NBA 2K7 review

When I first bought the Xbox 360 version of NBA 2K7, I had already played the PS2 version for many hours. I didn't think that two games with identical titles, cover arts, and game modes could be so different. It's not just a huge graphical…

Sprung: A Game Where Everyone Scores review

I wasn't around during the glory days of text adventures, but I would expect it to compare slightly to Sprung. This game isn't really a "game" itself, but a dating sim comprised of different choices you pick to beat levels. You don't…

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team review

This game is like sour candy. It tastes really caustic and makes your lips pucker, but you enjoy it anyway. You don't really know why; it just tastes good. Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team is a dungeon crawler that features you…

NBA 2K7 review

Yes, NBA 2K7 looks eerily similar to the previous game. That's the biggest thing that critics have about this game. We all know that the Xbox 360 version of this game is much prettier and has more features than us PS2 owners can ever…

Bee 52 review

Some things in real life aren't made to be fun, but video games can mold them into something exhilarating, something worth wasting your free time to do. Video games can make you want to farm, or want to take the role of an old fat guy's…

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones review

I came into this game as another one of those guys who only knew Fire Emblem because of Marth and Roy from Super Smash Bros Melee. So basically, I didn't really know much about the game other than the fact that it's kinda similar to…

Yu-Gi-Oh! Nightmare Troubadour review

No matter where you go, you've probably heard the name Yu-Gi-Oh before. You might have seen it on numerous commercials while flipping channels, scanned its name on random ads scattered on the train on the way to work, or your little…

Bob the Builder: Fix It Fun! review

Before picking up some games, you know that it's going to be bad. I thought that Bob the Builder: Fix It Fun was going to be a boring children's game that entertained kids in a way that older folks won't understand. But instead, I was…

Secret Scout in the Temple of Demise review

There are some games where the beginning of the game is really awful, but then later on the story gets whipped into shape or you get used to slightly sloppy controls and see that other aspects of the game aren't so bad. Very rarely will…

Feel the Magic: XY/XX review

Sometimes, I feel that launch games are just there to test a machine's capabilities and how the public will react to it. I feel that these games are somewhat entertaining, but not "complete". There's a missing element in some of these…
