Reviews:
Chips Chalange- B+
Chips challange was one of the first games in which you had codes to jump to different levels. This game is preety cool it has a lot of power-ups and other things. This game was one of the few 2-D games for the Lynx

Alien vs. Predator- A-
This was the game of the movie of the same title. You could play as Predator or the Alien. I prefer the alien because it is very cool and is a lot bigger than the predator.
In 1991 when sega had their genisis. Atari needed a new product to get more profitts. Here came the Atari Jaguar. The Jaguar had a 18 button controller and was and still is the most buttons on one controller.

Fever Pitch Soccer- B-
Fever pitch soccer has some very good things like the annoncer telling you when it is a corner kick or when a plyer has yellow or red card. The left hand of the screen tells you who has the ball and who you can pass to. The gameplay is very fast and hard to play.

Val D'isere Skiing and Snowboarding- B-
I like that this game has a one or two player mode like 1080 Snowboarding. The graphics are rough compared to other Jaguar games. But it is very good game for it.
The Atari Video Computer System or 2600 was put out by atari in 1976 by one of the designers Joe Decuier. The 2600 had six silver buttons on it and it had a hard plastic top and a wooden front-piece. The VCS is famus for its massive size.

Pac-man- B+
The Pac man was the game that Namaco sold to atari to put out on its systems. The gameplay is very advance for the late 1970's and had a problem of repetitiveness on its levels. The game was very simple you get all of the bleepy thingy's and try not to get eaten by the ghosts.

Yars Revenge- B+
This game is like Bricks for cell-phone. The game is very simple also. You destroy all of the bricks or barriers to then try and fight he fleet of Yars that try to destroy you.

This system was brought out by atari in 1972 with pong this is a very boring game to todays' standards but it was a hit in '72.
I don't have an Atari 64 bit so I can't give you reviews yet.

I can give you a few for arcade:

Pong: A-
This game is is like ping pong (get it) you move the paddle up and down with the joystick or mouse. But it is sure addicting.

Centepede: B-
This game is like snake for NOKIA cell phones. It goes very fast and hard to control at first.
