Higher-Def When I reviewed last year’s then Wii exclusive GoldenEye, a reimagining of the N64 hit, I took into account that it was a type of game rarely seen on the Wii. Given the fact that it was an exclusive FPS on an FPS starved system, supported 10 player online multiplayer without a hanky Friend […]

Kling-On is an incomplete project but the foundation is solid.  I am kicking myself now for not finding the time to complete this project as games like N+ and Super Meatboy beat me to it. Anyway, I always enjoyed the wall jumping mechanic found the in the MegaMan X games and always wanted to create […]

I was scanning through some old programs I made and found my Fireworks sample app.  What does it do?  Well, it makes fireworks. Just click or drag the mouse to make randomly rainbow colored fireworks appear. I made this basic app for an excuse to play around with the Havok physics engine.  Man, what powerful […]

One of the first games I created was used from a GameMaker template.  Changing a few things around and adding my own content, I came up with Ball Slapper – the goal is to click the balls before they hit the sides of the stage and reach the border, Breakout-Stlye.  The more clicks, the higher […]

GREAAAAAAAT! Without question, the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection is quite the package.  Arguably, MGS2 and MGS3 are some of the PS2’s finest titles with Peace Walker standing as one of the highest quality titles on Playstation’s portable.  Bundling them all on a single disc, giving them an HD makeover, and selling for a reduced […]

Out Of Time Instead of putting you in the shoes of four Spidermen like last year’s Shattered Dimensions, Edge of Time seamlessly transitions between a past and future Spider-Man.  Unfortunately, the focus on style puts all gameplay in the backseat. Comic books can have some pretty strange plotlines but Edge of Time takes a new […]

It Is Not Your Destiny X-Men Destiny does something different.  Instead of assuming control of your favorite mutant superhero, Destiny puts you in the shoes of an unknown mutant.  The entire basis behind the gameplay is having the option of imbuing the special abilities of your liking, not unlike selecting the Ranger, Fighter, or Mage […]

Back To Basics Sega’s favorite mascot has going through some tough times ever since he left the Genesis era.  Sonic Generations is a throwback to great 2D levels of the 16-bit age with the best touches of Sonic Adventure mixed in.  Sure, fans received Sonic Colors but the ridiculous alien plotline was a little strange […]

Punching You In the Nuts If there is one thing I learned from playing Self-Defense Training Camp, it is that dudes should constantly be wearing a cup.  Every day trips to the grocery store, during a meeting at work, or just walking to the mailbox, it does not matter – just make sure you are […]

Aiming for Realism I have yet to play a Kinect game without a delay from my movements to what happens on screen.  Any game, whether it involves Kinect or not, needs to properly respond to the player’s actions.  Without this, the only result will be frustration and ultimately turning the game off.  MotionSports Adrenalin, like […]
