TimeSplitters: Future Perfect (2005 Video Game)

Like a Time Machine?So this is for you.

[24 September 2005]

Timesplitters Future Perfect is the third game of the series. It has cool graphics, a realistic visual.The main character is Cortez, a guy very similar to Vin Diesel in Riddick's movie. As a good movie, Timesplitters has a good sound, with real voices and nice musics.The sound effects are good too. The game is a little difficult, but it's not impossible. All the game courses are in different times(1912 and more), and then all of the guns are of different times, such as Soviet rifles and Scotish revolvers from the beginning of the twentieth century. The best part of the game is the creation of maps for Multiplayer games.You can create all types of maps, such as Egypt and Western. Timesplitters Future Perfect is a good game, recommended for Shooter and Sci-Fi fans.

GRAPHICS-9

SOUND-9

CONTROLS-8

FUN FACTOR-10

Score: 9/10.

Pet Alien (2004–2005)

It's a cool series.

[24 September 2005]

Pet Alien is a cool cartoon with aliens, comedy and confusions.

It's about a boy named Tommy Cadle, who lives in a lighthouse with five alien friends, such as Gumpers, a fat alien who only thinks in food.

At every episode the aliens(who don't know almost nothing of planet Earth), treat common objects of life as different things.In one episode, the aliens treated a balloon as a superior alien race.And they've treated a vacuum as a monster.

The cartoon looks idiot and and educational(Such as Discovery Kids cartoons), but it is very funny.

Watch it at Cartoon Network.

Project Gotham Racing 2 (2003 Video Game)

Oh my, Batman!

[23 May 2005]

Gotham is the best racer for Xbox.Really, why not? A game you can use Ferrari Enzo, Porsche Carrera, the Lotus Exige, while hearing your favorite CD tracks at many cities, like Moscow, Chicago, Yokohama, Barcelona. The killer graphics are amazing, and the controls are very simple, using the intelligent way of using R button for accelerating(It's good because R button is very analogical). Like Burnout and Need for Speed, you can earn Style Points(Called KuDos in this game), but here you don't use them as Nitous Charges, but as Challenge Scores.

The Best: Almost everything in the game.

The Worst: Loadings are a little long at the opening scene

KuDo: What an ugly word!

Grand Theft Auto III (2001 Video Game)

When Godfather meets Boyz in the Hood

[13 April 2005]

GTA3 was released late for Xbox, but it's much better than the PS2 version.The graphics are a little better, and now you can listen to your favorite CD tracks when you're in a car.Just save the music in the HD of Xbox. The city called Liberty City is a metropolis and many factions control the city, the Mafia in Portland and the Yakuza in Stauton. The game is now in 3D and with awesome graphics and sound.The radios are great. The controls are better than the PS2 version.The shooting and acceleration buttons are in better positions. And the Fun Factor?GIANT!The game is very big and challenging, with a great story, but you can go terrifying the city as you like.Riding the Infernus(Like a Ferrari), a Kuruma(Chrysler), the Cheetah(Lamborghini) and many other cars. The game has many missions, more than 70.

The Best: A big neighborhood for playing

The Worst: Some camera bugs are disgusting

Your character: He's ugly and doesn't have even a name!

Ninja Gaiden (2004 Video Game)

Tecmo's best

[31 March 2005]

Ninja Gaiden is one of the best Xbox games ever made.The graphics are even better than Halo and Fable. The voices are good and the musics too. The game tells about Ryu Hayabusa in his seeking for revenge against Dark Dragon, who destroyed his village. The game is very difficult and challenging.Even in the Easy difficulty you will suffer a lot. You will like this game if you're fan of games like Zelda and games like Shinobi. The only problem is the load time, that is very long.

The Best: Amazing graphics and difficulty!

The Worst: The load times are very long

Xbox Live: Put your ranking

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 (2003 Video Game)

The best DBZ game in Gamecube

[27 March 2005]

DBZ Budokai 2 is incredible! The game really looks like the cartoon, it's identical! The environments are beautiful bu they're not cartoonized.The voices are of the same actors of the TV series. The controls are a little difficult, but they have good responses. The game has a boring 1P mode, Dragon World, like a board game, but the fight parts are fantastic. The good part is the great number of fighters and moves, like Kamehameha or the Galick Gun! So, if you like DBZ and have a Gamecube(Or a PS2), you must have this game.It's the best!

