Warner Bros has just announced a massive Midway Games compilation disc for 360 and PS3. While the full line up has not yet been announced, gamers could probably assume that most fan favorites will be included given that the developers are including 30 titles. An exact release date has not been determined nor has online…
PORTFOLIO – Jeopardy Training Game
So as a quick background on me, I have been working high-end kitchen appliance brands Sub-Zero and Wolf for well over 5 years now. Besides creating all of our marketing material, I also like to think outside the box by trying new things. In an attempt to make our sales reps’ jobs easier and more…
REVIEW – Jet Set Radio (PSN)
Wear Your Helmet Originally released on the Dreamcast in 2000, Jet Set Radio joins the ranks of Sonic Adventure and Sega Bass Fishing as a digital download on both PSN and XBLA. Unfortunately, like many early 3D games, this graffiti rollerblading sim is better kept in your memory banks as opposed to reliving the past….
BLOG – Club Nintendo Sept 2012
Instead of offering WiiWare originals, Nintendo has been offering Virtual Console downloads these last few weeks as Club Nintendo rewards. 10 Yard Fight was available as a Wii Virtual Console download for a couple weeks in preparation of the upcoming football season. Unfortunately, this football title is no TecmoBowl and pretty primitive and slow in…
REVIEW – Spelunker HD w/DLC (PS3/PSN)
This Game Hates You, Your Family, and Even Your Dog Spelunker HD is essentially a really enhanced port of the cult classic Spelunker. The game is loaded with a ton of content and offers the option to play with modern graphics or an 8-bit pixel style, but Spelunker’s deliberate insanely difficult gameplay will undoubtedly scare…
REVIEW – New Super Mario Bros. 2 (3DS)
Shiny But More of the Same Several years ago, Nintendo revived the Mario platformer with New Super Mario Bros on the original DS. While it was exciting to explore a new 2D Mario world, the title was somewhat lacking due to the complete absence of flight, no Yoshi, and a minimal use of the new…
REVIEW – The Next Space (PSN Mini)
Scrolling Through Space SNK continues to support the PSN by releasing classic arcade games as PS Minis. The Next Space is a vertical shooter that is faster paced that other recently released classic SNK titles but won’t blow anyone away thanks to repetition and an unexplained power-up system. The outer space theme is reminiscent of…
REVIEW – Chopper I (PSN Mini)
Brutal, Ruthless, and Cruel Chopper I is for one type of gamer only – the glutton for punishment. Like the days of NES, this game is difficult, frustrating, and requires the utmost tenacity and determination to complete the first stage let alone the entire game. If anything, Chopper I is a great example of how…
BLOG – Forgotten Relics, DS Rumble Pak
As long as there have been games, there have been accessories and peripherals. Although some deserve to be forgotten, some didn’t receive the recognition or attention that they deserved. Falling somewhere in-between these two categories, the DS Rumble Pak was a decent attempt by Nintendo to add forcefeed back to their popular handheld. Originally bundled…
BLOG – Club Nintendo Aug 2012
Nintendo has been stepping up the digital downloads for their Club Nintendo service over the last several week by offering more games for a shorter amount of time – instead of having a couple games available for one straight month, they have been breaking it up by offering a new game every couple weeks. This…
