Austin Powers: Oh Behave, Nintendo Gameboy

Video game tie-ins of big screen movies are now as common as any other video game genre. While some of these games have proven to be valuable to the industry's portfolio, others are better left alone. The thought of Austin Powers on Game Boy is a terrifying prospect that doesn't bear thinking about. Nevertheless, it's happened, and while it seems a pointless production, that's not to say its a bad game or no fun to play. Upon switching on your handheld, you will come across what appears to be a PC start up screen and a memory check. Soon after, you will realise that the nature of this game is to act as a PC desktop. Oh Behave is not so much a single game as it is a PC utility disc. Before getting into one of the game's three sub-games you might as well have a look at some of the other groovy stuff. You can customise your fake desktop with a number of backgrounds and even use the game's 'shagulator'. The three mini games consist of a Rock, Paper, Scissors contest, a fake Pac-Man game and a weird board game. Surprisingly, each one is actually a lot of fun to play, and strangely addictive. These games also give you the opportunity to battle against your favourite Austin Powers characters, including Dr. Evil and Fat Bastard. There's nothing special here, but I have no doubt that anyone strange enough to enjoy Austin Powers is going to relish this. There are also three others to collect in the series. Groovy!
