This game isn’t out yet for Android users but hopefully it will come out in the near future. Cling! was developed by First5 Games. First5 Games’ team consists of founder and CEO, Dustin Clingman, art director, Allan Alegado, and developer and designer, Mike Ar...[Read More]
Review: Clash of Elementalists (3DS)
Every once in a while, a new game comes out that tries something interesting. And sometimes, that results in something amazing. But it often results in something awful. Which does the DSiware game Clash of Elementalists fall under?
Review: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D (3DS)
When someone says the name “Donkey Kong” to you, what do you think of? The first words that pop into my head are “barrels”, “bananas”, and “HOLY CRAP…HARDEST GAME EVER”. That last little bit probably popped into your head too if you ever played the original Donkey Kong Country Returns on the Wii. Not only was it a fun little platformer with adorable enemies, but it is probably one of the har...[Read More]
Review: Mystery Murders: Jack the Ripper (3DS)
I love anything that has a good mystery, but one of the most notorious mysteries is the story of Jack the Ripper. When I was informed that I would be able to play the Mystery Murders game for Jack the Ripper, recently released in Nintendo eShop for the 3DS, I became excited!
Review: Dead or Alive 5 Plus (Vita)
Fighting games always make me feel like an old man. Not because I’m outclassed online more often than not, although that’s true, but because it reminds me of starting out with the original Street Fighter arcade game and the Genesis version of Mortal Kombat. There have been countless iterations on various franchises since those salad days, and I am always surprised by just how great the Dead or Ali...[Read More]
Review: Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor’s Edge (PS3)
When I look at Ninja Gaiden over the last few years, I can’t help but think about how the mighty have fallen. When Ninja Gaiden 3 was released at the end of last year, it met with rather scathing reviews, and for good reason. It was an atrocious game, especially considering the pedigree of the series. The controls were almost Resident Evil clunky, and the difficulty, which is what made Ninja Gaide...[Read More]
Review: Super Little Acorns 3D Turbo (3DS)
When I was first told about Super Little Acorn 3D Turbo, I immediately looked up a video like I normally do. I did not care for what I saw and passed on the game, thinking it was too easy and childish. A couple of weeks later I decided to give the game a chance; what could it hurt? I started to download it from the Nintendo eShop; the download was pretty quick! This caused me to think even more th...[Read More]
Review: Dead Island: Riptide (360)
It’s pretty easy to dream about getting away from it all. The hustle and bustle of everyday life can lead to any number of daydreams about strolling barefoot on white sandy beaches; of a place where day drinking is perfectly acceptable and there’s really no reason to wear anything but swim attire. Maybe you’d like to go to a place where you can see rainbow mists as water cascades...[Read More]
Review: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers (3DS)
When I first heard of the game Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers I wasn’t sure what to think. I knew it was a classic RPG that many people enjoyed. With me I enjoy the heck out any RPG since I can spend hours having a good time. Maybe at times it’ll be hard but who cares; as long as you’re having fun it’s a good sign. Now let’s fast forward to 2013 in w...[Read More]
Review: Doctor Who Wave One Bundle (PS Home)
I’m not what one would call an avid fan of PlayStation Home. I’ve been aware of it for about half a decade, and I had a few opportunities to experience it shortly after its launch, but it’s not something that ever hooked me. I had used PC based avatar chat rooms in the past (the mid 90s), and I had been a hardcore IRC user since the early 90s, but much to Home’s detriment, ...[Read More]
Review: Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan (3DS)
Lately I’ve been glued to my new 3DS XL, ranging from pre-installed software to games like Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan, and more. As you can guess I’ve been playing a lot of Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan, and I’ve been enjoying my self. A game like this will most likely have a lot of features, being a dungeon crawler, and boy have I enjoyed those type of gam...[Read More]
Review: Ni No Kuni (PS3)
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is a difficult game to talk about, not because of its fascinating take on RPG battle systems or the mechanical parts that make up the gameplay, although those parts are amazing, but because it is a difficult game to play emotionally. I have referred to it as “brutal” many times while talking to others about it. After many false starts and trying to write about ...[Read More]
