Pushmo is one of those clever little games that can be both relaxing and make you want to hurl your 3DS against the wall. The story doesn’t make much sense but that doesn’t matter, the point of the game is to solve different puzzles by pulling out blocks in order to make platforms appear so […]

When a science experiment goes terribly wrong and a grey goo nano-machine gets loose there are serious implications—and that’s even before the nano-machine finds a time machine. Tasty Planet: Back For Seconds puts you in control of said grey blob as you gradually eat your way through each level, starting with incredibly small objects like […]

Mass Effect 3 brings the greatest science fiction series in recent memory to close with emotion and incredible depth, its controversial ending a brilliant finale to BioWare’s three-part opus. The final chapter of the Mass Effect series (although BioWare and EA are promising more to come) has the player creating or continuing their own protagonist, […]

It’s always upsetting when a sequel to a promising game falls on its face, which is sadly what happened to SWTFU2. The first game in the series was not perfect, but there was so much potential for greatness with the action adventure game where the player controls Starkiller, a Jedi with force powers on overdrive.

Apparently I have no rhythm, a prerequisite to playing this game. Rhythm Heaven Fever is a collection of mini-games that requires you to keep the beat with interesting scenarios happening on screen, similar to its DS predecessor. The controls are simple, you just have to worry about the A and B buttons on the Wii […]

Although Mario Kart 7 has its charms, those wanting a more realistic racing experience need look no further than the latest entry in the high-octane Forza Motorsport series. Forza 4 delivers a fully flushed out racing simulator with more cars and game modes than you could ever want. What stands out the most are the […]

Mario is probably the biggest name in video games. Part of that reason is an impeccable track record for making high-quality games. The Italian plumber continues that trend in his latest 3D platformer. Combining classic side scrolling seen in New Super Mario Bros and the open-world 3D style from Super Mario Galaxy, this is probably […]

I’ll admit it: I’ve never played the Magic trading card game, but after playing the video game version I can see why it has legions of fans. I won’t get into how the game is played—as it’s quite complex—but clobbering enemies is fulfilling and each defeat a learning exercise. Every match will be different and […]

Empress of the Deep is a fun puzzle-adventure game from local indie developer Silverback Productions. You play as amnesiac Anna who finds herself in a mysterious underwater archive of human accomplishment. You have to put the pieces together to find out who you are and why you’re there. If you’ve ever played point-and-click adventures or […]
