	Rhythm Heaven Fever review (WII) Reviewed on June 15, 2013 "As long as you have fun, that's the main thing."
	Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II review (PC) Reviewed on June 10, 2013 Episode II is a good quality, smooth flowing platform game filled with new and retro elements fans will enjoy. It’s going to need to become more than a sum of its parts if it wants to compete in this modern gaming era though.
	FlingSmash review (WII) Reviewed on June 06, 2013 Seeing it from a general consumer's point of view, it's easy to understand why one would pass: an unknown IP starring what looks like a smiley-faced dodgeball with a ponytail, featuring what appears to be uninspired gameplay that could get repetitive fast.
	Sleeping Dogs review (PS3) Reviewed on June 06, 2013 Sleeping Dogs, from United Front Games and Square Enix, is a Grand Theft Auto clone with Batman: Arkym City’s combat and Burnout’s driving.
	Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I review (PC) Reviewed on June 02, 2013 Sonic's 'successor' to the Mega Drive series is certainly not fatally broken, and can be entertaining. It’s a smooth retro-style platformer to casually jump around in, with varied levels and little interesting twists. However the new physics makes things slightly worse, and clumsy design decisions and some uninspiring levels prevent this being the ultimate Sonic return.
	Resident Evil: Revelations review (X360) Reviewed on May 29, 2013 Jill's ass is huge, so there's that.
	ESWAT: Cyber Police review (ARC) Reviewed on May 25, 2013 Perhaps the dorkiest protagonist to come out of Sega.
	Final Fantasy XII review (PS2) Reviewed on May 22, 2013 FFXII is robust from a technical standpoint, it's enjoyable after acquiring a working knowledge of the game mechanics, and there’s a plethora of monster and item hunts to embark on. FFXII at least deserves some respect for what it has attempted, but it’s disappointing it isn’t better than it is
	Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi review (GEN) Reviewed on May 18, 2013 Coming off the heels of Revenge of Shinobi, a highly-praised game during the Genesis' launch year, was Shadow Dancer, a follow-up that Revenge fans weren't expecting.
	Lunar Pool review (NES) Reviewed on May 16, 2013 As a billiards video game released in 1987, Lunar Pool must have served as a respectable simulation for what it was trying to accomplish. Today however, the game feels more like a puzzle game by bombarding players with rather strange looking tables with portals to pocket balls into. The majority of players may brush off the game as hard or antiquated. Others however, may find a long and challenging puzzle game wrapped around the rules of pool.
	Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins review (GB) Reviewed on May 13, 2013 Following in the footsteps on Mario Land, ML2 is filled with wackiness from beginning to end. Its stellar soundtrack, originality and variety in environments more than make up for some of the platforming “floatiness” that is present in Mario's movement.
	Kirby's Dream Land review (GB) Reviewed on May 11, 2013 Not so dreamy...
	Gauntlet II review (NES) Reviewed on May 07, 2013 I dissect a game from my early childhood, does it hold up? only one way to find out.
	WWF Royal Rumble review (SNES) Reviewed on April 29, 2013 Warning: Contains nostalgic ramblings
	Darkest of Days review (X360) Reviewed on April 28, 2013 Darkest of Days isn't going to win any awards for being one of the prettiest games on the Xbox 360, as it's a 2009 title that looks like an indie-made Source game released shortly after 2004's Half-Life 2. But if you've been aware of this game, chances are its looks aren't what piques your interest, instead you're intrigued by the premise: time travel.
	Kabuki: Quantum Fighter review (NES) Reviewed on April 27, 2013 seemingly buried in the NES' great stash of platformers, does this game deserve to be remembered fondly? or be relegated to the "cheap shovelware bin" that games like friday the 13th or super pitfall? only one way to find out.
	Koudelka review (PSX) Reviewed on April 24, 2013 Occasionally, I am overcome by the urge to try something different. When it comes to video games, “different” is precisely the sort of term that someone might use to describe Koudelka. Another apt label is “interesting,” thanks to the variety of good ideas that the developers implemented. Perhaps the game’s most noteworthy quality, though, is the way that it combines familiar survival horror and RPG elements to create a unique new experience with the potential to be truly special.
	Double Dragon III: The Sacred Stones review (NES) Reviewed on April 21, 2013 "THE GREATEST MARTIAL ARTS ADVENTURE SERIES EVER!" - NES Box Cover
	Double Dragon II: The Revenge review (NES) Reviewed on April 16, 2013 Could it be? Technos learned from its mistakes?
	Borderlands review (X360) Reviewed on March 31, 2013 The game play works incredibly well, but more polish on the more superficial aspects would have made this a game worth revisiting. It may have gotten the Game of the Year, but that was then; the GOTY edition with all of the DLC is affordable now and you’ll get a lot of hours out of it, sure. Borderlands 2 improves on its predecessor in every single way, though,
