Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: Oogie's Revenge - PS2

This game is a MASTERPIECE!!!

As a huge fan of the film I long awaited the day that a NBC game would come out, but at the same time I was fearful that whoever picked it up would ruin it. We got a glimpse in Kingdom Hearts which was cool, but it left me wanting. This game, is everything that I could have hoped for and more. It was definately worth the 12 years we waited for it. The game is an actual sequel to the film, which is very very cool. The graphics are GORGEOUS. Not like most-beautiful-girl-you've-ever-seen gorgeous, but... about 300 times that. I'm serious here. You have to see it to believe that it's even a game. It's like playing the film. The soundtrack is also phenomonal. Original Elfman score that during boss battles has lyrics that follow the same tunes as the original NBC beauties, but have been changed to pertain to what's going on in the game at time. Costume changes to Pumpkin King, and Santy Jack, are a nice touch, and all of your favorite characters are back, plus a revamped oogie-boogie that is straight out of resident evil. I cannot stress enough how much everyone on earth needs this game. If you are a fan of the film, then you need like... 7 maybe 8 copies. The ONLY drawback for me is the limited number of combat moves, and Jack saying "SOUL ROBBER!" every time you press triangle. Which is alot. It's a tad annoying, but doesn't detract much from a game that is too good to be played in my filthy bedroom but rather belongs in a museum.

Wario Ware Inc.: Mega Microgame$ - GBA

Totally rad

Man, this game is so good, it makes me fart. The characters are WAY cooler than you, and it is so super fun and fast. Like 170 or something mini-games all packed into one game, and they all hit you super fast one after the other. Incredibly simple controls, and the way the game is set- up make it so that you can pick it up and play it for 3 minutes while your poopin' or you could lay back in your mom and dad's bed, and play it for hours on end, and get a kick out of it either way. It's super great, and totally fun. I'm not being sarcastic. The replay value is INFINITE, cause it's got variety out the peach-pits, and all of the games are done in different art styles. Makes them look more like each one was designed by a different artist than by game makers. A totally awesome game, with loads of old nintendo trivia in there just so us old- schoolers can get all pasty over it. I seriously recommend this to anyone with a brain.

Guilty Gear X Advance Edition - GBA

Guilty Gear X Advance Edition [ Game Boy Advance ]

A really good looking game with very cool characters. A bit too easy, and the sound is HORRIBLE, but you can put on headphones and listen to The Unicorns, and it's way better then. The custom color creation is VERY VERY cool, and the control is smooth as buttah. A really good game to have for the GBA if you can get a good deal on it.

Katamari Damacy - PS2

A must for collector's of strange games.

Strange as it may be, this game is actually very, very good. The first thing you will notice (Other than the intro that makes you feel like you just ate about seven or eight caps) is the music. This game has one of the most original, as well as most enjoyable, soundtracks of any game you will hear, EVER as long as you both shall live. It is MIND-BLOWING. The songs in the game, some hilarious, some beautiful, some both, will be with you for weeks after playing. That out of the way... The graphics are HORRIBLE, but it's almost like... Forrest Gump. No one would've liked him if he hadn't been an idiot... The terrible graphics in this game give it a very specific charm, and style, and somehow add more character to it, and really take away nothing. The concept of the game... rolling everything on Earth into balls to be made into stars because your dad, the King of All Cosmos, took some mushrooms, started dancing around space, and broke them all, and has charged you with the task of re-populating the night sky... is a brilliant concept indeed. This game is VERY fun, VERY addictive, and the game keeps track of everything you roll up from paper-clips to the country of Nigeria, in a scrap-book of sorts, and lets you know which objects are rare, (like the naked guy living in a peach) adding alot to the replay value, cause you always want to have your pages filled. There is a two player mode that's nothing to write home about, but if you want a game that you can take to a friends house when they've been drinking or smoking and say "Hey, check this out." and they'll say "..." in stunned disbelief, then this is a super-fun title to pick up. A really cool thing to have in your collection to make your girlfriend hate it even more.
