros 3

2008-04-22T14:49:00.000-07:00

As a kid, I used to play this game in the Super Mario all stars collection, and believed that it was a SNES game, since it was so large that I felt it had to have the save feature. I then realised when my dad brought the good old NES down, that this game was in fact a NES game. As a kid, this game blew my mind, it was so brilliant in every way. The music is brilliant, the graphics for the NES were beautiful, and the gameplay and length were beyond anything I’d ever played before. Even now I’m older, there are few games this big. When you play a game like Megaman, with larger more challenging levels (Wily’s Castle is really only one level to me) you still think, that SMB3 had about 60 or more levels. And what levels, every new map screen brought new elements to the table, from the evil ‘Big Bessie’ of Water Land to the Kuribo’s shoe of Sky Land (the ground part). The bosses, the Koopa Kids were great, each one in their giant Airship waiting to take you down. So I advise you. If you’ve played this game before, buy it on VC. If you haven’t, buy it on VC. If you hate the ‘childish’ look of the Mario games, buy it. Trust me, on the NES, this game is the daddy. There’s not a single game I can think of, that I feel was truly as amazing as this game on NES. I’m not downplaying other games on NES at all, I mean, if I say that this is better than Mega Man, Castlevania, even Zelda, then surely you realise this is worth your 500 points.

Graphics. 10
Rounded, beautiful and atmospheric, and yes, this is a NES game.

Sound. 9
Classic Mario Bros sounds. Music is brilliant, especially the map screen tunes.

Gameplay 9
This game is the definition of a platformer. SMB created the formula. SMB2 gave it a shake, and SMB3 perfected the whole mixture. Only on the SNES did the level of control improve any more.

lifespan 10
No save feature once more, and once more warpzones could take you further. This game gets a 10 though, because I simply haven’t ever played a game this long AND fun and challenging throughout.

Overall 10
This game remains my firm favourite NES game ever. Even giving games on the SNES a run for their money. The re-release in Allstars just goes to show this game can stand head high on the SNES too.

Super Mario Bros 2

2008-04-22T14:46:00.000-07:00

The ‘Black sheep’ of the Mario family. This game was originally created as an entirely different game called Doki Doki Panic, and Mario Bros 2 was only released in Japan (until it was re-released as Super Mario Bros the lost levels). In the jump to the rest of the world the game known as Doki Doki Panic became Super Mario Bros 2. Ironically Mario’s creator, Shigeru Miyamoto was more involved in the creation of Doki Doki Panic than Lost Levels, and as such this could be considered a true sequel. This game certainly is odd, and notable as one of the few games to feature Peach and Toad as playable characters. The enemies were odd and the game genuinely didn’t feel a successor to SMB. However, the game was still good fun, with a tough challenge and another new Mario Villain (since Bowser had only been in SMB at this point in time and previously DK was Mario’s nemesis.) The game is certainly unique and worth a look for any Mario fan.

Graphics. 8
Prettier than SMB, with nice character sprites and backgrounds.

Sound. 8
More classic Mario Bros music with nice boss themes. The sound effects such as throwing vegetables are nice too.

Gameplay 8
This game greatly changed from SMB. Enemies couldn’t be killed by a bop on the head but needed to be picked up and thrown at other enemies, although this was different it still worked well.

lifespan 8
Again no save feature, apart from warpzones. This game is very challenging and would take many attempts to complete. However it can get slightly more tedious than other games such as SMB but is still good fun.

Overall 8
The ‘Black sheep’ of the Mario family is still a strong ram rather than a little lamb. Worth a playthrough. Not as good as other Mario games but still a great game.

Super Mario Bros

2008-04-22T14:27:00.000-07:00

So what better game to review first than the earliest game I have on my Wii’s Virtual Console. Super Mario Bros was one of the first games of it’s time and defined the platforming genre. If there’s one thing the NES had plenty of, it was platformers. Many however failed to achieve the class and fun of this game. So what is it that makes Super Mario Bros still fun today and makes it worth 500 Wii points? Well firstly other than being the very first ‘true’ Mario game which spawned the success of Mario and indeed Nintendo, Super Mario Bros had smooth controls, a challenge, which slowly built up meaning that you had to get better as you went along. Many secrets, inventive enemies and finally the powerups such as the Mushroom and Fire Flower. Even today, this game, despite not being the best platformer available on the NES, this game is still worth a look and is ideal for what games are. Fun.

Graphics. 7
I’m not going to lie, compared to some NES games, the graphics aren’t the best available. However, the sprites are clear, the graphics are easy to get used to and for the time, the graphics were pretty amazing compared to previous games such as Donkey Kong and Pacman.

