I am a huge fan of Magic: The Gathering. I first started playing back in early college around 1994 – so I’ve seen a lot of the game’s earliest cards. Eventually my friends and I graduated from college and moved on and lacked the ability to play the game anymore.…
Read MoreGame of Thrones is a title I was really looking forward to because I am a fan of the books and television show, but then the initial reviews came out and most of them were middling – some downright hard on the game. I think what you will get out…
Read MoreHere it is. Quite possibly the most reviled Castlevania game of all time (yes, even more than that woeful fighting game, or the terrible Nintendo 64 games), Castlevania Adventure, has arrived on the Nintendo 3DS eShop Virtual Console. Perhaps understanding just how bad the reputation for this game is, it’s…
Read MoreCthulhu Saves The World is a parody-RPG classic. There is absolutely no denying that. The game is worth buying to support the developer for the promotional video alone. You’ll be able to watch it after the break – I suggest you take the time to do so. You’ll laugh yourself…
Read MoreAh, how times have changed. Sonic Heroes once encouraged us to tap into “the real super power of team work”, but Sonic Rivals says evil is so incompetent that the good guys can afford to beat each other up while saving the world. Rivals blends the classic 2D Sonic formula…
Read MoreWe kinda liked the original Zen Pinball when it released last year on the then fledgling Nintendo eShop. In fact, we liked it so much we gave it the Nintendo download game of the year award. So are we up for some more pinball action from this incredibly talented studio?…
Read MoreAs much as I try, sometimes it’s impossible to avoid Gameloft. As a rule of thumb I don’t like what Gameloft produces as it tends to be technically competent, but soulless and cynical copies of better games, but sometimes Gameloft hits the big time with its franchises. Modern Combat is…
Read MoreI’m still not sure Gravity Rush knows what it wanted to be when in development, the obvious gameplay gimmick aside. The open world, cute cel-shaded graphics, platformer- inspired puzzle sequences, RPG-style music and combat that might have been borrowed from an early Kingdom Hearts game never quite mesh together comfortably.…
Read MoreIt’s taken me a while, but I’ve realised this generation that I like military flight simulators – moreso than the FPS genre. From the arcade thrills of the rather brilliant Ace Combat on the 3DS through to the intelligent, explosive action of Birds of Steel, the freedom of movement from…
Read MoreMonkeyPaw has been bringing various PlayStation One titles to the PlayStation Network for a while now. We first started covering these games a year ago, with the likes of Yakiniku Bugyou and Rapid Angel, but now the big kahuna is here. Yes, the publisher’s most requested game, Tomba!, has finally…
