    When it comes to video game destruction for brains and brawn, Blast is definitely the master.

    Blast Corps never denies that it is primarily a video game, and that is very refreshing. A great first generation game that shows off Rare's potential and game-making skill.

    In this frighteningly entertaining new cart, developers Rare have gone all out, combining nuclear weapons, giant robots, construction vehicles, AND load motor noises in one title. The results are spectacular.

    An under-rated game, which made for a playable and exciting use of the N64's 3D abilities. It is so enjoyable, you find yourself playing endlessly, just to get those satisfying platinum medals. The relative simplicity of the N64's environments meant that even though there are not so many games made for it, they are often perfect realisations of their concepts. Simple though it is, this is a case in point.… Expand
