Outrun is a mid 80's driving game. You would drive your sports car throughout several levels attempting to get to the finish before time runs out. At each checkpoint, you are given more time to make it to the finish, but if you don't time it just right (i.e. crashing or staying in the wrong gear) you WILL run out of time. Then its game over for you.

"Hey...there isn't any graphics...this game has gotta suck!!!!!!" I hear that comment almost anytime I play Zork on my laptop. Well I am here to say that you don't need graphics and sound to make a great game.

Graphics: The game is text based, there are NO graphics but you are supposed to picture the scene in your mind. Sometimes the imagination can be the best graphics of all.

In KQ VI, many things were changed and enhanced over KQ 5. First, they used actual actors instead of people from the sierra offices, which made the dialog worth listening to. However, I personally liked the original King Graham voice actor.

Probably should go ahead and do this...I've already done a few other blogs and didn't introduce myself.

I'm Chris, and I live in Glenville, WV during school, and Huntington during the summer. I am a music ed major and a history minor.

I have been gaming since 1985 when my parents bought an NES for themselves...yet it didn't last long in their hands.

I thought I would start posting my old game reviews. This one from back in 2002

NINJA GAIDEN SHADOW

An interesting twist to the Ninja Gaiden series

First off before you think that this is a sequel to the NES games, it isn't. Natsume originally programed this game to be a shadow of the ninja hand-held game. Then Tecmo bought the rights to the game, changed it around and called it Ninja Gaiden "Shadow".

Just a quick blog to say I finally got my name to work!

I can't wait to really look through the site...it looks really awesome!

great to see it got the update!
