	Metroid II: Return of Samus review (GB) Reviewed on August 20, 2013 When Metroid II works, it displays pockets of brilliant game design, but when it falters...
	The Last of Us review (PS3) Reviewed on August 15, 2013 The first time Ellie shouts a ‘Fuck you!’ at someone, her delivery is so perfect that it just shatters everything known about this hobby.
	Jones in the Fast Lane review (PC) Reviewed on August 14, 2013 Jones isn't perfect but offers revealing rat-race insights beyond the densely-packed jokes that never get cynical or fluffy. I found myself calculating how to cram in quick cheap education before week's end, or even working way more than I needed to or putting off asking for a raise (yes, it's just a game. Yes, guilt from playing it at work may've factored.)
	Phantasy Star review (SMS) Reviewed on August 11, 2013 Often hailed as one of the greatest RPGs of all time I ask has Phantasy star stood the test of time or has 25 years of progress simply left this game behind.
	Super Mario Bros. review (NES) Reviewed on August 10, 2013 Mario will linger.
	Asterix review (SMS) Reviewed on August 05, 2013 The unique characters, stages tailored to the character chosen, well-scaled difficulty, intelligent and innovative level design, and multiplayer capabilities superseded my expectations. It all combines to make a really great game that is fun to play and shouldn't be missed by any gaming enthusiast.
	Mark of the Ninja review (X360) Reviewed on August 05, 2013 Mark of the Ninja is an amazing stealth game featuring a hefty amount of symbolism.
	DARK review (X360) Reviewed on August 03, 2013 I didn't buy DARK for its award-winning narrative, thankfully, but because it's a stealth title. Well, that, and I was curious due to the hate the game was receiving.
	Alex Kidd in Shinobi World review (SMS) Reviewed on July 31, 2013 The game was really fun, I loved the look and the sound...and had a blast playing it. However, it ended way too soon and didn't pose much of a challenge...leaving me with a bittersweet memory of what should have been a great game...but ends up just being "pretty good".
	Bikkuriman World: Gekitou Sei Senshi review (NES) Reviewed on July 29, 2013 It showed me that, yes, RPGs can transcend language. Maybe none can as well as your average puzzle game. But BW has lots more fun trying and getting far closer than expected.
	Alex Kidd in Miracle World review (SMS) Reviewed on July 29, 2013 I had a lot of fun playing the game, and was really surprised by the gameplay variety in a platformer made in the mid-80's. Not only does it deliver on the gameplay, it also looked and sounded absolutely astounding. I'd recommend this game to pretty much anybody...it is certainly a game worth playing!
	X-Men: Destiny review (PS3) Reviewed on July 23, 2013 X-Men Destiny seems to be universally despised, and while I mostly agree, fanboys of the X-Men universe may still be entertained.
	The Witcher review (PC) Reviewed on July 22, 2013 This is still Tolkienesque fantasy to the bone. You can throw around made-up words like "vodyanoi" and "Scoia'tael" all you like, but it doesn't change the fact that the elves are slender woodland-dwellers and the dwarves are Scottish beer-drinkers and wow does this all feel familiar.
	Ninja Commando review (NEO) Reviewed on July 20, 2013 You guuyyyyssss, don't ruin my scheme! Get lost!
	Final Fantasy III review (SNES) Reviewed on July 11, 2013 Oh, the beautiful white text of high damage numbers.
	Machinarium review (PS3) Reviewed on July 10, 2013 Machinarium’s Dr. Suess-esque world, serene music, and thought provoking puzzles make this one of the most rewarding puzzle games I have ever played.
	Altered Space: A 3-D Alien Adventure review (GB) Reviewed on July 08, 2013 The 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.
	Heavyweight Championship Boxing review (GB) Reviewed on July 05, 2013 Heavyweight 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, 2013 Really, 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 Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review (PS3) Reviewed on July 02, 2013 Shout... Shout... Let it all out...
