Slow to fast in a heartbeat..
There's been a lot both good and bad said about this game. When I first popped it in, this thing was slow. I said "how is this such a good game if it's slow"? Well, my question was answered. Win some races and the game gradually gets faster and faster and faster, and, well, faster. With all the mayhem going on around you slowing down isn't much of an option. Once you combine the speed with all the other special weapons available this is where the game starts to shine. When your palm starts to sweat. When you realize just how fast your heart can beat. Think that's an excessive description? You won't think so once you get a hold of this adrenaline rush!

don't understand
I just don't get the appeal of this game.The game is horrible.The music is okay and the graphics are nice, but the racing part has a big problem.Shooting other cars is fun, but the fact that, as you are driving fast, you constantly keep hitting the side of the track... and that forces you to come to a complete stop.Too many sharp turns making it difficult to build up speed.Right when I think I'm driving fast, I hit a turn and my car stops right there.

Buy if you want a slap of crap.

Wipeout Reloaded
I consider the original Wipeout for Sony Playstation to be the finest fururitic racer ever (yes, I like it better than any incarnation of F-Zero). From the gorgeous visuals and multiple lighting scenes for every level (Vemom and Rapter Classes), to the awesome, awesome, AWESOME soundtrack (my favorite soundtrack of any racing ever), Wipeout was perfect. But many people don't agree with me. They prefer Wipeout's sequel, Wipeout XL. It's easy to see why.

Wipeout XL takes what everyone loved about the original and upped it a notch. The graphics are higher Resolution, the music is more upbeat, the weapons are more lethal. But perhaps the greatest reason to play it is that it's REALY FAST. There is simply no experience on earth like playing Wipeout XL on Phantom Class (the fastest class) with the hidden class of ship (unforetunately it loses weapons in exchange for maxed-out stats).

When you play this game in this configuration, it truly is sublime. Weapons are fired at you, but you outrun them. You're bouncing off the wall like crazy, but going so fast it feels like you've got the speed burst weapon on continuous fire. It's easy to see what makes this game so great. It's a great concept executed flawlessly. You have great art direction, great controls, great gameplay, and great music. At a pace so fast it should carry a warning label.

If you love racing games, and especially if you love Wipeout, you'll HAVE to buy this game.

Not the best Wipeout available
I can't play this game after playing Wipeout 3 - the latter blows the doors off of it.Don't get me wrong, Wipeout XL is a good game, but compared to Wipeout 3 the graphics are muddy and kind of ugly and I hate all the in-game corporate advertising (which is all over the game).Save your money and buy Wipeout 3.

The best video game ever made
Computer games have come a long way since Atari, and WipeoutXL proves it. Conceptually, this is the coolest, most creative game I've ever seen. The whole "anti-gravity" racing scenario is the greatest idea I've seen for a game in a long time. The graphics are great, and the game itself is sheer FUN. The soundtrack is full of great electronic tunes...very fitting. This is the only video game I've ever played that actually put chills up my spine. If it does that, then it must be good. ...

tough fishing
the only problem i have with this game is setting the hook it doesn't always show the arrows

ok saltwater only game
Bad graphics, great sound, nice underwater graphics, good sound, mind-boggling variety. An OK SALTWATER FISHING game (no Largemouth here but 1000 + pound Marlins are around!).Bottom-line_an ok choice to add to your fishing collection f ya like big/saltwater fish.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME
This is a horrible game, I mean it is just down right stupid.The fish are a real pain to catch and the line always snaps on the weakest fish when you are fishing.On top of that the game has the WORST music I have ever heard.The controls are odd and the graphics STINK.The worst part is trying to pick out the right bait to use.The are over 30 kind of bait and only one kind works for each fish.So the whole time you are trying to pick the right bait when the timer is going down.To get new levels you need to beat challenges which are impossible.You get WAY to little time catch a lot of really rare fish.DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY BUY A BETTER GAME. !GOOD TIMES!

Instant love
This is an exalent fishing game. I "caught" on really fast. A tip for the first timers, look for the yellow arrows and press them with the d-pad when reeling the fish in. If you are can't figure out how to set the hook, check the fish info (It also tells you where to find them, with temp and depth. That is also shown on your radar.). Anyways this is an suberb fishing games for game freaks (like me) or real fisherman (also like me).

Awesome
this game is a very fun and challenging game it has pretty good graphics I thought it would be just another fishing game with square lakes and box fish but i was wrong it is awesome. ... Read more

Looking For Scrabble...
I used to have this game and it's helped me improve my vocabulary.I see some people don't like it because of Maven.I enjoy it alot because I can play someone without anyone actually being there at one level or another.I also enjoy it because I can compete with friends or family.It's a wonderful family game.

excellent game, horrible music
the way maven plays in the earlier levels is unrealistic. he'll somtimes spell the funky words with bad placement as if having the vocab to win but not the skill.

