Game and gadget reviews here.
Blue Sugar – Like all other Pop-Tarts, including the special 50th Anniversary version, this new Blue Raspberry “breakfast” item is shockingly sweet and features some poor packaging decisions. Smothered in a white frosting with blue glaze, these tarts are on par with pretty much every other Pop-Tart out there only the inside goo is now […]
Compact Design. High Price. Lacking Features. – The headset market has never been more crowded and v-moda wants its piece of the audiophile pie. The crowdsourced M-100 model features one of the most compact headset designs ever seen but carries a high price point, accessories like the mic are sold separately, lacks the ability to […]
Your Toad Is In This Castle – It only took about 25 years but Toad finally stars in his own game. Not really playable since Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES) and Mario Kart cameos, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is a puzzle adventure game that provides a deep sense of accomplishment, is pick-up-and-playable, and features one […]
A Different Take – Throughout the 90s, Nintendo Power featured original comics revolving around popular Nintendo franchises such as Metroid, Star Fox and even Nester, Nintendo’s spikey hair kid mascot. One of the most notable comics was the retelling of The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past from January 1992 (Vol. 32) through […]
Adding Fuel To the Fire – Following up the stellar DLC Pack 1, Nintendo has released the final batch of DLC simply named Pack 2. Just like Pack 1, Pack 2 includes two new cups with a total of 8 new tracks along with new playable racers and vehicles. Not skimping on quality, Nintendo has […]
Train Science Has Nothing on Rocket Science – With complexity not seen in a 3DS title, let alone a downloadable eShop title, A-Train 3D: City Simulator is a painstakingly detailed game that is truly for the hardest of the hardcore. Just how complex is this train sim? It takes days just to get through the […]
Doom Meets Spelunky – With straightforward gameplay and randomly generated levels, Tower of Guns has individuality in the crowded FPS genre but lacks options to keep you playing for long. Tower of Guns simplifies almost every aspect of gameplay. There is no reloading, no ammo pick-ups to worry about, the player can only hold one […]
Making It Harder Than It Needs To Be – With a nonsensical story, a unnecessarily high difficulty level, and unbalanced unlockables, Iron Combat is a needless air mech combat sim that frustrates instead of entertains. The story is either poorly translated, poorly written, or both because it is difficult to follow. Luckily, it doesn’t really […]
Coke Now Makes Milk – When you think of the white liquid that comes from cows, you probably don’t think of Coca-Cola, the company that makes brown chemical based beverages that are extremely high in sugar and is pretty much poison to humans. The times have changed, however, as Coke has recently dipped their toe […]
Shooting The Moon – Taking place shortly after the conclusion of Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask is a Zelda game unlike any other. Ransacked by the Skull Kid while riding Epona through a forest, Link is robbed of his possessions, turned into a plant, and transported to a doomed world. With only three days to […]
