WWF No Mercy

WWF No Mercy Review, at last
After months playing this game, and other parts of the year not caring about it whatsoever, it's finally time for my WWF No Mercy review.

This game is a cornerstone of wrestling games, and if I can't play WWF Smackdown 1 or 2 on this website, mainly because I don't have the PlayStation here,  then this will have to do as a part-time gaming hobby.

For the story, it's simple, win any of the WWF titles (World Heavyweight, Intercontinental, Tag Team, Women's, European, Light Heavyweight, and Hardcore).

But it's not simple, you can't just win all you matches. You have to win some matches, then lose some matches. The ultimate goal for this game is to achieve a 100% completion rate for all the titles.

The roster is stacked, with guys like Triple H, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, The Undertaker, Kane, Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Kurt Angle, among others. 

Let's take a look and see which mechanics cashed in on their opportunities and which ones need future endeavoring:

Graphics: The wrestlers look extremely detailed, and all of their signature attires are there. I still notice a lack of referee in this game, but that has been done before, in Wrestlemania 2000, and the WCW games. The arenas and the background areas add a sense of realism as well. Overall, this game is heavily detailed, and I can see why people are calling it the best wrestling game of all time. 10/10

Sound: I love the background music and the entrance themes, but I felt like that there were some things missing, and again, no commentary. 9/10

Gameplay: It's awesome! The A.I is fluid, and the motions are well-balanced and perfected, just like in a wrestling ring. The only thing that bothers me about this game is not being able to counter efficiently, and sometimes the opponent counters to easily, especially early in a match. I also didn't play the tag team modes, mainly because I could not find the button that makes me tag... Read the rest of this Review
WWE - Survivor Series

WWE Survivor Series Review
This is my review for the game WWE Survivor Series 

The story is simple: You need to Impress the General Managers of each brand: Raw or Smackdown.

The game has 16 wrestlers, 8 from each brand

For the Raw brand:

"The Legend Killer" Randy Orton
"The Game" Triple H
Edge
"The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels
"Captain Charisma" Christian
"The Rabid Wolverine" Chris Benoit
"Y2J" Chris Jericho
"The Big Red Machine" Kane

For the Smackdown brand:
Booker T
"The Doctor of Thuganomics" John Cena
"The Wrestling Machine" Kurt Angle
Chavo Guerrero
"Latino Heat" Eddie Guerrero
"Mr. Thursday Night" Rob Van Dam
"The Master of the 619" Rey Mysterio
The Undertaker

Your goal is to win all the titles on one brand, then go to the other brand and do the same thing.

Pretty simple, right?

Except that was the goal of the last game. Road to Wrestlemania X8, and the one before that.

Let's take a closer look at this game:

Graphics: GBA-level, lower quality than the last game 4/10

Sound: No commentary, and the sound effects are recycled from the last game: 6/10

Story: Pretty straight-forward, but the opponents are randomized, and you never know what is going to happen during your matches. 7/10 

Gameplay: The mechanics are the same as the last game, but I'm surprised that they put actual effort for the new characters, including new animations for the finishers. The controls are the same, but the select button is now the finisher button, instead of AB, 8/10

Addictiveness: The cage matches will get boring when you can't escape the cage before your opponent gets up. 7/10

Depth: Not much, they removed the shopzone, which eliminated all purpose of playing the game. 5/10

Difficulty: It's not that hard of a game, unless you're tired of the opponent reversing all your moves, 5/10

Now for the fin... Read the rest of this Review
Backyard Hockey

Backyard Hockey Review
In the tradition of Backyard Sports, an NHL game staring kid versions of your favorite skaters and the kids you have learned to love throughout all the Backyard Sports games are all here in "Backyard Hockey" 

Quite simply, this game is NHL ice action in your own backyard

Here are some of the notable characters in the game:

Pablo Sanchez, the MVP of Backyard sports

Jaromir Jagr, the Czech sharpshooter

Reese Worthington, the defensive genius

Paul Kariya, the Anaheim Ducks Captain

Steve Yzerman, the man of the hour in Detroit

Mike Modano, the captain of the Dallas Stars

Joe Thornton, the big man from Boston (now San Jose)

Curtis Joseph, the best goalie never to win a Stanley Cup

and more of the kids you are familliar with throughout all the Backyard Sports Series

For a game like this to be ported on the GBA, it's looks challenging, but it's a whole lot of fun

Now, let's get to the game itself:

Graphics: Once again, GBA-level graphics, but it's still pleasing to the eye. 8/10

Sound: The commentary is non-existent, but the sound effects are good. 8/10

Gameplay: For a hockey game, it's more of the same, execpt for the power-ups (but only if they are activated in the settings). The shooting mechanics need a little work, and the Goalie AI makes it almost impossible to score 7/10

Addictiveness: Do I want to play this game again? Absolutely! The fantasy drafting and fast-paced gameplay makes me want to play it more often. 10/10

Depth: Not much, only Season mode. I think this is the only downside to playing this game, as you do not get the full hockey experience. 5/10

Story: It's pretty simple. You draft a team, defeat the other teams, and win the championship. It's not that hard, unless you have a bad draft. 6/10

Difficulty: It's not that hard playing defense, but it is playing offense. 8/10Read the rest of this Review
Mortal Kombat 4

Mortal Kombat 4 Review
Mortal Kombat 4 Review

To start off, let's talk about the basic plot of the game:

Shinnok, a fallen Elder God, wants to take over Earthrealm for himself by siding with the Netherrealm sorcerer Quan Chi (BTW, the plan does not go well in the end for either of them)

Now the Kombatants are set to stop Shinnok from destroying the world. 

Here's the full list:

Kai, a Shaolin Monk and a comrade of Kung Lao and Liu Kang

Raiden, the Thunder God and mentor to our heroes

Shinnok, the Fallen Elder God and final boss of the game

Liu Kang, the one and only champion of Mortal Kombat

Reptile, a Zaterran (don't know what that means, maybe a lizardman) who serves Shinnok

Scorpion, the spectre who has no allegiance (has rivalries with Sub-Zero and Quan Chi)

Jax, the Special Forces agent

Reiko, Shinnok's right hand man

Johnny Cage, the actor BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!!

Jarek, the last survivor of the Black Dragon

Tanya, the traitor of Edenia

Fujin, the God of wind and new protector of Earthrealm

Sub-Zero, the cyromancer

Quan Chi, the sorcerer

Sonya, the Special Forces leader on the hunt for Jarek

All of them will fight for the future of the Realms. or so we thought when playing this game

Now, let's get to the game itself

Being the first Mortal Kombat game in 3-D, the graphics are made to represent that. The fighters now look realistic and can have their arms snapped, their necks broken, or their legs broken. The backgrounds are still 2-D though.

In terms of fighting mechanics, it's still the same, with weapons added to each fighter, although it can be removed from a fighter when hit by his or her opponent. The special moves are there, the two fatalities per character, now in 3-D, and some of the fatalities are pretty good

The arcade ladder is the same one from the UMK3, ex... Read the rest of this Review
Mortal Kombat - Deadly Alliance

MKDA Review: FailTality
Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance for the Game boy Advance

Let's see how this goes:

So for the basic plot of the story, Quan Chi is trapped in the Netherrealm, after revealing himself to be the killer of Scorpion's family and his clan, the Shirai Ryu. He escapes by stealing Shinnok's amulet, and teams up with Shang Tsung to revive the "Dragon King" and his army, and Raiden, the Thunder God, has to stop them. However, he must sacrifice his Elder God status to do so and help the others. This game introduces a lot of new characters, alongside previous favorites like Johnny Cage, Sub-Zero (now unmasked for the 2nd time, although his alternate costume contains a mask), and the aformentioned Raiden.

Unfortunately, not all the characters in the console versions are present in the Game Boy version :(

The character roster stands at the ff: 

Shang Tsung , the sorcerer who wants to RULE THE WORLD

Quan Chi, the ruler of the underworld aka the Netherrealm

Scorpion, the spectre hellbent on revenge

Raiden, the God of Thunder (Sorry Thor)

Jax, the Special Forces agent with all the muscles

Sub-Zero, the Lin Kuei Grandmaster who's picking new students

Kitana, the princess of Edenia

Kung Lao, the Shaolin monk wanting to avenge the death of his friend

Frost, Sub-Zero's apprentice, and a very arrogant individual

Sonya, the leader of the Special Forces

Kano, the Black Dragon leader

Li Mei, the one of few good people of Outworld

Kenshi, the blind swordsman

All the other characters present in the console versions (except Shang Tsung, Quan Chi, and Scorpion), along with Sektor, Sareena, and Noob, are in Tournament Edition, basically a new version of the same game


The graphics are basically GBA-level graphics. The pixelated characters are not creatively designed, and the backgrounds do not move at all.