The Best: Many characters and moves, graphics are great

The Worst: The Dragon Mode!

Most Idiot Move: A Present for You!

Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (I) (1994 Video Game)

May the force be with you

[7 March 2005]

This Star Wars game has the best graphics, sounds, controls and courses of all 3 Snes games. You can use many folks of the movies, like Luke and his lightsaber, Chewie and its Bowcaster, Leia in the Boushh armor and Han Solo with his smuggler guns. The game is a little easier than the other 2 games.The number of courses is also bigger and the 3d courses are more cool.You can use even the Speederbikes! But even that the game is easier, it is very difficult even in the most dummy difficulty.

The Best: The best Star Wars game for Snes

The Worst: The game is still to difficult!

Chewie!: It roars!

Halo 2 (2004 Video Game)

Incredible!

[7 March 2005]

Halo 2 is my favorite Xbox game. The graphics are spectacular, the best of Xbox, and the load times aren't bad. The sound is very good,with good voices and sound effects. The gameplay shows why Xbox has so good Shooter games like Counter-Strike, Doom 3 and Battlefield.The controls are very good and they're not confusing, with good responses and NO slowdowns.Even the vehicles have good controls. The game will make you stop in front of your TV playing for hours because of two reasons:

1- The game is big

2- The Multiplayer is excellent.

All of these topics show how good Halo 2 is.So if you have a Xbox, you can't live without this game.Seriously.

The Best: Everything at the game

The Worst: I didn't found yet

Best vehicle: Banshee!

Super Mario World (1990 Video Game)

Very cool as Super 3

[7 March 2005]

I play this game at the XSnesX9 emulator for Xbox.The game is extremely cool, with beautiful graphics, many many courses, secret areas, items and many more. Yoshi appears to be your chivalry.Yoou can use the green, the red(It spits fire), the blue(It flies) and the yellow(creates quakes). The sound is cool.The Yoshi Island 3 music is the best.The music even appeared at a course in Super Smash Bros Melee. But nothing is perfect, and this game isn't different.The Multiplayer is like the Single Player, only one player per round, Not so cool.

The Best: More than 40 Courses!!

The Worst: Multiplayer is really a Single Player Mode

Best Yoshi: The blue one

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003–2010)

Good even without the classic villains.

[20 February 2005]

TMNT's revival, this series were completely different. There's not Rockstead or Bebop, not even the brain belt(I don't remember his name)! But even without the classic villains(Now only Shredder, a fat dude and a street gang) the new series are good.Now the turtles are more mature and aggressive, and the combats are better. The story is very similar to the old series.The first episode is the attack at the sewers, because of little bots called Mousers. Then some different things happen, like the new "hero", a maniac called Casey Jones(He uses a hockey club to attack).

Now, even with strong differences, TMNT is a cool cartoon and I recommend it.

Die Hard: Vendetta (2002 Video Game)

Too difficult. 6/10

[19 February 2005]

Die Hard was a promise of VU Games, saying that would be the best movie-based game of all time.If the promise was cool graphics and police cop realism, the promise was accomplished.But if the promise was a cool game that after 2 or 3 times you pass a course, they had not accomplished.You only pass a course after 9 or 10 tries.It's a extremely HARD game.Perhaps they used "Die HARD" to make a game "Finish HARD".It's impossible to pass the courses.The game could be better if it had a Multiplayer Mode.Don't buy it, only rent if if you think you're a very very good game player.

The Best: Cop realism, good graphics

The Worst: Very Very difficult

Missing: Multiplayer Mode

What a Cartoon!: Johnny Bravo (1995) Season 1, Episode 5

That's cool

[9/10 · 19 February 2005]

This is the old cartoon that made the TV series. Johnny Bravo, a greatly muscled and dumb macho promised a girl that he would bring back her gorilla. In the following of this short cartoon, the gorilla has a discussion with a bandit. The bandit says that the gorilla was a Big Fat Whale. And then the gorilla says three things to the bandit:

"Your mother is so big that when she puts her sandals she reaches the clouds!"

"Your face is so ugly that could make an onion cries!"

"You're fat!"

After that, Johnny finds the gorilla but the girl goes away after.

Pirates! (2004 Video Game)

...hum...good.

[12 February 2005]

"We are pirates, terrible and killers; we're kings of the sea".