Want my money back

This is the worst Scrabble version I've ever played
I bought this version of Scrabble for my PlayStation2 thinking it would be at least half as good as the one I own for the PC. Boy was I surprised. This is the worst version of Scrabble I've ever played. First of all, you cannot see the whole scrabble board. Also, the controls are very awkward and not well thought out. There is a zoom in view, a zoom out view, and a zoom out with scrolling view where you can't press many of the buttons. The zoom in is HUGE and useless, the zoom out modes are too close so that you can never see the whole Scrabble board at once! You are forced to scroll the screen to see only portions of the board at a time. Both me and my wife were extremely disappointed by this version of Scrabble. BEWARE, unlike the PC version which is a 5 star version, this version barely gets one star. Unlike the PC version the music isn't very good and you can't change the music, you can never see the whole board when playing, you can't change the type of board you play on, you can't change the view angle, you can't change the background, the tiles look flat and ugly, your tiles on your rack are so HUGE that they block the view of the board extensively. The score (when visible) takes up too much of the screen, and of course makes it difficult to see the board. Fortunately you can turn off the score view. This is a very sad implementation of what is a great game. I don't recommend buying the PlayStation version at all. If you own a PC you are much better off getting the PC version. The PC version is 100 times better than this version is. Hasbro is normally a very good quality company. I'm surprised Hasbro allowed this version to hit the market place.

No more lost tiles!
I really did like this way to play Scrabble.You can play against "Maven" (the AI) which has levels from novice to grand master, you can play against up to 3 humans or you can play solitare.There isalso an option for tournaments which sounds interesting.Rules can beadjusted and scoring is all taken care of. The only negative is themusic-very annoying. It's a good thing you can tone it down. ... Read more

Incredible Pin Action!
I've been playing video bowling games ever since Bowling came out for the Atari 2600. Never have I seen a game that has more realistic pin action than Brunswick Circuit Pro Bowlingby THQ for the Playstation. I'm a bowling fanatic so I'm a hard judge on bowling games. The pin action will leave you in awe. I've played hundreds, perhaps thousands, of games, and still see new pin action at times depending on the bowler, ball, and lane that I use. I never tire of playing this game. I only hope that THQ brings an updated version of this to the Playstation 2! ... Read more

Awesome Game!
Wheel of Fortune 2 is a great game! The graphics are incredible, and you really feel like you're in the game! There are 4 versions. You can play solo, tournament, against 2 computer players, or with a 2nd human player. I really enjoyed this game! I absolutely love it! I strongly recommend you purchase it! A wonderful game from beginning to end!

So-So
Any new version Of Wheel Of Fortune is a vast improvement over the old PC and NES versions... As for this version--->If you can find the First Hasbro version get it... For A 2nd edition WOF is ok to play, but the graphics are kinda lame.The new themed backgrounds are cool, it doesnt help the game play, which is slow.I just wished they would have stuck with the nice layout of the First PSX version and improved it, this seems like a new attempt at this game.Definatly get this if you have gone thru every puzzle in the first version, or if you want to get it before it is gone.If this is your first WOF, find the original edition... I think that was more than my 2 cents worth! ... Read more

One of the best ever

This and War Craft II (both for PS1) are the only games I still play after 7 years.None others compare.That includes PS2 games such as GTA III-V.Nothing beats a simplified strategy game.The key to enjoying PG is to play the campaign and get your core troops up in levels and equipment.If you haven't done this, the game will not show it's true appeal.

If You love strategy, this is the game!
Simply unsurpassed by later versions more dedicated to tactic levels, PG let you mastered the great strategy in WWII commanding not only batallions but entire groups of armies through some of the toughest and most famous clashes, equipped with the most sophisticated and letal weaponry available.

Core Unit Maximization
The proper ratio of 5-star units, followed by a pre-planned campaign path, seems a science. If one is not going for total victory, by Moscow '43 a mix of 8 FW109A's, 8 JU 87d's, 8 Tiger I's, 7 pioneer infantry, 4 High Level Bombers, 3 8.8 AT guns (for later transferal to Jagdpanther form), and 6 SIG II's (or is it SIG 38T's by then?) is a ratio that seems formidable. Creating the most powerful mix of core units is a form of entertainment unto itself. The key is purchasing fighters during Warsaw and Norway onward, along with tactical bombers, until one eventually winds up with 8 Fw109D's(or jets), 8 FW10916's (converted Stukas), 4 Hell177A High Level Bombers, 5 Tiger I's, 3 Tiger II's, 2 Panther D's, 2 Jagdpanthers, 1 Jagdtiger, 5 SIG 38(t), and 8 Pioneer Infantry. Such a 5-star force can do historically impossible things, but a 16-plane enforced air superiority is vital. As for claims of historical innaccuracy, the Sea Lion strategy accurately reflects OKW's captured war-plan, and the general strategies are still used today. 1) establish air superiority 2)bypass heavily populated areas, encircling an enemy with tank divisions followed by infantry 3) tacticaly bomb an enemy after establish air superiority to support ground troops 4)keep all forces mobile, at least in transport from site to site, to maintain a secure line of logistics. -credentials: B.A. History, Towson, & U.S. Navy vet

I realize this game is old...
But haven't ya'll heard of an uldn' but a goodn'?

