Activision Classics Yay, we get to play 30 games that are already on Vizzed! XD
Action 52 Fortunately, the 52nd game, The Cheetahmen, is actually good!
Asterix NEScafe has the same problems!
Asterix DO NOT PLAY ON VNES! HAS SEVERE GRAPHIC PROBLEMS!
WCW Nitro I used to play this game on PlayStation 1. lost it, though.
Nicktoons - Attack of the Toybots This game isn't exactly retro, is it?
Zig Zag Cat - Ostrich Club mo Oosawagi da This would be good for Netplay when it comes out.
Doom (E) Also, the SNES has more levels. The only thing it lacks is the graphics, they're horrible. On the 32X they're better, but really, everything should be better!
Zig Zag Cat - Ostrich Club mo Oosawagi da Test comment
Godzilla 2 - War of the Monsters yeah, might as well call it "Simzilla" than a sequel.

Animorphs: Shattered Reality
12-07-16 11:28 PM
Morphing into something underwhelming
"Animorphs" was one of Scholastic's longer lasting book series, written by K.A. Applegate. The completed series had 54 main books over 5 years(June 1996-May 2001), depicting a war between 5 human youths and an evil, body-snatching race called the Yeerks, as well as many other alien races in the middle. Each book told a story from a specific character's point of view, either from Jake, Marco, Rachel, Cassie, Tobias and eventually Ax, their Andalite ally that tries to adapt to Earth's customs. All 6 of them have the power to acquire animal forms and morph into them at will with a simple thought, talking through thought-speak and harnessing their morphs' abilities, strengths and weaknesses... For about two hours at a time though, along with keeping their identities a secret from their Yeerk foes as well as their friends and family to avoid them becoming targets.

So with 54 books plus 10 more companion books, there should be some other decent media about them, right? Like a TV show, or games even? Well there was a 2-season show on Nickelodeon that was mostly decent, an potentially upcoming film, but only a couple of games. One was a platformer game, "Animorphs: Shattered Reality" for the PlayStation 1, released on September 6th, 2000. It was developer SingleTrac's final game before their studio closed down shortly after the game's release in the very same year. The game has 8 levels to go through, letting you pick between Jake, Marco, Rachel and Cassie, each with their own morphs to use in each level. Tobias and Ax aren't playable, and are only seen in cutscenes and the Game Over scene.

