I went back and forth for a while trying to decide if i should pay this much for a book that i'd never heard of. BOY AM I GLAD I BOUGHT IT!  This book is fantastic, i find myself picking it up nearly everyday.

I went through my old Video games, weeding out those destined for trade in at Bookman's.  I saw this one and remembered liking it, so I threw it back in and played it through.  I forgot how much fun this game was and highly recommend a re-try to those FPS freak out there.  I mean, you can get this game dirt cheap now, and it is a total blast!!!

My only beef is, you have to play it through in order to use the cheat available and many of us play a game once and that's it.

Other than that, not a single complaint.  This game freaking rocks!  Tons of different monsters/foes, tons of cool weapons, level upon level of varying backgrounds.  Too me back to the old days of all the Doom games.

So, if you're feeling nostalgic and want to play an FSP that doesn't require you to evolve three extra fingers on each hand, dig this one back up or buy it dirt cheap here on Amazon.  You won't regret it.

I honestly cant fathom how many hours i put into this game on the regular playstation, and to be able to have it and relive all of those great memories again on the PSP is worth its weight in gold! Amazing game. Buy it if you played it before and wanna play it again and definetly buy it if you never got to and you love this format!!!

Not only is this the best of the best for every single Pinball variety game that I have played, this is also my favorite game for the Wii. Endless hours of fun and entertainment.

I just bought this game because I had come across my MS DOS version of the game and was not able to play it on Windows 7.

So I bought this game and was impressed how nice it looked on my 27" CRT television. It's everything a real pinball machine should be and more. Empire had it right when it come to the physics of the game, and the game does not slow down when all of the balls are on the screen. I'd say the reason for this is that the color pallet used in this game is not as graphically rich as what they did in later releases such as Time Shock, Big Race USA or Fantastic Journey. Music is great too. The only thing that kills this game is the long loading times. If your on a PS2 you might be able to get away with this by turning on fast disk loading but other then that it may drive people up the wall. However the high playable qualities of this game may make you look past this simple case of long loading times. A recommended addition to your PS1 Pinball library.

If you're just a collector or love monopoly this game is a must-have!

 The quality is great! I love the collectible pieces that each player can choose. The money has a different Jack Skellington face on 5s, 10s, etc. the Chance and Community Chests  are "Halloween Presents" and "Christmas Presents". The houses and hotels are purple and orange. Its just an all around awesome purchase. I am very pleased with it and get many compliments.

I own Super Smash Bros. Melee and I can tell you from personal experience that it derserves five stars. If you liked the N64 version you'll love this one. Invite your friends for the most fun, but don't get me wrong, single player is just as great. Nearly a dozen hidden characters, 14 starting ones, almost 20 stages, and even collectible trophies (over 300!) are new,  improved features in SSBM. Test your fighting in the many melee rounds, or hone your skills in Adventure or Classic mode.  There's even an added video starring the 14 original characters. You won't be disappointed.

I have heard of friends playing the game and said it was good, so on a whim I bought it and it has been the biggest hit in our family, so much so that siblings of ours bought it too!!!! This is a must buy and it didn't take long to get.

We bought the game for Christmas and are very impressed with it.  The bumpers are lively, the flippers are ultra responsive and the sound is fantastic!  I cannot wait until Zizzle comes out with a second and third generation of these reasonably priced pinball machines.  I would have given the machine 5 stars except for one annoying feature...when you launch the ball, the shoot releases the ball onto the playfield only half way up (by design).  This, in my opinion, results in the ball sometimes draining much too quickly.  I would have rather seen the shoot go all the way to the top of the playfield so it would have longer to travel before getting to the flippers.  This is a minor annoyance though, overall, my family and I have played many fantastic games on this pinball machine.  Way to go Zizzle!

I recently purchased the Bowlercade as a birthday present for my 5 year old nephew and you wouldn't believe what a hit it was at the party, even I played with it. I was actually quite amazed at how quickly we assembled it (only 13 minutes). The game is so magical; the kids loved the automatic pin resetting and ball return. Let me tell you what pain in the you know what it is chasing down balls. With this item the balls come right back every time. With automatic scoring and cute sounds, the item was a hit all day!!! I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this item to anyone.

