Super Smash TV

"Sin this game!"

Super Smash TV is basically a game which consists of three levels, which consist of dozens of stages that contains swarms of blood-lusted enemies waiting to get you. You are armed with a mere machine gun - and you'll definitely need more stuff to slaughter the number of enemies that come at your throat.

What's so fresh about this game? The SATISFACTION. Let's say you're just back from a stressing day. Instead of reaching for a stressball or playing a game which requires mindwork like Super Metroid, you can play Super Smash TV. Spend hours in front of the screen watching the endless hordes bow down at your superior power of grenade or rocket launchers, star guns or your expertise at machine-gunning. What's more, this game can be for those who just want to vent anger on easy meat. Super Smash TV can easily be enjoyed, and only desperate players can get past the Hard Difficulty.

Story (7.5/10) - It's all a violent TV game, something like Wheel of Fortune or that kind of games. Prizes like voluptious women or gold bars and piles of cash await you...however this storyline is kind of boring.

Graphics (7/10) - Nothing to jump up and down about. The graphics of sprites are not that impressive because of the fact that there are constantly so many sprites on the screen. However animation is quite good, and the blood is nice to look at.

Gameplay (9/10) - As I said, mindless bloodshed for a living and luxury. Go screaming and foaming at the mouth as you mow down enemies with your machine gun. Dozens of levels and secrets await you. You may take different paths or even shortcuts via the secret rooms.

Music (8/10) - Snappy. It goes along quite well for a TV show. You could start getting spurred on to greater heights in beat to the music. But otherwise it's nothing too much.

Sound Effects (9/10) - Very good explosion sounds and other effects I can't say. Also included is some speech from the commentator when he wishes you luck for your mission.

Replayability (9/10) - There are dozens of levels and they are set in fixed paths. Hardcore players may want to go through the game again to explore all levels. And get more enemies whacked down.

Buy or Rent? - You can buy this game because the aim is simple - charge into the battlefield spewing fire. If you're a beginner gamer rent this game, because you may get tired of it because it's too hard or something.

Overall - 8/10
