	Little Nemo: The Dream Master review (NES) Reviewed on February 18, 2013 Presumably you’re not reading this review because you’re getting ready to open a new copy of Little Nemo to play on your brand new NES. I have to figure instead that you have an emulator and may have been wondering whether there’s anything good about a game featuring a little boy in his pajamas. The answer is a definite “yes.”
	Dishonored review (X360) Reviewed on February 15, 2013 Dishonored is a bit of a surprise. It takes concepts from a few prominent games, but is distinct enough to stand-alone and even surpasses certain elements of those titles. The controls manage to put to shame years of FPS-action games, and while I found the story and immersion lacking, the gameplay in Dishonored more than made up for it.
	Chains review (PC) Reviewed on February 08, 2013 Not found in this game: bondage.
	Spec Ops: The Line review (PC) Reviewed on February 05, 2013 You monster, you!
	Blast Chamber review (SAT) Reviewed on January 27, 2013 In this release, you're in control of a red suit contestant placed inside a series of giant, cubed-shaped rooms, or chambers, where a female-voiced AI occasionally utters something.
	Clock Tower review (SNES) Reviewed on January 26, 2013 Terrible Controls, Confusing camera angles, limited saves, limited ammo, cheap thrill scares, does anyone know of a game made before all that became mandatory in a horror game, well I do: Clock Tower, is it any good? please read the review and find out what I think.
	Gears of War review (X360) Reviewed on January 26, 2013 Gear of War from Epic Games is a third person shooter which revolutionizes cover based combat. The detailed graphics, interesting story, and incredible music combine with innovative combat to create a game everyone should try.
	Mass Effect Trilogy review (PS3) Reviewed on January 21, 2013 The heart of Mass Effect is you, the player. Mass Effect is a series that succeeds in its details, rather than its broad strokes, and while the technology and themes of the story create a vivid setting, all of the details of that setting are decided by the player.
	Final Soldier review (TG16) Reviewed on January 21, 2013 This isn't to say Final Soldier is a terrible game. It's stable and has a few fun moments, but it doesn't compare to the bulk of entries in its genre. Unfortunately, you have to chew through a lot of mediocrity to get to the juicy bits.
	Double Dragon review (NES) Reviewed on January 20, 2013 For a game I haven't played that much during childhood, Double Dragon for the NES is a title whose details I can still remember vividly to this day without a problem.
	Castlevania: Symphony of the Night review (PSX) Reviewed on January 20, 2013 I cherish so many facets of this game that even its minor flaws--which are heavily overshadowed its stellar exploration elements, strong atmosphere, breathtaking visuals, and fantastic soundtrack--occupy a special place in my heart.
	Phantasy Star II review (GEN) Reviewed on January 15, 2013 This game will break your heart just as much as the hearts of the characters in this game will break…
	Sonic Generations review (PC) Reviewed on January 07, 2013 Generations is almost like two games tied by the storyline, but if a less pedantic way of implementing both of these can be found, then the blue hedgehog has a bright future ahead. For now, this is the return that Sonic needed.
	Heavy Shreddin' review (NES) Reviewed on January 02, 2013 A snowboarding game on the NES, you think it wouldn't be complicated, what with the goal involving going down hills.
	Final Fantasy XIII review (PS3) Reviewed on January 01, 2013 Final Fantasy XIII stands as a new kind of JRPG that rewards varieties of intelligent play and players who think on their feet.
	Panic! review (SCD) Reviewed on December 30, 2012 Panic! Is…a difficult game to explain, or even to understand. I have a feeling that it is a game that is very much like marmite, either you love it or you absolutely hate it. I happen to like it but there are a lot of things in it that I can imagine many people hating.
	New Super Mario Bros. U review (WIIU) Reviewed on December 29, 2012 New Super Mario Bros. U isn't just a bad title for a game but a misnomer as well.
	Dishonored review (PC) Reviewed on December 26, 2012 A fun, if disingenuous experience.
	Deathsmiles II X review (X360) Reviewed on December 24, 2012 Released on the Xbox 360 as a retail title in Japan, it did not meet the same fate elsewhere, dooming it, like so many standalone shoot-em-ups these days, as an NTSC J exclusive. However, the Cave-developed horizontal shooter still managed to find an outlet in the most interesting of places: Xbox Live's Games on Demand US service.
	Elements of Destruction review (X360) Reviewed on December 21, 2012 Getting laid off sucks, especially if you've dedicated 60 years of your life to a company. As the employer, there has to be a certain finesse to breaking the news to said person... hopefully.
