Treasure Mathstorm 07-26-24 10:11 AM |
Treasure Math Storm Review If you went to school in the 1980's and 1990's chances are you probably have heard of the Learning Company. The Learning Company made educational computer games up until its demise in the year 2000. The more popular games from the Learning Company where the Reader Rabbit series, Treasure also known as Super Seeker series, and problem solver series. Treasure Math Storm was part of the Treasure Seeker Series. I will be reviewing Treasure Math Storm. Plot- 8 The master of mischief later named Monty Maxwell has invented a winter/snow machine. He activates his machine and turns treasure mountain into a winter wonderland by creating a blizzard. The winter storm caused the clocks to go crazy, the scales went haywire, and the crystals scattered. Maxwell's antics froze the crown. However, you as the super seeker (also known as treasure seeker in some versions) can undo the master of mischief antics. If you solve the math problems and collect the treasure you will earn bigger treasure. Once the mountains treasures have been found the crown will start to melt. Once the crown melts it will return treasure mountain back to normal. Will you be able to solve all the math problems, find all the treasure, or will Treasure Mountain be stuck in a blizzard. When I first played this game in 1992/1993 I thought the story was nicely done. Once again Monty Maxwell is at it again causing mischief. I have always been into weather so having the mountain turn into a winter wonderland with a blizzard was a nice touch. I thought the plot was very good back then, so I will give it a solid 8 out of 10. Graphics-9 In 1993 the graphics in this game where mostly amazing. The snow actually looks like snow, The characters sprites are nicely done. For the most part the color is nicely done except for one small flaw, which I will explain later. The Super Seeker's outfit is also nicely done. Considering how some computer games even in 1993 had fuzz... Read the rest of this Review |
Paper Mario 07-06-24 10:40 AM |
Paper Mario Review Paper Mario was a game for the Nintendo 64. In the United States it was released in Japan in the year 2000 and hit the United States in early 2001. When this game first came out I played it some of my friends's house. I did not get a copy of this game till years later. Let me say it is easy to see why this game is such a huge hit. Today, I'm going to be doing a review of this classic as it is an oldie but goody. Story- 9 The story may start off being your typical Bowser kidnaps Peach and tries to take over the Mushroom Kingdom plot. However, there is a lot going on in the plot. The 7 Star Spirits watch over the star rod and grant wishes to people who have good intentions. The star spirits ignored Bowser's wishes because they where selfish wishes such as more power, being ruler of the Kingdom, getting Peach to like him and being able to defeat Mario. Tired of his wishes being ignored. Bowser steals the Star Rod gaining more power than he has. He also picks 7 guardians to guard the star spirits and imprisons them. Meanwhile Luigi and Mario receive and invitation to attend a ball hosted by Peach. Mario attends and speaks to Peach privately. Suddenly Bowser attacks the Castle. Mario attacks Bowser, but this time Bowser overpowers Mario due to having the star Rod. He throws Mario outside of the window after he lifts Peach's Castle several feet in the air. Mario is knocked out but is aided by a family of goombas. Mario makes his way to the Shooting Star summit which the star spirits use their last power to fill Mario on what has happened. Mario sets out with several tasks, save the 7 Star Spirits, defeat Bowser, and rescue Peach. Can Mario accomplish this difficult task or has Bowser finally got the upper hand? I must say this is more than your typical Mario Plot. Yes, Bowser does what he normally does. But he also does other things which to me offers something different. When I first played this game it was like this is differ... Read the rest of this Review |
Mega Man X3 01-26-24 12:20 PM |
Mega Man X3 Review I have reviewed remakes of Mega Man X3 and hacks mainly the Zero Project hacks. However, to my knowledge I have never reviewed the original. The Original Mega Man X3 was released on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES). Mega Man X3 is one of my favorite X games in the series. Today I'm going to be reviewing this classic and all time favorite. Story 10 Mega Man X3 takes place several years after X2. Dr. Doppler a reploid scientists has supposedly invented a Sigma Virus Vaccine. Humans and Reploids gather around Doppler Town named after the scientist. Everything is going well and it appears a golden age is developing. Suddenly, things start to go wrong. The mavericks which were supposed to be neutralized started to riot. Maverick Hunters X and Zero go to points around the city to see why the mavericks are increasing. They realize that Dr. Doppler might be behind the recent outbreaks. Why has Dr. Doppler gone insane, why is there recent maverick outbreaks, or is an old foe