Absolutely love this Game!!!  It doesn't seem like much by just having 16 cards, I bought 3 different card designs because its that much fun. The black box version from Japan has a nerdy guy as the prince if you wanna play with a group of only girls and the guys love the southern bell cards. All are about 11 -14$ a deck but in the two American versions they come with a cute little bag to hold your cards. Its a very fun game of screw your nieghbor, strategy, and concentration mixed with a little luck you can win the affection of the princess or the prince (depending what version you buy).

I still love picking this up once in a while to run through it. This is by far my favorite Tron game. It's got the Arcade / FPS / RPG / Storyline all rolled into one. Definitley worth every penny.

My kids (10 and 8) just watched MP & Holy Grail for the first time. When my husband and I saw this Fluxx game, we knew they'd be really excited to play. We're all a fan of Fluxx in general and own several different versions of the game. The regularly changing rules give everything an element of chaos that makes it hard to have anything buy fun while playing. The Monty Python version adds the level of silliness any Python fan would expect and cherish. From talking in funny accents to singing favorite songs, there is so much to keep you laughing and nostalgic for your favorite Python films/episodes, you'll probably want to watch them when you're done. And as Python fans know, once you start quoting, you can't stop. With partial quotes on most of the cards, the game winds up full of everyone finishing them off and quoting remaining dialogue back and forth. For our family of Python fans, the sheer happy joy of playing this game together makes it priceless.

Pinball of the Dead is a strange combination of a modern day pinball machine and the House of the Dead arcade shooter.  The graphics and design are stunning and the gameplay is good too.
There are 3 different machines to play, and they are all pretty different from each other.  Before you shoot any ball you get to shoot a zombie via roving cross hairs.  Hitting the zombie will net you some type of bonus, like multipliers or lost ball kickbacks,etc.
Within each machine (not really levels) there are the standard pinball sequences to hit like spelling out words to get big bonuses.  More interestingly though, is the House of the Dead flair.  All kinds of zombies are roaming the table.  If the ball is going slow enough the zombies can deflect the ball.  If the ball is going fast enough it squishes the zombies in a great big splat of green goo (color is configurable).
There are also special zombie battles and boss battles.  The zombie battles are engaged by squishing a bunch of zombies and then dropping the ball in a hole.  This will take you to a mini-game in which you have to squish a variety of flying/running/floating zombies.
The boss battles are even better.  By engaging the right combination of table features (hitting areas, balls in holes, etc), you can cause a boss to rear his...ugly head in the middle of the table.  Your immediate task of couse is to pound his ugly mug with the ball until he dies/goes away.
Of the 3 tables, I like the 3rd one the best (has hands for flippers) although the 2nd table has this neat pulsating heart/molecule thing that grows/changes as your ball rides the rails around it as well as a 2nd level area with extra flippers underneath the main table that see via a glass window in the main table.  The first table is good too although I seem to have difficulty getting the ball out of the bottom area and up into play.  The 2nd table is definitely the hardest to play.
Game play is good.  Flipper action is accurate as is ball motion.  NOTE: you HAVE to use "nudge" to be good at this game.  The other note is that pinball tables are vertical and the GBA (SP) screen is horizontal which makes for a bit of machine controlled scrolling.  There are plenty of times that you ball will drop between the flippers too quickly because the scrolling is not fast enough to keep up.
All in all this is an addictive game with a broad area to explore.  The unlockable elements just add to the exploration.
This is a game definitely worth owning.

This game is the best version of tetris there is. I don't care that it doesn't have a battery back-up, because that doesn't effect the game in any way. with 7 variations of the game and classic Tetris Music(including "the dance of the suger plum fairy" from the NES Tetris) this pak will keep you entertained for hours!
(hint: unlock the popular version of tetris by holding L and pressing select on the game menu. this plays exactly like the original version with scoring and no cut-off point.)
This version of tetris has a new scoring system: time. see how fast you can play through 15 levels, the required number of lines multiplying by the level number. buy this game. you won't be dissapointed

Like KISS?  Like Pinball?  This one is really a lot of fun.  This game moves fast and incorporates everything you want from KISS.  Both of the games (Oblivion and Netherworld)  are equally challenging and there are 4 skill levels if you think you have mastered one.  Stanley and Simmons provide the voices behind the game which is very cool.
You really can't beat this game with a price this low.  I bought it one night and played it for hours.  It helps if you are a huge KISS fan - but any avid pinball player will love this game.  And if you don't have a CPU - it's coming to the Playstation as well for an even lower price!  Buy this game!
