Baseball's a great sport as long as you skip the game. It's endlessly entertaining reading about fantasy fanatics, players' per-pitch pay, the upside of 46th round draft picks, concession prices and anything that is the dugout of despair known as the Washington Nationals. It's possible I have an attitude because I'm so lousy I've hit myself swinging the bat on more than one occasion. So w... more.

I want to get something off of my chest right here right now, no not sites I used to be affiliated with taking potshots at me or PPG, that is normal and can sometimes be fun exchanging fodder. No, I am talking about sites that charge for reviews of any kind (the point of this editorial is the iPhone/iPod Touch). Here at Pixel Perfect Gaming, we do not accept money in exchange for reviews of games,... more.

As a longtime dweller of Earth's polar regions (north and south), I have a fondness for penguin games that go beyond the usual "aww, aren't they cute" sentimentality. So for me to spurn one quickly, it has to be really lousy. Meet Rocket Downhill Penguin, a 99-cent scrolling obstacle game that I tired of with...well, rocket speed. Players tilt their iPhones right and left to guide the pengui... more.

Another "unique and exciting puzzle game." Uh-huh, whatever. Thanks to the attack of the clones after Tetris, Bejeweled, et all, finding worthy newcomers amidst the dreck is as much fun as searching for a missing jigsaw piece. Boxisics isn't even an original; it's a port of the online Flash game Blosics with fewer features. But after buying it for reasons not entirely clear – other than the p... more.

One of my favorite review columns was writing about "one-touch" games, designed largely for the handicapped, where all control happened by pressing one key (they could interface with custom on/off devices those with physical impediments could operate). Many of the concepts and control schemes – some allowing navigate-and-shoot spaceships or full platform game movement – were ingenious.  Th... more.

Capcom released Street Fighter IV on iPhone/iPod Touch yesterday (sure we are a day behind, takes time to put together a nice news post rather than just copying the Press Release and posting that, like other sites).  Street Fighter IV makes use of an innovative control scheme that is tailored for the fighting games' debut on the controller-less handheld. Capcom hasn't forgotten the modes, a st... more.
