	Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention review (VITA) Reviewed on May 28, 2012 Disgaea 3 is a fun, lighthearted experience with a lot of depth and plenty of content to keep you occupied. If it was alone on the system, it would be an easy recommendation. But when you consider the library of excellent PSP SRPGs easily available to download on PSN, Disgaea 3 doesn’t stand out too easily, and if you've played it already there's no reason to do it again.
	Final Fantasy VIII review (PSX) Reviewed on May 28, 2012 FFVIII is just all around average. Not Square’s (now Square Enix) best showing.
	Monster World IV review (GEN) Reviewed on May 27, 2012 What's interesting about the dungeons though, is that they all have different ideas about them, and while the overall conquering method stays the same, you'll need to borrow different approaches to do so.
	Alien Crush review (TG16) Reviewed on May 26, 2012 It's also interesting to note that a lot of the sound in this game isn't violent or hyper like you would expect a pinball game to sound like.
	Diablo III review (PC) Reviewed on May 26, 2012 With so many of Diablo III's core functions being handled on Blizzard's end, the game's performance is directly tied to how well their servers are running. When you buy Diablo III, half of the game is still in another part of the country, and millions of people are trying to access it all at once.
	Atelier Meruru: The Apprentice of Arland review (PS3) Reviewed on May 26, 2012 There’s an astonishing level of complexity on display everywhere you turn, so you might have to wait until your second or third trip through the game before trying to actually hunt down some of the more fearsome monsters. Even then, with the benefit of gear that you are allowed to carry over from one round to the next, failure is possible and perhaps even likely. There’s a bunch of awesome stuff to do and see but not nearly enough time.
	The Mist review (PC) Reviewed on May 25, 2012 You'll be screwing around, attempting to input any damn command the computer might actually recognize, outside the hardware store when suddenly you'll get a "The bug just appeared" message. Now, one of two things will happen. First, if you're lucky enough to have found a bug-killing item AND are lucky enough to figure out the specific way to phrase your command so that you actually use it, you can dispatch the mutated creature. Or, more likely, you'll be dead in a turn or two.
	Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 2 review (PS3) Reviewed on May 24, 2012 Do you think Tails has hollow bones?
	Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure review (DS) Reviewed on May 24, 2012 Overall Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure is an enjoyable game that is simple to pick up, yet challenging enough to keep you engaged. I recommend it for both puzzle game fans, and plat former fans.
	EvilQuest review (X360) Reviewed on May 24, 2012 Once the shock that I was playing a wanna-be retro title wore off, all that was left was a basic, by the books action RPG. As Rotten Tomatoes likes to say, it was a genre exercise.
	Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II review (X360) Reviewed on May 20, 2012 While I'm disheartened that Episode II feels the need to reuse stuff from past titles instead of attempting a 100% fresh game, for what it is... it's still fun to play.
	No Escape! review (A2600) Reviewed on May 17, 2012 I found myself playing session after session, hopelessly addicted to something so archaic, so simplistic. The furious pace and wicked challenge kept things interesting, and the peculiar enemy designs piqued my interest. I had to see what abomination awaited me in the next round, had to know what abilities it brought to the battle. Most of all, I had to know if I was good enough to survive.
	Tutankham review (A2600) Reviewed on May 16, 2012 The adventurous moments, the challenge, the action... those are things I remember. It's not that they aren't present, it's just that you have to tolerate a lot of questionable decisions made by the developers. Why can't you shoot vertically? Why sport such drunken play control? Maybe they felt it would have made the game too easy, but I beg to differ. I'm sure they could have found other ways to turn up the challenge.
	Atlantis review (A2600) Reviewed on May 14, 2012 Atlantis obeys Atari 2600's golden rule of keeping everything simple while maintaining a fast pace.
	Choaniki: Kyuukyoku Muteki Ginga Saikyou Otoko no Gyakushu review (SAT) Reviewed on May 12, 2012 !!~CAUTION~!! This review is best read with unsuspecting family members, close friends, or complete strangers for maximum effect. You have been warned.
	Forest review (A2600) Reviewed on May 12, 2012 This game is the definition of repetition.
	Akai Katana review (X360) Reviewed on May 12, 2012 So many deaths, so many bullets…
	Revenge of the Titans review (PC) Reviewed on May 11, 2012 Compounding that particular issue is the fact that it’s difficult to see very far. The perspective is close enough to the ground that you can easily see detail around each building and your base, but to see the whole level you’ll need to use the keyboard keys or the mouse to scroll. This adds nothing useful to the experience and seems to exist mostly as a cheap means of adding difficulty.
	Brave Fencer Musashi review (PSX) Reviewed on May 09, 2012 Most people anticipated games like Parasite Eve and Xenogears, but I showed zero interest in those, following instead a title called Brave Fencer Musashi. Touted as a 3D adventure similar in style to oldschool games like The Legend of Zelda, I was captivated by the colorful imagery and descriptions in magazines, about a blue-haired sword fighter summoned through time to a kingdom in distress.
	Dragonfire review (A2600) Reviewed on May 08, 2012 What this game needed was some refinement. Certain areas should have been smoothed out for fairness, other areas more structured to cut the reliance on luck. It had a solid idea, it had a fast pace and it was simple. In some ways it was too fast-paced and too simple.
