Monkey goodness with no mess!

Sat, 11 Sep 2004 23:00:19 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Let's get this clear: I expect all of you PS2 owners to buy this game. Sure, I'll go over the basics of a videogame review, but I want to focus on why this game is worth playing. I tend to buy games, and then let them sit on the shelf...

Respectable air combat formula ruined by foolish changes

Sun, 8 Feb 2004 22:56:31 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Air Force Delta was a fun launch title for the Dreamcast. I enjoyed its arcade style, selection of cool fighters, and missions. Years later, after a hopefully temporary debt-equity swap with a friend, I am able to clean the skies and ground once again...

Future Computers: Low cost, though also low selection.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Plot:

A mob tough guy (Barry the Blade Muldanno) murders a very important senator. His lawyer kills himself and two boys witness it. One goes into shock and is hospitalized; the other learns secrets about the murder. The FBI wants those...

It's the Simpsons, but where is the Road Rage? Oh, we get LOAD RAGE instead!

Sun, 9 Dec 2001 19:40:32 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - It was a Friday afternoon, and I needed another Movie Gallery rental, but I didn't have a free rental coupon this time (like I did with Twisted Metal: Black). I looked over the PlayStation 2 rentals. It was going to be Onimusha or The Simpsons Road Rage...

Nyko Game Switch: Marketing 101: Making money off of unsuspecting customers with cheap merchandise.

Sat, 8 Dec 2001 21:30:17 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - The Nyko R/F box came with a Dreamcast that I rented from Movie Gallery about a week or two before I bought my Dreamcast (which was back in 2000). Fortunately, it also came with Sega’s A/V cables (the red, white and yellow RCA jacks), and I was able to...

Everything you need, nothing that you won't ever use

Sun, 25 Nov 2001 16:08:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - We had an old VCR from sometime in the 80's. Manual tracking, big, slow, difficult to operate. After about 10 years, you really can't expect it to work very well, and it didn't. White static lines would suddenly appear on the TV, and someone would have...

For $20 and a free USB cable, the BJC-2110 shines.

Sat, 24 Nov 2001 19:41:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - This printer was part of an Earthlink deal with my brother, which equaled out to be $25 for this printer and a flatbed scanner. I got the printer because I needed one for my computer and he plays my Grand Theft Auto 3 on PS2 almost non-stop. Seems to be...

Demented car combat, minus the car combat.

Fri, 23 Nov 2001 21:50:02 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - After reading many highly favorable reviews for Twisted Metal: Black (TM: B), I went into Movie Gallery with a free game rental coupon in hand. Spy Hunter was still checked out, so I eventually grabbed the TM: B case and brought the game home. Powering...

The Dreamcast must be casting a dream, because things usually don’t look this great!

Tue, 18 Sep 2001 17:41:18 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - I could go pretty deep into the politics of the Dreamcast. Why it is failing in the market place is a mystery to me. Excellent games, good hardware design, internet gaming and access, and so on... but why are the masses leaving it for dead? It is the...

Small Town Social Simulator 64 ver. 0.9: Fun, but rough around the edges

Sun, 16 Sep 2001 20:58:30 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Harvest Moon 64 is the best RPG on the N64... well farming RPG I should say. Although the senses may not be overly stimulated by this game, which lacks excellent graphics and sound effects, this game will stimulate your heart. (In fact, this game...

Brand Name Food Products: Myojo Chukazanmai ramen: 'Soup noodles with pork teriyaki broth and soysauce'

Fri, 17 Aug 2001 19:54:07 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - I found these while looking through the aisles of a Korean owned Asian grocery store in Savannah, Han Me, which I occasionally visit. They have a large selection of well, ...Asian groceries. No surprise there, though the large jar of very tiny shrimp was...

OPTImum value, though QUESTion whether 14" is large enough.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - I use this monitor at work, while surfing the internet, or printing out the weather forecast (OK, OK… I'm the DJ and weatherman at the local radio station on Sundays… you found out my main part-time occupation).

This monitor has a 14" (13.2"...

Is your DVD player bored? Then this will give it a great workout!

Thu, 26 Jul 2001 13:57:39 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - This came out right around the time when the DVD format was just being discovered (1996). About 1 year later, our first computer, a Sony Vaio PCV-90, included 3 or so demo videos in Vaio Space. One was the intro to Odyssey into The Minds Eye.

How Della got her buddy back!

Thu, 26 Jul 2001 13:57:37 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - The Curse of Camp Cold Lake is one of R. L. Stein's later books in his Goosebumps series, coming in as #56. I think that he must have matured some as a writer since, one of his first books, The Ghost Next Door (which is #10). I say that because, in The...

The ghost -of a good book- from next door?

Tue, 24 Jul 2001 14:05:54 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - I literally got this book from next door. After reading it several years ago, along with many other books by R.L. Stine from the Goosebumps series, I left it (along with the others) in my bookcase. Well, having moved into our new house, I just yesterday...

This game reeks of soiled monkeys. Keep your money.

Sat, 21 Jul 2001 14:19:50 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Out of a whopping total of 5 games for the SNES that we owned, 3 were Donkey Kong Country. Yes, we had Donkey Kong Country 1, 2, and 3. They were charming and fun to play. They gave us quite a few laughs. We truly enjoyed them, and couldn't wait...

Sun, 1 Jul 2001 15:23:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - I bought this several years ago during the amazon.com Refer a Friend program. Get $5, refer a friend, get $5 more dollars. I was really interested in China then, and I was browsing through Amazon's collection of tapes (because they were cheaper than CDs...

Ms. Pac-Man, you puzzle me! Dreamcast Version

Tue, 19 Jun 2001 01:39:15 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - It's been a long time since Ms. Pac-Man has seen any new gaming action. While she has been romping around in the same arcade game since the early 80's on various systems, this is the first time that she has been given a new occupation. Well, not entirely...

Car Commercials, Part 2: Daewoo "Affordable Elegance" (Part 1, Kia included)

Thu, 14 Jun 2001 18:30:10 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - We see car commercials all of the time. Sometimes we ignore them, sometimes we watch them because we are too lazy to pick up the remote (Is it just me, or does it almost always end up far a way from where you are sitting when you need it most?), and...

'PAC'ed full of arcade goodness

Thu, 14 Jun 2001 00:55:22 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Namco Museum contains Pac-Man, Ms. Pac-Man, Dig Dug, Pole Position, Galaga, and Galaxian. Let's see, 6 classic arcade games for about $30. That averages out to about $5 a game. I'm sure that you've spent at least $5 on one of these games, and if you buy...

Where's the Beef?

Tue, 12 Jun 2001 18:21:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Well, the beef should usually be in the burgers, but after reading a news article, the beef is actually in the fries. Yes, the fries. It turns out, America's #1 ranked french fry is flavored with beef based seasoning. India was in an uproar, but...

LarGe features, LarGe savings, LarGe warranty, LG all the way!

Tue, 12 Jun 2001 14:22:15 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - We bought our LG Flatron 795FT Plus last November for our newly purchased computer. With a maximum budget of $300, I remembered reading an advertisement for the LG Flatron in a computer magazine. LG, short for Lucky-Goldstar, makes just about...

Crazy Arrow 2 oh... I mean Crazy Taxi 2... yeah that's it. (Updated)

Mon, 11 Jun 2001 16:48:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author diamion - Crazy Taxi 2 is mostly the same as Crazy Taxi 1 as in the point behind playing the game. However, several things will leave a slightly different, and off taste in your mouth. I think that it might have something to do with the game's location, New York...
