New 8bit games: Crystal Castles 3 stars (out of four) - great for kids, my 4 year old is completely mesmerized at the moment. Into the Eagle's Nest - it is a similar scenario to Gauntlet, but a WWII setting. However the graphics are ABSOLUTELY AWESOME and play is FASTER than Gauntlet. For an 8-bit game this baby's VERY IMPRESSIVE. A MUST have for all 8bit gamers. 4 out of 4 stars!