The Panzer General Series is truly an incredible step forward in turn based strategy.Not as simple as such games as Heroes of Might and Magic 3 but much more simple than The Battle of Kursk.In this middle nitche, players get to feel like they are running an army but they don't get saddled with the 3 to 1 logistic system.

And, as quaint as Panzer General may seem, it is a very deep game.Even Panzer General 2 avoided have the polethera of units and tactics as are in 1.You will be able to use navies, strategic bombers and just about anything else one might expect to see on the WWII battlefield.Play is challenging and rarely stale.Getting the coveted Decisive Victory is never too easy but it remains attainable and rewarding.The prestige system is also useful, giving players points for taking cities, eradicating units and so on.But...Most importantly, your army carries over from level to level, meanng that the game can be played several times with different units and the outcome will be different(there are also branches based on the speed of victory).Trust me, this game is timeless and endless.

one of the best games ever
ythis game makes you use your head and it makes it fun. Their are many paths to victory and it is cool to be able to fight your way through DC but remember to beef up your air force because America won't hold back their jets justs because you only have stukas (big mistake on my part) ... Read more

Your Answer to Your Need For SPEED!
Being an Avid CART fan I found this game to be one of the most realistic on the market.The graphics and controls are almost life-like.You actually do get the feeling that you are out on the track with the world's BEST drivers.The choice of being able to drive the cars in arcade or simulation mode is a great property of this game. I seriously recommend this game for anyone who likes a fast paced racing game that will challenge all your abilities. If you're looking for speed look no further. Now go buy this game and try to take home the PPG Cup. Good Luck, and try not to be swallowed by the Wall of Voo-Doo!

The BEST Indy Car Racing Game YET!
I am a serious gamer and if you like action packed non stop racing this is it. The graphics are excellent and the music along with the great sounds will keep you on the edge of your seat for hours! Once you have beat the game you will open secret tracks witch are totally cool! Take my word for it this game is well worth the [price] so go buy it NOW! ... Read more

I need this game
I have always wanted to own the lion king game for my playstation and now i finally get the chance to own one and i cant wait until i actually get it but i have played it a few times on a different system but i have always loved the lion king and have also always wanted to get everything i could from the lion king. I hope i can get it so i can really tell yall what i think about it.
thank u so much, alaina

The BOMB!
I think this game is THE BOMB! I read some of the online reviews and he wanted to write my own.The game gets harder as the levels change. I have made it to the puzzle game. I loved the movie and now the game is one of my favorites.I play this game all the time and would recommend it!

Interesting...unique character design, but fuzzy plot.
The plot was a little uneven, as it hardly tied into the real movies. However, most of the scenes were fun, nonstop action with cool effects. :D I would reccomend this product to anyone who loves Lion King, video games, and action adventures.

KIDS LOVE THIS GAME
ALL FOUR OF MY KIDS LOVE THIS GAME VERY GREAT PRICE THAT I AM BUYING A SECOND ONE. ITS FREE SHPPING THANKS

Step down Scar!
When I got it I played it and finished in in two hours.
The levels are really fun, the mini games are exiting,
the movie clips make it even better.
But what disopointed me was the levels are short, and most
them are very easy,(once you get the hang of it).
But then again, there are some very chalanging levels too.
If you love the Lion King as much as I do you will really enjoy this game! ... Read more

Not the prettiest shooter, but so what?It's a blast!
With many PlayStation-owning shooter fans singing the praises of Einhander and R-Type Delta, this one has sort of been lost in the shuffle.That's a shame, because G Darius has lots to offer both hardcore and casual fans of the genre.

I fear that, since almost all of your foes in this game are robot aquatic creatures (sharks, crabs, sea horses, etc.), some people may dismiss it as "silly".In fact there is nothing silly or stupid about it.It's a fast-paced side-scroller with intensity to spare, and it boasts some of the most hectic bullet-dodging mayhem you'll ever encounter.

Your spacecraft has two weapons which are fired simultaneously:the standard, straightforward gun (horizontal) and grenades (vertical), both of which can be upgraded by snatching orbs from defeated enemies.What makes the game unique is the capture ball, a weapon you can launch at your foes to turn them into your sidekicks.They'll follow you loyally and attack whenever you fire, like the "options" in the Gradius series.There are quite a few different enemies you can do this to, and all of them have unique offensive capabilities.Some fire a very basic shot;some fire a "spread" shot;some hurl themselves at the opposition, causing damage by brazenly crashing into them at high speeds.

