Reviews in a Flash

Reviews in a Flash use videos of actual gameplay along with overlaid graphics to demonstrate a game's ups and downs while you watch the review. None of this, "Read about a problem and then see a video of it afterwards." We don't complain or praise something without showing it to you at the same time. It's more informative than a plain video clip, and more entertaining than reading a full review. Add in other interesting facts, and you have nintendo.about.com's Reviews in a Flash.
Review in a Flash: Battalion Wars Review (GCN)
Nintendo's Battalion Wars is an action game mixed with elements of strategy. Once a part of the Advance Wars brand, Battalion Wars became its own game somewhere during development, and now offers decent action, lots of units, and poor strategy. If you're looking for a war game that does not treat the subject too seriously, this title might be for you.
Review in a Flash: Rainbow Six Lockdown (GCN)
Rainbow Six Lockdown has bad A.I. that just has to be seen to believe. While you can read about bullets that pass through your body without doing damage, often for minutes at a time, you don't really understand until you see it for yourself. Taking cover makes you more likely to die? This Review in a Flash shows examples of gameplay, sniper sequences, and bad A.I.
