"There are few moments that stick with you from game to game, platform to platform. One of those moments familiar to many gamers is the moment they cross the bridge in Final Fantasy and the epic adventure truly begins."

"One of the first PC shooters I would schedule and dedicate playing time to in order to progress, as the story drove things ahead. Also enjoyed 'Opposing Force'."

"Great Mario game. One of the few Mario games I could consistently beat. As I recall, if you beat it twice in a row, there was a stage select trick so you could skip to your favorite stage (e.g. the Airplane stage or the Submarine stage...) ."

"An excellent, long involved rpg for the gameboy. With a party that could hold humans, robots mutants or monsters, great music, a decent plot and the classic Final Fantasy gameplay seen on the NES and SNES, it was a very good game."

"I'll never view a mini golf green the same again."

Characters:

Mithrandir, — Stealth character; Listener of the Dark Brotherhood, Master of the Fighters Guild, Champion of Cyrodiil, Master of the Thieves Guild and owner of the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal.

"Solid update to a fun series"

"Once you're used to the controls, this port of the classic game plays really well - I can see folks getting callouses from too much game play! All the game play changes made to this classic are minor and fit the platform well."

"A fun puzzle game with bright graphics and easy to grasp game mechanics. The penalty for an incorrect move isn't forgiving given the iPhone's small touch area, but that's a minor complaint against an overall good game."

"Good sequel. Easy to drop back into it and run through the single player campaign."

"We bought two six-button controllers specifically for this game, and they made it worthwhile. The game play was exactly what you'd expect and the addition of the playable boss characters meant that the SNES version got dusty pretty quickly."

"Kind of an RPG, kind of a sidescrolling platformer, Gargoyle's Quest was a pretty neat game that spun out of the Ghouls & Ghosts series. Biggest drawback was the use of passwords to save your progress - it wasn't often one had a notepad and pen. "

"Awesomely fun game; great with multiplayers. Love this kind of spinoff idea."

"Finishing this on Veteran was tough, but hella fun."

"You know that any Star Wars game with a cameo from Lando Calrissian is gonna be good. This was."

"Quirky expansion that was pretty fun."

"'bot support in multiplayer was one of the best things about this game."

"Been playing email-based games for last few years. Did same in Civ III too before this one."

"Classic multiplayer, great for unwinding in the office..."

"This and the expansion (Mysteries of the Sith) were pretty decent. Huge maps, interesting puzzles and pretty good cutscenes made this a pretty sharp game for the time."

"FPS on rails; lot of good moments and fun co-op. The multi-player is a nice change of pace from more frenetic shooters."

"Good game. Zombie mode is fun."

"That first level was an awesome intro, and who can forget the TV station? This game needs some DLC that's more missions and not just multiplayer maps - though the multiplayer is excellent too."

"Never really got used to the 'home cities'."

"Miles away from previous, more tactical attempts to bring this to life, like Chaos Gate or Fire Warrior."

"Basically Gradius for Gameboy, Nemesis was a fun side scrolling shooter."

"An early first person (first happyface?) 3d shooter, this game was also a blast to get going with multiple players over the four player adapter."

"Good update of the original, with a decently fun singleplayer side and a pretty fun team multiplayer."

"The audio diaries used here worked a lot like BioShock's; but focusing on progressing the 'current' story, and less on the overall back story. The universe was a bit more 'sterile' as a result."

"Pretty disappointed so many of the achievements focused on multiplayer - but the game itself was pretty good."

"Played a bit on PC, but really got into it on xbox360."

Characters:

Mithrandir, — Stealth character; Listener of the Dark Brotherhood, Master of the Fighters Guild, Champion of Cyrodiil, Master of the Thieves Guild and owner of the Gray Cowl of Nocturnal.

"Bouncing along on your stone wheel - wait, what? This game was an odd side-scroller that had you jumping obstacles and ducking branches and stuff to rescue your girlfriend or something."

"Nothing like the tinny theme of your selected wrestler coming out of the Gameboy speaker."

"Basically "Battleship" for Gameboy, with a few bells and whistles."

"Not bad, though having to play through a bajillion times to get the achievements isn't so hot."

"Nice try, but the execution was a bit painful when it came to flying units. Still, had some decent multi-player battles."

"Perhaps the worst sports game ever created, it was strangely addictive when playing a human opponent - the horribly slow jump shots, the shoves to opposing players at key moments, the inevitable 'all bill laimbeer' teams... Awful, awful game."

"Pole vault - most difficult event ever?"

"Sloped brick levels and ladders, work your way to the top of the level, dodging the soldier and the cannon balls. Cheerful music though."

"Simple game where the goal was to avoid the enemies and climb ladders (or catch the elevator) to the top so you could get some more beer. Brick floors and plain ladders - a staple of the Apple][ programming community."

"Kinda like a poor man's Loderunner - you when up and down various brick/ladder combinations and dug aligned holes and tried to get the apples to fall in them so you could hit them with your shovel."

"Repetitive, bland point & click procedural. The actors pretty much phone in their voice work, there's a lot of repetition to solving each crime, back and forth between locales - the tv show sexed up CSI work - this brought it back down to earth."

"A very linear RPG; no real side quests (except the "Holy Beast Shrine", which is really just a big dungeon. The first few hours are tough to get through due to some painful characterization, but the rest of the game isn't bad and has a standard feel."