Speaking of speed, G Darius rips along at a pretty brisk pace,although the stages themselves are of satisfactory length.Minor slowdown sometimes occurs when you're doing battle with a boss and it launches about 100 bullets in your direction at once.In those rare cases, the slowdown is actually a blessing in disguise, because it affects everything on the screen, not just you.

Yes indeed, the screen can get mighty cluttered at times, but never to a hopelessly overwhelming degree.Unlike some shooters where staying alive is a strictly academic process of trial and error and moving into the right spot at the right time (cough, R-TYPES, cough), G Darius never "punishes" the player for an unwise maneuver by condemning him/her to an instant death.If your reflexes are sharp enough and you never release the rapid fire button, there is always at least a fashion model-slim chance that you'll be able to blast your way out of an extremely sticky situation and emerge victorious by the skin of your teeth.Your shields can be powered up much like your weapons can, a fact that brings new meaning to the term "life-saver".

Mind you, you can do more than dodge and peck away at the opposition to elude destruction at the hands (well, fins anyway) of a big, bullying barracuda or a cluster of kamikaze catfish.Foes bound to your service by the capture ball can be detonated if you want to take out any surrounding adversaries (or if you just plain get sick of having the stupid beasts follow you around).Even better, you can use them to power up your Alpha Beam, a weapon that will easily cut a swathe of carnage through standard enemies and lay some serious pain on the bosses as well.Don't start thinking you're omnipotent, though;each boss has a similar weapon (imaginitively titled the Beta Beam) and when yours meets theirs head-on, a struggle for supremacy ensues, with both beams growing in size and power until A) the duration of the beam expires, B) the battle concludes, or C) the entire screen gets filled by a glorious outpouring of blazing destruction originating from one side or the other.

The graphics here may not be terribly impressive but they get the job done.The designs of the enemies sometimes leave a bit to be desired (there's only so much you can do to make robotic fish look exciting, y'know?).The backgrounds are the game's strongest visual point, with some cool animation telling miniature stories while you're fighting for your life.There's one stage where a planet in the distance is doomed to be destroyed every time you play.Poor planet.My favorite stage has the ruins of a human city floating around;check out your ship's reflection in the mirrored windows of a skyscraper torn from its foundation, silently drifting through space.

The soundtrack has some forgettable fare with a 16-bit feel, but a few tracks are really striking.There's one (in the stage I just described) that can only be described as sounding "spacy" which is devoid of percussion and is so laid-back, it makes the on-screen chaos seem like some bizarre new age therapy.The final battle music is suitably catchy and adrenalized...you can also hear it when you first load the game, before pressing start, but obviously it won't have the same impact.And the "game over" tune is...dare I say it...beautiful!It almost makes it pleasant to end the game prematurely.

At the end of each stage, you'll have to choose between two adjacent stages to move on to.There are fifteen stages in all, and you'll have to beat five of them to win the game.Plus, each stage splits into an upper route and a lower route at the half-way point, and the boss will use different attacks against you depending on which route you take.Therefore, you'll have to play through the game quite a few times before you can truthfully say that you've seen it all.This, plus nine difficulty settings and the ability to adjust your reserve lives, credits, and capture balls makes for very high replay value for shooter fans of all skill levels.

If you still enjoy 2-D shooters, either passionately or casually, I cannot recommend this game enough, as long as you're prepared to PLAY it rather than just look at it.Whatever it lacks in graphic intensity, it more than makes up for with the IMPORTANT kind of intensity, and that's in the gameplay department.I've had this game for several years and I can't imagine it growing tiresome anytime soon.

Good game for money.
This is a good game for the money when you compare it to Gradius III & IV for the PS2. I like this game because you can sit down and play very quickly. It doesn't take long to learn what to do or to get started. You can take different paths through the game to mix things up and there is a vs. Boss option that allows you to just fight the bosses. It is a pretty simple side shooter, but it keeps me coming back because it's fun to play.

Instead of buying Gradius III & IV for PS2 (if you have one), you could buy this and another game for the same money. G Darius is much better than Gradius III & IV even though it was created for the PS1.

