  • Review: LA-Mulana EX (PSVita)

    Posted by on July 1, 2015 under Portables, Reviews
    Good platform games don't come along very often, especially on the same scale of LA-Mulana EX for PSVita. It provides a large, expansive world that is teeming with enemies, secrets, and traps, that are just waiting to be discovered by any gamer willing to take on the challenge. But most importantly, you can't just start playing and expect to get anywhere. In fact, LA-Mulana is very meticulous abou... more.
  • Review: Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype (PSVita)

    Posted by on June 3, 2015 under Portables, Reviews
    Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype is a hybrid, hell bullet shooter that first appeared on Xbox 360 back in 2010. It provided a melding pot of moody galactic-style music, hell-based shooting, endless waves of enemy spacecraft, and imaginative alien worlds that felt like they were lifted from an arcade cabinet. Like any shooter, Soldner-X 2's story is more of an atferthought, as the primary focus is on e... more.

  • Review: Etrian Mystery Dungeon (Nintendo 3DS)

    Posted by on May 24, 2015 under Portables, Reviews
    Taking a vacation should involve enjoying the finer things in life - relaxing on the beach, staying up late, and spending extended time with family and friends. In Etrian Mystery Dungeon - a top down role-playing game that was co-developed by Spike Chunsoft and Atlus Games - the ideal vacation is touring the town of Aslarga, a place known for the 'best view' around. But unlike most of your tour gr... more.
  • Review: Fighting Fantasy BloodBones (iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad)

    Posted by on May 22, 2015 under Portables, Reviews
    The Fighting Fantasy series is usually a collaborative effort between Steve Jackson and Ian Livingstone, but Bloodbones - a lost adventure that would have been the 60th book in the series had it been published - was actually written by freelance writer Jonathan Green and illustrated by Tony Hough. The adventure centers around the 'Old World', where pirates sail the high seas and where every town h... more.

  • Review: Cities: Skylines (PC)

    Posted by on April 17, 2015 under PC, Reviews
    Cities: Skylines is the latest city management simulator by Paradox Interactive, where you control your very own metropolitan city.  Unlike other games in the genre (i.e. think Sim City), Skylines is user-friendly and a lot of fun to play. You also won’t find the same type of gameplay that stumps players every step of the way. The game doesn’t hold your hand, but it does provide an in-depth t... more.

    Ghost hunting has been engrained in our society by a rising interest in the supernatural, mostly fueled by popular paranormal shows such as Ghost Adventures (Travel Channel) and Ghost Hunters (SYFY). It should come as no surprise then that a video game based on the premise would finally surface on a current generation console system. Developed by Toybox, Tokyo Twilight Ghost Hunters is a hybrid vi... more.
