	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.
	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".
	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?
	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?
	WWF War Zone review (N64) Reviewed on March 28, 2011 The World Wrestling Federation was undergoing a major facelift as the late 1990's came around. Ridding itself of the stale, 'family friendly' legacy from the decade before, it stood up to growing competition from both WCW and ECW and began offering a far more cut-throat, near-the-knuckle product. The Federation's last video game release, In Your House in 1996, couldn't have been further removed from this. It was time for developer Acclaim to redeem itself...
	Golden Sun: Dark Dawn review (DS) Reviewed on March 28, 2011 They then thrust them into a meek storyline that does nothing to supplement the Golden Sun epic or answer the questions made at the end of The Lost Age, only gives you random, useless insights to the after-effects of Issac and his group’s end goal. Most of these are meaningless—what alchemy did to the land, how vibrant the earth has become—or long-winded recaps about what happened in the first two games.
	Target Earth review (GEN) Reviewed on March 27, 2011 Whenever you think you understand how Target Earth plays, it always seem to do something to slap your ass back to the title screen.
	Dead Space 2 review (PC) Reviewed on March 26, 2011 All in all, Dead Space 2 manages to improve on the original whilst retaining a great sense of atmospheric suspense.
	Assassin's Creed review (X360) Reviewed on March 24, 2011 Stealth is not important as you’d think. With a name like Assassin’s Creed, wouldn’t you expect the gameplay to revolve around sneaking around and killing your targets and getting out undetected? Of course you would! The brotherhood makes a big deal about not drawing attention, but you’ll find its borderline impossible NOT to draw attention. Most of the assassinations take place in crowded, guarded areas, full of frustrating gameplay mechanics like twitchy guards and troublemakers.
	Epic Dungeon review (X360) Reviewed on March 24, 2011 Rogue done right
	Yoshi's Cookie review (NES) Reviewed on March 20, 2011 Using minimal wit, you are tasked with moving the cookies around to form matching rows and columns with the hopes of clearing the them out. Yes, it's as boring as it sounds.
	Dragon Age II review (PC) Reviewed on March 17, 2011 I can't help but shake the feeling that this is the Knights of the Old Republic 2 of this generation - an ambitious sequel marred by technical complications.
	Astal review (SAT) Reviewed on March 16, 2011 Astal is such a disturbingly simplistic side-scroller that, it's hard to believe it was developed by Sega, known for their quality side-scrollers.
	Osmos review (PC) Reviewed on March 16, 2011 Hemisphere Games put some real thought into this game. They didn't want you walking out thinking it was a loveless affair. Each new situation adds to the addiction and stimulates your gray matter and your gall, putting together a solid plan on the fly and having the brass put it into effect, even when it seems you may fail.
	Poker Night at the Inventory review (PC) Reviewed on March 13, 2011 In the end, Poker Night at the Inventory is nothing more than a promotion for Team Fortress 2 featuring a cheap poker game.
