SILVER SURFER NES: ONE PAW UP! STEVEBURTO QUICK REVIEW (05)
AVGN made this game an icon of the NES with his review. Actually its not all that. Outside of the difficulty and great soundtrack, its largely skip-able. But you gotta beat it to get street cred with the other old bald retro dorks. SHOW THEM YOUR POWA!
PLUS
+Pretty Hard but...
+Not as hard as its reputation. Nevertheless...
+Don't tell them that. You beat Silver Surfer damn it. You're the best!
+ A soundtrack among soundtracks. Its weird and great!
NEGATIVE
- Much better shooters on NES, so mediocre on its own.
- If you're not maxed on powerups, you suck.
- Bosses are stupid
- Some bullets are too small and blend into the background
- The surfer is a little too big.
