Austin Powers: Oh Behave! – Game Boy Color
Doc hoped that one of the only Austin Powers video games ever made would be shagalicious. Too bad it’s crap.
-
Final Fantasy II – NES
Final Fantasy II deserves credit for having to follow in the footsteps of a giant. The developers tried new things to keep it fresh, but the effort resulted in frustrating gameplay that overshadows the game’s more enjoyable moments. If you’re a fan of the franchise, give it a shot.

The Incredible Crash Dummies – NES

The Lost Vikings – SNES
It’s time to go back. Way back. Back to a time before all these fancy iPods, Youtube, and even Harry Potter! You’ve got it – 1992. The early years of the fabled 16-bit console war. When a small developer, by the name of Silicon & Synapse (Blizzard) was taking its first step towards greatness: The Lost Vikings. It was an odd game – perhaps one that was overlooked. An action/puzzle game that took you where no viking had gone before. Now it’s time for us to go there ourselves and take a look at this game of old. ZB dons a viking helmet for his review of The Lost Vikings for Super Nintendo.