The game's story is that Visser Three, the Yeerk leader in an Andalite body with its own set of morphs, has created a device that can alter and shatter reality, to which the Animorphs need to collect pieces of a crystal to stop it and the Visser from destroying their reality, hence the game title. Each level has various sections of jumping, puzzles and morph combat ... Read the rest of this Review
Pinky and The Brain - The Master Plan
08-22-15 02:14 PM
Bonus: Okay try, but some things missing to keep it from being fully enjoyable
As a bonus, let's take a look at Pinky and the Brain: The Master Plan on Game Boy Advance, a platformer made in 2002 by Warthog Sweden again. This game was released in Europe only like "The Great Edgar Hunt" for the PS2, and never had an American release. When the title screen comes up, it's almost jarring to see and hear, as the theme is rather generic and doesn't even sound like Pinky and the Brain at all. There's no options either, so you can't tweak anything to make the game more comfy to play.
-
The plot this time is that the two lab mice are planning to take over the world again. They hear that a "weather space station" will be launching in a week, and Brain gets the idea to alter the computers of the three stations on the ground all over the world. Then by going into the station itself to alter the weather, he would bring the world to its knees. But then two other brown rats, Doofus and Roofus, see the plans drawn up by Pinky and the Brain, take it and decide to do it themselves. Now it's up to the two titular lab mice to get to the stations first and stop the other two from taking over the world before they do.
-
The cutscene and images here actually look pretty well done, they look like themselves and their dialogue is what you'd expect them to say. The other two mice, however, I just feel a bit unsure about.
-
Then the game goes into a tutorial, on a blueprint to explain the game, its powerups in the form of cheeses, etc. You start with 2 lives and you can collect lots of things like a blaster, cheese, speed up boots, pages, and each mouse's respective letters for help and to play minigames for bonuses. You can run, double jump, push and pull blocks, slide down angled ramps, etc. as well. The graphics are passable but again feel a bit off, like it's a bit too pixelated on the characters even for GBA standards. The control feels a bit slow too.
-
The music, again, is way off. Even though it sounds okay, it sounds noth... Read the rest of this Review
Animaniacs Game Pack
08-22-15 02:00 PM
Game Pack offers many time killers and one rather big and standout game that makes it worth it
Now for our main PC attraction, "Animaniacs: Game Pack" for the PC. Made in 1997 by Funnybone Productions, It's a collection of games rather than just one game. You get to hear a redone intro and explaining of the game, like the Genesis version but with their original voices as well, so that's pretty cool and it's done well too. After that, you get to the main menu.
-
There's 5 games to choose from in the menu in five different objects. First up is Prop Shop Drop. The cutscenes are actually well done and decently animated for the most part, you could tell they tried to make it flowing with the writing and animation.
-
The game begins and you control Yakko Warner riding the bike, collecting movie props. The goal is to collect as many as you can and get to the end without dying. There doesn't seem to be a minimum requirement of props to collect nor a time limit to beat the level, you just get bonuses on how fast you complete it. It's a top-down driving game and seems simple enough to control: Spacebar jumps and the arrow keys move you around. Hitting anything that doesn't have a glow around it takes away from your damage/health meter, to which you can only take five hits before gaming over. That's right, you have no lives here at all, you have to go through the game in one clean sweep. The music does sound a bit nice for MIDI though.
-
Each level throws more and more obstacles your way, sometimes the enemies move around, sometimes they toss projectiles at you from snowballs to full blown, giant fireballs, and some of them can hone in on you. The game thinks that challenge equals pack everything into the screen at once. By the later levels, you're pretty much jumping 24-7! The good news is that you can restore your health by collecting other vehicles, which can improve your speed too. Lose all your damage in another vehicle, then you go back to your bike, and if you take another hit past that then that's it, you're done. The controls are r... Read the rest of this Review
Animaniacs Splat Ball
08-22-15 01:47 PM
Neat distraction if stories take backseat to fun
Going to the PC, we have "Animaniacs: Splat Ball!", made by Southpeak in 1999. This is a bit different from the platformers before, but now in a good way. It's an overhead shooter, with the Warners vs. Ralph, Plotz and Scratchnsniff in a fight for the Splatball crown.
-
It's a more fun game than the last ones, no big plot or story this time around, just good ol' versus action. The goal here is to beat the different leagues with differing AI skill levels and game modes. The control is again slow, but it feels a bit better, and the graphics are nice and appealing. The music is really weird though, instead of quirky and silly, it's a bit orchestral and actiony instead. It's a bit interesting though, and makes things more intense.
-
The main objective, as the Warners, is to beat the other three on your opponent's team without getting splatted yourselves, along with other objectives and game modes like "Capture the Balloon". You can take up to 6 hits, then you switch to another Warner while they recover, to which all three play the same and can use the same powerups and weapons. If all three Warners are beaten, it's game over. The good news though, is that given enough time, the defeated Warner sibling can be revived to full health. But again, if all three are defeated before they can be revived, it's all over.
-
There's not really a whole lot to say, it's a fun game with some of the same voices from the show, you could even say it was like a predecessor to Splatoon in a way. If you like splatting Plotz, Scratchnsniff and Ralph in a good game of Splatball for a crown showing how awesome you are, then this is for you. It's one of the better, albeit shorter games than most, if you prefer a fun Animaniacs game with no plot this time. Multiplayer has some of the same game modes, but it's online and you can pick your characters, but that's about it.

There wasn't really too much to say, but this next one has a lot more to it.

Animaniacs - Lights, Camera Action!
08-22-15 01:40 PM
Final Animaniacs video game goes off with a whimper. What happened?
Next, the second Animaniacs game released after the show and movie, and the supposedly final one: "Animaniacs: Lights, Camera, Action", released on the Game Boy Advance on November 13th, 2005, and the DS version released one day later.

If you're keeping track, that means this game was released only ONE TO TWO MONTHS after "The Great Edgar Hunt", depending on what console version of it you got. And if that's not confusing enough as to why they'd do that, the DS version apparently released first on August 4th for the PAL format, but the Game Boy Advance version was released first in North America on August 12th. Scheduling, what's that?

This is [i][b]completely[/i][/b] different from the platformers before, this time it plays a bit like an isometric puzzle game. For a portable game, it definitely runs fine on both systems, but the gameplay is so drastically different from before, it's almost jarring if you've just gotten off of the retro games or even "The Great Edgar Hunt".
-
The plot here during this "Newsreel of the Stars" intro is that the WB studio is in major, 1 zillion-dollar debt thanks to the Warner Brothers' and Sister's destructive attitudes. Now Plotz needs to make 3 movies to get the money back, and gives Yakko, Wakko and Dot, along with Pinky and the Brain's help, one last chance to prove they can do it or else the Warners'll be locked in the water tower forever. Again. Because that totally stopped them before, right?
-
There's 15 levels here this time, a thankful refresher from the constant 4-5 levels before, and there's 5 parts to each movie for adventure, sci-fi and horror, each level played in that order. The game plays on an isometric plane this time as opposed to 2-D and 3-D, so we get something like a 2.5 D game here.
-
The game's graphics are passable, the two guys watching at the bottom of the screen is a nice touch(Along with Yakko lounging and looking up from the bottom screen on the DS ver... Read the rest of this Review
