Title: Buying Fantavision
Post by: magicmansony on January 04, 2001, 10:52:04 PM

Hi I was wondering if anyone has played fantavision and if so is it worth $20?  And also is Gameday worth $20 too?

Thanks!

fantavision is worth 20 dollars if you...

ONE: Like Puzzle-games

TWO: Like fireworks

THREE: Are a pyromaniac.

Decide. I suggest you to buy one. But that\'s just a suggestion.

I haven\'t really played Fantavision, just tested it. But by the first impression I\'d give it 8/10; it\'s a decent game. But I was thinking to buy it.

But if you\'re searching for puzzle-games, buy aqua aqua. It\'ll sure be very good.

Joyda has spoken.

It looks odd to me, but who am I to judge a game if I havent played it? :)

I have it and I\'d say 6/10. I wouldn\'t pay $50 for it, but $20 perhaps. The best thing would be if you could test it out before buying it.

I haven\'t tried the other game, so I can\'t judge that one.

I bought it yesterday for $19.99 at Eb world (new).

I played it last night. The visuals are absolutely beautiful. Plus you can do replays of your wins, and change camera, pause, add effects from snow and rain to blur and "psycadelic".

The game plays different. If you are old enough to remember "Missle Command", it\'s like the reverse. Instead of shooting missles at lines coming toward you, you are shooting(connecting) lines at missles(fireworks) shooting away from you.

It\'s like a hyper-speed connect the dots. You have to catch fireworks of the same color and then explode them before they fizzle. Two player mode too. It\'s wild.

You can also put your saved replays on continuous shuffle, so you can use the pretty display as a "screensaver" at your next 4th of July party:)

It\'s worth $20.

hmmm... ok :)

You got me convinced.

I\'m going to buy the game when its price drops a bit. Still I\'d have to pay full game price of it here... maybe little too much... right?

I think of it as a perfect party-game.

And the 2-player mode must be fun...

I\'d score it 8/10. As a full price game (yike).

Yes, the 2 player mode is very much fun... heehee... prepare for some violent name-calling and probably ye olde boot to the head. It gets nasty if you play too long with a friend. And kick his(/her) butt all the time :p

Personally I haven\'t played it...but I heard that Fantavision is one of PS2\'s great underplayed (does that even make sense??) games...as for Gameday...I would go with Madden over that anyday.
