Editorial Review

Now anyone with a PlayStation can dive into the hobby ofradio-controlled helicopter flying without the enormous financial cost or therisk of crashing as you learn to fly. R/C Stunt Copter, believeit or not, is an absolutely enthralling and entertaining game.

Wisely, the game integrates a training mode as a must-play startercourse before advancing to the mission-based aerial challenges.However, don't expect to snooze your way through the missions: thedynamic vocal host spouts out plenty of snide and witty remarks to keepgamers on their toes. Also, excellent carnival-like music accompanieseach bit of the game, including menu screens, training levels, andvarious gaming segments. Extremely touchy controls emulate the realthing, while the game provides words of encouragement to help youmaster dangerous stunts such as loops, rolls, and even inverted flight.With rich gameplay and helpful flying tips, this game achieves the rarefeat of teaching while it entertains. A must-own! --JeffYoung

Pros:

  • Outstanding presentation makes for a mix of learning and fun
  • Superb physics model and controls give the feeling of reallycontrolling a tiny copter
  • Extremely challenging levels will keep players coming back for more

Cons:

  • The concentration required may be too frustrating for youngerplayers

3-0 out of 5 stars A Fun little game
This unique little game lets you fly rc helicopters, it involes the use of both joysticks to piolt you copter though the different trials. It's pretty fun, but with there isn't a whole lot to do in the game. If it had an battle mode or something...

1-0 out of 5 stars Annoying game, could have been better
The first thing your going to do when you play this game is mute your TV. Almost any move you attempt will cause your virtual instructor to make some kind of comment. This gets real old, real fast, aspecially when you realize how difficult it is to fly one of the RC Copters.
Any little tap on the controls, sends your copter out of control, so the last thing you need to hear is none stop, repeaded joking comments.

The layout of this game sucks. Your restricted to a little peice of land for each stage, so if your looking for a game where you can fly around and explore, then this is not your game.

I personally have never flown a remote controlled copter before, but if this game is accurate, then I'm not ever going to waste my money on something that will end up having an ultimate destiny of being smashed to pieces out of frustration.

So is this game worth it? Maybe, if you get it really, really, really cheap, or if you have already mastered remote controlled copters in the real world. If they make another one of these games, then they need to add a whole lot more to it. Some may like it, but I don't.

No stars!

5-0 out of 5 stars Heli Flight
Heli flight is 10x more difficult than model airplanes. The training program on this game is great. If it didn't have that automatic help, you'd be all over the place. Like starting out with an ace helicopter. This game does in fact help you fly REAL model helis. The only catch is, you MUST use the dual shock analog controller and use the two joysticks and become efficient with the ace helicopter(s).It's also not just a trainer for going into model flight, it's also a challenge and great fun. I have a helicopter and this game does help out a lot. Or, if you have an Intel Pentium, you can go to ... and get a REAL FLIGHT Simulator for about ... and you can really see what it's like. That'll be a LOT more REALISTIC than this game but this PSX game does help out a lot.

5-0 out of 5 stars A great surprise!
This game really surprised me in a couple of ways.

I kept hearing it was really hard and frustrating, but I just went through the training first, and it helped me get my skills up high enough to manage just fine.Then Islowly made my way up to harder and harder copters.Great sense ofprogression!

Something I didn't expect at all was the humor.There is avoice giving surprisingly intelligent feedback to just about everything youdo, and he's really funny.And there's a 'virtual' hand you can throw upto block the screen when you're playing against someone else in the2-player mode.

And the whole time you're learning to fly a real r/chelicopter!I've never flown one myself, but now that I can manage the Acecopter in this game,I can't wait to give it a try with a real one, andmaybe even buy one myself if I can afford it.

Very unique...a greatbreath of fresh air!

5-0 out of 5 stars a different genre
This has got to be one of the most original games ever! It can get frustrating at times but it pays off in the end.The makers say you will not finish the game and to me it's that much of a job! ... Read more

My name is Mark Thomas Stillwell and this game is awsum.I went on vacatoion and this game kept me intertained the whole time.My dad was calling me a frootloopp because I was playing a girl game but I say that boys will be boys even if they don't know if they like girls or boys.Peace out girls!!!(*

4-0 out of 5 stars Fun clothes
Fun two player games with 10 levels.Girls love changing snowsuits and inline skating outfit.Use points to buy new gear at sport shop.Secret areas and key to unlock ultimate level.Vibration function compatible.

4-0 out of 5 stars mom of 1girl & 3 boys
I happened to like this game.It is kind of basic so since I have 4 children under the age of 7 it is easy for them to play.It was bought for my 4 year old daughter and she loves it.She has as much fun picking out the outfits as she does playing the game.

3-0 out of 5 stars Could be better
I thought this game was kind of dull.It is not as cool as the "Manufacturers Review" makes it sound.The only thing you have control over is turning and the outfit you wear.You can't even jump. Even the outfit you wear is limited to around five or six outfits whichdon't mix and match.The way you gain points is by collecting purpletickets.That wouldn't be so bad but there is a limited supply.If youcollect all the tickets you can get the best skates/snowboard but then yourout of tickets and you can't get anything else.It doesn't even help toget "upgraded equipment" with the snowboards because you don't gomuch faster (as if you were going fast to begin with) and you don't needfast skates to win the game.So there is really no point.You supposedlyget a cool prize when you win but all it is is a ten second video thatshows a trophy.This is also the first game I have beaten that has tookonly about 45 minutes to beat.There is no real challange to it.Inconclusion this game is okay to rent but I would rent it before buying itso you know if it is something that you will like. I can almost guaranteethat most people will get bored with it after a few times of beating it. ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Awful
I bought this thinking it would be something like Resident Evil but it turned out awful. The camera angle is often akward, and it seems like your going through the same train car the entire game. DON'T BUY!

1-0 out of 5 stars AWFUL!! Stinks..
I bought this game with the intention of enjoying a great espionage/covert thriller. Instead, I got a game that had horrible camera angles, clunky controls and a monotonous environment-It ain't Syphon Filter, thats for sure-Save your money-I'm trading this in for something else!

