Impossible Not To Frustrate – UFO has turned their Johnny character into their main mascot. Originally a KungFu master, LCD star and shooting gallery bandit, Johnny is shaping up to be the guy for any job (just like Mario). Unfortunately, the 3rd time for this generic character is not a charm as Johnny Impossible is…

REVIEW – Crimson Shroud (3DS eShop)
A Literal Tabletop RPG – Crimson Shroud is a standout 3DS eShop downloadable title and labor of love created by Yasumi Matsuno of Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy Tactics fame. With wordy text boxes, layers of menus, and a complete lack of animation and fancy visuals, this niche title will undoubtedly please fans of the…
REVIEW – Kinect Party (XBLA/Kinect)
Let’s Get The Party Started – Last year Double Fine released Happy Action Theater to the XBLA, a “mini-game” compilation that had players using the Kinect in fun and creative ways. I put quotes around “mini-game” because they are not really games as opposed to activities since there really is no way to win or…
REVIEW – Chuck E. Cheese’s Alien Defense Force (DSiWare)
Saving Earth With A Watergun – If the world was under attack by aliens, who should be elected to save it? The President? Jesus? Superman? Bruce Willis? Nope. The answer is Chuck E. Cheese – the rabid rat mascot who likes to feed young children horrible pizza and dip them in disease laden ballpits. And…
REVIEW – Aero Porter 3DS eShop
Lots of Baggage – Aero Porter is the second game of the Guild01 compilation. Liberation Maiden was released by Suda51 a few weeks ago and now Aero Porter is the latest game by Yoot Saito, most famous for creating Seaman on Dreamcast. Aero Porter is an airport baggage sim and gameplay is somewhat difficult to…
REVIEW – Midway Arcade Origins (360)
Blast From The Past – Compilation games are nothing new. Namco, Konami, and even Nintendo constantly find ways and excuses to re-release old games… but for some reason gamers re-buy games all the time and rarely think twice. Just look at all the HD Collections on PS3/360, the Wii Virtual Console catalog, PSN and XBLA…
REVIEW – Capcom Digital Collection (360)
Bang For Your Buck – Back in March 2012, Capcom released their Digital Collection – one disc that is composed of eight of their XBLA games. Originally retailing for $40, this disc was essentially a 50% off compilation disc when it debuted. But now that time has passed, it is possible to obtain this collection…
REVIEW – Skullcandy SLYR Gaming Headset
Buzzing Your Ears – Skullcandy has a wide assortment of audio products designed for all budgets and needs, from the higher end Mix Master series to smaller ear buds. Their newest product, the SLYR, is designed for gaming with its mic support for 360, PS3, and PC but the lower sound quality, basic design, and…
REVIEW – FitBit Classic Pedometer Review
Keeping Track of Your Life – Everyone wants to be healthier, right? But Americans are busier than ever and finding the time to properly exercise is impossible… Blah blah, we have all heard this before. But have you wondered how active, or inactive, you really are? What is a FitBit? In short, it is very…
REVIEW – Johnny Hotshot (3DS eShop) Review
Help Me – UFO introduced Johnny, their “Mario,” with Johnny KungFu over the summer. While Johnny’s original adventure depicted him as a retro fighting master, this blond haired hero makes his return as a wild western sheriff in Johnny Hotshot, a $5.99 3DS eShop download. But like pretty much every other UFO game, the quality…
