	Legaia 2: Duel Saga review (PS2) Reviewed on April 07, 2012 Legaia 2: Duel Saga seems to be a throwback to old-school JRPGs, which might satisfy the hardcore RPG gamer looking for some nostalgia. But while striving for the old-school vibe it throws away the many things that made the original Legend of Legaia so innovative and endearing. It is hard for me to recommend this game to fans of the original that may have higher expectations. But then again, it is hard to recommend this game to RPG newcomers as well.
	Dishaster review (A2600) Reviewed on April 04, 2012 I can't really dredge up much on Dishaster except my apathy towards it. Mediocre titles may not score as lowly as a terrible games, but at least the terrible ones have given me something to remember. Sometimes it's better to be a lower number than stuck somewhere in the middle, lost in limbo.
	Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City review (X360) Reviewed on April 02, 2012 While unfortunate, those issues don't really bog down the central selling point of ORC that much, which is four on four online gaming. Neither lush in game modes (total of three without DLC purchases) or revolutionary in approach, I guess some could say it's the greatest weakness of this release, presenting a really simplistic venue. However, ORC more than makes up for that with constant struggles you'll endure in every match.
	Pushmo review (3DS) Reviewed on April 01, 2012 With a seemingly effortless efficiency, the developers of Pushmo have created a puzzler which presents a delicate blend of difficulty and fun, while maintaining variety; things rarely get stale in this downloadable treat.
	Punky Skunk review (PSX) Reviewed on March 31, 2012 Because when I picture a badass, I think of a skunk on a pogo stick.
	Mario Party 9 review (WII) Reviewed on March 30, 2012 Mario Party 9 operates differently. Rather than four players wandering around a board to buy a star from Toad, all the players travel together in a single vehicle, taking turns at being behind the wheel. The boards aren’t circuits; they have a start and a finish, and they feel like the right length – not too short that the game is over too quickly, not too long that the game drags on. If you only have two or three human players, you don’t have to have an AI controlled character if you don’t want...
	Desert Falcon review (A2600) Reviewed on March 30, 2012 Although Desert Falcon tries to be an arcade shooter and a progress quest, it's neither here nor there. The game suffers because of this indecision. Rather than strengthening one aspect, the developers spread their efforts thin, and the end result is a bland, awkward shmup.
	Journey review (PS3) Reviewed on March 30, 2012 The aim of Journey is an attempt at engendering empathy without overtly inserting it. Rather than rely on story to build empathy with a virtual character, Journey offers us the opportunity to empathize with the general human condition.
	Mass Effect 3 review (X360) Reviewed on March 30, 2012 The hype that surrounded Mass Effect 3 was bursting from the seams. A game that has ruffled the collar of the RPG genre, a game that is a prime example of virtual excellence, I can only praise it with sweet tender love. EA and Bioware have pushed the boundaries, massaging the heart and core of brilliance, utilizing their skills to the very limit, stretching the tendon of profound imagination. As the player you can get pushed into the deep end, or you can let the intriguing storyline unfold. It’s...
	Kid Icarus: Uprising review (3DS) Reviewed on March 29, 2012 Kid Icarus is finally back, and in style.
	Dead Island review (X360) Reviewed on March 28, 2012 At first, I honestly thought Dead Island would have been flawed greatly, a game that would only be eligible for the bottom shelf. But I was wrong. Dead Island is actually very well composed and structured accordingly. It can be rough around the edges, it does have its bugs, but I thought its riveting storyline bombarded and killed off the aftertaste. When I placed it into the console, I thought, yet another zombie game that lacks bite and quality. But I was surprised by the depth and intensity. ...
	Demon Attack review (A2600) Reviewed on March 28, 2012 Devilishly great!
	Warp review (PC) Reviewed on March 27, 2012 That second part makes Zero less of something that escaped out of a Cartoon Network special and more of a psychotic killer that will hold no remorse if it will end with him escaping captivity.
	Rocket: Robot on Wheels review (N64) Reviewed on March 27, 2012 Disclaimer: If you actually did buy Rocket: Robot on Wheels, disregard the first paragraph.
	Lode Runner review (WDS) Reviewed on March 26, 2012 That couldn't disguise the exact same levels made by kids pulled off the street long ago back in 1980...when so many Lode Runner games come with level editors (also part of the original) that the developers themselves never seem to use, it's hard to believe much care went into these products.
	Q*bert review (ARC) Reviewed on March 26, 2012 Q*Bert is one of the first arcade games I feel I really solved. I don't mean that I figured how to beat the hardest level until I got bored of it, like you would in Asteroids or something. I also don't mean reaching the end like when you flip the level bit in Pac-Man or even escape Dr. Boom in Cloak and Dagger.
	Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City review (X360) Reviewed on March 25, 2012 Resident Evil games have become a prime inclusion is gamer diets over the years. It’s a brand that has pushed boundaries in the survival horror genre, fastening itself onto the gaming world like a parachute waiting to engage and open. The storylines have always been profound and intriguing, gory and frightening. If you delve your head and mind into the under soil of these games, you will find gold. Capcom worked tirelessly to rejuvenate the genre, back in the nineties, with Resident Evil one and...
	Maximum Chase review (XBX) Reviewed on March 25, 2012 Developed by Genki, the very same who created so many Tokyo Xtreme Racer games, MC is a hybrid title, meshing high-speed chases with on-rail shooting segments, all wrapped in a silly plot told through cutscenes involving live actors in front of CGI backdrops. It's as goofy as it sounds... which is why I wanted it.
	Deadly Premonition review (X360) Reviewed on March 23, 2012 “Visit beautiful Greenvale!”
	Deadly Duck review (A2600) Reviewed on March 22, 2012 Devious. Diabolical. DEADLY!
