NBA Jam On Fire Edition Review
With physics-defying dunks, players with oversized heads, and the ability to set people on fire, the NBA Jam series is not an authentic take on anything. It is, however, a hell of a lot of fun, especially with a group of friends. With the cancellation of NBA Elite 11 last ye... [read more]
Sonic Generations 3D Review
This video notwithstanding, I have been fairly kind to Sonic the Hedgehog, giving the 3DS version of Sonic Colors a 9, and an 8.5 to Sonic the Hedgehog 4 Episode 1 . This is partially because I am a newcomer to Sonic’s games, and partially because Sega has been putting a ... [read more]

LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean Review
Like Madden or the inevitable movie tie-ins, LEGO games are starting to be more commonplace, leaving no license safe from their blocky heads and stackable bodies. If it's popular, it will be made into a LEGO game. This leads us to the latest game in the series, LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean for the Nintendo DS.

Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded Review
Another year, another Kingdom Hearts title. This time, however, it’s another Re title: �Re:Coded.� This entry in the Kingdom Hearts saga is unique in that it started off as a cellphone game in Japan and was a couple of years later ported to the DS. With no Kingdom Hearts 3 on the horizon and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream, Drop, Distance coming soon for the 3DS, can Re:Coded satisfy fans until then?

Sonic Colors Review
If there is such a thing as �un-jumping the shark� Sonic the Hedgehog just might be doing it. Earlier this year, Sega released Sonic The Hedgehog 4: Episode 1, which took the series back to its 2-D roots. Episode 1 was a good game, but it played it safe and didn’t experiment with the formula any. Sonic Colors, on the other hand, tries something different by giving Sonic some new color-based powers.

Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light Review
In a land far away, a mysterious crystal calls on four �Heroes of Light� to venture out into the world to stop an evil that is plaguing the land and its inhabitants. Sound familiar? It should, because that was the basis of Square’s first RPG: Final Fantasy. It is also the basis of Square-Enix’s latest game: Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light� for the DS. Instead of a just a graphical face-lift, like previous iterations of the game, Square decided to start over. I say �start over� meaning: How would a Final Fantasy game be like if Square were a new company today? How would they use current technology to create a memorable game that gamers new to the series and to RPGs in general could get into?
