Super Mario 64

Ok, so leading up to playing this game, I was under the impression that this Mario game was an awesome 3D version of Mario. Well, what I ended up seeing was a complete failure to the Mario name. I honestly don't see why people enjoy this game so much. I could only stand to play it for about 20 minutes before I called it quits. I never was a big fan of the Nintendo 64, but this just made me dislike it even more.

Gotta give it a What a Piece of Junk, and Don't Bother. If it wasn't obvious, I think this game is way overrated.

Super Mario Bros 2

I have found that the games I review are based a lot on the mood I'm in. When I'm feeling lazy or not very creative I tend to review games I don't like. So before I start this review let me just tell you, I'm in a lazy mood.

Super Mario Bros 2. What can I say that's positive about it? Hmm...can't really think of anything at the moment. I would like to say it's a typical Mario game so it can't be that bad, but it really didn't feel like a Mario game to me. First of all, jumping on enemies didn't kill them, I had to throw these stupid turnips that I pulled out of the ground. The worlds felt dreary and dull. I just think it's an overall fail of a Mario game.

So that being said, my rating is What a Piece of Junk and Don't Buy.

E.T. The Extraterrestrial

This game is widely considered as the game that almost killed the video game industry. The game is buggy and unless you look it up online, there's no obvious objective. Now, I don't think it's quite as bad as people say, but it's definitely one of the worst. I know I was one of those people who would always get trapped in a pit, but after recently playing it for longer than 10 seconds, I did manage to make it out (after quite a few curse words). The only reason anyone should play this game is so they can just experience the game , that as legend has it, had thousands of copies dumped into an empty hole in the middle of nowhere so it couldn't hurt anyone any more.

Obviously a What a Piece of Junk and Don't Bother.

Mass Effect 3

Maybe I should do the Mass Effect 1 and 2 reviews before I do this review, but I wanted to do a quicker review. In my eyes, this was by far the worst of the 3 ME games. It felt like the whole game I was doing little chores for people. Don't they realize that the existence of the entire universe is at stake? Why am I running around trying to find your stupid lost dog? Don't you see the giant gun on my back? Ok so you don't actually go looking for a lost dog, but you still are stuck doing equally mind numbing tasks.

The whole point of the game was to just see how the Mass Effect series ends. It seemed like a waste of 15 hours just to see how the series ended (if this was indeed the final of the series). Frankly I didn't think the ending was worth it. I don't think it was as bad as everyone else had said. To me it was like ordering pancakes, waiting 15 hours and getting waffles. Do I really care that I got waffles instead? A little. Do I care about waiting 15 hours? Absolutely. I give them props for redoing the ending for the fans, but they really didn't have to. I also get how they tried to introduce their multiplayer by tying it into the actual game. However, this was a very bad idea since the multiplayer was only co-op and not very good.

All in all this game puts the series to shame and I unfortunately have to give it a What a Piece of Junk and a Don't Bother. I bet they made a nice payday on it though...so good job there.
