DARK review (X360)Reviewed on August 03, 2013I 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, 2013The 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, 2013It 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, 2013I 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, 2013X-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, 2013This 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. |

Machinarium review (PS3)Reviewed on July 10, 2013Machinarium’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, 2013The 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, 2013Heavyweight 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, 2013Really, 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. |

Final Fantasy IX review (PSX)Reviewed on July 01, 2013In all of its pretty, purposeful pastiche, it forgets it needs to be something playable. |

The Last of Us review (PS3)Reviewed on June 30, 2013Instead, Joel’s personal motives are called into question. As his protection of Ellie becomes more and more desperate, the astute gamer will not be able to escape wondering whether Joel is trying to replace his own lost family with this little girl—leading her into an unbalanced emotional reliance in the process. |

LEGO City Undercover review (WIIU)Reviewed on June 24, 2013Lego City: Undercover is a game I recommend for all the Wii U owners that have been waiting for a new game since launch. The game is hilarious and is fun to play for all ages, for both the casual and hardcore. |

Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan review (3DS)Reviewed on June 24, 2013Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titans is a wonderful throwback to retro RPGs. The game is challenging, incredibly long, and employs a wealth of monsters and items. |

Ghost Squad review (WII)Reviewed on June 24, 2013At a glance, Ghost Squad doesn't seem all too different from yesteryear's Virtua Cop 1 & 2, which the game openly borrows from. |

Half-Life 2: Episode Two review (PC)Reviewed on June 21, 2013Just in case the conclusion to the Half-Life story doesn’t come into fruition whatsoever, it has at least quit while it’s ahead here. Much of the action that made Half-Life 2 enjoyable has been condensed into an intense adventure. |
