A tedious, boring game based on the long running horror franchise. You play as a camp counselor running around trying to save the kids and fight Jason. This game has a lot of problems, and you'd be better off watching the first movie.

Mario Power Tennis has offensive and defensive moves which can't be turned off except in multiplayer. They add a neat new element to gameplay, but you have to watch a predone 2-3 second animation sequence every time. It's a bit disruptive to gameplay when these happen 3 or 4 times every rally. It ...

First of all, why the hell would anyone want to use their gba as a controller and tons of stupid cords when you could easily use a regular gamecube controller.

Somewhat more laboured than the original, this is still an agreeable arcade racer. It retains the fun of it's predecessor, whilst adding new features.
