Final
Fantasy 7
Okay
even though the game is old, you can really get into the
story than getting and the game play. To start things out,
you start off getting off the train using the main character
Cloud with a group of rebellion called Avalanche trying
to stop Shinra a corp company that is destroying the planet
with its reactors call "Mako Reactors" that sucks
the Mako from the planet. As the Avalanche destroyes their
reactors, a new threat has emerge to destroy the planet,
and his name is Sephorith. The gameplay is long but also
keeps you up for more or reveling more of the story like
what will happen next and stuff like that.Controls are easy
and easy to navigate your character around the world map
and regular map. Extremely well soundtrack, it goes well
with the background and the mood that the character is in.
Their battle system uses the "Mako Crystals" or
Materia for short that contains magics, summons, commands,
and even powerful power ups.

Final
Fantasy 8
It
is a time of war. Garbadia, a Global Superpower, declares
war on Dole, a neighbouring country. In Dole, the training
academy of Garden is home to two personalities - the ambitious
but hot-headed Seifer and the serious 'lone wolf', Squall
Leonhart - both equally at conflict with each other as their
own country is with Garbadia. To others, Squall appears
aloof and lacking in team spirit, whilst Seifer, a born
soldier, lacks the discipline and self-control that is so
evident in his rival. However, a chance encounter with the
free-spirited Rinoa Heartilly turns Squall's universe upside
down; having thrived on discipline, Squall finds Rinoa's
carefree attitude fascinating. He also begins to have dreams
in which he is Laguna Loire, a soldier from the Garbadian
army. In time he will discover that the fate of both himself
and the figure in his dreams are inexorably linked.
Meanwhile,
a manipulative sorceress continues to guide the hands of
the most powerful men in Garbadia. Squall and Seifer are
forced to work side by side in a mission to assassinate
the sorceress.

Ever
had the feeling at the stop light when a punk turn up
their stereo and glares at you getting ready to race your...
Dodge Caravan? which really can't handle such in real
life.

the highway of Tokyo and try to get the title of the fastest/best

Fantasy 10
In
Final Fantasy X, the main character, Tidus, is a star
player of blitzball, a full contact sport. After miraculously
surviving the destruction of his homeland, he awakens
among ruins and thereafter meets a young woman named Yuna.
As a summoner, Yuna must travel to distant temples and
learn the secret art of summoning aeons-powerful spirits
of yore, in order to defeat "Sin." Tidus learns
that a thousand years in the past, mankind lived in spectacular
cities and relied on machines for everything, until Sin
suddenly appeared and destroyed all civilization. Now,
people shun technology, and no one knows when "Sin"
will strike again. Final Fantasy X features a distinct
Asian influence, bringing a fresh feel to the characters,
music, settings and story.
Final
Fantasy X will also be the first in the series to feature
voiceovers for the characters. James Arnold Taylor ("A
Moment of Silence") and Hedy Burress ("Valentine")
will voice the main characters in the U.S. release of
Final Fantasy X. In addition to the game's voiceover dialogue
and fluid gameplay-to-full-motion-video transitions, Final
Fantasy X offers fully 3D environments that seamlessly
integrate real-time movement with battles, allowing yous
to walk around and engage in battles on the same field
map screen. Life-like, high-polygon, motion-captured characters
designed by Tetsuya Nomura (Final Fantasy VII, VIII, Parasite
Eve, Parasite Eve 2) bring realism to the screen. As seen
in previous Final Fantasy titles, you will be able to
enjoy new mini-games, such as mastering the sport of blitzball
and the Al Bhed language, plus engage in the all-new "Sphere
Grid" battle system.