Sound. 9
The classic music and sound effects which are still used to this day as definitive video game sounds.

Gameplay 9
This game defined the platforming genre. It would be later on that other games would perfect it, but even today this game remains challenging but fun.

lifespan 9
No save feature other than the secret warp pipes, this game is unforgiving as many NES games are, hugely challenging and enjoyable.

Overall 9
As I’ve said twice now, this game defined the platforming genre. Other games may perfect it, but that doesn’t make this game any less fun.

What a horrible night to get a makeover

2008-04-14T16:05:00.000-07:00

Hi all...

Well, ok, I am talking to myself...

Anyway, basically I feel embarressed at the state of this place and have decided change is coming. My plan is to start reviewing almost all games I've got for various systems, such as SNES, NES, GBA, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Sega Megadrive and maybe even one or two PC games. This site is going to hopefully not remain the embarressment that it once was, I'm designing a new picture for the top of the blog currently, but this year you can expect to see many more reviews of games I have as well as my new podcast which I'm making (and currently neglecting) called Shadowcast which will feature guests.

Stay tuned folks.

NEW SMASH BROS BRAWL CHARACTERZ!!!!!!!!11111

2007-10-23T15:42:00.000-07:00

ZOMG! IT'S INCREDIBLE!!! THESE NEW CHARACTERS ARE IN TEH NEW SMASH BROS!!!!!1111

(For those of you who don't know what this is about, then basically Super Smash Brothers is a Nintendo fighting game where characters from different VIDEOGAME series kick the crap out of each other. There have been countless videos made however, since a new Smash game was announced, with peoples dream choices of fighters descending like a plague on places like Youtube. Whilst it's fun to speculate, some of the videos seem to just fill themselves with characters who aren't even really videogame characters such as Naruto or Dragonball Z. It's starting to get ridiculous now and you can't truely tell in many cases whether the video is real or some crappy fan film. So now, since I'm a complete Hypocrite, I present to you Regiwi's Dream Super Smash Bros Brawl character roster.) (Sorry for the crappy work, it's all been done in Microsoft paint.)

(All characters are owned by their respected owners, also the images were all taken from various sites through Google Image search and stuck together on paint.)

Dr Who blasts in through a time warp to Smash. The Doctor is a chameleon like fighter who takes on the voice actor of the one who KO'd him and changes his appearance. His moves include running down similar corridors and his Final smash calls his TARDIS to the battle which he then uses to go to the past and kill the enemies whilst they're babies.

Screw Mario vs Sonic. Most true fans only care about this fight! After selling his soul to 3D animation, Mickey Mouse needs all the fame he can get. After searching his own name on the internet he stumbled upon an article that said in a survey in America, more kids knew Mario than ones who knew Mickey. Mickey wants vengence. Mickey has a fast moveset and will use his influence in the american government in his final smash by calling a US airstrike into the stage.

The Man himself. Chuck Norris has descended into the Brawl. He uses his trademark Roundhouse kicks as well as the Chuck Norris random fact generator to give him any move in the game. Chuck Norris needs no final Smash.

Mr T's here at last to show those crazy fools how it's done. He uses his strength as well as a cabbage gun in battle. His Final Smash is to call in the A-Team to come up with a plan to beat those crazy fools.

The Sugar Daddy is here. The Honey Monster has entered the Brawl. He is the main match to DK and Bowser for strength and will use his voice to stun his foes. He will also force feed enemies Sugar Puffs making them lighter for a period of time. His Final Smash makes him seal himself in a giant Sugar Puff (with 50% less sugar) which will then grow and crush all enemies in the vasinity. Any who survive will drown in the milk which is then poured onto the stage.

Super Paper Mario

2007-10-18T11:44:00.000-07:00

First Impressions.
To be honest, a world where we’re all paper would suck. For one thing a pair of scissors would end us. Also imagine when it rains, we’d be in real trouble. Luckily Super Paper Mario doesn’t take into account the hardships of paper people, and that’s a good job too as the last thing we want is an Emo Mario crying over the futility of his life and cutting himself.

Graphics. 10
So, the big gimmick in this game you’ve probably heard about, which is going from 2d into… 3d (OMG SPOILERZ). Well, it’s fantastically pulled off in this game, and while it may not make sense in some ways like how Mario walks a cross a path in 2d yet in 3d the path is a load of boxes randomly scattered around, it doesn’t matter. The mechanic is so good and well implemented that you can overlook any illogical parts since it helps make puzzles that you wouldn’t of thought of before. The game looks fantastic in 2d, it’s lively, colourful and basically as realistic as a piece of paper can look on a TV screen. Many reviewers have criticised the 3d for looking flat. Yes I realise it looks flat but maybe the clues in the name Paper Mario? As in flat characters, it just adds to the humour of how weird their 3d world is.

