Charge 'n Blast Review
If I had to use one word to describe this game, addictive would be the word. Fast paced and challenging would be a couple more. This game is loaded with challenges; from aliens in a futuristic world waiting to tear you apart, to finishing in the time allowed, and to finding all the secret weapons. It's guaranteed to keep you hustlin!
There are 3 modes to choose from and each one is as good as any of the others. I prefer the 2 player mode as it's always more fun to beat up enemies with a buddy. If you aren't into pseudo violence, then this is NOT the game for you -- but if you want to take out some serious frustration and forget your troubles for a while, then this one would work. Of course, you might want to make sure no one else has a game they want to play or a show they want to watch because you are going to hate giving up the game console and television. The graphics and sound are terrific and the easy use of all the buttons on the controller sure make it a fun game.
The only problems I saw with the game are lack of instructions (they give ya the bare bones and that's about it) and the fact that it can be too hard for younger people. With the unique characters, tough enemies and some really cool weapons, this game is sure to keep you occupied for quite sometime!
