Falcon Northwest Hardware Review













Vigilante 8: Second Offense
Dreamcast Preview: Ahh. The morning drive to work or school (in Ronin's case, home from the bar) is a tradition for most people. This daily routine of triple no signal lane changes, tailgating, speeding, cutting off, and road rage is just the pinnacle of finger flicking fun that is the American driving experience. Yes the daily drive; an American tradition. In case you haven't figured it out yet (and you smack yourself if you haven't read the title) it's the time of year where combat driving sims make their debut. Full Preview

Slipknot-Slipknot
Album review: 9/10 -- My personal choice for album of the year. Slipknot combines alternative with hardcore, mixing screaming lyrics with soft ones. The intense profanity of Surfacing and others is quite well used, and definitely not for the young ones. This album is filled with great tracks, including Surfacing, Spit it Out, Liberate, and my personal favorite, Wait and Bleed. There really isn’t a bad song on the CD. And we can’t forget the demento circus clown cover, showing off the band's onstage persona which looks great in your collection. A must have for any hardcore fan. -Spec

Quake 3 Arena
Dreamcast Review: 7.2/10 -- "I guess these days I'm just looking for more. And I should be, what with all the other options out there. But Quake 3 isn't a bad game for what it is. And that being it is a VERY simple First Person Shooter. Maybe not in the graphical technical department, but at it's heart and soul, at the game play level. And no matter how many technical jargon words you throw on the back of the box, it doesn't hide the fact that your pretty much getting Quake 2 all over again with a shiny new coat. " Full Review...

Vortex History: Criticom
Retro Review: Ever since this game has been reviewed, it's been an inside joke here at Vortex. If we call you a criticom-loving something or other, you now know where it comes from. Read the worst review in Vortex history, reviewed by none other than VX Kain, now known as Storms. And remember, this review is 4 years old, so the links won't work.  Full Story...
