I bought this because I loved the Power Rangers when I was a kid and when I found this game for such a low price on ebay, I HAD to buy it. It brings back so many memories when I was little and the music is great and the controls are very easy to master that anyone over the age of 6 could do. I like that the game isn't too short but it could be longer and I forgot how bad graphics were back in the mid 90s. All in all though, GREAT game. Buy if your a fan of Power Rangers even after almost 20 years after the games release.
I'm not using my personal opinion about the game, I'm using what my 4 year old thinks about it. And he loves it. It's got the original song from the TV show and all 5 power rangers. He gets real into it. The graphics aren't bad at all and the music is tolerable. It's very easy for him to play and enjoy. I recently found a different game with the White Ranger on it. That'll make an excellent stocking stuffer.
First of all, I want to admit that I accidentally bought the wrong game. I clearly remembered a super Nintendo game that had Power Rangers, and had a two player co-op mode. Unfortunately, this game does NOT have co-op, which was a bit of a disappointment for me. However, I decide to give the game a go anyway, seeing as I paid for it, and it made sense to play a game that I had played for. Another thing you should know about me is that I really am not that good at video games. I have yet to beat the second level, but that still doesn't mean that I haven't noticed some trends in the game. After playing the game for a few hours, I realized that this was my kind of game, seeing as there is very little actual gaming skill involved. It isn't like a lot of modern games with hundreds of button combinations that I have to memorize and forget the moment I have to use them. The simple attack moves in this game tailor to the new gamer that just wants to push the buttons hard and fast and still be effective. That's the technique I've found to the most effective, which works for me, since that's what I do in the more complicated games of today. Yep, I'm a button masher. I did notice a few flaws with the game though that really frustrated me. First of all, being a woman, I thought it was hilarious that the pink and yellow ranger essentially turned into men when they turned into their ranger forms. I thought maybe I was just being feminist, but I had a few of my guy friends over to play with me, and they immediately said, "woah, she turned into a dude!" There isn't anything fundamentally wrong with that, but I just thought it was extremely entertaining. Second, there are very few checkpoints in the game. For example, the second level seemed extremely long to me, and when I inevitably died (near the end mind you), I was immediately transported to the beginning. At this point, i was extremely frustrated, and gave up. However, I know that I am one of the least impatient people ever, and that in combination with my lack of gaming skills was lethal to this game for me. I'm sure I'll pull it out and play it again every now and then, seeing as it's not a bad game entirely. The first time my ranger turned into a power ranger was electric!!! However, I must say that it probably will not be my favorite game.Read full review
I bought this item as birthday gift for my 6 year old son. He absolutely loves the games. It is great that it has easy controls to learn. For anyone over the age of about 7 the game would quickly become boring. Also, I dislike there is no two player feature.
My oldest son came to me with some games for an old gaming system that we have. As a parent with young children you still love to see their eyes light up again. Just because something is old you don't always disgard it. Sometimes everything old is new again as he is beginning to discover. This is like a new toy all over again and to me it was well worth the couple of $$$ to see him enjoy something all over again like the old atari games and arcade games that we grew up with. Now they are available on the newer gaming systems and it is as if we were little kids again ourselves. Thank you to the people that realize the value in some of this "junk" and hang on to it like ouselves thinking that one day someone else will appreciate it.
