Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project



9.5/10

There isnt much to say about this game except for the fact that if you havent played it you truley aren't a gamer. The 3rd installment of the Ninja Turtle Series on the NES was not only better then the other 2, but it killed them and left them in a dumpster in the back of an alley. This is and forever will be one of the greatest arcade titles ever. The action was fast paced,the enemies were never ending,and the boss fights were unforgettable. And there was only one thing better then the single player campign and that was multiplayer. There was nothing better then kicking back with a friend and playing this game. I give it a 9.5 for only one reason, and thats because they didn't make a 4th one. This game is perfect!

Max Payne



9.0/10

Max Payne is one of those revolutionary games that often goes over looked. The game sets an eerie ton as you walk through the dark streets of the city searching for your wife's killer.You soon come to find out that the operation goes deeper then you thought. Now you are accused of killing your wife and your wanted by countless criminals. Not only did this game set a new standard for 3rd person shooting it was also the first game to introduce what we all know and love today as bullet time. I will never forget the thrill I first felt while I froze time and watched my enemies slowly die. The AI is smart,the gunplay is flawless, and the story is so compelling it will have you on the edge of your seat until the final moments when you bring your wife's killer to justice. There isn't enough I can say about this game, if you don't own it, buy it. It is and forever will be a classic that should be on all gamers shelves.
