 -Marvel vs Capcom 2 (my save got deleted so I have to get everything all over again)



One Piece owns!

Have fun unlocking everything again. Muahahahaha! If it was for the DC, you could easily download one... either directly or via a memory unit that has a link cable.

One Piece? Hmm, was that the silly one with the pirates? Never played the games, but the anime struck me as, umm, intended for a younger age group?

			The manga is pretty awesome though. But I'm a sucker for anything with pirates.

Will you accept 3 word reviews?

If so, here are my reviews for the above two games:

Grandia II (PC) - Wow,... cool... effects!... :thumbs-up:

Virtua Tennis (PC) - Fun fun fun!

Yeah, but nobody I know has everything unlocked. It was always me who was that guy heh heh.

One Piece is great for everybody. The games are awesome! My fav games for GC are those two OP games. You should look into the manga or the episodes. Even though sadly it just got purchased for US release. So no more fan subs from Kaizoku Fansubs. The manga is all over the places translated so check it out.

I actually meant download from the internet. As for One Piece, I drew my conclusion after watching the first several episodes. I decided I didn't really want to see any more. I have not read the manga, nor played the games, which is why I didn't have any thoughts on them.

it290: Think "I'll take your word for it." Something along those lines.

			No, I understand what you're saying, I just don't understand the implication, arr.

			Im playing tony hawk underground THe grapihics are much improved over part 4 (this game is the best thing ive ever seen while playing in 720p ,) the gameplay and music arnt as i see less bonus/power up type things and less freedom to choose levels and missions . Theres a less familiar soundtrack with many bands Ive never even heard of ...but more songs to choose from . Part 4 soundtrack magically was what I had on my computers playlist 2+ years ago . On the plus side the storyline is slightley more compelling and has more than just skateboarding . Id would have never thought id be playing a skateboarding game as all the other games and past boards games failed to draw me in . I give it a 9/10 sorry im reviewing a 5 month old game underground 2 is allready out .

I really disliked Sonic Adventure.

Level design was really disappointing, everything felt unbalanced and like it was thrown together. The "adventure" ascept felt really out of place, and I really hated how there was little to no gameplay in some levels (you hardly ever got to actually do something other than push foward in Emerald Beach - and during the whole wahle scene you don't really have to push *any* buttom), and when there was some actual gameplay, it was either badly executed or plain buggy (the ruins level anyone?). The whole game feels like a prototype.

The only levels I really enjoyed playing were the Wind Mountain (even if it is way too short) and the final battle against Perfect Chaos.

Wrapping up, SA felt cheesy and cheap for me, and even the SMS Sonic games had better level design. I only played the DX demo, but Emeral Coast seemed the *very same* level. Camera still got stuck in some places, the whale part is still a simple cutscene and the only difference I saw were some higher res textures and the characters had more polygons to them.

SA2, on the other hand, was plain awesome. All levels well done (with the expection of Rouge levels' - they all had some sort of annoyance, design flaw or small bugs), most of them being fun to play over and over again, they implemented multiply paths (but there could be more), camera hardly got in the way, and gameplay elements actually worked properly.

If SH takes the same approach as SA2, maybe I'll like it.

You wish. It's still worth renting, though.

			Just started up Illusion of Gaia for SNES...pretty decent so far. Hopefully it'll get a lil more involved though, the story is kinda weak so far. It's Enix so I have faith...