Fantasy 9
Final
Fantasy IX is a story about an evil queen's desire to
gain world domination, and a group of bandits that try
to stop her. Brahne, the queen of Alexandria, is using
highly advanced magical weapons to menace neighboring
kingdoms. Dispatched by the king of a threatened nation,
an intrepid group of bandits sets out to stop the queen
from achieving her goal of world domination, only to find
that she is merely the cover for a far more sinister plot.
A powerful sorcerer named Kuja is the one responsible
for supplying Brahne with the magical weapons. What are
his goals? Why did he join forces with Brahne? Where do
his weapons come from? For the sake of mankind, the answers
must be uncovered before Kuja can execute his plan for
world destruction.
A
gripping storyline, unforgettable cast, unparalleled graphics
-sounds like the blueprint for yet another Final Fantasy.
Following in the decade-long tradition of the series,
Final Fantasy IX debuts with a brand new story and cast.
This time however, a request from the fans to return the
series to its roots yielded a title that is distinctly
different from its recent predecessors. Unlike many other
game franchises, Final Fantasy s a constantly evolving
series. While no two titles are ever alike, players can
be sure that the latest one benefits from what was learned
from developing its predecessor. As the last Final Fantasy
to appear on the PlayStation, Final Fantasy IX is the
heir to over ten years of game development. The result
of drawing upon this much experience and history, is a
title that blends both the successful elements of the
past such as a return to the fantasy roots, with the innovations
of the future, such as high quality computer graphics.
In the end, Squaresoft is pleased to announce that the
result is a title that serves as a fitting conclusion
to a decade of RPG excellence.

This
game is a continuation of the 2001 Tokyo Xtreme Racer
Zero which gave the player a chance to race against over
500 rivals in the highway of Tokyo. Now in TXR3 you can
race in 3 different highways of Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya.
This time around the gave will a total of 200 miles of
actual road model.
With
a modern feel of Japan, lets talk about the cars that
they have. No more funny names of cars, no more no brand
name rims, but this time uses real cars licensed from
Japanese, North American, and European car manufacturers.
The
game play this time is kind of the same as the last one
but you get more ability to customize your vehile and
you get a turbo gauage, water temp., and oil temp. gauge.
Those are your most important items on the racing screen.
The coolest thing that the folks at Genki add was the
weather affect. You can have snow/sleet, rain, or clear
skies. With the weather in play it can effect your drive
technique and the way your car can perform.

Now
as you all know that the Gran Turismo series have been
a hit around the world and has sold over 30 million units
around the world. Other than that the creator Kazunori
Yamauchi owns a $1 billion heritage and lots of known
from many motoring companies around the globe.
This
time around Yamauchi has recreated and build around using
the Playstation 2's engine to make the game as realistic
as to real. The game has over 150 cars from 38 manufacturers.
With more than 5000 to 6000 polygon into just one car the
game's model is incrediable.
As
it goes for the gameplay it is just like driving a real
car with the new logitech steering wheel. As you start
you must first purchase your very first car at the beginning.
With only $18,000 I would buy either a Mazda Miata or
a Toyota Trueno (AE86 for you Inital D fans) cause those
are the only good cars to start with. Now in order to
participate in the class races the game requires you to
pass a couple of tests (in the range of 8) in order to
race in that race. For example in order to race in a rally
race you would need a rally license. Same goes for the
other classes A, B, C, S. For the the graphics, as I stated
above it is incrediable. and as for sound it has a wide
selections of music to choose from.
In
conclusion this game is worth the $20 as of right now, you
can probably find it cheaper used or at a Wal- Mart or something
like that. It is fun and sometimes additive if you are really
into cars, but other than that you can play it for awhile
and wait for the next generation of Grand Turismo; Grand
Turismo 4.

Need
for Speed Underground
OH
boy another game review even though no one really cares
but hey its the only thing I can update my site for now
so here goes I finally beat this game and well...it's awsome
but it could do a better ending though.
With
all the parts available to you (not all until you unlock
them) can customize almost anything on the ride that you
have. From change the ECU fuel management system to the
under glow of your car. The coolest feature of the game
is that you can customize your own decal and vinyl with
unlimited customization. Also the game brings the Japanese
style drifting to the game (not down hill drift though)
with a whole new concept of play.
As
for graphics goes it can match up to any racing that is
out right now even Gran Turismo 3. And when you use the
NOS it really makes you feel like you are going really
fast and gives you the "Need for Speed". But
like I've said above if they could make the story much
better because in the begining it seems that there was
a story involve here but then it just drifts off with
you trying to be the fastest and win more and more parts.
But other than that this game is a must buy!
