Altered Space: A 3-D Alien Adventure review (GB)Reviewed on July 08, 2013The game dumps you off in a small room, expecting you to travel through several rooms in many different possible paths until you find an elevator or teleporter that takes you to the next level. The game takes an isometric perspective, with developers Software Creations having also created the isometric Solstice for the NES. Problem: the NES was a console that sent visual and audio data to a TV screen, and had colour. The Game Boy had a pea-green screen that was only 2 inches across. |

Xexyz review (NES)Reviewed on July 08, 2013Other than them, Xexyz is a pretty manageable game with my main stalling point being one particular boss fought fairly late into the game. Horrza looks pretty awesome (the fact that he’s a jet-pack-wearing dragon wielding a pair of guns — one seemingly grafted into its tail — might be the coolest thing imaginable), but he'll utterly slaughter all but the most skilled players with nonstop fire aided by his erratic movements up and down the screen. |

Code Name: Viper review (NES)Reviewed on July 07, 2013People use the word “clone” a lot these days as they talk about video games, sometimes unjustly. Some games really do deserve that unwanted label, though, and there are few titles with a more legitimate claim to it than Code Name: Viper for the NES. That isn't to say that it’s a poor product, however. |

Remember Me review (PC)Reviewed on July 06, 2013It's not dull; it's too varied for that. What it's lacking, though, is anything that truly makes it stand out on the gameplay front. It would have only taken one thing to elevate this material, and the memory remix levels almost do that, but there are only four of them, in a campaign that'll run you nine or ten hours to complete. |

Heavyweight Championship Boxing review (GB)Reviewed on July 05, 2013Heavyweight Championship Boxing was the first boxing game on a Nintendo handheld. With no real predecessor to look at, developers TOSE were required to design the game interface and hope their vision did not flop on arrival. Heavyweight Championship Boxing turned out surprisingly decent. |

Mass Destruction review (SAT)Reviewed on July 03, 2013Really, all you need is one brief inspection of Mass Destruction's case to get a very good idea of what you're getting for your money. Want something briefer? How about: a game called Mass Destruction. |

The Last of Us review (PS3)Reviewed on June 30, 2013Instead, Joel’s personal motives are called into question. As his protection of Ellie becomes more and more desperate, the astute gamer will not be able to escape wondering whether Joel is trying to replace his own lost family with this little girl—leading her into an unbalanced emotional reliance in the process. |

LEGO City Undercover review (WIIU)Reviewed on June 24, 2013Lego City: Undercover is a game I recommend for all the Wii U owners that have been waiting for a new game since launch. The game is hilarious and is fun to play for all ages, for both the casual and hardcore. |

Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan review (3DS)Reviewed on June 24, 2013Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titans is a wonderful throwback to retro RPGs. The game is challenging, incredibly long, and employs a wealth of monsters and items. |

Ghost Squad review (WII)Reviewed on June 24, 2013At a glance, Ghost Squad doesn't seem all too different from yesteryear's Virtua Cop 1 & 2, which the game openly borrows from. |

Half-Life 2: Episode Two review (PC)Reviewed on June 21, 2013Just in case the conclusion to the Half-Life story doesn’t come into fruition whatsoever, it has at least quit while it’s ahead here. Much of the action that made Half-Life 2 enjoyable has been condensed into an intense adventure. |

Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu review (NES)Reviewed on June 20, 2013It’s entirely possible that this game isn’t based on the real life of Jackie Chan. |

Mega Man review (NES)Reviewed on June 20, 2013I don’t think that the first Mega Man game holds up as well as many of its sequels did, but it’s still a fun and challenging title. |
