Kenwood TH-D72 short review

2011-10-23T11:33:00.000+03:00

I've had the new Kenwood TH-D72 144/440 Mhz APRS hand-held radio in my possession for almost 24 hours now, so it's time to start writing my review. This radio is indeed interesting and has a unique set of features which make it unlike anything else on the market. It is in some ways both more and less than I was expecting it to be, which I will cover in as much detail as possible.

Physical Attributes
Before discussing the feature set of the HT, I'll first cover the physical attributes. This first pic is of the TH-D72 next to the popular Yaesu VX-8r for size comparison:

These are the same two radios on their sides. The VX-8r has the extended battery pack:

As you can tell, the TH-D72 is considerably larger in height and width than the VX-8r. It is closer to the size of the Icom IC-T70a. If you like something that fits larger in your hand with buttons spaced a little farther apart, you will like this radio.

This picture shows the difference in the stock ducky antenna sizes. The Kenwood's is considerably smaller, but I haven't had a chance to do any real comparisons yet.

The belt is made of metal and screwed to the back of the radio. I think you'll have a difficult time breaking this!

This picture should give you a fairly good idea of the width of the radio in your hand:

Here is the top of the radio with the SMA connector exposed. You can see that the connector is sealed up pretty well to help keep moisture and dust out. However, rhe specifications do not say anywhere that it is waterproof or even water resistant.

This is a close-up view of the PTT, monitor, and lamp buttons. The PTT is very nice, easy to push, and quite large. I like it!

This close-up view of the other side shows the speaker, mic, COM, power and USB port. Finally, an HT with a USB port!!!

This is the same view with the rubber covers closed:

Overall, the radio seems like it is constructed very sturdy. The battery is held in tightly by a strong clip on the bottom. There is no slop or play at all with the battery secured. I can't see any reason why this radio wouldn't last a long time, although time will tell how well it withstands the elements.

Kenwood TH-D72 Basic APRS Functions

2011-10-23T11:22:00.001+03:00

I noticed that the manual of this amazing HT is not the best. Actually you have to guess many things to operate the device. Anyway i made the following instructions for basic APRS operation. More will follow.

APRS Basics

APRS functionality is the what this HT excels at. It is the probably the main reason why anyone would consider purchasing this radio, and in my initial testing, Kenwood delivers. The HT has every possible APRS function that I could think of including the capability to digipeat. In this segment, I'll demonstrate Kenwood's implementation of the basic APRS functions

The basic APRS functionality is very easy to set up and fairly straight forward to use. To get started, you only need to go to the setup menu and enter the your callsign into the basic APRS setup. The default data band is the A band, so if you set that to your local APRS frequency (144.800) and hit the TNC button to turn on the TNC, the radio will start decoding the APRS traffic. If you want to Beacon your own position, go to the TX BEACON menu and set up either a beacon interval or turn on smart beaconing. You can set up more advanced APRS settings, but the defaults will get you going.

Once the radio starts to decode APRS data, it will start to pop up a display showing the received stations. This is a sample display of the HT receiving a beacon:

When the station beacon is displayed, you can hit the right arrow button to scroll through the other screens to display the remaining info. You perform the same function from the station list menu. Here are the screens that are shown as you continue to scroll through them:

Note that the entire status text is not shown on one screen; more scrolls are required:

Grid Square and distance from your station:

Course and speed:

Altitude:

GPS location:

To display the list of APRS stations received, hit the LIST button which shows three stations at a time:

If you hold down the LIST button, you get five stations at a time with a bit of additional information:

If you hold the LIST button again, it changes the right column to the time received. Once you've chosen your preferred display for the list, the radio remembers the setting for the next time. Using the scroll buttons, you can select a station on the list, hit the MENU button which then allows you to either sort by distance, callsign, or date, apply a filter, or tune to the monitoring frequency indicated by the station's beacon. This particular functionality set is well thought out and very useful.

The method used by the TH-D72 to scroll through the APRS info for each station is another example of simplicity in screen display. As is the case with the GPS screens, it is obvious that the designers went out of their way to make the display large and easy to read. The downside of this approach is that not much information can be displayed at one time. It takes no less than 7 screens of scrolling to view all of the APRS data for one station. The contrasting approach is the Yaesu VX-8 which implements vertical scrolling on the individual screen with a smaller font to show you more information quickly. My personal preference is the Yaesu implementation, but I can also appreciate why some would favor Kenwood's approach.

Sending/Recieving APRS Messages

Sending and receiving text messages using the TH-D72 couldn't be easier. Once you've selected the station you want to communicate with on the station list, you simply press the MSG button, resulting in this screen where you just use the alphanumeric buttons to enter your message:

After entering the text, press the right arrow button to send it, which will result in this screen once a digipeater/iGate accepts it:

When the other station receives and ACK's your message, you get this in response:

When you receive a message from another station, you get a popup with the message display like this:

There are a lot of things to like about the way Kenwood has implemented APRS functionality in this HT, but as is the case with anything, there are also a few areas for improvement. I'll make some comments about some of the things I would do differently in the next update. If there are any questions or others that would like to contribute their views on this HT.