P.S. if you can't find it - try Funcoland

Not Worth It ! ! !
I have this game and it is pretty good shooter game but doesn't have any action. The words are blurry so you can't see the text. It has good graphics but the gameplay lacks action and it doesn't hook you on to it to keep you playing it. The weapons are pretty cool but overall the game is worth 2 stars. :)

A good shooter for the Playstation
G. Darius is a side scrolling 1 or 2 player shooter in the tradition of Gradius and R-Type.It uses polygons to form the characters and backrounds, and features an innovative new power up system that allows you to capture your enemies and use them as helpers.The great thing about the capture feature is that you can capture almost any enemy...even mini-bosses!G. Darius is of decent length and also has multiple paths so you don't have to play through the same levels each time, adding variety and replay value.There are a few factors which hinder it from perfection, though...like the drab colors in some areas, flat textures on some enemies, and occasional slowdown.Other than that, I believe G. Darius is a worthy addition to any shooting game fan's library. ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

Fully licensed by the National Lacrosse League, BlastLacrosse is the first and only lacrosse game for the PlayStation.All nine teams--complete with official uniforms and rosters--from thisindoor lacrosse league are in the game. The gameplay is heavilyinfluenced by the NFL Blitz series, known for its fast-pacedarcade-style action. Teams get hot after scoring three goals in a row, givingthem an advantage until they're shut down. Also similar are thedramatic comebacks and lead changes that are a regular part of thegame.

Players will react strongly to Scott Farrell's commentary. Some willlove his frequent one-liners and comedic timing, while others will hateit. There will be no argument over the game's shoddy graphics, however.The players are extremely blocky and lack detail. The game's controlsare a mixed bag. While running, passing, and checking are fairlysmooth, controlling a player's shot can be challenging.

Technically and aesthetically Blast Lacrosse is an average gameat best. However, it offers the unique experience of a novel sport.Gamers looking for something different will want to consider thistitle. No other game will let you play out your dream of becoming aRochester Knighthawk. --Raymond M. Padilla

Pros:

• An original experience
• Frenetic gameplay
• Unique commentary

• Poor graphics
• Imprecise shooting
• Season mode is limited

its ok
this game is like a 1990 arcade game pretty much.its fun too play with friends and to laugh at, but it [is really bad].The reason i give it 3 stars is cause its the first lax game, and everyone knew it was gonna [be bad].so get it for the winter when you cant actually play lax, and just have some fun with it.

Where is the monster mesh with a titan warrior shaft?
Come on this game didn't go big dawg. Do not by this game cause its a fool. First all the lacrosse sticks don't look real. I mean look at the cover who would be able to cradle a ball in taht small of pocket. Also, they should have college teams to cause they are the shizzle. Also, I think they should have made real lax pads made my real companies. Like the shaft saying stx kind of like how they have in tony hawk 3. Take advise from me and stick with nhl 99 or 98 for sega saturn cause this game remind isn't even close to those games

BLAST LACROSSE IS AWESOME!!!
THIS GAME IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES EVER!WITH HIGH PUMPING ADDITUDE!!!IT HAS SEASON PLAY AND ALL 9 NLL TEAMS!THIS GAME WOULD PROBABLY BEST SUIT A DIE-HARD LACROSSE FAN!!!

SO GET READY FOR SOME MAJOR ACTION!!!

BUY IT!...
Alright, I think this game is AWESOME!...It's almost exaxtly like real indoor lacrosse. And i bet ya that if enough are sold, they might do a outdoor one. They could make it a little more realistic though. I mean make it so you can make whatever shot you want. Like a elevator or any kind of crank. Also, some better graficts would be better. But this game is so cool outside of those few little details. Just to say im 14 and have been playing for 4 years, all seasons exept summer.PLEASE BUY THE GAME...

Time to Update
Yo this game could be off the chain with all the new gamin technology out.Put some cats on the Blast 2 project for PS2 and you'd have a top-selling game.Lax is growing in the US and the people with Playstation should take advantage of it. Also, they should put more research into the game cause they left out some really important parts of the game, like dodging.This game could have a lot of potential. ... Read more

Cute, Charming, and Cool, But Kinda Cruddy
Okay, first things first. It's cute, charming, cool, yet cruddy. Hello!? Why didn't K.A. make the ... thing? It's almost like a completely different series- you can't morph what you wanna morph. I love cats, and Rachel is my fave Animorph (no duh), so I beg my mom to get it for me so I can play it. I wanted to morph Fluffer McKitty. But NOOO, you ...CANT! AARGH! But still, nice try! Coins? Hit-and-run technique? Look-at-me-I-have-to-morph-a-bear-or-some-other-not-so-cute-thing? I still loved it, and I'm still an Animorphs freak, but why's it so.........I dunno........weird? Hint: Make a different game. Better graphics. Better plot. Better GAME!

Rachel, Jake, Cassie, and Marco really come to life!
It's great.Although it is a platform game that is basically side-scrolling (very little 3-D action) it is really fun.But I guess you have to be a fan of the best-selling book series to get into it and understand it.But it's great.The voices are great and the animation is great.They got the morphs down packed and K.A. Applegate should be proud.I love the game.