Sound. 10
Music’s amazing. I love it, the boss themes, the remixes of old music, the new music, it’s all beautiful. There isn’t a single part of the sound I can fault, and no, this is one game that can’t be argued about over voice acting, Zelda ok, I can see people’s points, but this is fine without it.

Gameplay 8
Right. The levels play great, with clever puzzles I described earlier. Also the main town’s fun to go around and there’s lots to see and do. Certain parts of the game however are slightly pointless and make you wonder why they put them in. One level in particular springs to mind, but I won’t go into that. Opinion is divided over the Boss battles. Personally, I think they’re cool, if a little easy, but I can see peoples arguments over the repetitiveness over them too. I didn’t bother buying any items throughout the game, which made it harder for me, so I was too busy trying to survive the boss battles to care about how repetitive they are. So basically the game is only let down by one level.

Replayability 7
Hmm… tough one. It’s a very fun game and some of the levels are replayable, however, there’re certain levels which you just can’t do anything on again. If you want a challenge in your games too, I suggest that you don’t try to level up as it makes you a bit too powerful and a bit easy. That said I’ve died in it a few times. There is a huge secret at the end of the game, the Pit of 100 trials which adds a ton of replay value but also can be slightly repetitive.

Overall 8
A great game while it lasts, with amazing style, sound and a pretty cool storyline. Mario fans and new Wii owners will love it. It has a couple of flaws keeping it from perfection but it’s still well worth getting. Overall I’d say it’s better than being made out of paper by far.

Review round up.

+ Clever puzzles

+ Great Music

+ Good storyline

+ Great controls

- One particularly boring level

- Boss battles may seem repetitive

Spider-man 3.

2007-10-18T10:53:00.000-07:00

First Impressions.
Spiders scare a lot of people. Arachnophobia affects a few people in the world. It’s a shame as spiders are some of the coolest invertebrates out there. They’re like the Lions of the insect world. Kings of all they survey unless they’re stupid enough to fight a scorpion. Basically spiders are well ‘ard. Spider-man 2 was one of the best movie tie in games ever, that could mean it was an average game, with that title, but it was brilliant. There was so much to see and do and the freedom of powers had never truly been seen before in a GTA style setting. Basically it rocked. Like spiders do. Spider-man 3 is more like a fly dressed up as a spider. It’s too thick to see the spider web it’s about to fly into.

Graphics. 1
‘sigh’ Sure. The Wii’s graphics are not as good as the PS3 and Xbox 360’s, but come on!!!! This puts the Gamecube, and PS2 to shame! Geez, it’s like they went back and made everything look worse than the original game. And they didn’t even add anything! The sewers and underground train we were promised, were omitted from the Wii version. They even went and took out the Statue of Liberty too. What your left with is a city that looks worse and is smaller than the game’s predecessor. Progress eh? You gotta love it. Oh, and in the mission where you’re chasing giant lizard guys who have no real explanation for their existence, the lizards seem to float over the ground. Yet they still feel the need to pump those thighs whilst magically floating. I'm sorry, but this has gone backwards. How could I really even give it a score?

Sound. 4
The Witticism of the 2nd game has been sadly drowned in a vat of toxic waste just like the way a spider could be drowned in a bath tub. The music is more boring than the 2nd game’s, and that was pretty crap. There’s not a single line Tobey Maguire spouts out that makes you chuckle slightly. The last game had quite a few, and Spidey can actually be quite funny, sadly comedy isn’t part of the review really, although that’s a bonus for Activision.

Gameplay 2
‘Hey you!’ Slap, slap, jump slap. ‘Oh no, it’s the spider-man!’ slap slap, jump slap, throw, slap. ‘Spider-man can you post this letter for me?’ Swing, swing, swing, swing, press B to post letter. ‘OMG IT’S TEH VENOM MAN!’ Slap, slap, slap, jump, slap, jump kick, slap, slap. Well ok, the swinging with the remotes quite good. Oh, and we want to actually fight the Green Goblin next time, not play a dance mat game against him.

Replayability 5
‘Well that’s that out of the way. Oh, now I’ve lost the cool looking black suit. Oh well at least I can try being a good Samaritan for the people of New York. Lets see, I can… beat up that gang… beat up that gang… beat up that gang… beat up that gang… or beat up that gang and post a letter for their victim. Man, now this is livin’!’