Playstation 3

2011-10-18T16:34:00.000+03:00

The redesigned, slimmer version of the PlayStation 3 (commonly referred to as the "PS3 Slim" and officially branded "PS3") is currently the only model in production. It features an upgradeable 120 GB, 160 GB, 250 GB or 320 GB hard drive and is 33% smaller, 36% lighter and consumes 34% (CECH-20xx) or 45% (CECH-21xx) less power than the previous model, or one third of the original PS3 model. The Cell microprocessor has moved to a 45 nm manufacturing process, which lets it run cooler and quieter than previous models, and the cooling system has been redesigned. The RSX moved to a 40 nm process in the latest revision. The PS3 slim also includes support for CEC (more commonly referred to by its manufacturer brandings of BraviaSync, VIERA Link, EasyLink etc.) which allows control of the console over HDMI by using the TV's remote control. The PS3 Slim no longer has the "main power" switch like the previous PS3 models, similar to redesigned PlayStation 2 slim. Support for emulation to play PS2 titles is not present in the Slim version, however shortly after the release of the PS3 slim, Sony announced a new series of PS2 remasters called Classics HD as in PS2 and PSP titles remastered in HD for the PS3 with trophies added and sometimes Playstation move compatibility.

The PS3 slim was officially released on September 1, 2009 in North America and Europe and on September 3, 2009 in Japan, Australia and New Zealand. However, some retailers such as Amazon.com, Best Buy and GameStop started to sell the PS3 slim on August 25, 2009. The PS3 Slim sold in excess of a million units in its first 3 weeks on sale. A 250 GB Final Fantasy XIII-themed PS3 Slim, which was white in color with pink designs, was officially announced on September 24, 2009 at the Tokyo Game Show as part of a bundle in Japan for Final Fantasy XIII, it was initially revealed in U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) filings as the PS3 CECH-2000B. Sony Computer Entertainment Australia also announced later that day that it would be bringing the 250 GB PS3 slim to Australia which would be bundled with other games and will not feature the Final Fantasy XIII theme. Although no North American bundles have been announced for the 250 GB PS3 slim, it is sold as a stand-alone console in North America.

In July 2010, Sony announced two new sizes of Slim PS3, 160 GB and 320 GB, with the 120 GB model being discontinued in Japan. These were launched on July 29, 2010 in Japan, with the 160 GB version available in "Classic White" as well as the standard "Charcoal Black".The black 160 GB version was also made available as a bundle with the Japan-only DVR accessory torne. It was later announced that the new sizes were to be launched in other regions, with the 160 GB model available from August 2010 in North Americaand October 2010 in Europe. The 320 GB model is to be available in North America only as part of a bundle with PlayStation Move, a PlayStation Eye and a copy of Sports Champions,and in Europe with PlayStation Move, a PlayStation Eye and a demo disc. The bundles were released on September 19, 2010 and September 15, 2010 respectively, to coincide with the launch of PlayStation Move.

Conceived and designed by BEHRINGER Germany

If you need superior stereo sound for small club gigs, churches or speeches, but have to keep the outboard gear to a minimum, the 20-channel PMP5000 can really deliver. This 1,200-Watt mixer has built-in mic preamps and dual FX processors, as well as enough power to drive both mains and monitors, thanks to twin onboard 600-Watt power amps.

Massive Mono or Stunning Stereo

The PMP5000 gives you the choice of 2 x 600-Watt stereo, 2 x 600-Watt dual mono or 1,200-Watt bridged mono sound. Whether the center of attention happens to be a folk trio, a speech, or a synth-rock band with mind-boggling stereo patches, the PMP5000 can accommodate. This sonic versatility also makes it an excellent choice for churches, where vocals and stereo recordings often share face time.

Classic Control, State-of-the-Art Sound

Leave the mic preamps at home, because the quality of sound that was once only available in the studio is ready to go wherever you do. Twelve built-in, boutique-caliber mic preamps with switchable +48 V phantom power make it possible to use either dynamic or condenser mics with the PMP5000.

Built-in Digital Effects Processor

It's also equipped with two 24-bit FX processors, each giving you 100 mind-blowing digital effect presets such as delay, chorus and reverb. Apply them to any channel, as well as to the monitors and main output. In case you're pulling double duty as sound engineer and performer, the FX processors feature a footswitch jack for remote on/off.

Changing the Channels

The PMP5000 gives you excellent flexibility to accommodate whatever a performance requires. Channels 1-12 are for mics, guitars and other mono instruments. Stereo channels 13-20 are designed to work in pairs as stereo channels, or independently for more mono instruments. All mono channels have 3-band EQ, switchable Low cut filter for eliminating infrasonics, and Clip LEDs to indicate when the input signal is too hot.

