Goemon's Great Adventure

"This is one heck of a game! So very close to perfection!"

Goemon's Great Adventure has finally brought back the outstanding side scrolling gameplay of the SNES era to the N64 in a unique 2D/3D environment. This game EXCELLS in graphics, sound, and fun! This is one amazing game!

Graphics (10/10)

I can actually safely give this game a 10 in graphics! There are only 2 glitches in the WHOLE game. And the backgrounds and foregrounds are spectacular. The town and castle graphics are ideal for unique explorations and are simply the best approach to graphics I have seen on the N64. The character's are smoothly designed and lifelike. What can I say! Perfect!

Sound (10/10)

YES! Here Goemon's Great Adventure excells once again! The music is different in almost every stage so you'll never have to keep on hearing the same music over and over. The music is very oriental and exotic sounding. I love it! Excellent sound quality and sound effects!

Control (8/10)

Ahhh it's not bad, but it doesn't excell. Jumping over holes is a pain. But moving around is pretty easy.

Plot (10/10)

ALl I can say is the plot is very very unique! I can't really explain the plot becuase it IS TOO WIERD, but it's kind of funny. It's about saving the world from a ghost machine that revives evil spirits from the underworld. Pretty good for an adventure game I think.

Fun (10/10)

This game is very very very fun!!! It is perhaps the most fun game i've played on the N64! You all have to at least rent this game!

Well that's about it. This game has fair replay value.