Overall 3
Yay! It’s Spiderman 2 but with a load of extras and a whole new storyline. Except that the city’s smaller… and it looks like Lego city… and the unique side missions have been replaced with fighting 5 clones… and the promised places have been abandoned… and the game’s now frozen… and Spider-man’s voice actor sounds as depressed to be reading his lines as I am playing this game… and the Black suit is gone now that I’ve fought through the whole game… and the boss battles are no fun… Man! This ROCKS!

Review Round up.

+ The swing controls are decent

+ Erm... the box art's ok?

- Graphics that would make Space invaders cry

- Music that would bore a spider to death

- Fighting that is less intense and intricate than a pub brawl

- The city's actually smaller and uglier than Spider-man 2.

- The dance mat style Green Goblin battle.

Genre: Action

First Impressions.
A movie that many claim to be the next Lord of the Rings. It’s based on history but accentuates things. Looks cool basically.

Graphics. 10
Really great graphics, from the blood to the movement. Also there is some great artistic features, such as making the wolf and elephants seem like monsters that shows how the Spartans had never seen elephants before.

Sound. 7
Not noticeably bad but hardly memorable music. Good but not great.

Acting 7
The actors were good, and acted their role well, not great but ok. The thing is their roles weren’t that good, the characters all seemed very two dimensional and you never really felt sorry for them etc.

Replayability 7

If you enjoyed it, you could watch it again, as it’s that kind of movie, but if you found it good the first time around it’s highly doubtful you’ll watch it again, it’s too long to simply watch as a time filler.

Overall 7
This movie is very overrated in my opinion. To be honest I found I more fun reading different meanings into their dialogue than really bothering with the plot. I’ll admit things like the Jamaican warrior in the Persian army make me laugh slightly. Ah well, anyway graphically it’s brilliant and the visual style’s amazing, sadly this is the only real good point about it, all I hear from people who sing it’s praises are ‘it looks amazing especially that bit where they jump out.’ My point is though that it seems to depend on thrills rather than characters, with little real sadness you feel for the characters, compare this to the sorrow you feel for the characters in Lord of the Rings as you can tell these people are all being deeply effected by the events. You never get that feeling in this film, it may reflect the fact that the Spartans are born to fight, but you never think that their city will be destroyed and their people killed. It just doesn’t come across. Finally, I’m sorry but I can’t help but feel that there are racist elements underlying the plot, maybe not intentional, but the Persians aren’t shown as people, they’re shown as creatures almost, who are just fodder with no feelings or anything, war movies can make you even feel sorry for the German soldiers, they came from a nation that forced them to fight and are shown as not being real Nazis but people who want to have Germany as a great country once more. The Persians in comparison, are really quite badly represented. Overall, I feel that this movie was good, but it needs to be put down, it is not as people claim the best movie ever, but it’s an enjoyable (if somewhat shallow) film. Good, but not great.

Review round up.
+ Great graphics
+ Great Artistry
+ Funny comments occasionally

- No real characters
- Plot's pretty boring
- Ultimately flawed

Sonic and the Secret Rings

2007-04-25T16:32:00.000-07:00

Reviewer: Regiwi
Consoles: Wii
Genre: Adventure
Age Rating; 3+

First Impressions.
The Sonic franchise is in trouble, it’s been getting less popular and seen as greatly dispersing from it’s original plot etc. Something needed to come out that had a simplistic storyline, fast gameplay and no Gimmicks. Sonic Rush was born and proved this was possible in 3d esque 2d form. That was promptly followed by the rubbish storyline oriented Shadow the Hedgehog, a game which didn’t actually seem to know what it was itself. Sonic and the Secret Rings looked to be the first amazing 3d Sonic game. How did it do?

Graphics. 10
Beautiful, this game single-handedly proves regardless of the Superior graphics of the PS3 and Xbox the Wii can produce beautiful graphics. From the nice sand to beautiful cities and water effects. Looks amazing. Only gripe is that while Sonic looks good he’s not as good looking as the scenery, but his movement is fluent. Another great part is the depth, such as in the case of these giant stingray like creatures with entire cities on their backs.

Sound. 8
Depends. The voice acting is the typical corny tone, and can detract from the game, I played it in Japanese, as their voices sound better and there’s subtitles too. The only voice actor I liked was Robotnik’s, he fits him well. There’s the very rare quite funny joke, like going through an entire world to free Knuckles to get advice on how to beat a giant fire spirit for him to just tell you ‘splash some water on it.’ The music ranges from the average first level to my favourite the Levitated Ruin.

