A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Peel Down to Throw Up – Instead of focusing on their unforgettable candy empire, Wonka is dipping their toe into the ice cream realm with these new Peel-A-Pop popsicles. This Nestle owned company really should just stick with what they are good at because this is honestly one of the grossest things I have ever […]
A Horrible Night To Have A Curse – Originally released on Steam almost a year ago, Blood of the Werewolf on XBLA adds a couple new features over its PC brethren but suffers overall from cheap level design and boss battles. Selena, on a quest for vengeance against her murdered husband and kidnapped child, plays […]
Repetitive Busy Work – Torus Games deserves some credit for putting a different spin on this licensed product but even the new open world gameplay cannot save this unpolished and unrefined rush job of a gaming disaster. How To Train Your Dragon 2 is like a very weak version of Diddy Kong Racing where the […]
Expansion Pack – Last fall QubicGames released AiRace Speed to the 3DS eShop, a sequel to a couple of DSiWare racers. With its low price point, solid use of stereoscopic 3D, and highly competitive leaderboards, this futuristic racer stood as a sleeper hit for Nintendo’s downloadable service. Now, about nice months later, QubicGames has released […]
That Medicine Flavor – Nabisco is starting to take the world famous Oreo into new directions by offering a slew of new flavors including mint, chocolate, birthday cake, ice cream, peanut butter, and even watermelon. Truth be told, it is getting a little out of control and no one can keep up with all this. […]
Strategic Flick’Em Up – Mixing the flicking catapult and level progression gameplay of Angry Birds with the strategy of billiards, Squids Odyssey has extended its mobile roots to the Wii U with a 3DS port set to be released soon. It is a simple concept that translates to some clever and entertaining gameplay but is […]
Rhyming Through – Building from the success of the South Park: The Stick of Truth, Ubisoft’s prose-based RPG Child of Light is a $15 download about a female youth. Built using Ubisoft Framework and familiar RPG light, combat and venturing takes place on a 2D plight. Hero Aurora is red-haired and light because early she […]
Cat Scratch Fever – With a high challenge, lack of tutorial and constant requirement for perfect playthroughs, Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails is not for everybody. You know you are in for something special when it takes hours of trial-and-error just to complete the first few opening “learning” stages of this deceptively devious […]
One Small Episode for Man. One Giant Leap for Renegade Kid. – Hero indie developer Renegade Kid has made a name for themselves over the last several years by releasing memorable titles such as Dementium, Moon, Mutant Mudds, and Bomb Monkey. Moon, an impressive-for-its-time technical FPS marvel on the original DS, is now being revisited […]
Classically Brutal With A Visual Twist – Originally released on XBLA back in 2009 by Tozai, this 2-in-1 classic compilation has snuck its way onto Sony’s digital PSN platform. Combining both coin-op classics R-Type and R-Type II, Dimensions is basically a lesson in how much you suck at old school shooters. Like Halo Anniversary, one […]