The Ins and Outs

Use the CD/TAPE IN RCA inputs to feed in external stereo signals from CD players or tape decks. The VOICE CANCELLER switch eliminates the vocals from pre-recorded music for instant karaoke applications.
CD/TAPE OUT RCA outputs send line-level signals from the mixer to a recording device. The left and right output 1/4" connectors are there in case you need to connect more power amps. Connect monitor power amps or active monitor speakers to the MON SOUND output.
A STANDBY switch mutes all mic channels during breaks, preventing the microphones from picking up noise or interference. You can leave all faders untouched while you play a CD via the CD/TAPE inputs.
The FBQ Feedback Detection system automatically shows you which frequencies are causing feedback. Just touch the FBQ button and watch the red LEDs on the 7-band graphic EQ pinpoint show you which frequencies to adjust for optimized sound, without the feedback.

Power Options

The PMP5000's POWER AMP switch toggles between three operating modes: MAIN, MON/MONO and BRIDGE (the power outputs of A and B on the back panel are added and provided at OUTPUT B). Dual mono mode allows you to use Output A for mono Mains and Output B for monitors. This clever functionality enables you to power both your mains and monitors, without the need for any additional power amps.

Small, Simple, Superb

Small, simple events call for a lightweight, easy-to-use powered mixer. BEHRINGER powered mixers are the most efficient, affordable mixers for the job. With so many incredible built-in features, it's easier than ever to lend exceptional sound quality to all kinds of public performances.

Behringer B215XL

Ergonomically shaped handles for easy carrying and setup

2 professional speaker connectors plus ¼'' jack connectors

High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life

Conceived and designed by BEHRINGER Germany

Perfection, Improved. These loudspeakers take everything musicians love about the original B215 and upgrade them with the same bass and treble/mid transducers found in our wildly popular B215A active versions for even better sound and power handling. And with integrated overload protection circuitry, they arrive ready to push it to the limit without putting their high or low frequency drivers in danger.

Triumphant Transducers

Every stitch of these loudspeakers is built to deliver, but the fact is that their transducers (woofers and tweeters) are the only part you actually hear. While some manufacturers are okay with putting off-the-shelf transducers in their boxes, we custom-design and build ours from scratch. Not only do we wind our own voice coils, we grow the trees that are processed into the paper pulp that becomes the cones. We even machine the frames and backplates. BEHRINGER's quality is truly under control.

Big Sound, Lightweight, Low Price

Big here, small there, lots of this, light on that—everyone's got their preferences, but the EUROLIVE B215XL has proportions we can all agree upon. These loudspeakers pack a clean, punchy wallop (and can handle up to 1000 Watts), they are easy to lift by their recessed handles (38.7 lbs) and are available at insanely low prices. Who wouldn't want to hook up with one of these beauties?

Get on the Stick…or Get on Down

The B215XL is perfect either as part of a PA system or as an onstage monitor. If the situation calls for a PA, mount the speakers on stands via the 35mm pole socket. From there, send a line from the MAIN OUT of a mixer (such as a XENYX 1202FX) to a power amplifier (like the EUROPOWER EP1500). Finally, attach B215XL to each of the amp's outputs. These loudspeakers have inputs for both professional speaker cable and ¼" cable. Because these loudspeakers have two parallel inputs, you can connect up to two of them to any channel on a power amp.
But they don't have to be confined to an upright position. Just lay them on their sides for use as a floor monitor. You'll find that they tilt to the ideal angle for onstage monitor wedge applications.

Choose White, Black, on or off the Wall…

You asked for it, and now we're proud to offer these amazing loudspeakers in black or white. We now also make swiveling wall-mount brackets for the B215XL. That means they're ready to fit even more comfortably into a venue's color scheme and layout. No matter what your sound or aesthetic needs may be, we make one that's just right for you!

Wario Land Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-09T12:18:00.000+03:00

It's hard to talk about the Virtual Boy without mentioning Virtual Boy Wario Land; the ill-fated system only experienced 22 games throughout its short lifespan and this lack of software has resulted in some VB games getting a better reputation than they deserve purely because there's so little else to play on the console. However, Wario's VB adventure is one game that breaks this rule; it's an amazing title in its own right and is almost worth buying a Virtual Boy system for.

Virtual Boy Wario Land is a platformer that plays a lot like the first (Game Boy) Wario Land title, with Wario acting like a slower but tougher Mario as he throws or barges through enemies and jumps across platforms and smashes blocks to clear the way through the level.

The game looks similar to its predecessor, but everything is bigger and more detailed. The 3D effect adds a lot of depth to the backgrounds that are made up of several layers. Everything is well drawn and never looks flat.
Rather than have the backgrounds as just a nifty effect, Nintendo choose to make them part of the level. At times jumping into the background is required to avoid an obstacle or to collect an item. This is done by using a jump board, several of which are placed throughout each level. You simply step on it, tap jump and Wario launches himself in to the background and, in an effective audio touch, whilst in the background the sounds of his jumps and smashes become more distant.

The 3D effect is also used on some enemies and obstacles. As you hop across the very first platforms of the game, giant spiked balls swing back-and-forth from background to foreground. You will also find that some enemies start a short distance away then move forward to attack, meaning you shouldn’t just focus on the foreground. It’s not so much that you mistake them for part of the background scenery, it’s so you can time your attacks – or perhaps just know when it’s safe to leg it.

