Runny Egg review

A scrambled experience

Runny Egg is a simple 2D momentum-based platformer, kind of like the classic Sonic games. It's got a light and cutesy art style, and it's very easy to pick up and play. The first level starts out pretty strong. You've got a bright and green landscape, the music is upbeat and cheery, and our little egg friend... read more

Frenchy Bird review

They should have named it Crappy Bird

As I discovered the world of video gaming at a young age, I play all these wonderful new games and always notice where their influences come from.

Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward review

Technically not a game. Twist: That's a good thing.

To call Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward a game is something of a misnomer. Its official branding has elected for the more pompous sounding interactive novel. This description evokes something of an inaccurate fear that the latest in the Zero Escape franchise will be cripplingly mundane. The truth of the... read more

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate review

The best season to hunt

I won't lie; I am a gigantic Monster Hunter fan. I've been playing the games since the very first one back in 2004 on the PlayStation 2, and I'm here to say - after 200 hours of play time - that Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is easily the best game in the series to date. It takes everything Monster Hunter 3... read more

Blaster Master review

Mega Man-Metroid-Castlevania aka Blaster Master

Blaster Master was originally released in the late eighties on the NES. While it was not a huge seller, it was not a flop either. I suppose one could say it was a "cult hit". The game was released by Sunsoft, who at the time of the game's release, were a competitive developer, taking up big licenses to... read more

Less isn't always More

Do me a favor, if you will: get a friend or relative to hold one side of your Wii U GamePad with three fingers (Thumb on the respective joystick, index and middle on the trigger buttons) while you do the same with the opposite side. As you read the review, rotate the joysticks and mash the ZR/ZL buttons as... read more

The Nintendo GameCube: An Interesting Legacy

Will The Wii U Have a Similar Fate?

When it originally launched back in 2001, the Nintendo Gamecube didn't perform well. In fact, during the six years that it was on the market, the Gamecube never performed well. It ultimately lost the console generation to Sony and before Wii U, was Nintendo's worst selling home console. But now, 14 years... read more

Bike Rider DX2: Galaxy review

An Awesome Ride

Bike Rider DX2: Galaxy is an excellent game. If it were released in the days of the NES at fifty U.S. dollars, it would likely be heralded as one of the greats. It wasn't though - It was released last year in the U.S. and is currently priced at $2.99. This game rocks for all the right reasons. First of... read more

Rock'N Racing Off Road review

Stuck in the mud

Rock'N Racing Off Road is marketed as a tribute to the classic racing game "Ivan Ironman Stewart's Super Off Road". Both games feature an overhead view of a track in which you must navigate your truck to the head of the pack.

Ninja Battle Heroes review

A Light In the Dark Side of Happy Happy Nippon

Weeaboos, my anger, Makes me red like rising sun, Kawaii-etly, I perish. I have a love-hate relationship with Japanese culture. On one hand, Persona 4 and the Metal Gear Solid series are my all-time favorite titles, and I've only ever owned one non-Nintendo console in my life. I've watched more Anime... read more
