  • Aliens: Infestation Review

    Posted: October 20, 2011

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    Aliens: Infestation delivers an excellent take on the universe created in the films, and it should appeal to fans of classic video games of the sort that were coming out at around the same time as the movie.

  • Bust-A-Move Universe 3DS Review

    Posted: April 4, 2011 | 4 Comments

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    The venerable classic of the connect-three puzzle genre returns for another outing. Now in 3D, Bust-a-Move's gameplay remains classic, but the 3DS version's omission of multiplayer assures that bursting bubbles on the go will be a lonely endeavor.

  • Pokemon Black and White Review

    Posted: March 25, 2011 | 42 Comments

    Average User Rating 5 / 5

    Pokemon Black and White are the latest RPGs from Game Freak and Nintendo.

  • PilotWings Resort 3DS Review

    Posted: March 23, 2011 | 7 Comments

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    PilotWings Resort hits the same highs and same lows of the previous two games, but it does it in skeptic-converting 3D. The game doesn't last long, but it's a beautiful, (at times) peaceful ride that sets a solid foundation for what the 3DS is capable of delivering in the future.

  • Okamiden Review

    Posted: March 15, 2011 | 16 Comments

    Average User Rating 4 / 5

    The first follow-up to Clover's standout Zelda tribute struggles mightily to ape the PS2/Wii original. But the DS can only go so far, and the toned-down graphics leave Okami's flaws in sharp relief. Grade-school dramatics and endemic hand-holding make Okamiden feel as immature as its protagonists.

  • de Blob 2 for the Nintendo DS Review

    Posted: March 2, 2011 | 1 Comment

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    De Blob 2 is a solid platformer with tight controls, charming presentation, and some neat gimmicks. It won't present much challenge to older players and is over too soon, but it's a polished title that would make a fine kid's game.

  • Radiant Historia Review

    Posted: February 1, 2011 | 7 Comments

    Average User Rating 5 / 5

    Radiant Historia transforms the classical, Japanese RPG into a Groundhog's Day-style time-traveling adventure where there's always another chance to get it right.

  • Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded Review

    Posted: January 12, 2011 | 44 Comments

    Average User Rating 4 / 5

    Sora is back in this port of Square Enix's 2008 mobile phone game. While there's plenty of Disney and Final Fantasy fan service, the fact that it's little more than a rehash of Kingdom Hearts with an inconsequential story that might drive away even ardent fans.

  • Golden Sun: Dark Dawn Review

    Posted: November 30, 2010 | 23 Comments

    Average User Rating 5 / 5

    Golden Sun: Dark Dawn is a graphically impressive turn-based RPG that reeks of nostalgia while still managing to feel fresh. However, it is held back from perfection by its lack of challenge and an insistence on long winded exposition.

  • Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem Review

    Posted: November 23, 2010 | 1 Comment

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    Though it's not the Mini/Baby yaoi crossover recently predicted by industry analyst Michael Pachter, Mario and Donkey Kong's fourth handheld showdown is nothing to thumb your nose at. The difficulty is just right, the create and share mode is back, and Mario's taste in women has migrated to Slutsburg. Wind ?em up: it's puzzle time.

  • Super Scribblenauts Review

    Posted: October 12, 2010 | 8 Comments

    Average User Rating 3 / 5

    Super Scribblenauts's concept is more impressive than the actual game, but those who enjoyed the first title will likely find the sequel to be just as enjoyable.

    Average User Rating 5 / 5

    Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light delivers an all-new hand-held adventure that plays like an old-school role-playing epic. Retro-gamers and newcomers alike will enjoy this RPG throwback.