Power-up wise the bull and dragon hats return and the eagle hat replaces the jet hat – although they do the same thing (allow flight). The bull hat allows Wario to break blocks by smashing into them once (rather than twice) and he can pound the ground to stun nearby enemies.

The dragon hat breathes fire which is a good way to defeat difficult enemies without getting too close. If you collect either the dragon or eagle hat whilst wearing the other, they combine to make the “King Dragon Hat” which gives you all special powers.

If at any time you get hit, you become the powerless “Small Wario” with a further hit resulting in the loss of a life.

There are many different types of enemies in the game, all with a different way to attack you and all with a wonderful character design. The best has to be the masked chainsaw fish, but there’s also little pointy masked creatures, bomb-dropping bats, a flying face with blades on either side and a cuddly looking character who pokes his head out from behind a tree before lobbing a spear at you.

At the end of each level there is a locked elevator door and to progress any further you will need to have picked up the key that was hidden somewhere in the level. To begin with you will find the keys without trying but as you would expect it becomes harder as you progress through the game.

Scattered throughout the level are hearts (collect 100 for an extra life) and coins for you to pick up as well as a hidden piece of treasure.

Once the elevator is unlocked you can travel to the next level but before that there are two other stops. First you can, if you want, gamble some coins on one of two mini games: one to earn extra hearts and one for extra coins.
In the heart mini game you jump between the background and foreground trying to collect the hearts or diamonds that scroll past (diamonds also award an extra life). The coin mini-game is more about luck as you pick a number, then a container hoping it contains coins to multiply your total.

The second stop before the next level is a progress screen with a map showing your current location, treasure you have found, total coins collected and the total time spent playing the game so far.

Rather than have level after level of caves, there are different types of environments in the game so at times you find yourself swimming underwater, walking though the woods or in a factory-like level. Things are kept varied so you may be dealing with quicksand in one level, then swimming up a waterfall in the next and it all looks great: cartoony but with plenty of detail.

There are a few boss battles in the game which get progressively harder and make good use of the 3D effect. The boss character starts a fair distance away, sometimes attacking from safety, before coming forward. In one battle you can jump across to the other side, so both you and he are jumping back and forth from foreground to background trying to get a chance to attack each other.

Before each boss you have to face a small spiked block. It has one vulnerable side and is easy to beat. Amusingly though, each time you face him the little fella has had upgrades. So whilst he begins by just jumping at you, for the following encounters he tries out missiles, flames and finally homing missiles. Bless.

Music changes with your location so it can be chirpy, spooky or relaxing with boss battles sounding more frantic. It all sounds good, quite catchy, never annoying and always managing to fit what’s happening onscreen.

There are a lot of sounds in the game. Some small, such as the noise from Wario’s feet as he moves about, but others like the sounds you get from bumping or smashing into something really stand out. Enemies make noises too, small squeeks, seemingly taunting you before attacking. It’s all very cartoon–like which fits the game great and adds to the experience.

The difficulty of the game depends on what you are trying to do. If you are just blasting through the levels then things are well judged with keys slowly becoming harder to find and the enemies getting tougher. If however you are trying to find all the treasure and collect lots of coins then things will be harder, especially as if you loose all your lives a piece of treasure is taken away from you. You can get it back but there is no map screen so you have to work backwards through various levels using the elevator system.

There is one big fault with the game and that is its length: there are just 14 levels. Admittedly some of them are quite long but 4 of those 14 levels are the boss battles. It’s possible to unlock a harder mode but additional levels would have been preferable.

It is however a very replayable game, helped by it having multiple endings. The treasure you picked up, the coins collected and how quickly you beat the game all affect which of the various endings you get to see. There are three save files available so you could try different types of play (one rush through, one collect everything) or you could just see how you do compared to someone else.

Conclusion

The fantastic visual design and great audio enhance this top-notch platformer. It’s a game you will keep coming back to, either to try and get a different ending or just because it’s so much fun to play through. It’s unfortunate that there are not more levels but Virtual Boy Wario Land is thoroughly deserving of it's reputation and highly recommended.

Mario Tennis Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-09T12:13:00.001+03:00

Mario’s Tennis does exactly what it says on the cartridge. It takes Mario and six other characters and places them in a Tennis game. Singles and doubles matches are available as either one-off matches or a Tournament, and standard tennis rules apply.

A launch game in Japan and the pack-in game for the Virtual Boy’s North American release, Mario’s Tennis was (back in the day) probably most people's first Virtual Boy experience, so it's obvious why it needed to show off the system's capabilities more so than most other Virtual Boy releases.

In terms of gameplay, it handles like any other tennis game you might care to mention. Movement is controlled via the left-hand d-pad and the two action buttons offer a variety of different shots. The controls are simple and responsive, meaning that the shots performed are the ones you intended. Of course a lot of tennis games manage this, but what this game does differently is use the Virtual Boy’s 3D effect to give a real feel of the court’s depth. When you are both getting ready for a serve, your opponent really does seem a great distance away.

