REVIEW – Midway Arcade Origins (360)Blast From The Past – Compilation games are nothing new. Namco, Konami, and even Nintendo constantly find ways and excuses to re-release old games… but for some reason gamers re-buy games all the time and rarely think twice.

REVIEW – Johnny Hotshot (3DS eShop) ReviewHelp Me – UFO introduced Johnny, their “Mario,” with Johnny KungFu over the summer. While Johnny’s original adventure depicted him as a retro fighting master, this blond haired hero makes his return as a wild western sheriff in Johnny Hotshot, a $5.99 3DS eShop download.

REVIEW – Smart Girl’s Playhouse Mini (DSiWare) ReviewSmart or Ignorant? Instead of being called a “game,” Smart Girl’s Playhouse Mini is more like an app that is designed for very young female DS owners.