Wake me up when its over
This game is BAD.No kidding, no mincing words.The graphics are annoying when there is a fight sequence and all you do is wander around collecting coins (hello...haven't we moved beyond that by now?) What a waste of time.Don't even consider buying this lame game.

It's BAD.
It's "bad" plain and simple. When I got into a fight, the screen who shake, and I wouldn't see what was going on. It doesn't fllow along with the rules of the book. Like the way morphing looks. And the characters are always human, when in the book do they let their enemies see them as humans? ( This is before the yeerks find out their kids. ) Four of of six playable characters. I am sickened... Bad graphics. Marco has a "Rino" for a morph! C'mon! I'm so sickened, DO NOT BUY!!!!

Animorphs
First of all I love the Animorphs books. Though I didn't like the way it ended. I read all of them. I did love all the action and comedy that was told very well. I loved the fact that there was going to be a video game. I was worried that it would be like the TV show which I thought was terrible. It thankfully was like the books. Great animation in the movies. They showed what before I could only see in my mind. It also showed hork-bajar tougher than andalites fixing a problem with the books. The levels had good graphics. They were fun and chalenging with lots of action. Now for the problems with the game. You didn't get to play as Ax or Tobias. There were not enough levels and they all took place on earth. Many of the aliens you fight never were in the books and made no sense. The biggest problem is you can't morph at will. The game morphs for you. Why are you always jumping around as a human instead of morphing bird. ... Read more

its alright
this game is pretty good. the only thing i dont like is the modes that u fish in. the tournaments ... because u dont really get a chance to fish because its based on a timer and once its up u weight your 3 biggest fish. another bad thing is that u dont get to go where u want in a boat, u just pick a fishing scene and cast. another small con is when your reeling a fish in, it constantly goes back and forth to the underwater view at which u cant reel in and u just have to watch, that really gets old after a while. so does the game. youll like it wen u get it but it gets old and boring.

good-easy game
This was a good game, I have seen alot better from the fishing and hunting areas but this was still a good game. This game was challenging yet easy. it was challenging when you got a big fish on and yet it was easy tobeat.there is a few supprises on the way too. If you are a big bassfisherman I would get this if not I would stay away

Not Worth It
This game is not worth buying. Rent it first, other fishing games for Playstation are much better. It is annoying with it's continue screen that comes up while your fishing like an arcade game. It's also very strenuouson your finger, when trying to reel a fish in you have to press circle or xabout fifty times instead of being able to hold the button down.

Great game play...very short game...too easy to beat...
This game is a great game for everyone to play...angler or not...everyone seems to love the control...best yet...the graphics...great...and the commentary.The only draw back to the game is its lack of depth...very fewplaces to fish...and really easy to finish the game...in about two hours. This is not a game for the serious fishing enthusiast...if you are lookingfor fun...for a bunch of people...this is a really great game! ... Read more

Too hard; suboptimal graphics
We purchased this game for our 4 year old and found the game to be too difficult.Not that the tasks were difficult but performing them were.As an adult, we couldn't get passed the first level.We also found the graphics to be weak and resemble early computer games.

"Great Fun!" -Straight from the Source
As an employee of the company that made this game I am inclined to lie to you and say that this game is the greatest game in the world. I'm not going do that. But this game is great fun for children ages 9 or less and is a really easy game to play. In Land Before Time I was really impressed with the entertainment and the quality gameplay I received even though the game is meant for children. The game possesses cartoon graphics and cute vocal interactions between characters. The levels are well thought out and the game is truly fun to play. The control could be a bit more fluid but the game is still very enjoyable. If you are looking for a game that your children will enjoy and that isn't full of blood and violence buy this game. ...

This game has a strange cult following!
I first rented master of monsters for Sega Genesis in the Early 90's. I lived in a college house, and my Genesis was the house console.Once we found this game, there was no playing any other games in the house.My housemates were big strategy gamers.Part of the allure of MOM is that its a hex map game.There weren't any other hex map games back then.I don't acctually know of any other hex map strategy games now either, but I'm not a big strategy gamer.Anyway, when I found out that MOM was going to come out for Playstation I was PSYCHED!This game is a fun bash of the AI, (its none to bright), but its an excellent game for 2 or more.Saving is easier accomplished on the PS version then it was on the Genesis.Sometimes I think that the rolls are rigged, or not accurate, but it doesn't really matter, the game is still somehow really fun.It really reminds me of that old game Ogre, its quite similar, and honestly if you like strategy map gaming, this may be the game for you.The monsters all have some pretty serious stats, and abilities.Its nice to have the computer keep track of all that stuff for you.

bad
do not buy unles you like corny games with bad graghics,horrable fighting and realy bad story.So if you like those all buy it but your $ would be spent better for anything.

