Napster: Rest In Cyber Space

Fri, 24 Aug 2001 22:45:34 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Napster, the name brings admiration and countless smiles to teenagers across the country. The name brings hatred and nightmares to the RIAA and musicians. How can one product so sharply divide communities? And what is the state of Napster today?

Unreal Tournament for Windows: Frag-a-licious

Tue, 7 Aug 2001 18:50:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - I recently bought Unreal Tournament for $20 at an Office Depot, and despite that this game came out a while ago I found it to be worth every penny. It provides week of entertainment easily, if not months if you get really hooked. It does have its flaws...

Mon, 6 Aug 2001 16:25:53 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Ok, first of all I don’t know if banner killers are illegal, so if anyone knows for sure then add a comment. I’d like to know. Anyway, Bluelight is K-Mart’s free Internet service that is supposed to rival NetZero. It requires no credit card but you must...

Nyko Worm Light (GBA): Not Bad, Not Bad

Mon, 6 Aug 2001 15:36:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - I bought the Worm Light Plus for $10 to make my GBA screen easier to see in dimly lit rooms.

Deus Ex For Windows: say hello to my little friend

Sat, 4 Aug 2001 02:15:50 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Deus Ex is a deeply involving first person shooter that is smart and fresh instead of being redundant and rehash. I think Warren Spector, who produced the game, knew we were all sick of Quake and Doom clones and needed a smart and witty shooter that...

Thu, 2 Aug 2001 04:19:45 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Tony Hawk backslides back to the PC for another great skateboarding game that will eat up your life for a few months.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Well, THPS2 has finally come to the Game Boy Advance, after much hype. Does the game live up to all the hype?

The all American portal to Hell

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 18:23:13 GMT

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - If ever there was hell of earth, it would be at your local McDonald’s. Indeed, what could possibly be more vile, more grossly incompetent than a McDonald’s? Nothing, NOTHING dare I say!! When you first step foot inside this $40 sweatshop-built,...

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 16:54:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - If you've played Rayman before, then you already know exactly what to expect. If you haven't, Rayman is a standard side-scrolling adventure game starring a limbless hero with a french accent. The plot of all Rayman games are decidedly simple, and in this...

ATI Radeon 64MB DDR: A Great Alternative To GeForce Cards

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 16:30:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - ATI has never been taken seriously by gamers for their video cards. They were bug ridden and always many steps behind nVidia's offerings. So when the ATI Radeon came out most people didn't look twice. Why would they, with their past, and the fact that a...

Rock Solid Computer

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 01:05:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Before I start my review of my HP 8776c, let me just point out something to previous reviewers who have said the computer crashes.

WinAmp: Winamp = good

Tue, 31 Jul 2001 00:44:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author shadowmcshadow - Winamp has been the premiere mp3 player for many years, and for good reason. It plays mp3s flawlessly and only does that. It won't bog you down with endless options and screens, it just plays mp3s. When you first get Winamp, you might have the option of...
