The Nintendo Download brings on new WiiWare

September 20, 2012

La Mulana/Nintendo 3DS/nintendo download/Nintendo Wii

It’s kind of a rare sight these days, but there is indeed new WiiWare in the Nintendo Download this week. None other than Indiana Jones Professor Lemeza makes his debut in La-Mulana. An old school platformer, La-Mulana was released in Japan to some pretty solid reviews. I myself have heard…

Apple/EA/iPhone/iPhone 5/Opinion/Square Enix

For many gamers, the iPhone (and iPad, and Android, but for convenience I’m going to just use “iPhone”) is a somewhat frightening prospect. The lack of physical buttons and the mass of $0.99 unengaging minigames makes for a gaming platform that many would rather ignore. But in reality it’s impossible…

Trailer: See lots of Totori on her Vita outing

September 20, 2012

Atelier Totori Plus/Gust/PlayStation/PlayStation Vita/trailer

Atelier Totori Plus is going to be great. There’s no doubt in my mind that GUST is going to port one of the best PS3 JRPGs to the Vita just perfectly. And the trailer below is backing me up. Totori might “just” be a port, but portable Atelier games in…

Dynasty Warriors on the iPad? Holy crap!

September 20, 2012

Apple/Dynasty Warriors/Dynasty Warriors Slash/iPad/iPhone/Tecmo Koei

As anyone who knows me knows, I’m a big (understatement) fan of Tecmo Koei’s Warriors games. I just have to play every single one that is released, and to date, the iPhone and the iPad have been my own gaming devices Warrior-less. That all changes today. In Japan, Dynasty Warriors…

RAW is the Xbox Live Update

September 20, 2012

Fire Pro Wrestling/Jet Set Radio/RAW/Realms of Ancient War/Xbox 360/xbox live update

It’s a nice week for original (and unoriginal) arcade titles on Xbox Live with Jet Set Radio, Fire Pro Wrestling (!), and RAW- Realms of Ancient War all landing on the service. The other two games you probably know, but have you heard of RAW? It kind of appeared from…

Review: Eryi’s Action (PC)

September 20, 2012

Indie/Nyu Media/PC/Reviews/Xtal Sword

Player expectation in video games is something that is rarely toyed with. While a game may be filled with many story twists and turns, most games do not surprise players through gameplay alone. Rarely do linear/scripted games surprise players through more than a story or a musical cue, with horror…

The PSN Update is an epic loot grab

September 20, 2012

PlayStation 3/PS Vita/psn update/Sony

Yep, you know what that means right? Borderlands 2 is available on the PSN day and date with the retail boxed version. Do I even have to tell you any of the other stuff that posted? Probably not, since there’s little doubt that Borderlands 2 is the headliner this week…

Midway Arcade Origins brings a virtual arcade to your TV

Midway Arcade Origins/PS3/Warner Bros/Xbox 360

Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment announced that a pretty chunky collection of arcade greats is on the way with Midway Arcade Origins. The set will include some 30+ games along the lines of Gauntlet, Marble Madness, and Rampage. Ahh the golden age of the arcade, I knew it well. Of course…

Avengers Assemble for pinball action

September 19, 2012

Captain America/Hulk/Iron Man/Marvel Comics/The Avengers/Thor/Zen Pinball 2

iOS, Mac, and Android gamers are in for some more Marvel inspired steelball action as the Avengers table makes its way to Zen Pinball 2. The new table is based on this past Summer’s film of the same name and features all the Avengers characters you’d expect as well as…

Review: Guardian Cross (iPad)

September 19, 2012

Guardian Cross/iOS/iPad Review/iPhone Review/mobile gaming/Square Enix

I have been noticing a lot of collectible card games for the iOS lately, and it makes sense really. Matches are usually quick, there is a competitive online element and they tend to be more strategic than action-based. I first heard about Guardian Cross by Square Enix some time ago,…
