	Vice: Project Doom review (NES) Reviewed on April 13, 2011 If you need a break from the slashing and running, there a few driving and rail shooter levels. Yeah, Vice is like The Adventures of Bayou Billy, except fun. What better way to break from laser-whipping animals and Asian stereotypes than plugging a few bullets into ninjas?
	Mass Effect 2: Arrival review (X360) Reviewed on April 11, 2011 Arrival’s only purpose is to reiterate what we already know, which is that the Reapers are on their way and that everything we’ve done so far has only delayed the inevitable. Even a climactic encounter with Harbinger only sees him repeating what he’s been shouting at you for the entire game (and, for that matter, what Sovereign was shouting at you in the last game).
	Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition review (3DS) Reviewed on April 10, 2011 The game’s third significant change is more difficult to pin down as either a flaw or an improvement. Since the 3DS only has so many standard buttons available, extra moves are now mapped to the touch screen (which is quartered). By default, the touch screen allows you to execute up to four special moves with a single tap of your stylus or finger. If you find such coddling insulting, you can instead set your configuration so that those touch screen functions allow you to use more standard moves and throws.
	Ninja Crusaders review (NES) Reviewed on April 06, 2011 Turns out the shurikens aren't getting the job done. They provide great range, but our ninja may as well be throwing butter knives.
	Top Spin 4 review (PS3) Reviewed on April 05, 2011 If the aim for a good sports-game is to allow the player to experience TV-moments on the screen, only without all the waits and commentary. And while being able to influence the events believably – without needing the years and years of training and repetition that would be needed in real life. If that is the aim, then there are a few things that need to happen.(...)
	MLB 11: The Show review (PS3) Reviewed on April 05, 2011 MLB 11: The Show spent the off-season focusing on core mechanics and the latest entry delivers substantially.
	Super Mario Bros. 3 review (NES) Reviewed on April 04, 2011 The graphics are far more detailed than the original Super Mario Bros. with a much higher color count and larger enemy sprites. There are new enemies you can hop on and ride, giant shoes to ride in (Seriously!), fire snakes, and an angry Sun. Each world has a theme, such as water, giant, ice, and sky with some enemies being unique to each world and some unique to a level.
	Super Mario Bros. 2 review (NES) Reviewed on April 04, 2011 The gameplay resembled practically nothing of the original Super Mario Bros., but fans didn’t care. It gave us a completely unique game that was enjoyable in its own right, even if it wasn’t a true Mario game.
	Assault Suit Leynos 2 review (SAT) Reviewed on April 03, 2011 Assault Suit Leynos 2 is still a good purchase for your Sega Saturn, but don't try paying an arm and a leg for a copy expecting some sort of heavenly masterpiece.
	Donkey Kong Junior review (ARC) Reviewed on April 02, 2011 With all respects to Ms. Pac-Man, you've heard of Donkey Kong Junior because it is perhaps the first great sequel to advance the original concept, cleverly reworking the formula while at the same time feeling immediately familiar to dedicated Donkey Kong players.
	Homefront review (X360) Reviewed on April 02, 2011 That Homefront permits us to wage warfare in our neighbour’s backyard is an instant coup; the gritty, literally grassroots shootouts elevate the experience from me-too shooter; a role which most other FPS games have seemed content to fill, constantly improving graphics and increasingly outlandish plots notwithstanding.
	Super Meat Boy review (X360) Reviewed on April 02, 2011 With its retro aesthetic and punishing difficulty, Super Meat Boy is the type of release that shakes things up and gets people’s attention.
	Yakuza 4 review (PS3) Reviewed on April 01, 2011 “And the unarmed running hitman as Kazuma Kiryu, the legendary former fourth chair of the Tojo clan, who now runs an orphanage as a tax-shelter at Okinawa. Very well. As he enters the roof, the 100 billion yen and the third gunman also arrive. The first gunman has trailed Kazuma through the building, and casually walks around the scene while the two people on the roof speak endlessly about the past as only 40-year olds can".
	Epic Dungeon review (X360) Reviewed on March 31, 2011 Epic Dungeon does itself credit by showcasing the best elements from years of Rogue-liking, but then manages to stand out of the crowd by daring to be different. Successful runs can last a matter of hours, premature ones a matter of seconds, but there’s always reason to come back and try again.
	Cybernator review (SNES) Reviewed on March 31, 2011 The drama! The excitement! The space opera! The exact opposite of Target Earth!
	Ufouria review (NES) Reviewed on March 31, 2011 Think of it as Mario meets Metroid. So... Marioid? Metrio?
	Pilotwings Resort review (3DS) Reviewed on March 31, 2011 There are more than 40 missions, the game’s packaging cheerfully notes, but those missions typically can be completed within 2 or 3 minutes each. A higher score and a better star rating are your only reason to return to a mission once you satisfy its conditions, and once you unlock the next tier of missions, you might not wish to revisit the early challenges at all.
	Super Mario Bros. review (NES) Reviewed on March 30, 2011 You’ll find that every plat-former made since then has copied the formula of Super Mario Bros. to some extent. Characters collect items, find new ways to defeat enemies, and explore “levels’ of unique environments.
	Boxing review (A2600) Reviewed on March 30, 2011 Boxing by Activision, is one of the first boxing video games ever created (if not the first) for the home video game console. The game play is simple, yet enjoyable. You play as a Boxer 1 (AKA White Lightning) who challenges Boxer 2 (AKA Black N’ Decker) to a friendly exhibition match.
	Homefront review (X360) Reviewed on March 29, 2011 Before we even have a gun in our hands, Kaos sends us through a Modern Warfare-esque “sit in a vehicle and watch stuff happen” introductory sequence, during which we’re shown a young couple being lined up on a busy street and shot while their crying toddler watches. By the second level, we see the corpses of American civilians being dumped by bulldozers into mass graves. Jeez. Slow burn much, Homefront?