Gameplay 8
Starts off very boring, this is SATSR bad point, it takes a while to get going, having to go through missions that teach you the basics is very well but there should be an option to skip it. Sonic starts off being quite slow and not sharp at turning. There is a ring which you can equip various powers to which fixes this, eg. Better turning, faster acceleration etc. It gets better and better as you go along, with great controls and great difficulty. A challenge for even hardcore gamers. Nice touches such as rings which shoot you out when you shake the remote at just the right time add to the variety. The multiplayer is fun but nothing to write home about.

Replayability 9
Like I said, it starts off slow, but gets faster as you go along, eventually it will show the amazing game that it is. This happened for me at the foundry which had the first true challenges. Places like the pirate ship and the Levitated Ruin are so fun you could play them over a few times. Also there are side quests that can range from boring collect em ups to fast and challenging races. The boss battles are also great and varied.

Overall 9
An amazing return to great games by Sonic. This game proves that 3d Sonic can work, and provides another challenge and fun to please fans, hardcore gamers and newcomers alike. As revolutionary as Rush and about as fun.

Life on Mars

2007-04-25T15:50:00.000-07:00

Reviewer: Regiwi
On: BBC1
Genre: Scifi/Cop drama
Age Rating; 12+

First Impressions.
This show is about a cop from 2006 who was run down by a car and woke up in 1974. The first impression from this is that there haven’t been many plots like this before.

Graphics. 10
Well there aren’t many computer effects but there don’t need to be, however the props are very believable and definitely help make it feel like you’re watching 1974.

Sound 10
Excellent! Brilliant songs from the 70’s, especially David Bowie’s title song ‘Life on Mars?’ Also note that this is the song that Tyler is listening to when he is hit by the car. But the music is great and helps prove as such, the era.

Acting 9
All the actors are great, Tyler appears out of place (as he should) and the other cops are good at their roles (young learning cop, Tyler’s disliked team member (I wouldn’t call them enemies, or rivals) and DCI Gene Hunt the old school DCI)

Rewatchability 8
There’s lots of little points you can pick up on, and you could watch the episodes a few times, but like any television show, best first time through.

Overall 10
Excellent show! A must watch for anyone, it does a great job of the out of place atmosphere and the policing methods, one of the few decent BBC drama’s today. Truly excellent, and had a lot of time put into research.

Review Roundup
+ Great atmosphere
+ Good Sci Fi elements
+ Great cop show
+ Great contrast between characters
+ Great props

Upcoming Movies (2007)

2007-04-25T15:19:00.000-07:00

After a period of nothing, there are many great movies coming up. Expect to see these reviewed this year.

Spiderman 3

The Webslinger returns and will face some very personal oponents. Fan favourites, Sandman and Venom as well as a personal adversary. This makes for an interesting looking film which will test Peter/spiderman. Stay tuned for the review.

More to come...

Upcoming games I'm looking forward to (2007)

2007-04-25T14:21:00.000-07:00

Expect to see these reviewed this year.

Super Paper Mario.

This game looks awesome, basically it's a RPG platformer simlar to games such as Castlevania and Zelda 2. The difference is whereas those games are about sword play (or whip play in Castlevania) SPM is a Mario game, so you have to depend on Mario's (and your) skills. You kill enemies in various ways, the most basic is jumping on them, but some enemies have spikes on top, so you have to use another method for them, such as a hammer. One of the uniques features of this game, is the ability to turn the world to its side, for example, there's a long gap that can't be jumped, you can switch to 3d and see there's a hill at the back and you can go around this therefore passing the gap.

Spiderman 3

This game is somewhat of a suprise treat, I enjoyed the original (well Spiderman 2) a lot, I was going to be happy if this was more of the same with different villains etc, however this game has suprised me, there isn't just the city of New York, now there is also an underground including Subways and Sewers, as well as the ability to change between Black and normal costumes. This I've only found out today, and I also found out it's out in 8 days! The only reason not to buy it is not to ruin the film, so I suggest you see that first before you play this game. Also the Wii version has Wii specific controls, also the Wii version has two unique villains.

Super Mario Galaxy

Simply put, this is a game you have to buy if you have a wii. I originally felt that it looked a bit limited, with small planets, however as more footage has been released it looks set to be a huge adventure that will span the galaxy (well lets face it, Mario Land, Mario World, Galaxy was next.) All the classic enemies are set to return as well as all new ones, I suggest that you start getting excited.

The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring.