4-0 out of 5 stars What if Syphon Filter & Dino Crisis had a baby?
This game contains the usual kill-the-bad-guy, collect-the-ammo, collect-the-cardkeys stuff that we've come to love from Dino Crisis, Syphon Filter and Metal Gear Solid.But it looks most like (and is similarly paced to) Dino Crisis.There's a lot of walking around and having no idea where you're going.But once you figure things out, then the fun begins.The cut-scenes are high-quality and the gameplay graphics are pretty good, too.If you enjoy exploring and puzzle solving in relative quiet, then Covert Ops is for you.But, if you'd rather have a more fast-paced game, then I'd recommend one of the Syphon Filter titles.At the very least, Covert Ops should help satisfy you until the next Syphon Filter game (Omega Strain) is released this fall.

4-0 out of 5 stars Rescue the Hostages, kill the badguys, save Paris.
As Lt. Jack Morton of NATO you are assigned to protect the french ambassador to Russia as he and his family return to France aboard the Blue Harvest passenger train. Everything seems okay then Jack's life is sent right down the toilet when a group of para-military terrorists attack the train, kill your entire unit, and hold the ambassador and his family for ransom. When things don't seem like they can get any worse, they do. Intelligence discovers the terrorists may have a nuke hidden on-board. Talk about problems! In my personnal experience with this game: What I like most is it has up to six different endings based on your skill. Everything from the nuke going off to you saving the day. Are you up to the challenge? I almost am. There is only one ending I have yet to reach.

4-0 out of 5 stars This game was ok.
Contrary to popular belief, this game was rather cool. The A.I was slow, but the action made up for that. If you liked Syphon Filter, and Metal Gear Solid, you should at least rent it. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars old timer agrees with youth
I was looking for good playstation games and got involved with game reviews. Previous reviewers are right, this game is great. Editorials are by persons who think they have experience because of exposure, a classic myth. This is one of my first games long ago and I will never part with it, though it has not been played in years. The hacking, bow shooting and throwing are not really deja vu (anyone speak french?). It took time to develop skill. True, the enemy is in the same place, an irritation now, but not back then. Eventually,sword skill and manuevering was so awesome (did not come easy), I wept after killing large numbers, because I did not want to stop. Entertaining and a pleasant Zena time passer.

5-0 out of 5 stars Battle On Xena!
I used to be and still am a big xena fan. This game is very cool I got it as a christmas present and I was very happy when played it for the first time.This is an action packed video game that will keep you playing for a longtime and thats were you can say battle on Xena!This game is perfect for any and mean any Xena fan ...

5-0 out of 5 stars I love Xena
I never loose to see Xena. When I am an adult I want to be like Xena. I love to be a warrior an I have much strength. I play Xena with my sister, I act as Xena and she acts as Grabrielle. Moreover it means that women are more warriors and more intelligent than men. Since I was a child I have had a lot of nerves and I have been willing to become a true warrior.

4-0 out of 5 stars Be the Warrior
This game is the sole reason I bought a Play Station. It was a blast and I really enjoyed playing it. Mastering all the unique Xena moves allows you to slaughter your foes with true warrior style. I was sad after I got through all the levels. I wish they would make another one with Gabrielle as a second player or just being in it more.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awsome!!!! A true Xenite game!
This is an awsome game! I know, I know, it doesn't have the best graphics, but the gameplay in AWSOME!!!! I love throwing the chakram. (the so called "ring thing") I am a true Xenite! (Xena fan) And it's a perfect game for our kind, and for all other gameplayers! It has the best fighting/adventure game qualities EVER!!!

Amazon.com Review

A first-person-shooter based on the Resident Evil series of"survival horror" video games, Resident Evil: Survivor is an unfortunatecasualty of political correctness. It's painfully obvious that this game wasmeant to be played with a light gun, which the Japanese version supports, butthe U.S. version decidedly does not. Instead, a rudimentary control scheme usingthe PlayStation controller has been substituted, one which is simply ill-suitedfor the otherwise unmodified arcade-style gameplay.

Were it not for this major shortcoming, Resident Evil: Survivor's otherflaws would be more tolerable, if not excusable. The attempt here to graftvarious elements of the Resident Evil games onto a shoot-'em-up justdoesn't take. The plot--which casts the player as an amnesiac who survives ahelicopter crash only to find himself in a foreboding town swarming with zombiesand other hideous biotechnological mutations--is more of a side story to theResident Evil saga, and not a very interesting one at that. The game'spuzzles practically solve themselves, and while your character is free (more orless) to go where he pleases, the gameplay is so terribly linear that it mightas well take place on a predetermined track. Once you factor in the game'scoarse graphics, choppy animation, and spotty sound, what you're left with hereis far more horrible than horrifying. --Joe Hon

Pros:

  • Provides some side-story elements to the Resident Evil saga
Cons:
  • No light gun support; substituted controls ill-suited for arcade-stylegameplay
  • Coarse graphics, choppy animation, and spotty sound
  • Short game length with practically no replay value

1-0 out of 5 stars NnyCW for Capcom City
Resident Evil Survivor, the black sheep of the Resident Evil family. Compared to the rest of the Resident Evil's, yes, this game is bad. However, it is not unplayable. The lack of any and all save points means that you're going to have to go thru the entire game in one sitting...and that can be quite a challenge. However, considering how easy the game is, it's not because of difficulty. This game just is bad. Now, if you have a bunch of friends over who love Resident Evil like you do and you just want to be able to say you beat them all, this game does have some redeeming value. It's great for a laugh with a group of friends at just how bad it is. This game is more of a collectors item for those who want to have the entire Resident Evil series and who want to beat them all rather than for those who want a fun and enjoyable game to play. Stay away unless you're Resident Evil thru and thru. NnyCW for CapCity.

1-0 out of 5 stars Atrocious at best
Don't waste on second of your time with this game.It belongs in the trash. No saves,2 hours to beat the whole game,and the worst graphics ever.You'd have more fun being attacked by a rabid dog than playing this game. Just say no to this one.It's not even worth renting!!

4-0 out of 5 stars HORRID
This game is so terrible I didnt even finish it. I would rather play the first one a million times in a row then play this pathetic game. Even if you are a RE fan, don't get this. I only got it to put in my collection wich is going well right now. But anyways, DON'T GET IT.

