A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Offensive Tower Defense – Blending RTS, tower defense, and strategy elements, Cube Tactics is an unexpected charming five dollar eShop download that is worth your time. This Teyon published title can probably be best described as an “offensive tower defense” as the player has to plan for both offensive and defensive maneuvers by placing different […]

An Interesting Choice – Even though there have only been two Tomba titles ever created, this pink haired Neanderthal sparked enough of a cult following that copies of the PSOne originals sell for big bucks on eBay.

A TV Sitcom in Video Game Format – Falling in line with the other quirky games in Level-5’s downloadable Guild series, Weapon Shop de Omasse puts a new spin on the RPG formula. Strangely enough, this game was actually headed by a Japanese comedian instead of a well-known game designer. Unfortunately, the end result corresponds […]
What I am hoping to be the first of many episodes, I played through Flower Cup in Mario Kart Super Circuit for the GBA. It has been many years since I played this GBA racer so my skills are definitely rusty but I managed to pull out an exciting .1 second win the in final […]
You Should Probably Play These Games – Atlus has always been one of my favorite game companies as they consistently release unique, high quality titles with game experiences that cannot be found anywhere else; no other publisher would even consider going near some of the games Atlus has released. Atlus understands the dedication of their […]
