----------------------------------------

this time i've reviewed the following
6 games: RODLAND
RUBICON

1.graphix :quality of graphix.
2.coding :how is the game built up,
is there any advanced
programming or whatever.
3.musix+sfx :quality of music/sound fx.
4.playability:is it easy/hard to control
your player. do you have
to use joystick and/or
keyboard in game.
5.endurance :what's the enjoyment while
playing the game. does it
get boring or is it
exciting till the end?
----------------------------------------
these 5 numbers will give the 'overall'.
here's a little statistic to show you
the value of the game.

overall value
----------------------------------------
00-25 :really bad,not worth your money!
25-50 :not bad but certainly not good!
50-75 :average,not bad at all,you've to
like it!!
75-90 :good! certainly no waste of time
and money for playing this!!
90-100:a hit!! better get this one as
it will give you great enjoyment
while playing!!
----------------------------------------

now to get back to the games...
here you've got the marks and some
extra information about them...

----------------------------------------
name :RODLAND
----------------------------------------
company :JALECO/SALES CURVE
----------------------------------------
graphix :75%
coding :80%
music+sfx :75%
playability:90%
endurance :85%
----------------------------------------
overall :81%
----------------------------------------
note:this game is very nice indeed.
too bad the in-game graphix aint
that cool,but the intro-,endscreen-
and big end dudes graphix are very
nice. the music is a bit childish
but fits the game perfectly.
it's easy to play though the last
enddude is pretty tough!!
this is a game you'll enjoy playing
as the end-dudes are different to
play with as the rest of the game!
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
name :LETHAL ZONE
----------------------------------------
company :GOLDEN DISK/CP VERLAG GMBH
----------------------------------------
graphix :90%
coding :82%
music+sfx :95%
playability:87%
endurance :80%
----------------------------------------
overall :87%
----------------------------------------
note:who said 'golden disk' is shit?!
this game proves they aren't!!
the graphix is stunning and so is
the music. (except for the "get
ready"-tune that is!)
it's pretty easy to play though it
gets pretty boring after a while!
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
name :THE FINAL FIGHT
----------------------------------------
company :CAPCOM/U.S.GOLD
----------------------------------------
graphix :65%
coding :70%
music+sfx :77%
playability:80%
endurance :60%
----------------------------------------
overall :70%
----------------------------------------
note:a big name on the arcades but a big
disappointment to me!!
the only nice thing about this game
is the intro.
in the game itself i only managed
to do a few fight-moves.
it gets soo boring after playing it
for some minutes...
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
name :RUBICON

company :???????
----------------------------------------
graphix :85%
coding :90%
music+sfx :95%
playability:95%
endurance :90%
----------------------------------------
overall :91%
----------------------------------------
note:this game is very cool!
it's very tough sometimes but it
stays cool till the end.
it's very well organized and the
loading sequences are cool...
the scroller is very good'n smooth!
this game is a mega-hit!!
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
graphix : 85%
coding : 90%
music+sfx : 90%
playability:100%
endurance : 95%
----------------------------------------
overall : 92%
----------------------------------------
note:the best game of this month!
it's very cool to play this one as
you've to collect cubes and money
to pass a level. you also have to
do several jobs for more money.
you can use several items to be
indestructible or to blow your
enemies. a shop makes it possible
to buy gadgets or to fill up your
energy. there are several hidden
spots were you can get lotsa cash.
also the story behind this game is
very good...

----------------------------------------
name :TERMINATOR 2

company :OCEAN
----------------------------------------
graphix :95%
coding :90%
music+sfx :75%
playability:85%
endurance :95%
----------------------------------------
overall :88%
----------------------------------------
note:the graphix of this game are highly
sophisticated.
as most other ocean games this one
features several screenshots of the
movie like driving on a motorcycle,
in a jeep,running in an institution
and with now and then a puzzle to
solve.
you'll play 3 different dudes in
one game,the old terminators,jimmy
and sarah connors...
due to no good soundtrack and a bit
lame sfx it just isn't a hit!!
but it's sertainly worth buying!!
----------------------------------------