The remake of the classic game of 1987 is so cool as the first one.Sudently you'll see at the seventeenth century at a sea adventure without beginning or end.Yes: in Pirates you choose if you want to go steal some treasures or simply dedicate a life as a merchant.With the flow of time, your pirate will begin getting old and then the game ends. Then you have first to have a successful career, being known as the best pirate(Or anything you want to be in the game) of all time.

The Best: The mix of many variated styles

The Worst: Pirates have a short life

Old thing: This is a remake of a 87 game.

Resident Evil 4 (2005 Video Game)

Back to the world of the dead-alives.

[12 February 2005]

Even with its successful history, all Resident Evil games are many similar to each other: Zombies, mansions, puzzles, limited ammo and final bosses that you have to defeat within the time limit. But this Resident evil is different.No zombies(Now abducted men), no mansion(Now a village), no puzzles(Now only a few, but not so difficult), no limited ammo(Now there are gun sellers) and no final bosses within time limit. The hero now is Leon Kennedy, of Resident Evil 2.Now he is a police cop that works to the president and has the mission to rescue the president's daughter, who is in a village in somewhere of Europe. The game is perfect, being one of the possible Game of the Year, and remember that the year has just started.The graphics are the most beautiful ever seen before on Gamecube.The sound is great, with voices.You can hear the "zombies" shout "detrás de ti" and many other phrases.Also non-abducted people talk very good.

The Best: Perfect graphics and controls

The Worst: Some dialogs are boring

Don't: wait too long for playing the PS2 version.Play now at Gamecube!

2 Fast 2 Furious (2003)

It gonna make Ben-Hur look like a baby buggy race.

[8/10 · 10 February 2005]

2 Fast 2 Furious is the sequel of The Fast and Furious, but everyone knows that. The races are very cool and exciting, looking like Need for Speed Underground.The nitrous boosts, the escape from the cops and the jump across the bridge were extremely cool. In the story, Brian O'Connor slept out the police and now he was living only for racing drags and things like that.But he was caught by a cop at the end of a race and had a proposal.He would help the cops investigate a drug seller or he would be arrested.Then the story flows.I will not tell everything about the story, if you want to know more go see the movie. The car parts are great, but some parts like the fight next Brian's boat was really boring. 8/10

Need for Speed: Underground 2 (2004 Video Game)

Incredible for miles and miles!

[5 February 2005]

Need for Speed Underground 2 is the best racing game of all time, with no doubts about it. The graphics are AMAZING!They're perfect, it really looks like real life. The sound is great.Many songs, including one of Snoop Dogg, and others, being only Heavy Metal and Rap(Excluding one Techno music). The controls are a little difficult at the beginning of the game, but after a time you'll see that are simple controls. And the Fun Factor is great, too.You will play hours and hours without knowing. The score of this game is really 10!

The Best: Almost everything in the game.

The Worst: Controls a little difficult.

Deception: Nitro is not so amazing as the other game...

Metal Gear: Ghost Babel (2000 Video Game)

GB Color's perfection!

[1 February 2005]

Metal Gear(aka Ghost Babel) is the best action game of Game Boy Color. In the game, Solid Snake has to go to a small country on Africa and destroy a new Metal Gear.But Snake only accepts the mission when he remembered that that country was other arena against other Metal Gear at the past. The game's graphics are good for GB Color.The sound is medium, not bad, not good after all. The good part is the controls.And the game is very enjoyable. Could be the only problem that the Saving is really bad?Many times the game is saved is really reseted.

The best:The best GB Color game

The Worst: The save is bad

Not on GC, but yes at GB:VR Missions

Enter the Matrix (2003 Video Game)

Amazing!

[31 January 2005]

Enter the Matrix was the most expensive game made.It was 20 million dollars for its production.But the money made an amazing game, with marvelous graphics, great sounds(of the actors of the movies) and a great difficulty level, making a high fun factor. The game links the "Final Flight of the Osiris" and "Matrix Reloaded".In the first level of the game, the two heroes have to go to a post office and get the letter of Julie, the captain of the Osiris. The game is great, with only a problem: the hacker mode is ridiculous.

The Best: Amazing graphics and sounds

The Worst: the terrible hacking mode

Linking: Final Flight of the Osiris to Reloaded

Crazy Taxi (1999 Video Game)

This arcade rocks!