3-0 out of 5 stars Decent Game
I'm a die-hard Resident Evil fan, so I got this one. I've only played it on my PS2 and it works great. However, you can't save the game, so you have to beat it in one sitting. I like that it's inventive, with the first person perspective, no track to follow, and the ability to carry an unlimited amount of items. Only get this if you love Resident Evil.

4-0 out of 5 stars Too easy for a REvil game

This game is ok. The first time I played it I thought it was boring. Then one day I decided to play it again and found that it wasn't bad at all. You won't waste you money, but after a couple games you more than likely will park it.

2-0 out of 5 stars The first one is much better
Die Hard Trilogy (the original) is much better than this game.While the graphics are improved, the controls and camera angles are a HUGE problem in this game.This game is more of the same and doesn't really offer anything new.I recommend the first one or at least rent this before you buy.

3-0 out of 5 stars Yippee Ki Yay!Again...
This game is pretty good.The first one is better.The graphics have improved in this one and the story is fine but the game is just not as fun.Also, the controls are not as good as they were in the first one.The story is all about John McClane (of course) who gets asked by a good friend to come down to Vegas to visit his casino.Unfortunately for John, trouble follows him once again.Buy this game if you have played or own the first game.

5-0 out of 5 stars VIVA LAS VEGAS BABY!YEA!
YES! Fox Interactive has done it again! An Excellent Die Hard game. Exelent graphics, and a new feature to the games, Movie mode. I'd say with this game they should come out with a new Die hard Trilogy Movie.

Onceagain John McLain is on suspension, and is feeling realy low until his goodbuddy Kenny Baker calles him from his office at the Mesa Grande Prison inLas Vegas, he invites him to a party because Kenny is the new warden at theprison. That is the plot, He then goes to Vegas and then he get's involved.

Match wit's with enemies who survey their surroundings, then react toyour actions in THIRD PERSON ACTION / ADVENTURE mode.

Put the pedel tothe metel in the EXTREME DRIVING mode, testing your sharpest reflexes. And, Arm yourself with the firepower of 12 differant weapons inSHARPSHOOTER mode.

All in all this is a pretty good game, besides theBlood on the walls after you kill some one. Well you find out for yourself. Play It! ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars My least favorite kart game
I found the graphics choopy, the Karts annoying to control, and the tracks boring. The kids and I love Kart games. We still play Mario Kart on Nintendo 64 and a Mickey Mouse racing game. Not to mention, we play CTR on Playstation and have a lot of fun with that. On all those games the Karts are cute, the tracks are fun, and so are the items. Can't say the same for this game.

3-0 out of 5 stars Nicktoons Racing
This game is pretty good for a Nicktoons game. Obviously, you race around trying to finish before other players like Eliza, CatDog, Spongebob, Patrick and more. This game is pretty easy and should only take you a couple of days to beat. You race through Nicktoon places like The Angry Beavers' dam or some CatDog environment thing. I will now rate this game by it's gameplay, graphics, sound, and control to decide my score for this game.

Gameplay:6/10: Fairly fun for a while but then you win 100 times. Man, this game gets boring quickly, so win the Grand Prix and then quit the game FOREVER!

Graphics:4/10: Cartoonish graphics just like the gameplay. The characters look like their animated self while the background seems mushy and not good.

Sound:3/10: It gets old after hearing Boop, bop, beep, boop, bop, beep over and over again.

Control:7/10: The cars are easy to control but they do go crazy at times like when you crash, you get in last usually.

Overall:20/40: I think that equals 2 and a half stars! But, since I can't seem to do halves, it rounds up to a 3! That's better than my Gadget Racers review!!!!! Maybe, soon, you'll see me again in one of my review things. See ya later!

4-0 out of 5 stars It was good but not very good.
This was a good game but it got boring after a while.Once you win it's boring and there's nothing else to do.I recommend this game for ages 6 to 12 because before the age of 6 it's too hard but after the age of 12 it's too easy.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hilarious fun for all ages
I got this game as a Christmas gift for my eight year old daughter. She loves the characters and the silly sound effects. The cars were pretty easy for her to control after she got the feel of it. She has played it over and over and never gets tired of it. It really is a fun game for her, and my husband. My four and a half year old niece visited, and she was even getting the hang of it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Love this Game!!!!!
I got this game for my 8-yr old daughter and she loves it! it is her favorite game.

5-0 out of 5 stars Cool Boarders 3
It's a great game, It's Alot more realistic than CB2.More tricks and outer limits.It's what snowboarding is all about.There is also alot of more things to it than in CB2.I mean more, companys and real snowboarders like in real life.I am a big fan of sports so I took this game with an awsome impression, I love this game and I suggest this game to any snowboarding fan.

4-0 out of 5 stars Off the 'great' mark, but still very good.
Graphics: 8/10 – Clear and pretty, with great mountain designs, cool characters and fantastic snowboards that are designed and used brilliantly.

Sound: 5/10 – Relaxing, swift and sweet snowboard sounds, but the boulders could have made more noise, the music could have been more exciting and the sound editing is ... .

Value: 7/10 – While this is fun and challenging with cheats to die for, there are simply much better Cool Boarders games.

Overall: 7/10 – This is not the greatest snowboarding game ever, but it is entertaining and nicely designed with good gameplay. I enjoyed playing it. It is better with 2 players and I recommend finding the cheats before playing.

5-0 out of 5 stars Awsome game !!!!!!!!!!
This game is so good !!!!! I don't even have to beat it I just have fun play with a friend. The coolest thing about this game are the tricks. Some of favourites are: Misty, Rodeo and salute. Get this game even if you don't snowboard ( comme moi, I ski ) If you don't you don't have a decent Library.

3-0 out of 5 stars Enough fun to last about 3 months
This is an Ok game, but it could be much better. There is only one skill level, and it is pretty easy.Tournament mode is sort of hard, the first time, but altogether, it is easy. I beat all the tournaments in 3 months, and then the game got boring. Graphics and sounds were pretty good, but if you want a game that has more than that, I would suggest a different game.