Having selected your type of match you can then adjust the difficulty and choose between one or three sets. You then select your character (and partner if you’re playing doubles) and proceed with your match.

Aside from Mario, the other characters deciding to give tennis a try are Luigi, Princess Toadstool, Yoshi, Toad, Koopa Trooper and Donkey Kong Jr. The instruction booklet explains how all the characters vary but although you will find certain ones provide more of a challenge than others, playing as them is a different experience. There are some obvious differences - for example, Toad and Koopa Trooper can dive to reach some shots - but for the most part you will find surprisingly little to separate the characters.

Having only seven characters unfortunately makes the tournaments quite short and it's possible to win the singles tournament after only three games (and the doubles after just two).

Unlike later entries in the Mario Tennis series, this game does not feature extra powerful shots or “gimmick courts”: it is simply bog-standard tennis. It does it well but don’t be expecting anything other than a regular tennis game that happens to feature Mario characters. Following each match you are presented with a stats screen so you can see how well (or badly) you have done.

Camera movement is smooth and stays at a fixed distance from your character. The character sprites on the player’s side of the net are well drawn and possess a range of facial expressions reacting to the point that they may or may not have just won. The 3D effect works really well as you move around with the changing distance between you and the net, the ball and your opponent giving you a real sense of the size of the court. Get too close to your opponent however and you will see that they look like a cardboard cut-out – and a heavily pixelated one at that.

A tennis court is just a tennis court, but Nintendo attempt to make things a little more visually interesting by having a selection of backgrounds that appear in the different matches you play, so you can look at pipes in one match and hills in the next. Lakitu (strangely not animated) keeps the score and sometimes something else will appear in the sky such as birds, blimps or fireworks.

There are a few different music tracks that play during the game and they all sound good. As you would expect from a Mario game it’s upbeat and catchy. Some of it is perhaps a bit too “beepy” but as the music changes within each set (not just match-to-match) you don’t get chance even to consider getting sick of it.

There are several sound effects for the different shots you can perform. They are not realistic but appropriate, with the smash sound effect being particularly satisfying. Perhaps the best use of sound though is when you miss your shot and you can hear the ball slowly bounce behind you.

The difficulty of the game is well judged with the easiest setting being perfect for getting used to things as you try out just how far your lobs and volleys travel. Once you’ve gotten the hang of it all, selecting one of the higher settings provides more of a challenge.

Despite only having two modes, the game is surprisingly replayable. The doubles mode adds a bit of unpredictability to things as you’re relying on a CPU character to pick up some of the shots. What would have really have extended the game’s life though is a two-player mode. Of course (outside of the homebrew scene) a Virtual Boy link cable was never produced but it’s still something that is greatly missed: a tennis game that doesn't offer the opportunity to play against a friend feels wrong, somehow.

Conclusion

The small character roster makes the tournaments laughably short but this is a solid, if simple, tennis game. Good music and graphics combined with the excellent 3D effect of the court ensure that Mario’s Tennis is an excellent introduction to the Virtual Boy, plus it's cheap and easy to find these days. If only Nintendo had released that link cable, though...

V Tetris Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-09T12:06:00.001+03:00

Blocks fall down the screen and the player has to place them to make lines. Get a line and it disappears. Get multiple lines for extra points. Alexey Pajitnov’s falling block puzzle game has been ported to many different systems over the years, all essentially playing the same, only differentiated by the variety of modes available from version to version.

In V-Tetris, mode A is the standard “endless” mode of play where you try to get as many lines and points as possible. It starts off slowly, but every 10 lines the level moves up one and there's an increase in speed, so whilst you have plenty of time to decide where to place blocks at the start, in later levels, when your screen is filling up, things get a lot more difficult. If you fancy a bit more of a challenge from the off, your starting level can be adjusted from 0-19.

Mode B requires you to clear 25 lines, and again your start level can be altered (0-9) as can the amount of blocks already filling the screen. With only 25 lines needed to succeed it pays to try and get as many multiples as possible to increase your points haul.

These two modes appeared in the classic Game Boy port that had been released six years previously, not surprising considering developer Bullet-Proof Software was involved with both. Although V-Tetris loses the 2-player option of its predecessor, it adds a third mode of play.

Like the first, the third mode is endless and your starting level can be set from 0-19. The difference is that by using the L and R buttons (or right D-pad) the screen shifts a block left or right. It’s not possible to move it by holding the buttons down, so if you want to move more than one block you have to keep tapping, which is slightly annoying. The size of the playing field is doubled with any blocks in the currently unused area visible in the background. Think of the playing area as cylindrical and you will understand how it works. As it’s just the blocks that appear to move it seems a little strange at first but once you get used to it there’s a lot of fun to be had.