at it again. Mega Man X and Zero head out to get to the bottom of the uprising. Okay, when I first played this game I really thought there was a new bad guy. Spoiler Alert Sigma is revealed halfway through the game to be the mastermind. But at first you do not know that. It was like Capcom was offering something new. The first two games it was obvious and known that Sigma was the main bad guy. I really like the story because it was creative, and trying to give the illusion of something different. Thus, I give the Story a 10 out of 10. Graphics and Controls-10 The graphics in this game are just amazing. The backgrounds are nice an colorful. The Frozen City looks like a winter wonderland and is a nice touch. The jungle state looks like an actual jungle. All the stages are nicely done. The sprites are also nicely done. There is not one single lag in this came. Later versions of this game had a few lags but not the original. The graphics cannot ge... Read the rest of this Review |
Mega Man 64 01-06-24 01:28 PM |
Mega Man 64 also known as Legends I consider myself a Mega Man player. I have played the classical Mega Man, Mega Man X, Hacks, and the Legends series. Mega Man 64 also known as Legends were released on the N64 and Play Station 1. The first version I got was the Play Station version. I did not get the 64 version until later that is because I got the N64 years later. I will be for the most part comparing this version to the Play Station Version. Plot- The world is surrounded by more water than before. The world is desperate for resources. Diggers go into the ruins built by ancient humans, yeah this takes place centuries after this game came out, these ruins are filled with reaverbots who attack anyone that goes inside them. The main job of the diggers is to retrieve refractors which can be used to make electricity, power machines, among other things. Mega Man Trigger is of mysterious origin. He is taken in by a digger family and becomes an archaeologist as well as a top digger. He lives on an airship but the family he lives with crashes on Kattelox Island. Mega Man Trigger must get parts for his ship, defend the city from pirates and hopefully discover things from his past on who he actually is. He must also discover the secrets to Kattelox Island. Okay, The plot is not changed from the play station version since both versions came within a few months of each other just on different video game systems. It should be no surprise that the plot is the same. When I first got the playstation version I thought this is a different game its something new. There is no mention of Dr. Wily or Sigma in this plot. A few years later when I got the N64 version I felt the same way. Thus, I will give the story a solid 9 out of 10. Graphics and Controls- The main difference between this version and the Playstation version is the graphics. The Playstation version had awesome graphics. The PS graphics were colorful and the controls were amazing. When I got this version I was curious to see ... Read the rest of this Review |
Mega Man III - The Rise and Fall of Dr. Wily 01-06-24 12:03 PM |
Mega Man 3 Rise and fall of Dr. Wily Review. Mega Man 3 was one of the selling NES video games back in the Nintendo Entertainment System's heyday. While Mega Man 2 put the Mega Man series on the map, Mega Man 3 made the series and characters icons in the video game industry. It should come as no surprise that Mega Man 3 has been remade several times and ported to different systems. However, it should also come as no surprise that a lot of hacks have been done using this game. Mega Man 3 the Rise and Fall of Dr. Wily is a hack of Mega Man 3. I will be comparing this game to the original as well as other hacks of MM3 I have played. Story-The Story has remained the same. Dr. Wily appears to have denounced his evil ways. He teams up with Dr. Light also known as Dr. Right to build a peace keeping robot named Gamma. However, to power Gamma they need 8 crystals. The problem is 8 new robot masters has a crystal and they are running haywire. Dr. Light sends Mega Man to retrieve the crystals, stop the robots, and stop whoever is in charge of these new robots. Has Dr. Wily really turned good? Mega Man goes out to find these answers. The original Mega Man 3 had a good solid story line. In my opinion there was no need to change it. The maker of this game decided to keep the original story. Since the plot is left unchanged I give the story a solid 8 out of 10. Graphics and Controls- I really like the graphics in this game. The maker not only redesigned the stage layouts, but they made the colors darker and bolder. I am visually impaired so it was nice to enjoy the game's background with colors that I can see. For example, Gemini's Man stage has some yellow in. But the blocks change purple, red, green, and blue. I also like how some of the backgrounds in other stages have been changed to bold colors. The stage layouts make the game more difficult, but they were nicely done. The only problem with the graphics and controls. Is a few times it seems like the controls and graphics lagged a ...

