 Phalanx (video game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Phalanx is a space shooter video game designed by Kemco for the Super Nintendo and Game Boy Advance.
Phalanx is infamous for the incongruous box art in its American release: it displays an old bearded man dressed in overalls, wearing a fedora and playing a banjo while a futuristic spaceship flies in the background.
The box art designers later admitted that they have deliberately chosen this theme, in order to attract the customer with something original considering that there were many space shooters in the market that looked alike.

 Video Game Guru - Activision's David Crane
Designing a good video game is more than a token victory.
A game designer has as much right to be credited for his work as a composer." Some wily designers found ways to take public credit without their bosses' knowledge, Miller says.
More often, Crane says, designing video games is a process of eliminating every idea that doesn't fit, like a sculptor chipping away at a block of marble in search of a statue trapped within.

Phalanx is not a typical arcade shooter, however.
One of the most dissapointing features is that the game only has 4 different weapons, and you can easily get all of them by the second stage.
Stalking Phalanx for relatively some time, I eyeballed the dupe on its game shelf and then asked myself “can anything go wrong with this one?” I took the gamble, bought it, and settled down with the new cart injected into my GBA.

Unlike other strategy games where cheats are limited to extend resources or remove the fog of war, ''Age of Empires'' also had several cheats that allowed the player to use hidden units or enhance regular units.
They are the most expensive building in the game, require several villagers to be completed in a medium term and cannot be converted even by monotheistic priests.
A few units were added or revised, but no gameplay mechanics of the original were changed; this resulted in the game reflecting a more militaristic view of the rise of Rome than most historians ascribe to it, in that they tended to avoid tactics such as scorched earth and genocide when possible.

 Quake II video game for PC Games
In this game, the emphasis is taken away from gameplay and put towards graphics, cinematics (which you HAVE to watch and you can't leave, and they're very long), and plot.
The games plot is alright in some specks...I really didn't care for the story to be honest with you but The graphics on this game were great for the year it came out.
This game is not the best game ever made but it will be a solid fun filled game with top notch violence...yea the games pretty violent.

The game also doesn't have a whole lot of replay value, but if you don't have time for a long game CT3 will be entertaining, as long as you are not expecting a sequel in the tradition of the earlier Clock Tower games.
This is mainly due to the fact that the game throws too many waves of enemies at you and your main character never seems too concerned about all the crazy crap that's going on around him.
The game has some interesting elements, but the gameplay may be too different from what you are used to(you spend most of your time running away from some killer chasing you around the level).

 City States: Stone to Steel (previously Pax Romana)
While used in video compression, this principle has never been applied in real time games efficiently before for the simple reason that even if the sprite part is unchanged, it is moving within the sprite.
Although more recent games offered the player a choice between several nations at the beginning of the game, this simply increased the life of a game without proposing an alternative, as there was little difference between those nations, limited of a couple of unique technologies and units.
Again, like in many existing games, their mood is important to the player and depends on such obvious factors as taxation, rations, the presence of such luxuries, as wine, sanitation and various forms of entertainment, including theatres, circuses, hippodromes, religion and monuments.

 KKND (Krush, Kill 'N Destroy) for PC video game review and cheats
If you haven't played other real-time strategy games, suffice it to say that with beginning to intermediate mouse skills and a little studying of the manual, you'll have no troubles.
The only game to have solved this problem thus far is Lords of the Realm II with its "mop-up" feature that allows for a quick resolution once the main fight has been decided.
After a reinstall it seemed to work better for a day or two, then began encountering sound and video problems again, especially at the end of missions, resulting in the loss of the mission since the crash precluded saving the scenario as won.

They've released their own 90-second video, "Keep Talking," featuring hip-hop music and cops with local street cred to send the message to the community that it's important cooperate with local authorities to get criminals off the streets.
The other reason for putting out the video was so that we could reach out to some of the younger people who may have seen the video.
And when they watched the video and see these criminals glorifying their lifestyle, we want to make sure that we put in the sequel that shows the end of what happens with these guys and the end for these guys typically is they're either ending up dead or they're ending up in prison."

 The Video Game Critic's Game Boy Reviews M-Z   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Originally available for the Super Nintendo in the mid-90s, this game was the victim of one of the worst marketing gimmicks in video game history.
Phalanx does throw a few surprises your way, like supply trucks that explode with worms when shot, and the water stage where the water surface is on the top AND bottom on the screen (remember, you're in space!) The game saves your high scores and lets you continue on your last stage.
Some of the games are completely off-the-wall, like the one where you have to rapidly tap a button to make a princess sniff dripping snot back up her nose!
