Mortal Kombat (Xbox 360)

Mortal Kombat review (X360)

Reviewed on April 23, 2011

Mortal Kombat seems now to be a good ol' friend of us gamers, having been splattering our screens with decapitated heads and ridiculously bloody limbs for nearly two decades, and whilst it's always nice to have a polished and sparkling new addition to an old saga, of course there's always that running risk of defacing a series which has set such a high bench mark for fans internationally.

Pac-Man (Atari 2600)

Pac-Man review (A2600)

Reviewed on April 23, 2011

Near-death experiences result in a dead Packy lying in a pool of ectoplasm. Tempting fate, moving recklessly and taking chances were what Pac-Man was all about. Take that away and you rob the game its soul.

Crysis 2 (Xbox 360)

Crysis 2 review (X360)

Reviewed on April 18, 2011

Crysis 2 is easily worth checking out for reasons that go beyond looks (and given how long it is, thank Christ for that). Crytek grants us the ability to turn invisible, leap from the roof of a very tall building and power-kick a parked car into an enemy soldier’s face all within the span of a few seconds, and it’s for those moments that Crysis 2 doesn’t blur together with the pack of steely grey twitch shooters on the market.

Vice: Project Doom (NES)

Vice: Project Doom review (NES)

Reviewed on April 13, 2011

If you need a break from the slashing and running, there a few driving and rail shooter levels. Yeah, Vice is like The Adventures of Bayou Billy, except fun. What better way to break from laser-whipping animals and Asian stereotypes than plugging a few bullets into ninjas?

Mass Effect 2: Arrival (Xbox 360)

Mass Effect 2: Arrival review (X360)

Reviewed on April 11, 2011

Arrival’s only purpose is to reiterate what we already know, which is that the Reapers are on their way and that everything we’ve done so far has only delayed the inevitable. Even a climactic encounter with Harbinger only sees him repeating what he’s been shouting at you for the entire game (and, for that matter, what Sovereign was shouting at you in the last game).

Ninja Crusaders review (NES)

Reviewed on April 06, 2011

Turns out the shurikens aren't getting the job done. They provide great range, but our ninja may as well be throwing butter knives.

Top Spin 4 (PlayStation 3)

Top Spin 4 review (PS3)

Reviewed on April 05, 2011

If the aim for a good sports-game is to allow the player to experience TV-moments on the screen, only without all the waits and commentary. And while being able to influence the events believably – without needing the years and years of training and repetition that would be needed in real life. If that is the aim, then there are a few things that need to happen.(...)

MLB 11: The Show review (PS3)

MLB 11: The Show spent the off-season focusing on core mechanics and the latest entry delivers substantially.

Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES)

Super Mario Bros. 3 review (NES)

Reviewed on April 04, 2011

The graphics are far more detailed than the original Super Mario Bros. with a much higher color count and larger enemy sprites. There are new enemies you can hop on and ride, giant shoes to ride in (Seriously!), fire snakes, and an angry Sun. Each world has a theme, such as water, giant, ice, and sky with some enemies being unique to each world and some unique to a level.

Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES)

Super Mario Bros. 2 review (NES)

Reviewed on April 04, 2011

The gameplay resembled practically nothing of the original Super Mario Bros., but fans didn’t care. It gave us a completely unique game that was enjoyable in its own right, even if it wasn’t a true Mario game.

Assault Suit Leynos 2 (Saturn)

Assault Suit Leynos 2 review (SAT)

Reviewed on April 03, 2011

Assault Suit Leynos 2 is still a good purchase for your Sega Saturn, but don't try paying an arm and a leg for a copy expecting some sort of heavenly masterpiece.

Yakuza 4 (PlayStation 3)

Yakuza 4 review (PS3)

Reviewed on April 01, 2011

“And the unarmed running hitman as Kazuma Kiryu, the legendary former fourth chair of the Tojo clan, who now runs an orphanage as a tax-shelter at Okinawa. Very well. As he enters the roof, the 100 billion yen and the third gunman also arrive. The first gunman has trailed Kazuma through the building, and casually walks around the scene while the two people on the roof speak endlessly about the past as only 40-year olds can".

Super Mario Bros. review (NES)

Reviewed on March 30, 2011

You’ll find that every plat-former made since then has copied the formula of Super Mario Bros. to some extent. Characters collect items, find new ways to defeat enemies, and explore “levels’ of unique environments.

Boxing (Atari 2600)

Boxing review (A2600)

Reviewed on March 30, 2011

Boxing by Activision, is one of the first boxing video games ever created (if not the first) for the home video game console. The game play is simple, yet enjoyable. You play as a Boxer 1 (AKA White Lightning) who challenges Boxer 2 (AKA Black N’ Decker) to a friendly exhibition match.

Homefront (Xbox 360)

Homefront review (X360)

Reviewed on March 29, 2011

Before we even have a gun in our hands, Kaos sends us through a Modern Warfare-esque “sit in a vehicle and watch stuff happen” introductory sequence, during which we’re shown a young couple being lined up on a busy street and shot while their crying toddler watches. By the second level, we see the corpses of American civilians being dumped by bulldozers into mass graves. Jeez. Slow burn much, Homefront?

WWF War Zone (Nintendo 64)

WWF War Zone review (N64)

Reviewed on March 28, 2011

The World Wrestling Federation was undergoing a major facelift as the late 1990's came around. Ridding itself of the stale, 'family friendly' legacy from the decade before, it stood up to growing competition from both WCW and ECW and began offering a far more cut-throat, near-the-knuckle product. The Federation's last video game release, In Your House in 1996, couldn't have been further removed from this. It was time for developer Acclaim to redeem itself...

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn (DS)

Golden Sun: Dark Dawn review (DS)

Reviewed on March 28, 2011

They then thrust them into a meek storyline that does nothing to supplement the Golden Sun epic or answer the questions made at the end of The Lost Age, only gives you random, useless insights to the after-effects of Issac and his group’s end goal. Most of these are meaningless—what alchemy did to the land, how vibrant the earth has become—or long-winded recaps about what happened in the first two games.