Super Mario Advance 07-27-24 12:51 PM |
Mario Advance Guide Super Mario Bros 2 became a popular game. In 1993 it was included in the Mario All stars gave with updated graphics. Around 2001/2002 it was made for the Game Boy Advanced under Super Mario Advance. The graphics for the most part where left unchanged from the SNES but there was a few differences. When I got this game I played it a lot. I played the game a lot as either as Luigi or Mario. In this guide I will be basing it on Luigi, since that is who I use the most. Of the 4 characters you can use whoever you want. Mario and Luigi are the more well rounded characters. All characters have their strength and weaknesses. World One Part 1-1 Welcome to Subcon- Chose the player you want to start the game, again I use Luigi a lot, start the game. You will then fall into the world of Subcon. You should land on a hill and see a giant shy guy, knock the shy guy off to get a heart and turn into regular size. Then just keep heading downward to the next door. Once the door head right you will see an A coin these are ace coins. You do not have to get them to advance to the next level, but they do count for 100 percent. There will be a hill with a shy guy on top of it and a bean stalk. Climb the bean stalk pick up the 1st or 2nd veggie. Its a magic potion throw that down enter it to get a mushroom now you have 3 hearts instead of two. You can pick up the other veggies in the portion areas to get coins as well. After that just continue heading right. Now you can do two things here with Luigi. You can take the bottom path which the game wants you to take. Enter the door, climb the beanstalk head right and take out the Ninjas. Then head back out you will be on the top part. One of the veggies there is another mushroom. It should be noted that another A coin is in the path your supposed to take. If you don't care about getting the Ace coin have luigi squat down and do a power jump he will be able to leap to the top path. Then climb the beanstalk w... Read the rest of this Guide |
Treasure Mathstorm 07-07-24 06:46 PM |
Treasure Mathstorm Walkthrough If you were school in the 90's you probably have heard of Treasure Mathstorm. Treasure Math Storm was made by the Learning Company. It was released in the early 1990's. Since then other versions where released mainly for Windows. No matter the version they are all the same. The main difference among the versions is the color and voice of the characters. Otherwise this walkthrough will be good for other versions. However, I will be doing the Macintosh version since that is the version I played and are the most familiar with. The intro is mainly the plot of the game. You can press spacebar or click on your mouse to skip it. You will be asked to enter your name. Enter your name and start the game. Chirp the snow bird will give you instructions and hints. Starting off You will start with a few nets exit the Igloo. You want to catch elves with your net. The elves you want to capture are the ones holding scrolls. Once captured they will ask you to solve problems. Answer the math problem correctly. The Elf will tell you how many snowballs you need to put down or remove to find treasure. They will also give you cents you can use at the general store. I usually head left. You will notice a mountain but you need 4 picks to scale it. Keep going left and collect snowballs to get treasure. The first few levels have three treasure. You will then see a huge igloo with a clock on top of that enter. The time master will ask you to tell the time or match the clock with the digital clock. Do that and each time get a pick, again you need 4. Note after getting the picks. I recommend solving more time problems to get cents. Go back to the mountain that has pick marks you can now move the second area of the mountain. Once again you will have to capture an elf and solve the problem. Get the snowball code and find treasure. If you have earned enough cents. I recommend going to the general store to buy nets. I use to get the nets of three. Head to ... Read the rest of this Guide |
Mega Man X3 01-27-24 09:27 AM |
Mega Man X3 Walthrough Yesterday I did a review of the original Mega Man X3 for SNES. In my review I stated how X3 was one of my favorite X games in the X series. Today I decided I would do a walk through of one of my favorite games. The game starts off with the story. You can press start if you want to skip it. I cover the story more in my review. You will be taken to the intro stage. Zero and X will meet and discuss the mission. You start off controlling X. The best way to clear out the enemies is use charge shots and take them out. Just continue to head right and then down the ladder. You will be taken to another room. Mac a former hunter will talk to X before doing a cheap shot. There is no way to avoid the shot. X will be carried away. Zero will drop in from the ceiling. Charge Zero's shots and you can use his powerful saber. Beware of the falling ceiling parts. You will then go have to climb the wall. Beware though there is an enemy at top dropping spike balls. After the enemy drops the spike ball jump to the opposite side. You will then see a door gate. Before entering I charge Zero's Saber before heading in. Its time to battle Mac. Zero's Saber cuts right through him. Now you have X back. Head out the gate and climb up (no worries about enemies here) Then its mini boss time. The best way to deal with the intro stage mini boss is used charged shots and hit the head. However, he can use his spike balls to destroy the ground and hit you. Keep using charged shots and dodge. He will go down. Now you have completed the first stage. This is the boss order I usually do. Understand this is just me. If a boss is giving you a hard time try the next one until you find the right one. Blizzard Buffalo Toxic Seahorse Tunnel Rhino Volt Catfish Crush Crawfish Neon Tiger Gravity Beetle Blast Hornet Blizzard Buffalo Stage (one of my favorites) This stage has awesome music and the frozen city is a nice t...

Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers 07-27-23 01:50 PM |
Super Street Fighter 2 Guide If you grew up in the 1980's and 1990's like me chances are you probably heard of Street Fighter. In the Early 1990's we got Street Fighter 2. Then Capcom released Super Street Fighter 2 the new challengers. This game is probably what most people think of when it comes to street fighter. Street Fighter 2 established the franchise. I decided I will be doing a guide of this great game. Now, in my guide I will be doing a guide using Blanka, Sagat and E-Honda as those are the characters I mostly play as. I also will not be telling how to do moves in this game for several reasons. First, I have the controls set for me. Other people may use different buttons for their controllers. Second, if you need to you can google how to do the moves in this game. I think you can even download the manual if you need to. Also this is how I play the game what works for me, may not work for you. This is only a suggestion and guide. Anyway, here we go. Blanka Playthrough boses are in no particular order. Blanka is one of the more fiercest fighters in the game. Cammy- Cammy loves to kick and use her spear weapon. I have found the rolling attack to do well against Cammy. If she gets close to you, you can shock her or bite her. She will go down quickly. Dee-Jay- He loves to throw his fireballs and kick. Use the rolling attack to keep him at a distance. If he moves close to you. You can uppercut him, shock him or bite him. You can also do an air kick against him. He will eventually go down. T.Hawk- Hawk loves to close in on you which is actually what I like for him to do. Do not try to bite him as he will do his raging typhoon on you which does serious damage. Shocking him is the best way to earn a quick victory Fei-Long- Don't do air kicks against him as he will knock you down. He also will grab you if you get close. Rolling attacks are the best way to knock him out. Also he can be prone to low uppercuts so use that to your advanta... Read the rest of this Guide |
Mega Man Legends 07-27-23 12:51 PM |
Mega Man Legends Guide Mega Man Legends was a new entry into the Mega Man franchise. This game came out in the late 1990's. I want to think 1997 or 1998 to be specific. I actually like this game, so I decided I would do a guide. Disclaimer: This is just how I play the game. I hope you find this helpful but at the end of the day you have do what works for you. Anyway here is my guide. First you start a new game. You star off in a tower. Roll will tell you what to do. Take out the Reaverbots. Sometimes the Reaverbots will drop money. You will come to a door. Roll will explain how to open doors. Not enter the door just yet. Take out the Reaverbots that pop out from the wall to see if they drop money. Then you can enter the door. The room has more Reaverbots in them take them out. You will then enter a few more rooms. You come across a side door with a big box. Blast the box and it will drop money. The game tells you what to do with the money. Head back out you will see another door don't go in it just yet. Go to the left. You will see a Spider reaverbot on the ceiling Roll will tell you how to take out enemies from the top. Take it out. Then enter the door (not the one you passed) Climb up the step and take out the traps that have a force field up. You will see two treasure chests. Open one to get money. Open one to get a power blaster. The game will tell you how to equip buster parts. Now Head back to the door you passed and enter you will fight the first true boss. This boss loves to hit you with its arm. Don't get hit as it will severely damage you. The best thing is to run around the boss firing. It will eventually go down. Then you get a cutscene. You crash on Kattelox Island Talk to Professor Barrel he will tell you to head for the city. Head to the trail that says town. The police will come. Go back and talk to the inspector or Barrel. He will take Barrel to get cards later on in the game. Go back to the trail and enter town. Talk... Read the rest of this Guide |
