Alien Vs Predator: The Last of his Clan - Game Boy - Review




It seems strange looking back now but in the early nineties it wasn’t uncommon for 18 certificate films to be blatantly marketed at children. As long as it had a cool sci-fi setting or a badass looking monster then it was considered fair game to turn into a toy line, comic series, video game and maybe even a spin-off cartoon.

Oddworld Adventures II - Game Boy Color - Review




Recently I reviewed Oddworld Adventures for the Game Boy, and as a big fan of the Oddworld series I was left fairly underwhelmed.  Whilst I enjoyed the gameplay and puzzles I found the graphics, and longevity to be somewhat lacking. The Game Boy port of Abe’s Oddysee had been scaled back to one small section of the original game, and as a result I was left with a feeling that it could have been so much more. Thankfully, Abe’s adventures on the Game Boy didn’t end there and so now it’s time for me to turn my attention to the game’s sequel; Oddworld Adventures II.
