My love of pinball has been steady for the vast majority of my life. I certainly can’t even stand in the same room as the ‘Wizards’ out there, but my enjoyment of the game manges to transcend my skill level by far. These days, most of my pinaballing is done electronically, and Zen Studios has emerged as my favorite provider of video pinball. They really established themselves with Zen Pinball, honed their craft to a fine edge with Pinball FX 2, and is continuing to evolve ...
Puzzle games on portable devices are as plentiful as oxygen. However, finding a good puzzle game that not only challenges the player, but also presents a new and unique twist on the genre is a more rare occurrence. While the Professor Layton series may have set an impossibly high bar for every other developer, there’s still plenty of room in the market for another stellar puzzle game. James Noir’s Hollywood Crimes for the 3DS is not that game.
First and foremost, there’s ...
Like so many gamers from our generation that grew up with the first PlayStation, the Resident Evil series has a special place in my heart. Though the franchise has gone through quite a few changes in recent years, the core concept of the game – shoot zombies, stay alive – remains. Eager for a new Resident Evil game, as well as something fun and new to play on my 3DS, I picked up Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D day one without question. Despite having its fair share of flaws, I ...
Let’s face it. The 3DS has been waiting for a premiere exclusive title since its launch earlier this year. Nothing injects life into a Nintendo console like the company’s mascot, Mario. You put those two ideas together in the same equation, and you not only end up getting a true reason to own a Nintendo 3DS, but you also get a fresh new take on one of gaming’s most storied franchises. Super Mario 3D Land infuses modern day technology with concepts and ideas more than two ...
For some, it’s best game to ever appear on the Nintendo 64. For many, it’s best adventure game ever conceived. A breakthrough in video game design at the time, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time garnered universal critical praise in 1998 for many reasons. The high-detailed visuals, which not only managed to fully immerse players into the magical world of Hyrule, but also pave the way for the three-dimensional era. The detail and thought brought to the gameplay, questing and ...
Since the 3DS launched last month, Ubisoft has released six titles for the new handheld. While I will spare you my thoughts on Asphalt 3D, the other games (aside from Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon) didn’t really impress me a whole lot. Even though Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs was somewhat interesting, its repetitiveness and lack of features made it join the infamous “list of missed opportunities”. Well, that list welcomes a new member: Raving Rabbids: Travel In Time 3D. No, ...
No, Splinter Cell 3D isn’t a brand new game featuring the most incredible spy in the video game industry (sorry Mr Bond). No, it’s actually a port of the 2005, critically-acclaimed, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory. Why Chaos Theory and not the first Splinter Cell? Or even an original storyline? Only Ubisoft Montréal knows the answer to that. Still, seeing Sam Fisher’s third adventure among a list of rather disappointing 3DS titles can only be a positive thing for the ...
Pac-Man and Galaga are two of video game history’s finest franchises. From humble arcade beginnings to the current hyper-acid trip interpretations, the two Namco classics have seen dozens of variations over the years. As great as the originals were, the latest incarnation - Pac-Man and Galaga Dimensions - manages to be a rather mundane affair. With rehashes of four titles and only two new very average game modes, Pac-Man and Galaga Dimensions does little to expand the 3DS’ list ...
Ever since Resident Evil 4 came out, Capcom has been looking to top the installment that reinvigorated its flagship series. While Resident Evil 5 was more action-oriented, this latest installment, Resident Evil Revelations, tries to find the perfect balance between the series’ horror roots and the more intense, action-packed approach. Does this handheld installment succeed at providing the best of both worlds, or will it scare players away from the franchise? We’re here to let ...
I wasn’t expecting much from the 3DS version of The Sims 3. I kept saying the words “dumbed down”,”ugly”, “glitchy” and “barely playable” so if in case it sucked, my heart wouldn’t be shattered into million pieces. If you’ve read my Xbox 360 review, you may understand my state of paranoia. Already having created a solid game for PCs two years ago, my expectations were rather low for that one too as well. Luckily, the console ...