4-0 out of 5 stars A cool game
This game is pretty cool, but after a few days it got a little boring, even thow it is probaly the best snowboarding game ever. I think every thing is good except the tricks! I don't think their are anoth. Any way its a great game, if you like extreme sports games. If not, play it at your friends or rent it. ... Read more

1-0 out of 5 stars What's Up With This Doc?
This is (bottom line) the WORST basket ball game ever made. You can't have any playoffs or trade teams or anything that most basket ball games have to offer, basically because there's only 2 teams. 2! What is that? You can only play 2 on 2 or 3 on 3 which makes the replay value go down the drain. All you can do after a while is Bugs and Daffy vs. 2 of those demented aliens or whatever combination you happen to come up with. The teams are so unevenly matched, the Monstars are slow, have bad shooting, and are the [worst] ball players I've ever seen and suddenly Porky Pig is able to do a 360 degree slam dunk. In the movie, the Monstars dominated the game 99% of the time, but since this is aimed towards kids, the good side is the best. The animation is very subpar (2D on PSX?), the music is very badly done and it's over all just a boring, quickly thrown together game. I despise that spotlight hogging rabbit, Bugs almost as much as I do this game. Bugs and Space Jam for PSX down, Daffy Duck forever!

5-0 out of 5 stars If you wanna Jam, This is the game for you!
I've got this game and it rules, it's very similar to NBA JAM on the super nintendo. You know how it is, the monstars steal talent from the NBA players and vs the looney tunes in a basketball game.

You can play as either team, the monstars (which are not very good, and they can't do special dunks) or the tune squad (which are a lot better, and they do real cool dunks). In between each period you can play mini games, some are good and some are bad, but they're good to have for a little more fun and they can make you faster, stronger or better at rebounds which is even better. Besides that you can play the single player game there is another option called intergalactic tournament, where 2 players can vs each other. This is probably the best feature of the game, which is great fun. It is 2-dimensional but i think it is better like that. There is one last thing, you can do some real cool dunks with the toon squad.

Overall i give it 9 out of 10!

P.S the reason i gave it 9 and not 10 is because there should be more things to do, but it's still great!

4-0 out of 5 stars THIS GAME IS THE BOMB!!!
I highly recommend this game for anyone who likes to have fun.This is one of the best games I have ever played.The graphics are awsome and the price was very reasonable.I am so glad I bought this game.

P.S. You definitely won't regret buying this game. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Superb graphics and fast action characterize 989 Studios' daredevil motocross game Jet Moto 3. Designed for one or two players, this game expands on the original two Jet Moto games with improved visuals and controls.

After choosing from a selection of characters (each with varying strengths), you can traverse four different courses using a futuristic all-terrain cycle. The well-designed tracks will challenge even veterans of the earlier Jet Moto titles. You will feel the cycle slipping on the ice of the Khumbu Icefall and develop a lump in your stomach as you jump over Devil's Canyon. On the down side, close-up views are difficult to manage, as the field of vision can easily be lost. This is especially a problem in the two-player, split-screen view.

While some gamers may grow tired of this game fairly quickly, there is enough meat here to keep racing fans interested until the courses are mastered. Learning the subtleties of each course can prepare hard-core racers for the game's more advanced seasonal competitions and racing circuits. --Sal Barcia

Pros:

  • Superb graphics
  • Design improved over previous Jet Moto titles
Cons:
  • Close-up views are difficult to manage
  • Non-racing fans may grow bored quickly

5-0 out of 5 stars this game shows me what speed is toward my hands
this game is gooood its twice better than jet moto 1 or 2, (well im not sure of that because i forgot how jet moto 2 is.) alot as how ive seen in this webiste mentions that jet moto 2 is quite best than jet moto 1 and 3, but if you are someone that wants to have new jet motors,good features, outstanting, creative racetracks, than this is the game for you.
what was funny is that i taught this game was going to be a normal race game like any other.. like if i would start in a normal lowering speed as how you normally do when you speed up with a car. but, when i accelerate on this game.. you start speedin up already and goin out there crazy! this game is real wild. myself,i enjoy the game because it feels good going in a good high speed, even when your starting off from the beginning. in a few minutes when i played the game, i got used to the controlling. i find it easy but what is really fun is the way you can ride on something so fast while making a challenge with many other different racers on the game.
the game is interesting while hearing the great good quality music the game gives from each level. that is something that makes me like games.. thing is, the music expresses each level of the game. my favorite are from the khambu race track (the racetrack with the iceroads). as a matter of fact, i like all the songs. they are all great. makes me wanna turn my surround speakers and pump it up.
as how ive said, the game is good, its really good. this is a great experience to speed... especially on my own hands. if you try this game, make sure you get jet moto 2.

2-0 out of 5 stars Stick with JM 1&2
Go back NOW!JM3 is a marketing ploy.The first two Motos are great; the physics of the bikes are realistic.The third one, however, goes off of the deep end.Control of the bikes is jerky and the graphics aren't fluid.I bought JM3 because I had so much fun with the other two...... big mistake!This one should have been the first... a lot of kinks still needing to be worked out.The worst game in my collection.

4-0 out of 5 stars If it's action you want, you'll find it here
I guess I don't know where to begin. This game is really good. It's got its share of flaws but it's still fun. The good sides first. The gameplay has a really fast, fluent style and the grapples work much better than they did in the previous game. The novice courses aren't too hard, but they get harder. Catacombs seems like a pure nightmare at first. Then, the professional courses get even harder. The Machu Picchu course is out of control and almost every part of the terrain is extremely narrow. I won't tell you what happens after you beat Professional mode. Another fun thing is the stunt courses you get when beating certain levels of the game like the deformed Circus Park you get for beating Semi-pro mode. The graphics aren't the greatest in the world, but they do. But the thing is, if you don't have a memory card, you'll get pretty sick of the game because you need to save your progress on a memory card, or you'll be playing Novice courses the whole time which isn't much fun. Also, some of the courses are extremely hard to figure out like they don't have a set path. Courses like Shipwreck Cove, Volcano Island, and Machu Picchu can be very hard to understand at first because the levels are too open. Besides that, it's a blast. Buy it but get a memory card too.

1-0 out of 5 stars This one has run out of gas...
Jet Moto 3 unfortunately comes up short in comparison to the first two games.The control is kinda iffy, the graphics aren't really that great, and the two player mode is unbearable.Do yourself a favor and go afterthe first two instead, they're much better constructed than this one.

