series creator Rockne S. O'Bannon (Farscape, Alien Nation),seaQuest DSVmade a valiant attempt to present a thoughtful and socially conscious science-fiction series on par withStar Trekto a '90s audience (which had already latched ontoStar Trek: The Next Generation), but struggled with mediocre scripts and special effects for most of its three seasons (1993-96). The first season, however, embodies much of the ambition and scope its producers envisioned, starting with the two-hour television movie to introduces retired officer Cmdr. Nathan Bridger (a grim-faced Roy Scheider) to the crew of the underwater vessel seaQuest DSV. The pilot feature is well helmed by Scheider, and offers an agreeable mix of fiction and fact (oceanographer Dr. Robert Ballard served as technical advisor for the series), as well as considerable action and excitement for an expensive network series. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the cast (which included Stephanie Beacham as the ship's fetching doctor and the late Jonathan Brandis as a teen science whiz), the show's momentum faltered under the weight of corny embellishments such as its talking dolphin, Darwin (a genetically engineered human with gills would join the fray in the show's second season) and episodes like "Knight of Shadows," which offered a hoary possession storyline, or "Photon Bullet," which hinges on underwater computer hackers. The series would alternate between intriguing stories (like the suspenseful "Games") and ill-advised ones for much of its remaining seasons, which also saw cast changes(most notably, the departure of Scheider) in an attempt to revive audiences' flagging interest. All 23 episodes of the first season are included on this four-disc set, as well as a decent selection of deleted scenes from nine episodes, including the pilot. --Paul Gaita

Reviewed on monopoly on the Snes
I remember when I use to play Monopoly with my family until late at night and had to carry it on the next day because it went on for ages one marathon of a game. The basic idea of this game is quite simple you have to try and buy buildings, When you had bought a group of buildings or a group of the same colour spaces on the board, this enables you to buy houses and hotel,. You want your opponents to land on the spaces/buildings you own so you can charge them, and make them pay you money want to try to make your opponents go bankrupt to win the game you do this buy owning the most buildings and monopolising the board. This is an American version of the game so the buildings are not the same as the board game I played but this doesn?t really make a big difference to me. But will the SNES game compare ...

Review on Uniracer For the SNES
This game came out about ten years ago on the SNES. Playing the older games always brings fond memories for me and can be a more enjoyable because of the simplistic gameplay that was easier for kids to play. So is Uniracer a game to remember??
What is Uniracer??
******************
Well in Uniracer you control a one wheel bicycle called a unicycle, But the difference is between this and most other games is you have to do stunts to keep up the speed of your bike up. You can play this game against a computer or human opponents.

This is where you play against the computer but before you start your game you have to choose a bike. The bikes are named normal names like Michelle, Dave and so on but you can rename the bikes if you want to.

Advantages: Innovation, attractive looks, back catalogue, playability Disadvantages: Finicky Wiimote controls, no CD/DVD video support, extra purchase for full package
for DVD media, Nintendo decided that the Wii would have a new style control system, mixing bluetooth and infrared technology. This move would see Nintendo having their best selling console since the SNES.
I am not going to crunch figures with this machine because there is no need. This console can boast its success on its innovative controllers and developer support. With the Wii not only do you get a host of new games and a new way to play them, but with the integrated wireless connectivity you can connect to the internet and download Virtual console games with a back catalogue of Nes, Snes, MegaDrive, and TurboFX games from yesteryear, obtained by using your debit/credit card or points card bought from your local games emporium. The added bonus of being backward compatible with Gamecube games.
As I have already mentioned despite ...
