M.C. Kids

"Would you like fries with that?"

One Christmas day I opened a present and found ''M.C. Kids'' I sarcastically thanked my parents....I mean Santa. And then my parents asked me to try it out so I went to my room popped it into my NES and was blown away. This game was amazing! The only problem with it was maybe how difficult it was...maybe. Anyway on with the review.

Gameplay: 9/10
The game's difficulty was just too great at some points. The only reason I never turned it off was because there was no save feature or password system. I died many a time in the first level and it only got worse as the game progressed. Oddly enough I found the difficulty to be one of the best parts of the game. It's rare that a game can make me so frustrated that I yell at the game and throw the controller, and this game almost made me break my controller. I loved every minute of it.

Sound: 10/10
How can you not like the sound effects and music? Enough said.

Replay Value: 10/10
I love this game so much that I am forcing all of my friends to play it. One of my friends works at McDonalds so he is most definitely required to play this classic game.

Graphics: 10/10
What's not to love about this graphics. You can tell what everything is, which is rare with the NES. I mean you can't compare the graphics of this game to those of say...Final Fantasy X. That's like comparing apples and oranges. I actually prefer this game to FFX.

Story: 10/10
I honestly think the situation was over everybody's head. Does anyone know how much damage the Hamburglar could do with Ronald's magic cards. He could take over a multibillion dollar franchise. He could become wealthier than Bill Gates in a matter of minutes with those cards. So not only are Mic and Mac helping Ronald out, they are also saving the fast food world from a tyrant.

Overall: 10/10
The only problem is if you aren't good at video games you will probably have an ulcer trying to beat this game. But think about it this way, it will be the most fun you will ever have getting an ulcer. Even if you are extremely good at games you will still have some trouble with this game. It's a good challenge.

Should I buy it or not? BUY BUY BUY!!!!
Seriously people if you have not played this game you are missing out on a great gaming experience. I honestly don't know where you would find a copy but if you can find one BUY IT on sight. I don't care if it's $100 you buy this game and you will enjoy it. Also this is one of the few McDonalds products that isn't doused in grease.