[11 January 2005]

Crazy Taxi is one of the best games around, launched in Dreamcast,PS2, Gamecube,Arcade and Xbox.Your objective is to collect passengers and deliver them into their destinations in a city just like as San Francisco. The graphics were good only for the Dreamcast.The other versions had the same graphics, but not so good for the power of the other consoles. But this doesn't matter, because the game was so cool, with great songs of Offspring and Bad Religion and with the high Fun Factor.This game could be old for all systems,but is one of the best of all of them.

The Best: The cool Metal songs, very high Fun Factor

The Worst: Graphics weren't so powerful

Gamecube Cheat: When selecting a player press quickly L,R,L,R,L,R to use a Taxi bicycle.

Viewtiful Joe 2 (2004 Video Game)

Henshin again Baby!

[9 January 2005]

Joe is back, and in a game better than the the first. Now you can play with Joe's girlfriend, Sylvia, in the 1-P mode without having to finish the game first. The gameplay(Excellent) and the graphics(Perfect) were not changed, so the game does not lose its charm and mark, the Cel-Sheding graphics.But the game has some problems.There's not a Multiplayer mode, and the Replay factor is low.After finishing it, it goes to the shelf.

The Best: Game cooler than the first

The Worst: No Multiplayer

The New ability: Replay

Rampage: World Tour (1997 Video Game)

The bad Arcade.

[4 January 2005]

What is cool in destroying 2-D cities? What is cool that the cities are all the same? This is the prove of the bad quality of Rampage World Tour, one of the worst N64 games and certainly the worst Arcade you can find through the entire Universe. The bad thing is the 2-D graphics.They are terrible to the power of the N64.It looks like a SNES game. The game could be very cool if the courses were in 3-D, but they're not, so I rate 3.It only don't gets 1 because of the Underworld and the Area 51 courses.

The Best: Underworld and Area 51 courses

The Worst: All of the Rest

Looks like you're playing: SNES

Star Tours (1987)

The coolest simulator ever!

[10/10 · 4 January 2005]

What is the best feature at Disney MGM?Together with Indiana Jones is Star Tours, the great simulator of Star Wars. You are in a strange fusion of bus and spaceship.The cool thing is that the simulator is very realistic and loyal to Star Wars Saga, so you can sense a great speed when you enter Hyperspace or when you are evading laser shots at the Death Star. The "bus" is controlled by R2 and a droid called RX-1138, or just Rex, a troublesome droid who makes many mistakes during the film, like entering an ice asteroid. But afteralls, Star Tours is perfect, just like Star Wars!

10!

The Sims Vacation (2002 Video Game)

Now they go vacation!

[4 January 2005]

Sims in Vacation is another expansion of the real life simulator. Now, together with many new cool items, the new innovation is making a brand new hotel with infinite money for making a 6-star deluxe hotel or a bad street motel. The new items include igloos, snowboard half-pipes, fishing pond, public phone, arcades and many others. The game is recommended for fans not only of The Sims, but also for Sim City, because of the creation of the Hotels.The only problem is the Load Times that are very long

The Best: The hotel creation mode

The Worst: Terrible Load Times.

Strange: Put an igloo at the beach

Super Mario 64 DS (2004 Video Game)

It's-a hard to control

[3 January 2005]

While playing Super Mario 64 DS, I realized it's still one of the best 3D action/platform games around.It's been a good time since the N64 version, I'd forgotten about its simple design, creative worlds and amazingly addictive gameplay that has you hunting for a giant number of stars. All right, so a Nintendo game that's stood the test of time...not a great revolution, but still the classic we love and with new things. As Mario 64 stands, it's 90% the same 1996 game, with briefs of flashback content. But there's a real problem.Because DS don't has stick, the gameplay becomes bad.But this will never destroy this game.

THE BEST-It's still one of the best 3D games around

THE WORST-Bad controls

150-New number of stars

What a Cartoon: Larry & Steve (1997)

Bad!

[1/10 · 3 January 2005]

This is one of another What a Cartoon short movies that was shown at Cartoon Network.But, unlike Hillbilly Blue and Gramps, this cartoon is really a bad thing. This cartoon tells about a little documentary made by a talking dog saying about his new pathetic life with a bald dumb called Larry.After buying him, Larry goes to a department store in downtown to buy some new furniture.But the old guy makes many stupidities like putting a nuclear globe in a common lamp and then destroying part of the store, or when he puts his dog in a little SPA bed but Larry adjust to a killing(And not relaxing) speed. Afteralls, my vote is simply 1.I can't give 0, and I can't give more than one, because this is a crap!