Having extra space within which to drop blocks at first seems to make things easier. After all, if there’s nowhere useful to put the current block you can just nudge the blocks along until you find either an empty space or somewhere to slot it in and get you a few lines. However, you soon find you have lots of potential lines being built up and as a piece begins to fall you have to think where would be the best place to put it. For instance, if a straight piece falls you have to decide whether to slot it into a two block gap for a guaranteed double, or tap away in the hope of getting to the opposite side of the playing area where there’s a potential tetris on offer.

In mode C you really have to get multiple lines: you can still get single lines but doing so causes a straight piece to fall in to the background area and of course it doesn’t land anywhere useful. Sometimes a single line is all you can get and it’s necessary to avoid filling your screen up, but it means you have to keep an eye on the background to make sure things aren’t getting out of hand over there.

Compared to some versions of Tetris three modes isn’t that many, but the three here are all good and will keep you occupied for some time. There are high score tables for all modes of play but unfortunately there is no save function, meaning your glory only lasts as long as the machine is switched on.

Graphically the playing area is what you would expect. It’s 2D and the red and black display means different patterns are used for the tetrominoes rather than colours. All the blocks change to the same pattern once in place and when you get a line it pushes forward slightly before disappearing. In mode C, the playing area looks a bit more 3D due to the blocks you can see in the background.

There are two backgrounds to choose from for each mode (one static, one animated) and they are in 3D, although only slightly, presumably not to be too distracting. They include things such as a star field, an underwater scene and a dragon outside a castle. In theory this keeps things varied, but of course once you really get into your game you’re not focusing on anything other than the playing area.

Sounds are what you would expect from a Tetris game as you rotate and drop blocks into place, but the music is disappointing. For modes A and B there are three tracks available or you can choose to play without; there’s a fourth track exclusive to mode C but bizarrely this is your only option.

The first track is a spacey sounding one. It whines a bit and is repetitive - although it’s not annoying it just doesn’t seem appropriate for Tetris. The second starts similarly but then does something different: though not as whiney as the first, it is however a bit too downbeat. The third track again has a spacey feel to it but it’s a lot more fun sounding, as is the mode C track. They both fit well with the game and don’t do anything to annoy although they aren’t particularly catchy – certainly not as memorable as Korobeiniki (Game Boy A-Type).

Conclusion

V-Tetris gains absolutely nothing from being on the Virtual Boy as the 3D effect is only really used for the backgrounds. The music could have been better and it’s harmed by not having a save feature for the high scores. However it’s still Tetris, which is as simple and addictive as it’s ever been and mode C is excellent.

Virtual Bowling Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-09T11:54:00.000+03:00

Just like Tetris, there were two Bowling games released for the Virtual Boy and just like Tetris, each region only got one of these games. While North American gamers were treated to Nester's Funky Bowling, the Japanese exclusive was Virtual Bowling which features various weights of ball, different lane conditions and provides two ways to play plus a training mode. The aim as in any bowling game is to knock down as many pins as possible, earning extra points for strikes and spares – and getting either of those in the final frame rewards you with an extra throw.

The action is viewed from a first-person perspective as you line up your shot, your ball at this stage represented by a simple circle. The 3D works well as you look at the lane in front of you, although - as was the case in Nester's Funky Bowling - it doesn’t look quite long enough. Upon releasing your ball some authentic rolling sounds accompany it as it travels down the lane as the camera follows, before the ball crashes in to the pins with a wonderful clatter. Should you get a strike or spare you are treated to a replay from behind the pins, where curiously the lane does look the right length and the speed of your throw is given in both kilometres and miles per hour.

The controls work very well. You position yourself with the left d-pad but use the right to pick where you are aiming. Once happy you are presented with a meter swinging left to right, that determines the spin that will be put on your ball, this is followed by a power meter where you have to press the A button twice. The first time determines power and then as the marker moves back down you have to aim to press it again when it reaches a circle. Doing so allows you to pull off the shot you intended but missing the circle causes your ball to veer off from its intended path. It can be difficult to get right at first but it soon becomes a lot easier and you will find yourself purposefully missing that circle to compensate for some incorrect spin you may have added.

There are a number of speech samples in the game that play including for strikes, doubles and turkeys – the later of which includes a floppy-eared creature bouncing down the lane. The samples are not the best quality but you can still tell what is being said and they add to the atmosphere.

Before each game there is a screen where you can make a number of adjustments. You can chose from three types of power meter: power, normal and technical. Power is obviously the strongest but you will be faced with a fast moving meter should you select it, technical is the weakest but has the slowest moving meter where as normal of course falls somewhere in the middle of the two. Next you can choose to bowl left or right handed – which makes no difference whatsoever to the gameplay but does effect which side of the screen the meter appears on. You then pick from the wide selection of balls: weights ranging from 6 to 16 pounds are available. You can also adjust the amount of wax on the lane, picking from no, half or full.

The final option is where you decide if you want the background music on or off. The music that plays is quite catchy but does get repetitive after a while. If you do choose to play without you are instead treated to sounds from other games being played – though it’s a bit strange when no games can be seen in play in the nearby lanes.