Master of Monsters
This is a great game for people who like to combine strategy with luck and a little Fantasy Fiction. The only drawbacks are it's speed and limitations compared to the original version on Sega Genesis.

If you love the original...
.. you'll like this one... Has some of the original Master of Monster Pro's and a new ones,. Has new monsters, new items, a lot of things but it doesn't have a diference beetwen "Masters" Summons. But its goodand gonna give a lot of hours of fun and strategy. The 23 chapters are longenough to put your brain to work but in some places are predictables. Ifyou played good enough, the game is gonna give you a few Extra Episodes...try it! ... Read more

Amazon.com Product Description

Not your typical Saturday afternoon at the bowling alley--the characters from the classic cartoon The Flinstones careen through crazy courses in the hollowed-out centers of bowling balls. Once the game begins, you are in the driver's seat, aiming to knock down pins and collect gems. This 3-D arcade game has 12 different levels, each with varying difficulty. Open up extended areas of the lanes and qualify for bonus and hidden levels. Yaba-dabba-do! ... Read more

We DON"T want more bad games!
This game sucks really bad so bad I can't even believie I am taking the time to write this review. Don't buy it or rent it. Don't play it or look at it and never say Flintstones and bowling in the same sentence again! Or else.

b r bowling
ILOVE this game.My favorite lane is the crystal mine. On the easy level I always get a STRIKE on it!!!!But the lava lane stinks!!!!But I actually got a STRIKE on it once!!!But also I fell in the lava 5 times!!!! Otherwise I LOVE the game.

Better than most people might expect
My little brother and sister got "The Flintstones Bedrock Bowling" for Christmas, and from the back cover of the game, it didn't look like it would be that fun.But after I started playing it, I found out I was wrong.It's a different kind of bowling game, it's not just your typical stand and bowl and knock all the pins down.You choose from a few of the famous Flintstones characters such as Barney, Pebbles, and even Dino.You then bowl down steep hills and sharp curves, and on the way down to the bottom, you have to try to knock over 10 bowling pins, collect as many gems as you can, and find 3 birds.There are 12 different levels on which you must bowl through everything you can, and on the way, there are also some challenging bonus levels.It's also 2 player, which makes it even better.

Most of the basics are pretty good in "The Flintstones Bedrock Bowling."It has some good backgrounds and graphics, the music and sounds are good enough, and it can be a lot of fun.The control is also good, but it's a little touchy at first, but once you play a few levels you'll be used to it.The only downfall to this game is that it's way too easy.This might make it best for young kids who like bowling or The Flintstones.There are obstacles on each level such as dinosaurs running around, but you can't fall off the edge of the level and even when you fall in a lava pit which would seem deadly, it just takes you back a little bit and you have to do that part over.However, "The Flintstones Bedrock Bowling" is a lot of fun and I recommend it to anybody that likes bowling games.It's a lot better than just about anybody would first expect it to be.

NOT A CHALLENGE BUT ITS OKAY
I played this one recently during a visit to my sister in Ft. Lauderdale.The game may not be a challenge to expert gamers but it was fun and different. Do not expect a traditional bowling alley here, it is completelydifferent and more like a racing game. The graphics are OKAY and sure itwill be a collector's item to any Flintstones Fan.My only regret isrelated to the fact that the game has already been released to video storesfor rent and don't know the reason why it was not released for commercialretail yet.

Playing MonsterSeed
I'm reviewing RPG, Adventure and Strategy games, this game is a mixture between Jade Cocoon and Final Fantasy 7.

In this game you play the role of a character named Daniel,you're somebody called a Ruler,you can collect "seeds" and hatch and mix in "solutions" to make stronger monsters.

This game was good because you can make your own monsters and carry as many as you want.It was also good because the game always has something good or bad happening.

If they made it to where you cant get "deformed" monsters there would be a better variety of monsters.What would also make it better would be to make more "seeds".

People who like Adveture,Drama,and making your own Monsters will like this game.

wow, this game is hella cool
hmmm... good game. If you liked Dragon Warrior Monsters, Final Fantasy Tactics, or Dragon Seed (no relation), you'll love it. This game incorperates a monster hatching system like DWM and one of the best battle systems ever, the FFT/Tactics Ogre system. The translation is terrible, but it doesnt affect the game too much, and adds a few laughs to generally grim gameplay. The fights are very grim, as anyone who falls and is not raised immediatly says a few final word and then dies, even though the fighting is presented as a sport in the arena. Plenty of cool looking beasties to look as as well as some cutsie ones to stomp on. Buy it.

short but loads of fun
I was able to beat monster seed in two weeks(along time for me).
No I am not saying that this game is hard or any thhing but it was fun to get new seed and hach them.
This game should have been a little longer (around three disks).

Still I would sugest this game to any RPG fan.

