rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - My brother recently introduced me to the weird world of Meg Lee Chin, and her album "Piece and Love", a unique cross-breed of Techno, Electronica, and Rap. Meg Lee Chin, though Asian, has a wonderful English accent, which is apparent in the...

F-Zero-X: Don't Judge This Book By It's Cover

Sat, 8 Jan 2000 00:37:51 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - When F-Zero was released, it got a lot of griping for it's simplistic graphics. I mentioned it to my friend, and I think his exact words were "Who cares? All the developer cared about was it's frame rate". Blasphemy. Let's not forget that this...

Who Ever Thought Killing Aliens Could Be So. . . Mediocre?

Sat, 8 Jan 2000 00:26:23 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - Like "Blast Corps", "Body Harvest" is a game that takes a simple formula and runs it into the ground. Aliens are attacking. Constantly. Your job? Single-handedly kill them all. However, the main attraction of "Body Harvest"...

Blast Corps: Simple Idea, Simple Game.

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - So, a truck full of nuclear explosives is out of control, and touching the slightest thing may make it explode. Your job? Blow up anything that is in it's way, using a wide variety of different vehicles. But is it fun? Well, at first it is, but soon...

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 23:45:57 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - When I rented 1080 Snowboarding, I didn't know what to expect. The game didn't have a lot of courses, or a lot of characters, and only had two-player support. But this left one nagging question in the back of my mind: Why did I like it so damn much?

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - When I bought "Pinkerton", Weezer's second album, I didn't really know what to expect. After all, their first CD was perfection; how could this possibly stand up to their flawless record?

Then I sat down and listened to it. At first...

A Worthy Sequel

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - What did Radiohead do after they achieved fame and fortune with their first album, "Pablo Honey"? They went out and topped themselves, proving to all the naysayers that they weren't a one hit wonder.

"The Bends", a CD that...

Marabou Stork Nightmares Will Leave You Wondering 'Huh?'

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 02:26:33 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - Wuw, what is with this book? If you thought Irvine Welsh's previous books were weird, wait until you read this one? Staring a man who spends the entire book in a coma, on varying levels of conscienceness, this book will leave you feeling uneasy, but...

Fri, 7 Jan 2000 02:00:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author gunshy - When a person is allowed to read a compilation of short stories by an author, they are really allowed to see the creativity of the author. This was the first thing that stuck out to me when I read "The Acid House". With 21 stories, and a...