3-0 out of 5 stars One more thought on JM3
My first post "Jet Moto 1 and 2 were great, but JM3 fell a little short"(or at least I remember calling it something like that) says it all.Well, it actually says *most* of it.I just thought I should add something very key:this game can be very frustrating.It's hard tomaster- especially if you're used to the first 2 Jet Motos.Once you learnit, this game can be very amusing; although the crash detection will mostlikely always be annoying.

I also noticed that, just like with the first2 JMs, two player mode really is awful.No matter which way the screen issplit, you practically have tunnel vision and is can be very dizzying(andimpossible).Well, just a thought. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Pedal power meets polygons in this no-holds-barred cyclingexperience. Not just another racing game, this title successfullycaptures the essence and devil-may-care style of competition mountainbike racing.

The menu screens feature clanging guitars and jolting graphics that putyou in the mood for adrenaline-rushing action. Once you hit the slope,you'll immediately encounter high-speed rough-and-tumble racingfeaturing huge jumps and varied terrain. From riverbeds to steep cityroads, No Fear Downhill Mountain Bike Racing is filled withchallenging race environments. While the graphics aren't as crisp asthey could be, the speed is certainly here, and when players switch toa behind-the-handlebars viewpoint they'll know what it's like to treadthe thin line between fear and control.

Six riders are available, each flaunting personality and differentstrengths. Upgrades such as lighter frames or better tires are awardedafter beating three separate opponents on each track.

A strength meter decreases after holding the pedal button down for longperiods of time. Players will learn to let the bike coast on downhillsegments, supplying the riders with bursts of strength for pedaling onflat or uphill segments. This strategy, mixed with the visceral thrillof racing, makes No Fear Downhill Mountain Bike Racing anexhilarating experience. --Jeff Young

Pros:

  • Cool riders, each sporting the latest outfits and bikes
  • Precise control
  • Variety of levels keeps the gameplay fresh

Cons:

  • Blurry graphics can make distinguishing terrain changes difficult

5-0 out of 5 stars A game that makes you a better biker... HOW CAN THIS BE?!?
This game is allot of fun. As a Dual Slalom rider/BMX cruiser rider as well as a PSX enthusiast i can say that this game is really chanllenging. Infact I have never cleared all of the courses to make it to the 3rd and final elite mode for the trails and courses... this is extreemly technical and will make you a better downhill 'thinker' if that makes sense... one downside to this game is that the trick function is next to impossible to master... as far as i know there is no game guide or cheatcodes available for this game making it even more of a challenge...

5-0 out of 5 stars Not a bad game:
The only thing I didn't like about this game was the graphics. The controls are easy.The competition is hard which makes it fun. Youn will like it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Endlessly Adicted
I purchased this game....When it arrived i opened it up right away and started playing. Its awsome everythings very realistic, the wreaks, the sound, the graphics, the gameplay. If you are into extreme sports this is the buy for you, and it has great replay value, so you'll never get tired of it! This is a Great Buy!

4-0 out of 5 stars Hey! This game doesn't stink!
A surprisingly good game. My wife even likes it! As a cyclist i was surprised by the high level of realism in the game.A player can actually exert subtle physical control over the bike- such as standing whilehammering the pedals, sitting back for improved braking and increased"endurance"- and have the expected result. All in all a goodgame.

5-0 out of 5 stars very very fun!

Amazon.com Review

The Madden series is by far the most popular NFL console-gamefranchise in North America. It is the game of choice among many active andformer NFL players, and has been a mainstay on most gaming platforms for close toa decade. And this year's version for the PlayStation, Madden NFL 2001,is amazing--it's even better than the incredible Nintendo 64 version of the samename.

In terms of playability, EA Sports has added some nice new features. Players arerewarded with collectable in-game Madden Cards by performing certain tasks,which can be used to unlock secret game codes, players, stadiums, and legendaryNFL teams. Also, you can trade those cards with friends using the PlayStationmemory card. Enhancing the replayability of Madden NFL 2001 is a newtwo-minute drill feature that allows up to 10 players to compete for the highestscore.

The game does have a couple of trouble areas. The CPU play isn't all thatsynched with the gameplay, resulting in some very strange calls and plays. JohnMadden's commentary is stocked with only a few phrases, which are used adnauseam. While not perfect, the sound effects and crowd noises are stillpreferable to the whiny blips of the N64 version. --Todd Mowatt

Pros:

  • Collectable Madden Cards can be used to unlock secret game codes, players,stadiums, and teams
  • New two-minute drill feature
Cons:
  • CPU sometimes makes very strange calls and plays
  • Repetitive Madden phrases

It's ok but way too hard too figure out all of the details without the book.

4-0 out of 5 stars Mad About Madden!
Madden NFL 2001 is an excellent football game.If you like football, and you like playing it as a video game, you'll love the best game in the league.The gameplay is better than its competitor, 989 Sports, and I feel I can get into the game more.No cheerleader pictures, like on NFL GameDay, so you can stick to football.The different modes (Practice, 2-Minute Drill, etc) and Madden Cards (reward system for completing various tasks) help make this game a powerhouse.You won't be disappointed with Madden.

4-0 out of 5 stars Touchdown !
This game is the bomb! It has great plays, great graphics, and my favorite team (miami dolphins) is one of the best.The bad thing about this game is every once and a while it freezes. Than after a minute it comes back. But overall, this is a cool game.

