Our current review(s);

N64:

Gauntlet Legends- 

I am in love with this game! It's got great graphics, considering it's for the N64. It's offers great playability for people who know what they're doing or are just button mashing. You get to kill these creepy little creatures, or some scary big ones, like the first boss; the dragon. Also, sometimes death will come out of a chest and start following you! NO! I DON'T WANT TO DIE! It was so scary at first, but you just needed a potion to get rid of it. The levels also grow with your character, which is a major plus, you can keep going back to a level you've already beaten to get more life, gold and experience. The only downfalls are that you can't switch the camera angel which makes it very hard to see what's around you, and that it's very hard to keep your health to the max because it costs 100gold for 100 health points. To put that in perspective, by level 13 my character had only around 730/1630 health points. Overall, I like this game, and I  give it a 4/5 stars.

Best price to buy; $14.89 at; The Music Recyclery or search Froogle

NDS;

Urbs; Sims in the City;

This game is just great if you're someone lacking a life, much like myself. It's Fun to run around making everyone like you-or hate you- but you can only do that for so long before getting bored. The whole game you have to follow a plot-line, which is fine for most rpgs, but I'd rather just be able to roam the full map from the beginning of the game. In fact, you can't get the most fun features of the game, i.e. the pets, until you've finished most of the game, and even then you can't feed the pets, and there's nothing to do with them when you take them for a walk. The only thing you CAN do with pets is the pet show, and "talk" to them, besides the last chapter where you play as your pet and save Urbania. That by far was the most entertaining part of the game. Overall, this game got old fast, so I can only give it 3/5 stars.

Nintendogs;

Who ever thought carrying around a virtual pet could be so addicting? Well, the makers of TamigatchiŠ did, as well as the makers of Nintendogs. The little virtual puppies have the cutest little faces and are quite irresistible. Sure, you have to feed and groom them, but if you don't the worst that could happen is that they run away, but don't worry! They'll come back, and may even bring you a present. Sure, when you walk them, it may be a little gross when they poo, but when you touch it with your stylus, it becomes "the amazing flying poop", soaring into the virtual paper bag like a feather from the sky! You can have up to seven dogs at a time (four in the dog hotel, three at home), which is great for any aspiring dog trainers, or dog lovers! Also, you can carry them around with you in tag mode, and when they find someone else nearby, they'll begin to bark! There are countless tricks to teach them, house layouts to buy, toys and items to collect, and dog shows galore, you could play this game for days on end! I couldn't help but to give 5/5 stars.
