A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
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 […]
An Interesting Choice – Even though there have only been two Tomba titles ever created, this pink haired Neanderthal sparked enough of a cult following that copies of the PSOne originals sell for big bucks on eBay. Now thanks to the dedicated work of the wonderful people at Monkey Paw, both Tomba titles are easy […]
A TV Sitcom in Video Game Format – Falling in line with the other quirky games in Level-5’s downloadable Guild series, Weapon Shop de Omasse puts a new spin on the RPG formula. Strangely enough, this game was actually headed by a Japanese comedian instead of a well-known game designer. Unfortunately, the end result corresponds […]
More Like Cliff’s Notes – Capcom is one of the most renowned video game companies in the world and has been in existence for many, many years. To celebrate, Capcom has partnered with BradyGames and DK to release the official Capcom 30th Anniversary Character Encyclopedia for a suggested retail price of $16.99. This hardcover contains […]
A Soggy Swamp Experience – There were high hopes for Assassin’s Creed Liberation when it initially launched on the Vita with its exclusivity and features built specifically for Sony’s powerful new handheld. Unfortunately, this new entry in the series was watered down at best and all of its short comings are further highlighted when playing […]
