Classic Game Room HD reviews TUROK DINOSAUR HUNTER from 1997 for the Nintendo 64. This first person shooter adventure on the N64 takes players on a romp through the Land of the Lost… which is easy to get lost in because it all looks the same. Even though Turok seems incredibly dated today this classic title is still extremely playable because of its responsive controls and overall high quality gameplay. Blast dinosaurs, monsters and pathetic bad guys with a variety of weapons including shotguns and machine guns. Use an on-screen map to find your location and hunt down keys to unlock numerous levels in Turok. This CGR review of Turok Dinosaur Hunter on N64 has gameplay from this Nintendo 64 first person shooter FPS, Turok Dinosaur Hunter. A popular game, Turok was followed by many sequels including a more recent one just called Turok on PS3 and Xbox 360. How do you find the keys in Turok on the huge levels? Lots of exploring, lots of swimming and spellunking, lots of shooting! Published by Acclaim for N64.

This game is also available on Playstation 3 PS3 and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince can be played on Xbox 360, Nintendo DS, Sony PSP and Playstation 2 (but no Colecovision!??).

Dumbledore prepares Harry for the final battle which approaches, as Harry requests help from Professor Slughorn who holds memories in his head which could help. The teens run wild with hormones raging, fueled by magic and love potions…. how will it all end?? Harry Potter fans should enjoy this well made, technically solid romp through the Harry Potter world. Mix potions, duel with magic and take to the air as Seeker of the Gryffindor Quidditch team. Discover the identity of the Half Blood prince in Harry Potter the video game Nintendo Wii! Collect crests hidden throughout the castle and mini-crests lurking within lights. Harry Potter keeps it real for his 6th year… shouldn’t he be graduating soon? This CGRHD review of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has gameplay footage from Wii showing game play in Harry Potter the video game, Half Blood Prince on Wii.

Classic Game Room HD reviews SUPER MARIO KART for the Super Nintendo! This first and original SUPER Mariokart is regarded as the best, is it? Coins, less powerups, the feather and real acceleration, the Mario Kart series has seen many changes since this SNES video game cartridge released in 1992. This CGR review of Super Mario Kart has gameplay from Super Mariokart on Super Nintendo SNES showing game play during this Nintendo racing game. 8 original racers compete in shorter, tighter tracks that push your driving skills to the limit. Compete in GT challenges for 50cc, 100cc and 150cc. Split screen multiplayer and battle mode are available as is a fun time trial version of gameplay. Characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Koopa Troopa, Donkey Kong and more. Graphically the game looks bright and vibrant and shines with detailed visuals that dont suffer from slowdown, flicker or lag with the controller. Super Mario Kart started one of the most popular and highly praised game series ever, play the original! Find the SNES game cart for Super Mario Kart out there in cyberland for a few bucks. Itll cost more with packaging and manual, but do you need a manual? Hold down on the drive button and WIN! Super Mariokart on Wii is not available for download on WiiWare or Wii Virtual Console, maybe Super Mario Kart will be downladable soon for VC on the Nintendo Wii, but not yet. Pick up a SNES or compatible machine and have a great time with the first Super Mario Kart.

Classic Game Room HD reviews TRANSFORMERS REVENGE OF THE FALLEN for Nintendo Wii. It’s like the Bumblebee of Transformers video games. It should just transform into a car and drive itself off a cliff. Less than meets the eye kids, less than meets the eye. Buy or rent the AWESOME Transformers Revenge of the Fallen for Xbox 360 or PS3 and avoid this one. In an odd twist of fate (even odder than robots adopting the form of cars and school busses) the Transformers 2 video game has numerous versions… the Xbox 360 and PS3 version, two Nintendo DS versions and this mess on the Nintendo Wii. Sloppy controls, poor graphics and lackluster gameplay make this Transformers game the one to miss. This CGRHD review of Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen for Wii has gameplay footage from Transformers 2 on Wii showing the video game being played. Play Autobot and Decepticon, both (you can’t choose like you can in the 360 version) and play through a variety of mission types where the camera angles add confusion to what could have otherwise been a straight forward punch and shoot brawler.

Classic Game Room HD reviews POOL HALL PRO for Nintendo Wii. Shoot pool in arcade mode, exhibition or tournament against a variety of opponents (who are invisible!!). Pool games can be hit or miss depending on the controls, and Pool Hall Pro plays quite well even if the visuals aren’t up to current standards. Adjust your shot, choose where to hit the cue ball and fire away. The ball positioning and strategy used in real pool is all here and physics are done well. This CGRHD review of Pool Hall Pro has gameplay footage from Pool Hall Pro on Wii showing the game play as the pool video game is reviewed.

Classic Game Room HD reviews METROID PRIME 3: CORRUPTION for Nintendo Wii. Samus is back in the 3rd Metroid Prime (the 1st two are on Gamecube) and pushed the Wii to its limits with outstanding visuals, smooth gameplay and explosive sounds. Why don’t all Wii games look like this?? This CGRHD review of Metroid Prime 3 Corruption has gameplay footage from Metroid Prime Corruption showing Samus in game play, are you stuck in a section? Well, hope you found this in a search engine because I used the word stuck, Xbox 360 and PS3 (ha!), but I can’t help you there. However CGRHD likes Metroid Prime 3 Corruption and gives it a good review with favorable opinions. Although CGRHD prefers non-stop blasting and explosions, the puzzle and problem solving parts of Metroid Prime 3 will appeal to fans of the series and fans of science fiction adventure games. This is a first person shooter style game that uses the Wii controller and nunchuk to control where Samus aims and moves. It’s a very unique control system that has rave reviews from Wii fans everywhere. Turn into a pinball and roll through tight spots, double jump, use the super fancy-word power up laser thingy and upgrade your awesome space ship. Metroid Prime 3 Corruption is a flagship title on the Wii and is a well made, challenging and lengthy video game from Nintendo. While I still prefer the 1987 NES Metroid, this one is a must play on the Nintendo Wii. Will there be a Metroid Prime 4 release in 2009 or 2010? Is there a Nintendo Wii 2 with a new Metroid Prime in HD? Maybe, or maybe you just found this by searching for it because you dreamed it. There should be. Dig Dug should also make a guest appearance.

Classic Game Room HD reviews STEAL PRINCESS for the Nintendo DS from Atlus, not to be confused with Steel Princess or Remington Steele Princess or Steeel Princess which would be right out because no word has 3 e’s in a row, not even Eek. This CGRHD review of Steal Princess for Nintendo DS has gameplay footage from Steal Princess, solid as steel if the princess was Steel Prinecss made from Steel. CGR shows game play as Steal Princess fights her way through 150 different puzzle style levels. Fight bad guys, end bosses and solve puzzles in this cute, Japanese anime style game with people with purple hair and HUGE eyes. Atlus frequently brings well made, cool games over here (to US of A) and while Steal Princess isn’t my favorite game it delivers puzzle action and time solving awards, a map making mode and the ability to share maps over wi-fi to another Nintendo DS. Pretty neat. Steal Princess is on Nintendo DS and steal’s gems and stuff from bad guys to pay back a debt before she is encased in steel and sunk into the ocean. Classic Game Room HD reviews Nintendo DS games like Steal Princess, see how Steal Princess is reviewed by the CGRHD reviewing reviewer review-machine!
