Review on Tetris

Developer(s): Nintendo R&D1, Bullet-Proof Software
Publisher(s): Nintendo
System(s): NES, Nintendo Game Boy
Genre(s): Puzzle
Release Date: (NA) August 1989
Rating: Everyone

Gameplay:
Tetris is probably the most simple video game ever made but it is so addictive that it still has you coming back to it at least once a week. You have many different shaped blocks and the object of the game is to stack them the perfect way each time where you can get a straight line consisting them. When you do this the line disappears and gives you points. What a great idea you might ask? Well, Nintendo didn't actually come up with the idea. It was really programmed by Alexey Pajitnov from the Soviet Union who named it "Tetяis".

Graphics:
Well Graphics are decent for a Game Boy and NES game, flat and old.

Extra Features:
Whats pretty cool about this version of Tetris is it has a multiplayer option on both the NES and the Game Boy. Tetris games with the Game Boy you need a friend with a Game Boy and a copy of Tetris and you need a a link cable to hook up to both of your Game Boys so you can play 2 player unless you have the NES version.

Rating:
Decent game not very fun but not very boring either, pretty addictive this game gets a 6/10.

Review on Metroid Prime

Developer(s): Retro Studios
Publisher(s): Nintendo
System(s): Nintendo Gamecube
Genre(s): First-person shooter, action-adventure
Release Date: (NA) November 19, 2002 (EU) March 21, 2003
Rating: Teen

Gameplay:
This game is full of great fun and adventure. Sometimes frustrating, this game is full of many puzzles and fighting skill much like Legend of Zelda. This game is basically a futuristic first person shooter but also an adventure game. throughout the game you will have a lot of data to scan from enemies you see for the first time, to computer data. You can even scan bosses if you ever get a chance without getting hit by it. Something I do not like very much about this game though is that you have to keep playing until you find a room that allows you to save.

Story:
It all starts when Samus Aran lands on the Space Pirate Frigate, a ship that orbits around the planet, Tallon IV, after hearing a signal of distress about its crew that had just been slaughtered by the space pirate's experiments. On the Space Pirate Frigate after she defeats the Parasite Queen the giant extraterrestrial monster falls to the core of the ship quickly dying. This causes the space ship to countdown to its self-destruction, giving Samus only a couple of minutes to get out of it so she can survive avoiding enemies and space pirates on the way. half way out of the ship she meets up with her old pal, Ridley, except this time Ridley has been transformed by the space pirates into a cyborg beast renamed, Meta Ridley, due to being damaged so badly from last time Samus defeated it, flying away, Samus quickly gets out and starts chasing Meta Ridley, but loses it. She lands on the planet Tallon IV and that's when the game really starts.

Graphics:
Metroid Prime is the first 3-D Metroid game in the series and had very good graphics at the time. They are very well designed and there is a lot of depth in them. I also enjoy how they make them so detailed at times if you look at close ups on Samus's head inside the robot suit you can see her face through the green glass.

Extra Features:
A special extra feature has been added to this game too. If you own any kind of Gameboy Advance with the game Metroid Fusion (Beaten). Then with a Gamecube and a special cord called, the Link Cable, that allows you to connect the Gamecube with the Gameboy Advance along with Metroid Prime and the beaten game of Metroid Fusion in each system and you can acquire the NES Metroid game playable on Metroid Prime.

Rating:
This is a very fun Gamecube game I love it. It gets an 8/10 recommended to any kind of a gamer.

*Old School Game Reviews* Review on Donkey Kong Country

Today's review is of Donkey Kong Country. Well, to start off with this game is a very great game the gameplay is amazing it is maybe one of my few favorite SNES games. The bosses and levels are awesome and of course there is going to be a great soundtrack of 90's video game music. The story of the game is King K. Rool has once again stolen something from the DK's the bananas that belong to Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong and you have to run throughout the game tracking down King K. Rool. While going through levels and worlds. You always bump into Donkey Kong's friends that help you on your way like Candy Kong, Funky Kong, and Cranky Kong. They each have specific jobs to do on your way for saving the game, bringing you to a certain location in the game, or just explaining unreasonable, boring stories to you. The game's multiplayer is pretty cool too. You can play as one player playing as Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong depending on how you die or you can play as two players and you can either work together with your friend or just play against each other. Now to the graphics, they are actually kinda ahead of the SNES's time it wasn't 3-D but the characters in it actually looked 3-D they were great just like this whole game! I give it a 9/10

Review on Sonic the Hedgehog The Beginning

This is a rare book to find, I can't find anything else that has to do with this book on the internet. This is a good book it includes Sonic the Hedgehog Comics from 1993. This Comic Book has a silly (sometimes corny) sense of humor. But it is a great book especially if your a fan of the old Sonic series it involves characters that no longer star in the series and some of my favorite parts is whenever it says Dr. Robotnik instead of Eggman. I love this book I don't know if I could rate a book but what the heck! I'll just give it a 9/10.
