A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
This Is An Endless Runner, Not a Fake Angry Birds – From the title name and colorful bird character on the box art, most gamers would probably assume that Bird Mania 3D is some sort of Angry Birds clone. This is not the case. Instead, Bird Mania 3D is an endless runner that plays like […]
Finding Lost Memories – Set as a reimagining of the 16-bit original cult classic, Flashback stays true to the Prince of Persia action-platforming style of gameplay but comes up a little short on the awesome-sauce. Via the Unreal Engine, Flashback is a good looking 2.5D experience that blends the HD environments of Shadow Complex mixed […]
This is What Makes Games Fun – Rayman Legends is a pick-up-and-play accessible platformer that has such a high entertainment value it will make you smile from ear-to-ear from beginning to end. I have not had this much pure fun from a videogame in a long time. After being bitch-slapped awake from the snooze of […]
I Used to be an Adventurer, then I Took A Bullet To the Knee – The Heavy Fire series has been Teyonâs bread and butter franchise over the last couple years, releasing ports and sequels on PC, Wii, 360, PS3 and now on 3DS. With a simple premise of shoot anything that moves, Black Arms […]
Itâs for Birds – Starting off on the mobile environment then evolving to anything with a screen, the Angry Birds phenomenon will continue to grow as long as there is a reason for these feathered fowl to keep suicide bombing defenseless farm animals. It really is only a matter of time before the garage door […]
Trying To Keep the Beat – The 3DS and the eShop are no strangers to music based games. Unfortunately, Groove Heaven doesnât stack up especially against heavy hitters like Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, HarmoKnight, and even Bit.Trip Saga despite being a cheaper and kid friendly download. Players assume the role of a cutesy devil girl who […]
Fore Score and 14 Years Ago – I missed out on Mario Golf for the Gameboy Color back when it was first released in 1999; I was more of Mario Tennis kind of guy at the time. But thanks to the August 2013 Club Nintendo program and the 3DS Virtual Console, I was given the […]
Go Smurf Yourself – Like most movie-based tie-ins, Smurfs 2 is nothing more than a marketing tool that will earn blind sales from ignorant parents looking to purchase a new non-violent game for their youngster. In short, this game is one heaping pile of Smurf. Gameplay is like a watered down Donkey Kong Country Returns […]
Some of the Best Games in the Last 25 Years in One Package – The Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection is one of the best, if not THE best, compilation package in videogame history. For most gamers, this bundle will be a double dip of sorts but newcomers couldnât really ask for anything better. Oh […]
Solve Problems With Punches – In the early 90âs the brawler genre dominated arcades and home consoles but as gameplay evolved this âpunch-everything-and-walk-to-the-rightâ type of game gave way to First Person Shooters and RPGs. Zeno Clash, and now its sequel Zeno Clash II, are throwbacks to this old brawler genre but integrated with modern gameplay […]
