    By thicknick | Review Date: Jun 27, 2006 | PS2

    Unfortunately, just not that great of a game.

    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was an average-at-best attempt to make controversial buzz, which Rockstar games has made a name for itself doing. The truth of the matter is that the "story" the game offers are just a weak... Read Full Review

    WarioWare: Touched!

    By thicknick | Review Date: Mar 20, 2007 | DS

    Warioware Tocuched! is a great game to devote yourself to in small bursts.

    People give this Warioware title a bad reputation because it is so touch-screen-intensive. Yeah, it is. It has its low points too, to be sure. Actually, I thought the lowest point was trying to unlock all of Mike the ... Read Full Review

    Quickly and surely dethrones UMK3 as the ultimate, polished, tournament fighter MK game.

    I've been playing since I got it and it's everything I hoped. I had to admit at first I tried to prepare myself for some disappointment, but the disappointment has never had a chance or reason to set in! The game is perf... Read Full Review

    If you've played the Ocarina of Time, you've played Twilight Princess.

    First, I'd like to start off with the good things about this game, and don't get me wrong, there are many. Good: -The graphics... OK they were ported from GC, but they still look fresh and are a definite improvement ... Read Full Review

    Not terrible, at least I can play as Iron Man :)

    This game wasn't really a great fighting game... Many of the characters skill sets are too similar, and some are so different that you encounter some very noticeable unbalanced situations. Also, the game is almost too ... Read Full Review

    My opinion: Best console RPG ever, stands the test of time even in the next NEXT generation

    I'm going to break this review down into several different categories: 1. Story - This is the number one issue many people have with this game. While SoM and Seiken Densetsu 3 were completely story-driven and full of ... Read Full Review

    By thicknick | Review Date: Mar 24, 2008 | SNES

    Really really really fun and addicting... a personal favorite...

    Earthbound is a charming tale of the adventure of the now-famous character Ness (SSB and SSBM) back in his early days (still has last appearance in America). So he's a boy, a young teenaged boy. Probably like 15ish giv... Read Full Review

    Sorry Cloud fans, but 6 is better than 7

    Final Fantasy 6 is one of the best RPG's ever as far as I'm concerned and certainly my favorite of every Final Fantasy game I've played (all of them except for 11). It has a great, in depth story that, while perhaps a f... Read Full Review

    By thicknick | Review Date: May 20, 2006 | PC

    Fallout Tactics is one of the most unique and addicting strategy games to date.

    Fallout Tactics is great for a few different reasons... It's set in the fallout universe, so its already got that going for it, but it also allows you to choose between a real time system (which i generally play in but g... Read Full Review

    An appropriately updated revisitation of a time-honored classic.

    Metroid Zero mission is an excellent game for anyone with a GBA and a few spare hours. Like most Metroid platformers, it is a little on the short side for my taste, but it does its job and it does it well in the time al... Read Full Review