If you choose ‘Standard’ from the title screen you bowl for one game, aiming to get as many points as possible. Adjusting the wax on the lane affects the behaviour of your ball to keep things interesting, as you have to change your tactics for each, so having mastered one you can then try another. Like all bowling games there is a certain combination of power, spin and direction that will get you a strike every time and it’s unfortunate that once you’ve found it, its very easy to pull off with the Normal meter. If you are finding it becomes far to easy, you can of course just switch to one of the other two options. There is a scoreboard for you to try and get on but unfortunately the game doesn’t save your score and so this is lost as soon as the machine is switched off.

There is one other main mode of play, and whilst a two-player option would be great, what is on offer instead is still fun to play. The other mode is Tournament where you compete against four computer controlled players. You play three games and should you have the highest score at the end you get to go through to the next round… where you compete against the same four players. Luckily they do get better as you progress and to give them a bit of character they will pop up between frames to compliment or mock your bowling ability or just to declare that they’re not out of it just yet.

There are four rounds in total and although the wax on the lane is fixed for each round all of the other options are available to you at the beginning of each game. With the wax level changing between rounds, it adds to the challenge as you get used to one set of conditions and then have to adapt to another: and as your opponents get better you have less time to do so. If you don’t have the time for the full tournament you can come back to it later as your progress is saved with passwords, presented after each completed round.

Conclusion

Virtual Bowling features impressive visuals and atmospheric sounds, which combined with great controls make it a lot of fun to play. There are however some problems such as the default power meter option making getting a strike too easy and the game not saving your high scores. A two player option would be a great benefit but the tournament mode is excellent and overall Virtual Bowling is a very impressive bowling sim.

Galactic Pinball Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-09T11:43:00.001+03:00

Launch the ball on to the table and use flippers to stop it falling out of the playing area, smacking it around the table over ramps and against targets to get points. That’s how pinball works in amusement arcades and it’s how it’s worked for the many computer and video game versions released over the years. Galactic Pinball is no different.

Visually the game appears a little odd. Partly because the ball is actually a puck, but mostly because the tables are all set against a star field backdrop. The 3D effect is good as you see the table stretching back in front of you, but whilst the intention seems to be to give the impression of a table many miles long, it instead looks like a regular-sized one that curiously has no base to it. However the posts, ramps, flippers and other objects come together to make solid, well designed tables.

The controls feel very natural with the L and R buttons controlling the flippers which move as you’d expect. You can also use the d-pads but using the two triggers feels more like controlling a real machine. A is used to launch your puck with the length held down (as in all other pinball games) determining the power. Should you want to give the table a nudge, this is done with the B button and as you would expect overdoing it causes a tilt, disabling your flippers. The behaviour of the puck is spot on, deflecting off objects as it should, travelling as far as you hit it and falling (when gravity takes over) at the right speed.

There are four tables that are all different, due to the position and number of flippers and the arrangement of targets. As you play you will find different things to give you points such as spelling out words or triggering a roulette wheel. Collect enough tokens on a table and you are transported to a bonus table where you flick your puck at stars to get extra points – or if you prefer you can just collect an instant (but potentially smaller) bonus.
Certain actions can even effect the appearance of the table. For instance sending the puck to the “Alien Lair” target on the Alien table causes an alien head to appear providing you with new scoring opportunities.

The sounds in the game are typical bloops and blips as you rack up your points. There’s also a few speech samples such as “bonus” and the table names – though they aren’t always particularly clear.
The music quality is mixed. It has, unsurprisingly, a spacey feel to it. Open up a time-limited target and a fast exciting track plays. Also the low-key atmospheric beep-bipping music that plays over the opening title and adjustment screens, slowly builds and works very well but the highlight has to be the track that plays on the Colony table that has a great exploration vibe to it. Less impressive are the tracks that play for the Alien and Cosmic tables which are chirpy to the point of annoyance. They don’t really distract but it’s a pity that there isn’t an option to turn the music off or perhaps listen to one of the other tracks.

The game saves the high scores of each table on a list which adds a lot of replayability as you either compete with someone else or try to better your own record. With four tables to learn your way around, it keeps your interest but as different as they are, you are just whacking a puck around which can make things a bit repetitive. However it’s this simplicity that makes it addictive and it certainly won’t bother you if you are busy chasing a high score.

A bit of variety is provided by the addition of fun mini games on two of the tables. On the Colony table you take control of a cannon and blast meteors that fly past whilst on the Cosmic one you are given control of Samus Aran’s ship to take out a swarm of enemy fighters. Hmmm, mixing Metroid with pinball, now there’s an idea…

Conclusion

Some dodgy music aside, this is a decent pinball (or rather pinpuck) game, with everything physics-wise behaving as you would expect. That the 3D effect doesn’t convey the size that was probably intended is forgivable as it is a simple and addictive game that the Virtual Boy’s control pad is well suited for. After achieving a self-set target it may be a while before you feel the urge to play again, but when you are hoping to reach a certain score Galactic Pinball is a game you will find yourself playing a lot – and enjoying immensely.

