Project Justice review by Ted

Hey folks; I'm here to review Project Justice for the Sega Dreamcast, which is also known as "Rival Schools 2"; it's a 3-D fighting game that is very neat and somewhat unique; it's team-up attacks were an original idea, and the storyline concept was a bit different. It's one of Capcom's more unusual titles, but it's definitely worth playing, so I'll give it an 8/10, saying that some challenges are rather ridiculous, but the game is other than that, very well done.
If you want more information on this game, I suggest checking out the Wikipedia; it has plenty of useful information, despite the fact that pretty much anyone can post up anything, except that if it's incorrect, they'll either remove or edit things.
But it does have similarities to Street Fighter. For example:
  • Batsu, the game's primary protagonist, is basically a younger, high school Ryu who wears his school uniform, rather than a Gi.
  • Hyo is a bit similar to Sagat, though he's more of the swordsman type, and he never had a grude for any "hero" character in the game, in the first place.
  • Kurow, the main antagonist of the game, is kind of a mastermind, like M.Bison, but has a pair of gloves with claws on them,, which may remind you of Vega, except that Vega has only one claw, which is not built into a glove.

Power Stone 2 review by Ted

Hey folks; I got info on Power Stone 2, a truly epic title for the Sega Dreamcast. To explain it, it's rather neat; the idea is to fight using items and collecting the power stones, in order to access the powerful (yet temporary) transformation in battle, but however, the only flaw is the lack of the combo system. Other than that, it's very well done, AND up to 4 players can play. Not to mention that it's got neat backgrounds and very fun game play! It's concept was similar to that of the first "Power Stone", but it's a bit different. If you want to find it, it's for the Dreamcast. If you own a PSP however, you can get the "Power Stone Collection", which contains enhanced remakes of both games! So, I'll give the Dreamcast version an 8/10, saying that it could have been better, if only that version had the two secret characters from the first Power Stone, as at least downloadable content.

Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 review by Ted

Hey, folks; I'm back! And I got a review for you; a review on Marvel Vs. Capcom 2; a game that was made during the last two video game generations, but it still hasn't lost it's charm! I've been playing it on my Dreamcast, and all I have to say is, it's AWESOME! It's soundtrack isn't exactly anything phenomenal, in my opinion, but it's certainly better than nothing. Not to mention that the backgrounds are beautifully well done, and the total of 52 playable characters; INCREDIBLE! But then again, the game had it's PS2 and Xbox releases, and sadly, it was rather overpriced. But I'll have to give it a 9/10, saying that the game is just something gamers have to try out, if they are unable to play Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, due to lack of PS3 or Xbox 360.

Naruto: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! 4 (Review by Ted)

Platform: Gamecube
Rating: (unreleased, in the United States)
----
In response to a very big mistake that the makers of "Naruto: Clash of the Revolution" that a company had made, I strongly suggest that instead, there should be a special wiiware version of THIS FIGHTING GAME! Forget all of those Wii fighting games, this one's incredible! I mean, "Naruto: Clash of the Ninja Revolution 3" may contain 40 characters, but this game contains 42! So, if you are able to obtain a converter device with a gamecube, and this game, you are lucky! Why? Well, it is Japan that had defined video game entertainment. So, I don't understand why some games aren't released in the United States, which is a real pain.
To be honest, this is probably THE BEST gamecube exclusive fighting game, out there!

Ted's Rating: 9/10

Naruto: Clash of the Ninja Revolution (Review by Ted)

Platform: Wii
Rating: T
---
Hello, I am here to talk about the worst anime-based game I've ever played. What better than "Naruto: Clash of the Ninja Revolution"? Well, you see, the controls with the Wii Remote and Nunckuck are horrible, (story mode requires that) and story mode is just plain ridiculous. So, unless you have some sort of cheat device to unlock absolutely EVERYTHING in the game, I strongly suggest that you DON'T BUY THIS GAME!

My rating: 1/10

Nights:Journey of Dreams review by Ted

Hello, I honestly think that Nights:Journey of Dreams turned out rather questionable. Because first of all, the second boss of the game is too frustrating! Which is why to avoid stress, I decided to stop playing it. And besides which, I didn't think it was anything special. But I did have a bit of fun with it, when I first got it. But since it turned out questionable, it had me thinking, "Why didn't Sega just release the first title for the Wii for Virtual Console instead, along with other video games made for the Sega Saturn?!? But it's not exactly a poor game. So, for effort, I'll give it a 5/10, saying that the "bothersome controls" do not ruin the game play, though the second boss was rather ridiculously frustrating and I don't know how to beat him. So, I might as well look at a walkthrough. Otherwise, I'll just go through pointless stress again. (Knuckles Chaotix is better than this game!)

Super Smash Bros. Brawl review by Ted

What I am talking about is none other than an extremely well done fighting game for Wii! What other than "Super Smash Bros. Brawl"? It's rather simple, yet addictive. Up to 4 players can play, at once!
There's a good amount of playable characters, in this game. And a good amount of stages to battle in, as well! But the stage editor, however, is kind of lame and obsolete. It won't even let you insert your own graphics or music, to it! Thankfully, there are people that are doing homebrew stages, which is an awesome idea!
Story Mode however, isn't too long, which is a good thing. Because it took me about 3 days to finish it. And once you beat story mode, you can unlock Sonic the Hedgehog, Sega's mascot and a seriously well done video game character! To be honest, he's the character I am best with, in this game. But I'm also good with Kirby, who is my best character in the two previous "Super Smash Bros." titles.
This is a seriously good video game! So, I'll give it a 9/10, saying that the 50 bucks is so worth it! When it comes to video games, here's my suggestion; Never pay more than $49.99 for a video game!
