Cthulhu Saves the World review (X360)Reviewed on July 31, 2011On occasion, the tributes to its inspirations are a bit over-enthusiastic and the frequent fourth-wall breaking can be obnoxious, but the vast majority of this game is well written and funny. |

Tales of Vesperia review (X360)Reviewed on July 29, 2011Even when it stumbles - and make no mistake, it stumbles - it's hard to not like Tales of Vesperia. It's big, dumb, JRPG fun. |
||
Door Door review (NES)Reviewed on July 28, 2011A game like this thrives on simple, addictive and fast-paced gameplay. It has simplicity down pat, but where it falters is speed. |
||
Antipole review (X360)Reviewed on July 26, 2011Antipole is like a blast from the past, except it came out recently. It's loaded with simple 2D platforming and basic gunplay, but the game is far from easy. Your character's motions are fast and intense, poignantly loose to add challenge to the platforming aspect. Timing your jumps and maneuvering is the key, but it's not all that will save your red-coated butt. |

Samurai Warriors Chronicles review (3DS)Reviewed on July 25, 2011There could have been so much more to Samurai Warriors Chronicles…but there isn’t. |
||
Gradius III & IV review (PS2)Reviewed on July 24, 2011You poor bastards. |
||
Tomena Sanner review (WII)Reviewed on July 20, 2011A thankfully not-so-endless runner |
||
Lair review (PS3)Reviewed on July 19, 2011The game from this point on expertly goads you into taking on the role of the righteous Asylian dragon knight Rohn in his quest to stamp out the barbarian Mokai hordes. Even to the point where our hero proclaims fateful phrases such as “God was with us today!”, while making the skies “Rain with Mokai blood”. You burn them out of the sky, torch the screaming soldiers with dragon fire. (...) |

Dash Galaxy in the Alien Asylum review (NES)Reviewed on July 18, 2011Who could forget the feeling that you had wasted all those weeks of allowance after purchasing Dash Galaxy? You felt like you worked your tush off for a meager prize and you refused to be disappointed by it. You wanted to finish it to get your money's worth, but you knew you would never succeed. |

Gradius Deluxe Pack review (SAT)Reviewed on July 17, 2011If there's one thing I can take away from Gradius Deluxe Pack, it's that there's a right way and a wrong way to make a challenging game. |
||
Sex Games review (C64)Reviewed on July 13, 2011False advertising |
||
Eternal Sonata review (PS3)Reviewed on July 12, 2011The creative premise of this action RPG is that the composer Chopin is a playable character who inhabits a world that he thinks is a dream. Here, instead of playing the piano and composing music, he fights alongside a collection of teenage girls and boys, three 8 year olds, a prince and his consort, and some rebels as they struggle against a devious Count Waltz who is hell bent on turning the population into mindless soldiers. Musical terms and motifs dominate: names are musical terms, with the ... |

Everblue review (PS2)Reviewed on July 12, 2011You start the game as Leo, a rookie diver on the Caribbean island of Daedalus with this mysterious death in the back of your mind, and a lot to learn about diving. |
||
WWF No Mercy review (N64)Reviewed on July 10, 2011It is a timeless wrestling game -- one with a still faithful following, one with a generation of devotees steadfast that it has not yet been eclipsed -- that reminds us how mortal we are. |
||
Wing Arms review (SAT)Reviewed on July 10, 2011When I play an aerial combat game, I expect a whole lot of Pew! action. You know, here a Pew! There a Pew! Everywhere a Pew! Pew! We all do. |
||
Zapper review (GCN)Reviewed on July 07, 2011Zapper seldom has any interesting or impressive scenes. You do much the same on every level, perform the same jumps, dodge the same traps, kill the same enemies, and even discover the same secret areas. |
||
Portal review (PC)Reviewed on July 04, 2011Valve doesn’t just do original game-play. The game-play may make a game good, but the experience and overall package make it great. Valve have created a breath of fresh air using many ideas from Half-Life. The protagonist remains quiet and can only be seen through portals, and the ambience of a science facility draws many parallels to Black Mesa. |
||
Switchball review (PS3)Reviewed on July 03, 2011With uninteresting puzzles and gameplay, Switchball becomes little more than a game of struggling against awkward controls and heavy eyelids. It's very relaxing, but that's the trouble. It's too relaxing. |
||
Red Faction: Armageddon review (PC)Reviewed on July 01, 2011Armageddon takes the core elements that attracted all of us to the series in the first place and combines them to create a solid game that series fans can't afford to miss. |
||
Fossil Fighters review (DS)Reviewed on June 30, 2011The hammer chips and softens the tough outer layer of the fossil rock while the drill carefully cleans away the remaining sediment without obliterating the delicate skeleton underneath. Upgrades give you stronger versions of these tools, but because of their strength, your chances of breaking certain bones are much greater. |
