A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Game and gadget reviews here.
Best Baseball Game Ever! (This review was originally posted back in early 2005. But now that R.B.I. Baseball ’14 is about to launch, I thought I would repost this review.) Here’s the thing: I have never really liked sports video games. My philosophy is that if I’m going to participate in a sport, I will […]
Stand and Protect – The biggest gimmick behind the Wii U is the tablet-like Gamepad. This special controller is responsible for the majority of the cost of a Wii U so it only makes sense to want to project it. In fact, Nintendo does not even offer replacement/extra Gamepads at retail so keeping this unique […]
Now You Can Hate Yourself All Day! – Giving McDonalds and Burger King a run for their money, Taco Bell has just started to play in the breakfast food category. What exact does this have to do with games, technology, and other geeky stuff? Nothing really, I just wanted an excuse to blog about this […]
Herding Cats – Skater Cat is not your typical runner. Running into walls, falling on spikes, and even getting hit by enemies does not cause an instant one-hit kill Game Over; the only way to really die is to fall down a hole which causes a full restart. Play control is very easy: the Circle […]
OH MY GOD, THEY MADE A GOOD GAME! With a shaky development history, publisher drama, and numerous delays, it is a wonder how South Park: The Stick of Truth actually found its way onto store shelves. But boy am I glad it did. Not only does this title recreate the look and feel of the […]
An Extended Demo With Tons of Replayability- Starting with the poorly ported NES original, I have been a rabid Metal Gear fan since the inception of the series, playing through every single US released title since. Like the rest of the world, I am anxiously awaiting the Phantom Pain (currently with an unannounced release date) […]
Blending Sudoku, Picross, and Mine Sweeper – Mixing puzzle elements from Picross and Sudoku, Tappingo is a different type of puzzle game that offers a casual but yet refined experience for a low cost. Using the stylus, the goal is to create 8-bit sprites by stringing together tiles in the correct order. Each puzzle has […]
A Miserable Pile of Secrets – The original Lords of Shadow was a flawed but refreshing new take on this fan favorite franchise. Something was a little lost in the more linear level progression but the new action focused combat and memorable ending made the original game a worthy play through from beginning to end […]
An Expanding Companion – Kingston, and their infinite nerdtastic wisdom, has produced yet another ingenious gadget that is simple to use and can make your techy life a little more streamlined. The microDUO is the latest unit to enter the DataTraveler series and offers an OTG (On-The-Go) storage solution for compatible mobile devices. For reference, […]
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 […]
