Mar 12th, 2007 at 14:53:58 - Ice Climber (PC) |
This game is one of the games that was demonstrated in by breakout session. This game is a strategy game. The point of the game is to make your way up the steps to the top of the mountain. This is harder than it appears because there are avalanches and ice spears that will kill you on your way up if you do not choose the correct path. This game has three different levels. The first level the main character needs to make his way up to the top of the mountain in order to find his wife. This transitions into the second level where the mountain climber again has to find his way to the top. In this level his goal is to get his dog. In the final level the point of the game is to reach the top of the mountain in order to reach the mountain climbers son. At this point once you reach the top of the mountain you have successfully beaten the game.

This is a great game that has been redone many times. The game first appeared on Nintendo 64. The double dash for turned Mario Kart into a team game with a driver and shooter. This gives the game double action. Each player has different responsibilities which ultimately lead the team to winning or losing.
This game is fun but it is not that much of an improvement on the other Mario Kart games. This is because the double dash feature is misleading. It is not as cool as you would think. This is because the person who is shooting has very minimal responsibilities. The makers should have somehow made it so there are equal responsibilities with the team members.
The gameplay is very finely tuned so that it is easy to play. The controls are precise but at the same time not too touchy. This makes it so that the turning is very appropriate and works smoothly. The shooting is not that accurate. This is one of the things that should be improved upon. The shooter should be able to accurately aim his shot.

I played Mario Double Dash with three other people. We played the racing mode. We did it so that there were two teams of two. I was the driver on my team. The game is very fun with many different levels to choose from. Furthermore, there are tons of characters and carts that you can choose.
I found this game to be fun because of all these options. The controls are pretty easy and it is pretty simple to control the cart effectively.
The graphics in this game are similar to most of the Mario type genre. There are many cartoon type images and characters. The game kind of reminds me of Super Smash Brothers because of the wide variety of different characters that have been taken from other Nintendo games.
If you are the driver, the goal of the game is to go as fast as you can through the course. Also, you need to try to get as many items for your shooter teammate.
You have to make sure that you always keep your shooter armed. If you pick up two items, you must transfer one of the items back to the shooter once they shoot the first item. All in all, this game has a very simple concept that is still very fun.

The second time I played Goldeneye 007 I played the multiplayer with a friend. We played so that it was him and I vs. two bots. I found the multiplayer to be just as fun as the campaign mode.
One of the few problems I have with this game is the bots. The bots seem to be too predictable and they are easy to kill. I think they should be made so that they are smarter which would therefore make it easier to kill.
I liked the fact how there is so many different guns that you can play with. This gives the game variation which allows the player to feel like they are in total control.
While I was playing it didn't seem like the game took into account where a shot landed. It seemed that if a shot was taken in the head or foot it would do the same damage. I don't know if this is because of the era or it just wasn't included in the game. If this aspect were included the player would be able to use more strategy. They could not kill someone by just shooting them in the foot. All in all I give this game a 9 out of 10.
