	Gundam Battle Assault 3: Featuring Mobile Suit Gundam Seed review (PS2) Reviewed on September 27, 2007 I'm gonna be honest with ya, straight out. If you're the kind of person that's critical for a game for its mechanics, graphics, story plot, etc etc, or a competitive fighter gamer then this game is absolutely HORRIBLE. Shoot yourself for even considering. If you ever have or will. If you're like me, who just doesn't give a crap that much about the specs of a fighter game and just out to have fun and waste time, then, MAYBE you'll enjoy this game.
	Red Steel review (WII) Reviewed on September 27, 2007 Red Steel is a Japanese wannabe game whose play has an interesting metaphorical resemblance to a happy meal. There, I summed up everything you needed to know in one simple sentence. The sad truth being, that I'm really not kidding about this. You know how delicious that little tub of lard-glazed french fries looks when you're at your local heat-attack hut. That guy who photographs the hamburgers and tacos which you know will only hurt you in the end, does a beautiful job, and the deception t...
	Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day review (DS) Reviewed on September 24, 2007 Feeling a bit stupid? Positive that the best way to fix your stupidity is with a videogame? Well then I suppose that Brain Age 2 would be one of your best options. But if you feel nice and smart, then there's an overbearing chance that you'll hate this game. If not right away, then in a few weeks. Why? It just gets boring and frustrating, that's why. I know it is an "educational" game, but it falls short even for this category with its lack of variety, overall brevity, and mind-numbing fl...
	Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core review (PS2) Reviewed on September 23, 2007 There was a time when Capcom was the uncontested king of rehashes. In the ‘90s, Capcom managed to produce a seemingly endless string of re-releases with Street Fighter II. Yet, Arc System Works has stolen that title from Capcom, or at least forced them to share it, because Arc’s Guilty Gear series has reached a similarly ridiculous number of updates. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core marks the fourth upgrade of Guilty Gear XX, which itself is an update (albeit a dramatic...
	Slave Pageant review (PC) Reviewed on September 21, 2007 Yujiro Mido and Sumi Mizuno have known each other their entire lives. They’re neighbors. They’ve attended the same schools and been in the same classes. She walks with him every afternoon, trying to take care of him. He thinks she’s generally nice (though a bit of a crybaby), that her red hair is very pretty, and her figure is amazing. When Sumi’s nominated for the school’s Miss Twilight competition, Yujiro believes she just might win. To help her cause – but more to help himself – he rape...
	Industrial Spy: Operation Espionage review (DC) Reviewed on September 20, 2007 Imagine a game where you can take a group of spies into a building, and be able to sneak around while taking on its numerous challenges it throws in your direction. Using your spies to work together as a team, you'll be able to disarm traps, solve complex puzzles, and avoid guards while getting closer to your main goal.
	Ninja Gaiden review (NES) Reviewed on September 18, 2007 Ryu Hayabusa is a ninja with a dark past from which he can never escape. This has nothing to do with the storylines of the Ninja Gaiden series that Ryu stars in, though. Ryu's tragic history is, in fact, his first NES outing, known simply as Ninja Gaiden. While the modern Gaiden on the Xbox and Playstation 3 might be a masterpiece, Ninja Gaiden on the NES and Wii Virtual Console will leave you feeling cheated and morbidly depressed.
	King's Knight review (NES) Reviewed on September 17, 2007 It’s called King’s Knight. It was made by Square. And it’s got all manner of wizards, warriors, monsters, and magical spells! Surely this is an epic RPG, rich with complex character development and deep old-school gameplay!
	Mega Man Legends review (PSX) Reviewed on September 14, 2007 Contrary to popular opinion, first impressions aren’t everything.
	Spider-Man 3 review (X360) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Let's face it: We can all remember a day when the Spider-Man games that were coming out were not so good (and ok, Spider-Man 2 for the DS wasn't either.) But starting out on the Playstation One, Spidey games began to show some true quality. They were fun! The newest incarnation, based rather loosely on the third movie in the blockbuster series is perhaps the best yet. Swinging through the air at 200 miles per hour in a to-scale New York City, 170 feet in the air, as you take on some of the most ...
	Mario Golf review (N64) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Seamlessly meshing the country club atmosphere, the intricacies of the classic sport and a cast of characters hailing from the Mushroom Kingdom we grew up dreaming of, Camelot's Mario Golf is devoid of the excessive gimmick and glitz we might expect from a title combining two very different themes. Unlike its inferior GameCube sequel Toadstool Tour, we won't find newly invented "fast greens" where the ball skirts off as if it were on ice and poorly designed courses over brewing lav...
	Major League Baseball Featuring Ken Griffey Jr. review (N64) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 I tried.
	Pokemon Snap review (N64) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 We -- yes, we! I need your help here -- have been given a task of dire importance by our scientific superior, one Professor Oak of Palette Town Laboratories. As he toils and sweats in his cramped research facility, poking at specimens and jotting observations in data tables, we’ve been asked to go out into the field and document the various species in their natural habitats, hopefully recording their unique behaviors on film and bringing them back for his approval. Initially equipped with just a...
	Home Run King review (GCN) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 The situation is this: one out, in the bottom of the ninth, in the biggest game of your life. Your team trails by one. The most dominating post-season reliever of all time is on the mound.
	Mario Superstar Baseball review (GCN) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Forget pretentious, wannabe-spiritual flicks starring Kevin Costner; Mario Superstar Baseball contains the true fields of dreams.
	Mario Kart: Double Dash!! review (GCN) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 It's not often that a game leaves me speechless, but Mario Kart: Double Dash!! does just that.
	The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind review (XBX) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 A prisoner released from his shackles by order of the emperor, tossed beneath the decks of a rickety wooden vessel embarking towards the faraway outskirts of the dominion, the self-named, self-designed protagonist of Morrowind starts with little more than a clouded past and the clothes on his back. Noticeably absent however are the flashbacks of his foggy history and the destinies fatherly figures envision us fulfilling -- the trademarks countless adventures have conditioned us into expec...
	Super Metroid review (SNES) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Metroid is one of those series that's infallible as far as Nintendo fans are concerned. They perceive a single negative utterance regarding the series as the most heinous crime imaginable. The reverence fans hold arguably has nothing to do with the first and second games in the Metroid series, though -- it's the third game that launched the series to the stratospheric level of quality that fans have come to expect. Originally released in 1994, Super Metroid represents the...
	Wii Sports review (WII) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Those expecting a return to the blockbuster-console combo releases synonymous with the Nintendo of yesteryear will be disappointed. Wii Sports is free, and though it is an impressive technical display of the abilities of Nintendo’s new system, it also demonstrates that the technology by itself is somewhat shallow and perfecting it may be a long and drawn out process. Those focusing on these fallbacks can at least take comfort in this though; Sports matches the depth of some recen...
	Vietcong: Purple Haze review (XBX) Reviewed on September 12, 2007 Vietcong: Purple Haze is yet another bleeding-heart chronicle of a faceless American soldier, yet another tale of a youth fraudulently lured from his beloved family and home by the empty promises of self-satisfaction purported by a finger-pointing Uncle Sam. Opening with actual black and white footage from the era, from scraggly hippies protesting the war on courthouse steps to Elvis feeding his new bride cake at their wedding (relevant footage was apparently hard to come by), this is a t...