5-0 out of 5 stars one of the best games ive played
the game is great.the graphics arent that good but the good gameplay makes up for it.my favorite features are create a play,create a team and,Franchise mode.a hint in frachise mode is in the pre season chose the super bowl champs,runner up in the supper bowl,and chose the 3 divsion champs from the afc,or nfc so your rookie players gain experinceeven if the lose.any way this is a great game

2-0 out of 5 stars MAJOR GLITCH RUINS BEST FOOTBALL GAME EVER PLAYED
FIRST OFF , I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT 90% OF THIS GAME IS EXCELLENT... NOW FOR THE OTHER 10%; THIS GAME HAS A VERY!!!! ANNOYING HABIT OF FREEZING UP WHILE PLAYING. I DONT MEAN "HERE AND THERE"; IT'S RATHER CONSISTANT..... LIKE EVERY 4TH QTR YOU'RE IN THE LEAD AND WHEN YOUR CPU OPPONENT SNAPS THE BALL THE QB HANGS ON TO THE BALL (WITHOUT SNAPPING) AND YOUR PLAYERS GO AFTER THE STATIONARY QB TO NO AVAIL... AT THIS POINT YOU CAN DO NOTHING TO "JAR" THE CPU TO CONTINUE... GAME OVER. YOU MUST QUIT IF YOU WANT TO PLAY ANYMORE(WHICH YOU WONT AFTER THIS HAPPENS 6 OR 7 TIMES ESPECIALLY IF YOURE PLAYING SEASON ). THE REAL EXCELLENCE OF THIS GAME WEARS OFF (UNFORTUNATELY) BECAUSE OF THESE "FREEZES"IN SHORT ,I WOULD REALLY LOVE THIS GAME IF IT DIDNT SCREW UP ALL THE TIME .... REALLY!!!!!!TOTAL BUMMER. ...

Editorial Review

As retro gaming continues to increase in popularity, many classic arcade games are getting a modern-day facelift. The latest 2-D coin-op classic to enter the 3-D era is Atari's Centipede, which now allows you to wander through a wide-ranging environment filled with cantankerous centipedes, sneaky spiders, and other deadly enemies.

Gameplay varies considerably from the original game. While your goal is to still to shoot and survive, there are now six worlds and 30 levels to conquer. Retro gaming purists may scoff at the colorful new environments, which have replaced the generic black background of the original game. However, the 3-D game design now allows for dangerous enemies to creep up from any angle (which they often do). Fortunately, the controls have also been updated to allow you to strategically jump over approaching enemies. --Brett Atwood

Pros:

  • Impressive 3-D update to classic arcade favorite
  • Multiplayer support (up to 4 players)
Cons:
  • Controls may confuse some players

1-0 out of 5 stars The Greatest Disappointment of all Time
The old classic arcade game Centipede; truly one of the greatest games in video game history. When I heard of the Playstation title coming, I immediatley had to buy a copy of it. As soon as I got my hands on it, for a very low price, it was the first thing I did when I got home, only to play the greatest disappointment I have ever seen.

As my eyes met the screen, I viewed the most boring ... color-textures I have ever seen in a video game. A dorky little 7 year old, with way too large glasses and freaky haircut, who was the chosen one to rid the world of the centipedes. Not much of a storyline; it was more amusing to play Centipede without a story in the arcade. And like I said, the graphics were terrible. All was blocky, untextured and really showed proof that it was carelessly animated by a group of amateurs.

Getting past the horrible graphics and boring storyline, lets move on to the term they call 'sound' in the game. It has to be a cold day in hell when squeaky, toneless, flarvorless bits of crunchy tunes and smushed talking has to be looked at as sound. Besides the crunched up sound, the boring gameplay consists of rescuing tiny pipsqueaks and 'protecting' their houses from the jumping spiders (which also look and sound incredibly [weak]). Parts of the game also consist of driving around aimlessly, so do yourself and your money a favor...don't waste a penny on this game.

5-0 out of 5 stars oldtime fun
excitement, adventure and skills.Anticipation of what is going to happen next. The graphics are extrodinary. Fast pace.

2-0 out of 5 stars Only the classic version is worth playing, all else bad!
Highly disappointing! The two player mode is not simultaneous, so you have to take turns playing, and the two player mode only works in the classic version, not in the newer looking "3-D" version that is only aone player game! What a rip-off!

The only saving grace is that this hasa decent version of the classic Centipede arcade version from the early1980's. This is still very primitive video game fun, if you liked playingit back then.

If you buy this, understand that only the classic versionwill be any fun. The new version is very sluggish and low-tech looking fora 3-D game.

3-0 out of 5 stars Centipede gets a 32-bit facelift
There is no doubt that the original Centipede is one of the most insanely addictive arcade games ever designed. The Playstation release of Centipede includes the classic game plus a newly updated 3D version. The new versionof the game is interesting, allowing you to move anywhere on the playfieldas you blast away at centipedes and mushrooms. Although I love the classicgame, the new version just didn't hold my interest for very long. Havingsaid that, because of the simple objectives involved, I do think this gamemight be enjoyed by younger and more casual game players. Incidentally, theclassic version of Centipede in this package plays brilliantly with theDual Shock controller. All in all, a good but not great effort.

5-0 out of 5 stars quick draw
challenging, fast paced game remake of the origional.Suprising, twists and turns of the bugs that you battle.The only drawback is that you can't save progress after every sub level. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A great game!
My 4-year-old brother, mom, and I all love to play this game. My brother likes it because it's pretty simple and you get to destroy (drill through) stuff. I like it because it's a challenge, but not too challenging, and very fun to do and see. My mom likes it because it's cute, basicly.

We also named some of the different kinds of blocks you see in the game- for instance, melted jellybean, ice cream (or whipped cream), sick (or icky), and ice cube.

If you like this game, you'll also love Spin Jam. We bought these two games at the same time, having rented them many times before. I was so happy to find them on the internet!

4-0 out of 5 stars Drill me another, please!
Wow, who could have thought that something as simple and cute as this game is sooooo addictive. You must drill down, trying to escape falling blocks as they fall 'Tetris' style whilst trying to keep your oxygen levels up at the same time. The graphics are great for this simple game, the background music enhances the fun. Does get harder the deeper you dig. RECOMMENDED FOR ALL AGES!

1-0 out of 5 stars Mr. Driller has no positive aspect whatsoever
I'll put it simple, it's the worst game on the face of the earth.It's also a waste of money.

3-0 out of 5 stars Yeah, it's addictive....
...but lacks something that other great puzzle games have:In most addictive puzzle games, you keep finding new ways to improve your game (i.e., "Oh!I didn't know you could slide a piece in sideways!").Once you play for an hour or so, you probably will have figured out all the tricks.It's fun, alright, but not where-did-the-time-go fun.

