CGRundertow 007: NIGHTFIRE for Game Boy Advance Video Game Review

[TheCageMage]

If you hate the way it looks when this game is blown up to TV screen size, then wouldn't the smart thing be to NOT blow it up to TV screen size? Just sayin'.

[supermariosunshine64]

Actually this game looks pretty impressive, THIS IS THE GBA GODDAMMIT

[MrThestig8]

I'd love to see the PS2 or GameCube version...

[rewers6]

@MrThestig8 it's wikid! looks and plays sooo well. I play mine on GC and it is great

[RedEggsCereal]

If this was on the snes it would be awesome

[mikelmyer]

This game looks decent it's hard to find a first person shooter for the gba I would play this

[fatgamer176]

I've not played it, but based on the video, I think the 3D's actually pretty good. It's technically impressive with what they squeezed out of the GBA. Level design's not bad either.

Does look hard to control though. 

[BaileyandBrycebros]

i think it looks fun

[ShakeAlmighty]

Not every game is going to play on your own terms and if you can't accept that then perhaps you shouldn't be review the game. You're a good reviewer when you like a game, perhaps stick with those.

[RobbanFoxer]

This is pretty impressive... they PORTED the game to the GBA not a new game but PORTED... well... it looks like a port because in the gameplay you can see maps from the console version...

[smashbrosfan25]

the ps2 version is awsome

[MrTHECLASSICPRO]

Whats with the thumbs down? Its a pretty good review.

[TheMrminimario]

I didn't know you can take a PS2 or gamecude or whatever on the go..

GBA can!

[SjaakadeliC]

this review sucks balls.

[Quimbyrbg]

Review summary: After a few minutes of playing a GameBoy Advance game, you'll be wishing that you were playing a N64...

[annythepip]

Why was this version even made? Cash grabs always suck.

[AFIDD21]

I find it hard to belive just how many know it all's comment on here. It's comical that people after every review think that they can do better and know better. All reviewers have bad days but its obvious the laser pen was for a joke and he's right about this game, it's a bad game and if i'd have paid full price for this when it came out I have felt like I was robbed. games like this are too much for the GBA and it shows when you play it. no wonder so many people leave CGR......

[PimblyCharles]

Goldeneye is one of the best CONSOLE shooters of all time. Compare it to PC exclusive FPS, it doesn't come close.

[LAtrailers]

Please Eric, leave CGR.

[Goldstar127]

Dislikes are for Eric being a dumbass and sucking at this.

[zendertaker]

2xtreme review, and now this? really, dude... you fucking suck as a reviewer

[PeanutKai]

2:51 you weren't on a level you were on the push start screen.

[BattlefieldJoe97]

21 likes with 21 dislikes WTF?!

[Furmanov18]

20 LIKES 20 DISLIKES! My eyes may decieve me!

[darkmandoom1]

wtf!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dajam9035]

2:02 xD

[RedEggsCereal]

1:35 its not supposed to be played on a big screen tv

[spiderjerusalem100]

Doesn't actually look all that bad. For a GBA game at least.

[kevinruiz91]

Do it 4 the gamecube cuase I bought it on ebay 4 399 and want 2 c if its good

[TheChubbybird]

Looks like minecraft

[iwanabbilly]

@Imnotan00b That was copied and pasted from somewhere, probably wiki

[Imnotan00b]

@iwanabbilly yeah no shit

[iwanabbilly]

@Imnotan00b congratulations on your paste job, it made you sound intillectual right? that was the idea

[Imnotan00b]

@iwanabbilly if you're trying to make a point, you use external sources. that's exactly what i did. i don't see what's wrong with that.

[FastTquick]

Mind telling me why you're even reviewing the Game Boy Advance version of this game in the first place? Everyone one knows GBA versions of console games can't even compare to their big screen counterparts.

[Hanagigi]

I'm feeling like unsubbing from the undertow, it's not that reviewful anymore, especially the pc ones.

[nintendoboy17]

@Imnotan00b Whoops, my mistake! But really, it's hard to tell that it's 32 bit when most of it's best looking games look like they are 16-bit and due to the fact that GBA can't handle the 3D graphics the PS1 can do.

[Imnotan00b]

@nintendoboy17 Yeah, exactly. Not many developers made their games look truly amazing on the system, with the exception of Konami and a handful of others.

[lildecable]

He has to remember this is a 3D FPS running on GBA, give it a chance

[getsomegames]

@lildecable ok that doesn't mean anything the developers obviously knew the GBA couldn't handle 3d polygons, so they should of made a 2d side scrolling shooter or not have made the game at all.

[lildecable]

@getsomegames well the GBA could handle it cause its right there up on screen. Also it's more imaginative and impressive to do a FPS

[Cidiyance]

@lildecable At this time, would you really want to play it? As best as they tried, it wasn't needed, valient never the less.

[lildecable]

@Cidiyance still

[UltimateGameNerd]

@lildecable true and besides it looks better on the gba because it has a smaller screen and smaller pixels

[nintendoboy17]

The opening part of the review... Eric, you do not use a damn laser watch on the enemies (this can be said for ANY James Bond game). You use guns or your fists. And here you are again bashing a game because you suck at it (you pulled the same crap with Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire).

This is the GBA, the 3D graphics aren't going to be that good.

It's official, you are CGR's own version of the Irate Gamer (Chris Bores). This needs to be re-reviewed by someone else.

[Bigtizzle420]

@nintendoboy17 He didnt hate on this game all that much, at least not as much as you're hating on him. He was probably using the watch laser all for fun. Stop taking shit way too seriously and you sir will have more fun in life. Its his opinion and that is what ALL game reviews are made of, the reviewers opinion. I am not hating on your opinion of him sir i am just saying dont hate on others for their opinions.

[jarianb15]

@nintendoboy17 Exactly, i used to play this alot when it came out and thought it was great. He really should be fired from classic game room.

[RegBeta]

@nintendoboy17 Or better yet....REVIEW THE PLAYSTATION 2, GAMECUBE, OR XBOX VERSION'S OF THIS GAME!!!!! WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU WASTE YOUR TIME REVIEWING THE GBA VERSION, KNOWING THAT THE OTHER GAME CONSOLES I JUST MENTIONED ARE FAR MORE SUPERIOR IN EVERYWAY?!?!?

[superhotguyodell]

awesome

[RedWolf3487]

If the GBA is 32bit, why does this look worse than Doom for 32X?

[Chaoitcme]

This game looks horrible.

[bob1390020]

@wwefuture01 That explains why your acting like a kid

[wwefuture01]

@bob1390020 milk and cookies ftw

[bob1390020]

@thobby120 I agree and he's also an xbox fanboy

[wwefuture01]

@bob1390020 i only own a wii ftw

[wwefuture01]

i thought this was the ps3

[thobby120]

@wwefuture01 Why would you think that? PS3 has clearly better graphics, doesn't have that purple border, and no Z button.

[UNSCArcher]

@thobby120 Because he's a troll

[wwefuture01]

@UNSCArcher trol trol trol i live under you bed

[Nintendogamr123]

@wwefuture01

Really? And I thought trolls lived under bridges.

[wwefuture01]

@thobby120 i have no soul

[88119966]

3rd

[jjalepeno55]

[cam5478]
