Smashing Planets review. Classic Game Room presents a CGRundertow review of Smashing Planets from AppCrowd for the iPhone. Smashing Planets is a polished little game with solid gameplay and a slick look. Frankly, that makes our lukewarm reaction to it all the more confusing. The game puts you in charge of the safety of planet Earth. All these crazy aliens are attacking, but since our planet cannot move—just go with it, science nerds—you have to make a stand. And you do that by firing a bunch of intergalactic missiles with your finger. This is a defense game. You draw a line, and your missiles follow that line. You have to work and be accurate. Easier said than done. Less fun than it sounds. This video review features video gameplay footage of Smashing Planets for the iPhone and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Derek.

CGR Undertow - GAME BOY CAMERA Hardware Review

by CGRundertow (5/13/13) 61 views

Game Boy Camera hardware review. Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow review of the Game Boy Camera accessory from Nintendo. The Game Boy Camera was released in 1999. Featuring a large spherical camera attached to what is effectively a Game Boy cartridge, the accessory is compatible with most Game Boy systems. It allows users to take photos with a surprisingly robust variety of functions—it has a self timer, a time lapse, trick lenses and even panorama capabilities. The Game Boy Camera also allows for slideshows of your pictures, which are taken at a resolution of 256x224. It also has a handful of games pre-installed, which no digital camera can claim to have. This video review features video gameplay footage of the Game Boy Camera and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Derek.

CGR Undertow - QUAKE Review for PC

by CGRundertow (5/13/13) 4 views

Quake review. Classic Game Room presents a CGR Undertow review of Quake for PC developed by id Software and published by Gt Interactive. Quake was developed by id software, and released by GT Interactive in 1996. It was one of the very first true 3D first person shooters, and would go on to usher in the era of muliplayer first person shooting. This game led to the development of Team Fortress, and created many multiplayer moves such as rocket jumping. In order to get this game to work on a modern computer, one must either use dos box or a source port. I have found that Quake works best with the source port Darkplaces, it allows you to set modern controls and also have Quake run in 1080p. This video review features video gameplay footage of Quake for PC and audio commentary from Classic Game Room's Jon.