The game goes like this:You start out at the top of an endless supply of multi-colored bricks--kinda like standing at the top of a filled Tetris screen.Your objective is to drill down as far as possible without getting crushed by the falling bricks above you.Your drill destroys one brick at a time (either below, to the right, to the left, or above you).If there are unsupported bricks above the one you destroyed, those will fall.Bricks of the same color, in goups of four or more, will evaporate, and unsupported bricks above those will fall.This is what can result in some satisfying, or fatal, chain reactions.All of this is complicated by the fact that you have to keep finding air capsules to breath as you descend....if you run out of air, you are dead.

A critical shortcoming is the lack of a two-player option.A competitive version would have added to the value of this game.Perhaps they are saving that for the sequel.For great puzzle gameplay with a higher addiction level, I recommend Geom Cube and the Bust-A-Move puzzle games (both of which have great 2-player options).If you already have these, then Mr. Driller isn't a bad choice at all.

5-0 out of 5 stars Easy to learn - addictive gameplay
A very simple game with very easy controls yet addictive.There are several different gameplays (timed, arcade, survival) and each with theirown goals.You basically attempt to take Mr. Driller down as many levelsas you can in the meantime avoiding falling blocks and picking up aircapsuls.There isn't a whole lot of strategy involved although as you movealong you learn how the blocks react to your actions.Except for the Timedmode - its not about speed but strategy - of course I spent most of my timejust moving as quickly as I could and laughing at the consequences.

3-0 out of 5 stars My 6 year old and I love this game
Well, it's got all the flaws the other reviewers mention.
BUT, it's been very fun for my 5 year old and I to play...it's really nonviolent, as when Croc stomps the Dantinis their eyes still blink like they don't understand what happened. It's also got a lot of little puzzles, so it's not this frenetic crazy action game. And the music is nice too.

So despite all the flaws, we really like this game a lot and have looked for a Croc 3 to show up. It's cute and charming and that's what I want with a small child.

1-0 out of 5 stars OMG I have never played a worse game in my LIFE!!!
i CAN'T UNDERSTAND AT ALL WHY 1 PERSOM WOULD ENJOY THIS GAME.

The basic dialouge in this gams is nothing. The creaters decided rather than taking some effort in finding voice actors. They have words flash on the bottom of the screen. HOW DO CHILDREN WHO HAVE DIFFICULTY READING AT A SPEED OF 4 WORDS PER SECOND PLAY THIS?? Croc's movement is extremely unforgiving to a slightly short or off balance jump. The camera is so screwed you will probably smash your playstation in two.

Overall description: WTF!?

4-0 out of 5 stars Recomended for 9 - 12year olds
Don't buy this for very young ones because it will be too hard for them. When Croc runs it's very sencitive so when you tap left Croc will do a full turn. You will die because health is limited but you will get used to this if you're truely talented at games. My first game was Crash Bandicoot 1(back in 97/98)and on my first go I could control the character with ease and I beat my friends at games when they had a Playstation for 2 years. My point is if you've a son/daughter and they've got a simular story and they're talented at games then get this after Croc 1 and I know adults will enjoy this as well.

I don't think Croc 3 wasn't released because Croc 2 was rubbish.

If you like this checkout Crash Bandicoot 1/2/3.
Tenchu 1(this isn't for kids).

1-0 out of 5 stars CROC 2 FAN WARNING
Straight up, this is a sub-standard 3-D environment game, lacking originality and fun, looking to catch the little kids with its high cute factor. If you want an action game, this isn't the place to look. This game is my worst PlayStation game EVER!

Amazon.com Review

A rudimentary 2-D fighting game loosely based on several of theGundam Japanese animated series and movies, Gundam Battle Assault isn't the game that fans would have hoped for, and is definitely notfor casual gamers who don't know what the heck a Gundam is. The game'sone-on-one combat is between giant robots known as "mobile suits." They can fly up intothe air--the screen scrolls vertically to follow the action, providing a littleextra headroom in the cramped 2-D arenas--but there's really nothing about thegameplay here that you haven't seen before and played ad nauseam.

Originally released in Japan in 1998, Gundam Battle Assault definitelyreeks a bit upon its stateside arrival two years later. While the graphics andsound are certainly colorful and mostly faithful to the animated shows, they areunremarkable at best, and, compared to more recent games in the fighting genre,this title is about as bare bones as they come in terms of features, options,and extras. Only two modes of play are available: the requisite two-playerversus mode, and a one-player story mode that follows a poorly scripted plotsure to confound Gundam saga newbies and irritate veteran fans with itsillogical absurdity. --Joe Hon

Pros:

  • Features characters and mobile suits from the various Gundam cartoons
Cons:
  • Uninspired gameplay
  • Unremarkable graphics and sound
  • Minimal game features, options, and extras
  • Story mode's poorly scripted plot will either confound or irritate fans

3-0 out of 5 stars Not the best; not the worst.
This game has the Mobile Suits of the gundam series, but it just isn't up to my standards.The graphics, concerning gundams, are good.All the gundams and other mobile suits look good.If I hadn't bought this game already I would just get the second one because it is much better.The second one has many of the same characters, but it has a better story mode.I think this gundam game is just for the gundam collectors.I would compare it to DBZ Ultimate Battle 22: the best quality is the detailed drawings of the characters.

4-0 out of 5 stars Nonsense and a half
The plot will make any Gundam fan seethe, Hiiro Yui is a slimeball, and I get very angry when he takes the controls of the Zeta.The plot is utter nonsense, as it seems that since the story takes place in A.C 19X, that there was some large dimensional shift, dumping characters from Universal Century 0079 to 0093 on said Slimeball's doorstep.As it's been said in every review, Hiiro is of course, not an original character to this game.The dialogue is absolutely atrocious, as respected characters surrender to "The Perfect Soldier".It seems it was written by a person who had never seen any of the Gundam series, and had no idea of who these characters are.Sometimes I feel so guilty about people like Char or Hamarn losing to Hiiro that I just lose on purpose.No, I really mean it.I especially like Camille's ending speech.That's Camille Vidan, The Strongest Newtype Ever.Well, play it for yourself and find out.
Well, how does it play?
It's an average fighter game.The number of moves are highly lacking, and not especially original.The screen's are a bit on the small side, for a mobile suit battle.The suits can fly around, but not for very long, which is, well, silly.The beam saber attack takes way too long to charge up, and it's weak.Again, that's silly.It would be nice to be able to set a match length, as the fights are one match bouts.
On the other hand, the animation is quite well done.The movements of the mobile suits are true to the show.You know how the beam saber is stored in the Qubeley?It's the same in the game.
Contrary to a previous review, this game has a lot of replay potential.There are some fun characters to unlock.
And another thing.The Mobile Armors are tiny.They are very tiny in this game.I mean, they're big, I suppose, but not at all to scale.They are tiny.
This game has fun to it, but it sure put me off Bandai's localization work for a while.