2007-04-23T10:19:00.000-07:00

ShooterAge Rating; 10+

Picture the scene. You’ve been to see Peter Jackson’s epic film, The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring. You perhaps come out of the film thinking ‘that was absolutely incredible; they could make that into an awesome action/adventure game if they worked hard enough at it.’ You realise that there is a game out called The Lord of The Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Excitedly you buy it, thinking of the cool parts in the film that you want to relive. They couldn’t mess this up. Could they?

There are games out there that feel epic; The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time and Final Fantasy XI for example. They managed to stay exciting and have a very lengthy play time with tons of replay value. This game desperately wants to try to do that, but it has one major disadvantage. It’s repetitive.

You play as either Frodo, Aragorn or Gandalf on their quest to destroy the One Ring. However although you can understand Frodo being slow at fighting, you’d expect Aragorn, (a Ranger, who is living in the wilds of Middle Earth and therefore fighting Orcs and other nasties all the time) to be a bit faster with his sword. You could make a Gourmet sandwich with extra cheese in the time it takes for him to hit an enemy twice. Gandalf is a typical wizard with spells, he’s good to play as, with a variety of spells, which is why you can only play as him twice in the whole game...

This game amazingly has a few, small, well hidden positive features. It has, at the start of the game, a feeling of optimism, the Shires nice in graphical terms and quite large, also it gives you a sense of peace, it makes you feel like you’re in the Shire for a while. Then it surprises you by looking quite promising, it let you throw a stone to occupy the Ringwraiths who are chasing you. It’s small, but a nice touch. Then it goes downhill.

That initial stroke of innovation is lost, you travel into the Old Forest. Surely it will be fun? It goes now, from inventive fun to boring hack and slash. You’re being chased by spiders, which you kill, over, and over, and over, and over again. This is a large part of the start of the game, and a strong sign of things to come. You then get to Bree-a dark dank seedy town (now this is the only game I know of that features Bree) it doesn’t manage to get the feel of the films or books version of the place, it’s seedy in the bar, but outside, there’s no one but random muggers who attack you. There’s nothing fun to do, there’s nothing unique, and it’s just a deserted town with muggers.

This experience easily helps lose the appeal of the film and books, the game then becomes boring and repetitive, it’s a case of kill enemies, hit switch, open door. Then in the Elves cities, you literally have one place to go around, Lothlorien, has no interesting high treetop towns, it’s a single room with the fellowship in it, to try to remind you that you are part of a fellowship, since during the game they magically disappear. This sense of boredom, makes you wonder if there are any redeeming features of this game.

Compare this to for example, Zelda, which, this game, heavily borrows off of. There’s nothing to do in towns, there’s no way to go back to previously travelled places, there’s no times you’re wondering where to go and it’s short, something Lord of the Rings shouldn’t be.

Closing Comments.
This game is boring, repetitive, and rushed. The graphics are nice but not great, the sound is boring compared to the films, and the gameplay’s repetitive. It starts off quite promising, allowing the player to get a feel for the world, but then it’s like the designers realised that the release date was next week. A giant city made into a single room in a game that needs to feel epic, is not worth buying.

First Impressions
Right, Goldeneye was without a doubt the best licensed game ever. Now, I bought this probably from the excitement of seeing the new Bond film, which is awesome. Anyway, so I looked at which Bond games there were, and I only didn’t buy Goldeneye in case it comes out on the Wii’s Virtual Console. Anyway, so I saw, there was the two FPS games, which were EA’s own storyline. From past experience of EA’s own stories, I thought I’d try a game based on the film. From Russia with Love is often cited as the definitive Bond film. So I thought, well, it’s there for £5 on EBay, let’s try it out…

Graphics 8
It’s EA. If there’s one thing they can do, it’s pump up graphics, but still some parts seem a bit lifeless, chases in cars through Istanbul have one or two cars on the road, and there’s no mayhem from the movies. So although it looks great it is a bit lifeless.

Sound 9
Music that’s almost perfect, nice voice acting, and Sean Connery, he is Bond. Period. Anyway, there’s only one scene I can’t help but feel Sean’s a little relying on you thinking back to the movies at the very start ‘shaken not stirred’, there’s just something not right about that line in the cut scene. Anyway, other than that, excellent, typical quips from Connery too (in a car chase level, ‘the traffic here’s murder’)