Red Alarm Review(Virtual Boy)

2011-08-04T11:33:00.000+03:00

Red Alarm is a 3D shooter where you take your Tech-Wing Fighter and battle through five enemy-filled levels, each ending with a showdown with a boss character.

When it was originally released the first thing people noticed were the wire frame graphics, bringing to mind games such as Battlezone and Elite; although these were both excellent titles, they had originally been released in the previous decade and this made Red Alarm seem technically limited with many commenting on the “out dated” visuals. This is unfair, as everything here runs faster and smoother and there’s a lot more happening on screen, both in terms of variety and numbers of enemies. Red Alarm also gets described as a “wire frame Starfox” which is fairer - though again, it's not completely accurate.

Although there is just the one route from level’s start to level’s end your ship has some degree of freedom as it is able to turn back on itself to either collect a power-up you may have missed or just to pick off an enemy that annoyed you. The ship has two forward speeds with a third available should you collect a booster power-up and you can also bring your ship to a standstill or even reverse. This car-like behaviour seems a bit odd for your space fighter but it does come into play against some enemies so it’s not a pointless addition.

Despite being just wire frame, there are many different types of enemy. You will find yourself up against fighters, walkers, mechs, giant faces, floating hands, flying creatures and much more. When destroyed they break apart like some delicate matchstick model and the opening level even features matchstick men running to their ships.
The levels themselves are varied as well; although the game begins and ends flying through the corridors of an enemy base, in between there’s a cave level (with waterfalls), an underwater level and a level with Aztec-like architecture.

At the end of each level you enter a “Danger Zone”: a large round room that houses a boss character. The trio of beasts that await you at the end of level 3 are simple looking but the rest (such as level 6’s flying mech or the totem pole of level 4) look great.

The 3D effect gives a real feel of the size of the surroundings but you can only see so far in front of you, after that it’s just black with the rest popping up as you move forward. It can at times lessen the effect but it’s rare for anything troublesome to appear without warning.

The only other minor grumble with the visuals occurs following a frantic battle with lots of enemies. If you haven’t been paying full attention to your surroundings, suddenly you find yourself looking at several shapes in front of you unable to tell which is an opening and which is a solid wall. Thankfully crashing in to walls does not cause damage – you just bump against them and, again, it’s not something that happens often.

Aside from the standard view there are three alternative camera views available: directly behind, cockpit view, and ¾ view. With the 3D effect, the cockpit view has obvious appeal although it doesn’t offer you any advantage. The ¾ view is completely pointless. It looks good as the camera looks back at your ship but it’s impractical to play that way.

The controls feel very natural. By default (four set-ups available) the left D-pad controls your ship and holding the L button allows for tighter turning. A and B control speed, R fires and the right D-pad is used for strafing moves, just like you would find in your typical FPS shooter. Strafing initially seems pointless but as you progress it becomes very handy for avoiding objects or enemy fire you find yourself hurtling towards.

With Red Alarm making use of every button on the control pad, missiles have to be fired using the same button as your cannon. Your ship - if not firing at oncoming enemies - will try to get a lock on nearby targets. When it obtains a successful lock on you tap fire to launch a missile. Obviously missiles do more damage but there's a delay which means if you have a lot of enemy fire heading your way you’re better off performing an evasive move and using your cannon.

Like far too many Virtual Boy games there is no save function to keep track of high scores, but it’s less of an issue here as your score is not something you pay attention to. You just enjoy working through the levels aiming to get to the end. There is a final boss battle after level 5, but the game feels a couple of levels too short. Playing through however is a lot of fun and there are 3 difficulty levels so it’s a game you will keep coming back to.

The sound effects in the game are good with effective noises for the changing speeds of your ship and standard cannon firing effects and explosions. There are also a few speech samples in the game such as “Fantastic” (heard upon completing a level). They hiss a bit but are clear and overall they add to the atmosphere. The music is very good and manages to match the excitement of what’s happening on screen. There’s a different track for each level and boss so audibly things are as varied as the visuals.

The difficulty is well judged. The opening level is a gentle introduction, giving you time to pick off the enemy as you get used to your ship, but with each level the number and difficulty of your opponents increases. There are shield, missile and booster powerups available to make things a little bit easier and you have 3 continues – although annoyinglu, you have start back from the beginning of the level when you die as there are no mid-stage checkpoints. Aside from your shields being depleted the only other way to die is to run out of fuel. Although there are no fuel pickups, you have plenty on-board and it's unlikely that you will run out (although it should be mentioned that level 4 features a maze-like section where it's easy to become lost).

When you complete (or die on) a level you can choose to watch a replay. Using the two d-pads you can move the camera round your ship and zoom in and out as you admire your work. You can fast foward the action but strangely the programmers forgot to include the ability to rewind. Still, it’s a neat addition to an already impressive game.

Conclusion

There are a few things to fault with the visuals, but the 3D effect is impressive and there's a lot of variety in the wire frame graphics. It’s a little on the short side but Red Alarm is a blast to play and remains one of the best reasons to own a Virtual Boy; the fact that it's cheap to pick up these days is a bonus.