1-0 out of 5 stars A fairly bad try
I was excited when I saw this game, and for about 10 minutes was really pleased.But as I got further into to it, I found the game slow and boring.What really angered me is that you can only be Heero in story mode.There are other important pilots in the Gundam series like say - oh I don't know - Amaro Ray?Ever heard of him game?Apparently the first New Type wasn't good enough to be featured in the story version of this game.Another problem was that the playing fields are way to small, but I give major props for getting the scale of the characters in relation to one another correct and the overall variety of characters to choose from.The only other good point about this game is the graphics are quite nice.But it's lack of replay value (something important in all fighting games) and paucity of any real challenge is quite a let down from an anime series that should not be too hard from which to make a great game.Though I hear the sequel to this game is much better, I don't see how it could be any worse.

I bought this game about 6 months ago, but it was recently that I got into the game. Great detaled 2D game play and a Great group of Mobile suits Like Hy-gogg, Sazabi, and the Z Gundams. And if I missed your Favorite Mobile Suit i'm sorry. There isn't a very good story to the game,the game play is slightly unusual, and theres not that much strategy when it comes down to the mobil suit itself not till you figure out there weakness then theres strategy. But then if you are wondering wy I gave this game 4 stars (it's really 4 1/2 Stars)? It just comes down to just plain kicking each others [rears]. So thats My Review you be shure to read other reviews from me and other Critics.

5-0 out of 5 stars Gundam fanatic!
If you like Gundam 0079, 0080, 0083, and Gundam Wing
you will "LOVE" this game. My favorite mobile suie is
Sazabi and if you want all the characters you have to
get the Game Shark so you can get characters like Hydra
and Psycho. I only got this game a few days ago and I
can't stop playing. So if your a big Gundam fan like me
I definitely think you should buy it. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Room for improvement
This series has the best batter-pitcher interface, and graphics, but that's about all.The defense and base-running are terrible!It's pretty easy to use a conservative swing and go the other way, but the way the ball reacts after being hit is not good.These guys should team up with High Heat Baseball and make a game together.High Heat has a similar interface for the pitcher and batter, but playing against the computer is no fun.I've been playing baseball games since the original RBI, which is still the best American released baseball game ever.I've owned and played at least 25 different bsaeball games.I own a Japanese game called World Stadium 4, which is by far the best I've played.The graphics are cartoon like, but the gameplay is awesome.If the American makers want to improve their games rather than just adding new rosters, the should check out the World Stadium series which I think evolved from RBI baseball.

4-0 out of 5 stars Pretty good game, but still kinda sucks.
The best part is that you can "earn" legends such as Babe Ruth, Gehrig, Aaron, Mays, Satchel Paige, Cy Young, etc. Other than that, there isn't anything special. HEY ELECTRONIC ARTS, HOW ABOUT SOME "ALL TIME" TEAMS?

4-0 out of 5 stars Better Than Playstation 2 Triple Play
I bought Triple Play Baseball for the PS2 and it was so bad that I sold it and bought Triple Play 2001 for PS.It's better in just about every way (except for stadium graphics).

5-0 out of 5 stars Greatest game ever!
This is one of the best sports games available.It is up to date with all the players, has great graphics, and is really fun.The announcers know everything that happens.You get cool rewards like fast players, strong arm, invisibility , and a lot more.Plus you get to play with all the legendary players like Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, and lots more.Overall this game is really good.

5-0 out of 5 stars Triple Play 2001
EA SPORTS has created a wonderful game here.The wonderful graphics and smooth gamplay truly make it a great buy.From the minute you put the vibrant disc into your Playstation Console you know you are going to be hooked.The game starts out with a cool movie which the graphics will blow your mind.Then after the movie, you will be taken to the Triple Play 2001 main menu.This were you pick what type of game you would like to play.You can play a Single Game, Season, Playoffs, Big League Challenge, or Home Run Legends.Each of them equally fun.You will see when you enter a game mode that the game is pretty tough, but you'll get used to it.You will also find out that there are controls for basically everything you would want to do during a regular baseball game.You can choose between all types of choices, including stadium choices, camera angles and many more.This game is most definitely well worth buying, and I hope you have just as much fun playing it as I do. ...

1-0 out of 5 stars bass???? or marlin??????
What the heck is this game about, you fish for bass in a lake and then you fish for marlin to, But to catch a marlin you catch it on a piece of bread................ nOW YOU TELL ME, DO YOU WANT TO BUY THIS GAME?????????????????

4-0 out of 5 stars Good Fishing
I haven't played This game.. but have played then separately... I Loved Blue Marlin, it was a blast from the start..and Balck bass is harder,,but if you are a fisherman and apply the right techniques... well u WILL be rewarded!!

1-0 out of 5 stars Not to Happy
This game has been a joke from the start. For starters it came out about a year late and I bought it as soon as it came out and have yet to catch a bass in the free fishing mode or tournament mode.I do like the marlinfishing part of the game but I think that is because I can't catch any fishin the bass fishing part of the game.This was a very disapointing purchaseon my part because I enjoyed their other games very much.

5-0 out of 5 stars Realistic Fishing Game - The best fishing game yet
The new Black Bass game is great!The lakes are realistic and the detail is incredible. Just like real fishing.Finding the fish, casting and reeling is just like being on the water.This game is a keeper!

1-0 out of 5 stars You Couldn't Trade This Game For ASack Of Manure!
Please,absolutely do not get this game.It is nearly impossible to catch a fish and/or land a fish. The folks at HotB have thrown a major dud out there on the market with this game.I would rate this as less than 1 star but the rating system doesn't go that low...

You will definatelyhave more luck today if you would actually go fishing because, at leastthat way, you at least have a chance at catching a fish. ... Read more
