If you fail... you and your once-peaceful world will pay."

Skeleton Warriors is flat., June 20, 2002
Reviewer: Michael Lopez from Ontario, California
Skeleton Warriors is a 1996 release for the Playstation One console, and in today's era of gameplay it shows its age. The games begins flat, or basically two dimensional, as opposed to a three dimensional environment that can be freely explored. This means that the character basically moves across a background that moves from right to left across the game screen, and the gameplay cannot deviate from this very flat plane. When compared to the later games of PSOne which really evolved and pushed the system's capacity, this game seems in its technological design unambitious. Keep in mind that this game was released the same year as the first Tomb Raider which is comparitively excellent. Skeleton Warriors is distinctly arcade in its style, and does appeal to that very young gamer who rarely distinguished between great and mediocre games. If you are young or interested in a piece of gaming history this game may be worth the purchase. If you're a gamer that expects sophistication in the technological limits of gameplay, this game will only be amusing for its archival qualities. It today's market it is best compared to the graphic quality and capacity of some of the better of Nintendo's Gameboy Advance games.

This is the coolest game ever!, January 12, 2002
Reviewer: An Amazon.com Customer
This game is awesome. There are tons of levels and each one is different and has its own surprises and secret parts to it. The graphics are great too. You might think this game [isn't very good] because its only .98, but it is one of the best games i've ever played. If you are debating on whether to buy this game or not, buy it. I did, and I love it. By the way, i'm 15, not 4.
