Mortal Kombat II

Type: Fighting

Description: The most impressive fighter of '93 returns with beafed up graphics, more characters, moves, and fatalities than the average person can handle...

+ : Great graphics, and very good sound effects, all the way from the sounds of special moves, to the screaming of people being thrown into the pit. The story part in the beginning resembles the arcade's EXACTLY. Plenty of blood and arcade action...a perfect arcade port..
- : music is the same as the Genesis version.
RATING :

Tempo
Type: Side Scroller

Description: Control Tempo, the hard-rock-music-going bug, through many levels of side scrolling action at it's almost-best! BIG bosses with great 32-Bit quality prove that the 32X can do as much as any other 32-bitter.

+ : Great music, beutiful, flashy graphics, and simplistic gameplay, adding up to a great side scroller.
- : Gets a little repetitive towards the end. Slow gameplay, resembling Rayman.
RATING :

N.B.A. Jam T.E.
Type: Sports
+ : Good, smooth graphics. It hardly ever gets blocky. More codes than the original (You can even be Bill Clinton!), your ball still catches on fire, more people to choose from, even rookie teams. There's even a practice mode where you can master all of your dunks without having those pesky opponents bothering you.
- : Harder than the original. 3 point shots don't go in nearly as often. Your player gets worse as you play longer. Fire only stays on for 4 consecutive shots.
RATING :

Virtua Fighter
Type: Fighting
+ : Good graphics. 8 fighters to choose from. You can even put a code in to be Dural. Runs fast, doesn't skip frames. Many combos, throws, and special moves to master. Better than the Saturn version (You don't have to put in codes for the tournament mode, raking mode, and other things, like changing the size of the arenas). The music and sound effects sound nice and clear.
- : Graphics could be a bit better. Game is too easy. The endings are kinda crappy.
RATING :

DOOM
Type : 1st Person Perspective Shooter/Action
+ : Great graphics.Runs nice and fast. Codes. Cool ending( only if you beat the levels 1 - 15!).
- : Graphics get kind of blocky sometimes. Only 17 levels. Can't get the BFG-9000 unless you do a cheat code. No cyberdemon or spider mastermind included in this version. Sega rushed this game out, so there is a bug in it. Lots of times it will stall.
RATING :

Corpse Killer (32X CD)
Type: Interactive Movie/Lethal Enforcers Type of Game
+ : VERY GOOD graphics. I'm talking probably the best I have ever seen! Easily beats those newer Saturn and Playstation games. The music is kinda freaky (Only if you turn the volume way up). And hey, there is actually some blood in the movie parts. Also, the graphics are nice and clear (Unlike Night Trap). Looks like A REAL movie.
- : The mature rating may turn off some parents from buying this for their kids. Plus, the shooting parts are exactly like the SEGA CD version.
RATING :

Night Trap (32X CD)
Type: Full Motion Video
In this game, you are part of the S.C.A.T team ( Special Control Attack Team ), and your mission is to man the hidden cameras in the house and trap any intruders who try to invade. Your supposed to try to protect 5 girls who are spending the weekend at the house and trap the intruders, which are called Augers ( An Auger is a type of vampire ).
+ : Good graphics (Not as good as Corpse Killer), good music, cool traps.
- : It gets boring. Don't play this game if you are trying to beat it just for the ending. It has got about a 10 second ending.
RATING :

Star Wars Arcade
Type: First Person/Third Person Perspective Space Shooter
Star Wars Arcade is a very cool space shooter. You fly in the X-Wing and try to destroy those Tie Fighters. After that, you try to infiltrate things like the Death Star. The game is very close to the Star Wars Trilogy.
+ : Fun. Good Graphics. Very smooth animation.
- : Really challenging.
RATING :

Slam City : Featuring Scotty Pippen (32X CD)
Type : Full Motion Video / Basketball
+ : Very nice graphics....4 CD's!. 5 different people to play against.
- : Music isn't that great...some of the graphics aren't too good.....tough to learn. . .tough to win.
RATING :

Supreme Warrior (32X CD)
Type : Full Motion Video / Fighting
+ : A good concept, and can be fun once you get to know how to play it. 3 CD's!
- : Very tough. You would have tohave already been in kick boxing or something tokind of predict what the enemies will do. The graphics in the one just flat out stink.