Game Play 4
Terrible, I feel sick when I play this game, you can’t just flick it on and have a shoot about, it feels like you’re an actor following stage directions, it has no freedom, no manuverability and worst of all, the controls. I sat there when I was looking at the box and thought ‘please, let it be R to shoot, not A like Star Wars!!!’ it’s R, and yet that doesn’t save the guns from not packing any punch, you can shoot a hundred bullets into a guy and he still can say ‘Hey!’ and shoot at you. Are they all related to Rasputin or something?!? Anyway, it has the typical, lock on, but that doesn’t work, and when you can’t stop aiming at a guy a mile away and get killed by the guy in front of you, you feel like throwing your controller out the window. It has the standard stand behind a wall, duck, but these are so hard to accomplish, you don’t bother, just stand behind a wall and wait. Anyway, and the stealth element is absolutely terrible, you’re going down a hedge maze garden, guards are there, you can kill one and for some reason the others see you though the wall! Oh, and your silenced PP7 isn’t silent… This is absolutely woeful. Why’s it get a 4 not 3? When you press B when locked onto an enemy, you can aim at specific parts (not automatically thank god!) And shoot grenades from soldiers belts to get them all. But come on!!! Why can’t EA make this an FPS? This would resolve these control issues. Still it wouldn’t improve the levels that I’d be kind to describe as bland.

Re-playability 2
You’ll play this, you’ll get to level 3 or maybe even 4. You’ll realise this is crap. You’ll think should I do humanity a favour and burn this (a much higher entertainment value than playing it) or sell it for a tenner? You’ll look at the multiplayer and say WTF is going on? You’ll think ‘I’m hungry’, bye bye disc, or maybe that’s just me.

Overall 5
I played this, I hoped for something at least a bit entertaining, I paid a fiver for this, it’s not worth that. Sean Connery’s the only thing this game’s got going for it. EA have made the biggest cash in I’ve ever played. Don’t fall into their trap. Even if you think ‘well how bad can it be?’ DON’T BUY THIS. EVER. Buy the film, this is like that, but %50 worse. And that’s as a film, not a game.

New Super Mario Bros.

2007-04-23T09:51:00.000-07:00

Reviewer: Regiwi

Consoles: Nintendo DS

Genre: Adventure

Age Rating; 3+

First Impressions
At first this looks like the dream of any Mario fan, a 2d platformer is what made Mario the biggest star of Nintendo. The Mario games on the NES and SNES were the most popular games on the system. So the idea of a brand new 2d platformer starring Mario after about 14 years since the last (not including Mario characters games e.g.. Yoshi’s island and not remakes) should sound brilliant to any Mario fan.

Graphics 9
The graphics are amazing, the effects, the colour and the characters are absolutely brilliant. In motion the game looks much more amazing than in screenshots because of all the movement. One example of this is in a castle with water on the ground, there’s not enough water to swim in but it just adds to the effect of making the castle feel all damp and disgusting. Wait till you see world 8….

Sound 9
The sound effects are great and the music is cool, quite different to typical Mario music but reminded me more of Paper Mario music and to a lesser extent Mario kart music.

Game Play 10
This game is the most fun game you can get on the DS, the controls are well suited, Mario is slightly lighter, great for beginners and for experts there are difficult ways of preventing yourself from dying by wall jumping up a wall to try to escape a fall into oblivion. The game play is different, there are the puzzle orientated ghost houses, the climbs up the fortresses and lots of other forms of variety. The game can even shock you with surprise traps ect. The game is not incredibly difficult, but has very difficult parts, my personal grievance is with snowlands penguins.

Re-playability 9
Now, like me you may have read a lot of reviews saying the game is too short and that people completed it in a day. I felt then that this game was going to be short and a huge disappointment. These reviews I read actually made the game a better experience for me since I was surprised at the length of the game. I finished the game after playing 5 hours straight, but then I had played it solid, I’ve played Mario games before and I only played the easy route. On each level there are 3 giant coins that are hidden away or in very challenging to get to areas. I had only beaten 6 of the 8 worlds in the game. I still had to find the coins on every level to unlock the last 2 worlds. This is a very difficult feat and will take you ages. Even when you’ve completed the game there is a lot of secrets to uncover and the levels are so fun, it’s great to replay them. Also as I have just found out, there are alternate exits in some worlds, I've only found one so I don't know how many more there are. I have found out the reason why the before mentioned reviews were so negative while playing. Firstly most of the people who played Mario before and were excited about this new game, would typically of bought it and played it solid, this would make you be able to complete practically any game within a day. Secondly, when the originals came out no one had played a game like it before making it seem extremely difficult, if you went back and played them now they would probably seem a lot easier.

Overall 9
This game is excellent, and is a must buy if you’re a DS owner. This game can hold it’s head up high with the originals, not surpassing them but not being any worse.