I hated this game!
This game was horrible. If you want somthing like final fantasy or dragon warrior monsters this is not the game for you. How the main character kept saying"Ora Ora Ora" got very annoying. The graphics stunk and so did the storyline.It is not worth your money. I would not reccomend this game to anyone.

A gamer in MN
I think Monster Seed is a VERY cool game. .... If you're a graphics nut, than you won't want to go for this game.It has very poor graphics, i.e. the people have no noses, but the cinematics scene in the beginning is VERY impressive.The battle system is easy to get used to, but the "ENCOUNTER: Your Start" gets old pretty quick.All in all, a good game. ...

Editorial Review

What's a Q*bert? He's a cantankerous little orange feller with an anteater-like snout and apenchant for swearing in an alien tongue. Don't worry, parents, his swearing is cutely expressed in asterisksand squiggles, accompanied by an audio clip of garbled electronic noises. Q*bert was the star of his veryown coin-op video game that debuted back in 1982, challenging players to hop from cube to brightlycolored cube while avoiding missteps and collisions, and this PlayStation remake contains that old game inits entirety. Also here is a brand new set of challenges spanning 24 lamp-lit levels.

Q*bert doesn't make a very smooth transition from arcade to PlayStation, mostly because of itslack of decent control. In the original, coin-op version, players used a joystick that could move only on thediagonal to hop along cubes, changing their top color. In this version, the existence of the two sticks on thePlayStation analog or dual shock analog controllers is ignored. Instead, you must tilt your controller anduse the D-pad to diagonally move Q*bert across the playing field. Still, the game has an inspired design, with cute characters, funny sound effects, and plenty of power-ups. But the control interface has a hugeimpact on gameplay, and in this case it's negative.--Jeff Young

Pros:

• Includes the entire, original arcade game
• Groovy, psychedelic graphics

• Very hard to control
• Confusing menu designs

Features

• Freaky action game featuring everyone's favorite hopper
• Jump around the 3-D network
• Includes classic arcade game
• 24 new levels
• For 1 player

Wierd!
This game is OK! The story is weird and the adventure mode stinks! The classic mode is so much better! The only things wrong with this game is that controlling Q-bert is so hard and it is sort of boring. There just isn't much to do.

Oh for a 2600-style joystick
The classic version would be great, if only I could substitute the shoddy PS controller for a real Joystick. As for the 3D adventure version, I find the perspective really wacky. It's sometimes really difficult to guess which way you're supposed to jump. Maybe I'm just less tolerant than I used to be.

EXCELLENT GAME!
Q*BERT shows why some of the orignal video games are still the best. Its the gameplay that sets them apart.Q*Bert wont dazzle you with graphics or music, but it will have you hooked with its great gameplay.The firstnight I fired this game up I couldn't quit playing it for 2 hours.It iseasily addictive as Tetris, and that is a great thing.There is a littlelearning curve as the control can be a little tricky, however if you areusing a Dual Shock controller, the analog pads are the way to go. I highlyrecommend picking this game up, it is a must own!

Guilty pleasure
When I first got this game, I thought it stunk!The graphics are not all that good in the first level of the game, the movement is hard to figure out, and it looked nothing like the old school Q*Bert that I use to playwhen I was a kid.But I kept at it, and the game really grew on me.Afterthe first level, the game gets better and better.You have to jump in 3Dall over Q*Bert land.If you like cheesy games that remind you of yourchildhood, then this game is kinda cool.

Love the Orange Ball guy!
i got this game, thought it would be fun to play it after years out of print & to see what it would be like. it's total COOOOOOOOLNESS. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Few racing games for the PlayStation can approach Need forSpeed III: Hot Pursuit in terms of car selection, track layout, andsheer fun. Combine the game's quality with the fact that it was addedto the PlayStation's bargain Greatest Hits collection, and youhave a title that deserves to be in the library of any racing fan.

Hot Pursuit gets its name from our favorite mode of gameplay, inwhich players try to exceed the reach of the long arm of the law bygreatly exceeding the speed limit. The ultimate goal is to beat youropponent to the finish line, but usually it's hard enough just dodgingoncoming traffic, swerving around police roadblocks (complete withspike strips), and trying to keep pursuit vehicles from slamming youoff the road. It's nearly as fun to watch replays as it is to race, andwe've only discussed one of the game's five types of play. Thisdiverse, fast-paced racer is definitely a keeper. --T. ByrlBaker

Pros:

• Nearly perfect arcade racing action
• Nice graphics, special effects, and sounds

• Some modes of play are incredibly difficult
• Can't play as the police

Features

• Fast paced arcade racing game
• Use radar, dispatchers, and roadblocks to track down speeders
• Race on 8 challenging tracks
• Hot pursuit on both sides of the law, including being tracked by the chopper
• For 1 or 2 players