Review round up
Positive
+Stunning graphics
+Fantastic Game play
+Nice tunes
+Brilliant effects
+lots of secrets
+Great multiplayer

Negative
- Most minigames are the same as M64DS
- The main path can be beaten quickly if played solid (not including secret levels and worlds)
- No Yoshi. We need him or something else if there's a sequel.
- Very basic storyline, heck they don't even say any text.

Sonic DX seems like any 3d sonic game and that is true... kind of.

Sound 7
Nice tunes and the voices aren't very bad.

Game Play 7

Now this is the bad part. Sonic’s high-speed adrenalin rushes

are great and the best aspect of the game. Then there's tails levels which are races with sonic. Now we come to the bad. Knuckles' levels are about finding hidden emerald shards in boring puzzles. Amy a female hedgehog has levels being chased by a robot. Now she's not as fast as sonic so you'd think ok she's probably as fast as tails... no, she moves as fast as tails walks.Now on to my most hated character, Big the cat. It seems he is in the game to add variety with his fishing levels, which he does in his first level. Why oh why didn't it end there. You must fish for his friend who's a frog. This would of been good as a one level break but no, 4 slow paced fishing levels in a sonic game and you have to complete them to get to the final level. Gamma is a corrupt robot who's story I liked a lot and his levels weren't too bad. They were quick and to the point. Now the final level I will tell you is brilliant, that's all.

Re-playability 8

Right you've done all the hard work now there's a whole load secrets to get and the brilliant sonic levels to replay.

Well, that's it in thier respect. Unless there is something incredibly wrong with the games (which happens more often than anyone would dream.) This is the Final version of the Captain N games. In other words, this is a perfectchance for you to introduce yourself to the series if you have never played the games before. The story is that many years after the adventures of Captain N (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_N) The gaming universe has scattered and links have been severed between worlds. Add to this a new nemisis to the survival of the Gaming Universe and you have got trouble. The tales of the old Captain N have passed into legend, however an agency who has been trying to keep peace, takes a risk that the legend was true. They have chosen you to save thier universe. Can you rise to the challenge?

Not alot to say atm. Captain N 3's been started, Captain N 2's being remade out of my lazyness at Castlevania's part. Also a whole new bonus mission will be available when the remakes finished which features one last familiar face from the past. If you complete the bonus mission, you will be awarded a code, which when used in the next game unlocks special features.

2006-06-15T03:27:00.000-07:00

Well I have it all scripted (in my mind) and I know where I'm going with the story but I haven't made too much of it yet. Just so you know NES town mentioned at the start of part one is basically the old gaming universe from the nes days and the original show. I thought I might as well research the old show and found out that there was an N team (makes sense since he's called captain.) made up of mostly third party characters like megaman, Simon Belmont (Castlevania), his dog (yep a bit random) Some princess from the palace of power which is the gateway to all the worlds (not too bad since it shows the show didn't just use pre made characters) and kid Icarus (the only Ninty created character by my counting.)Although I don't want to get too much like the old show I thought that maybe for fans of the old show I'd use a few of the old characters and maybe reunite the old N team in NES town. Also that's the master in the trailer in case you couldn't guess. I also thought I'd put a couple of easter egg glitches in as well.

There was a tv series a few years ago in which a kid called Kevin went in to the gaming universe and managed to live in all the game worlds. Baically in tribute I'm making a game based on it. So far the completed level is the mushroom kingdom. But I will make Hyrule and dreamland. Here are the few Screenshots. (Mario characters all copyrighted to nintendo.)

Time travel RPG

2006-01-06T16:13:00.000-08:00

Sadly, this project has been cancelled due to delays and my loss of interest. However, one day, it might be made.

"Time travel- this game has 1 city, you can travel through time to different time periods which are entitled...

Future fanfare- the future in which there is no ruler and all are equal. Everything is perfect. All areas are controled by the motherbrain Computer. Space travel is possible....

Present day- possibly the greatest age so far, people live longer, have more money and are more equal.

The war of the world- The first full world war.

Industrial triumph- The age of industry and pollution, travel is much easier now.

Travelling nations- The age when maps were finally showing land instead of saying 'here be dragons' where unexplored land was. Ship voyages can be dangerous though...

The Empire that swallowed the world- The very advanced Empire has awept much of the globe under it's grasp...

The Age the world forgot- The world not much knowledge is known of. Only Neanderthauls exist here.....

There will be many refarences to history, using my Horrible histories, but not all is true in this world of mine....

Story-

The storyline is that a famous scientist has created a time machine and you being his best friend are invited to the unvailing. Many government and world officials will be there for the event, but not everyone's there just for the food..... "
