You’ve probably read reviews already about Kirby Mass Attack. So you know that it’s a fantastic game and an original concept where you use the stylus and touch screen to guide a mob of Kirbys through 2-D levels. So I decided to do something a little different in my review and focus on the mini-games you can unlock while playing Kirby Mass Attack, because several of them are more fleshed out than past Kirby mini-games. Plus, I just like mini-games anyway. Slight spoiler warning here, too, I guess.

Twisted Pixel is one of my favorite developers of Xbox LIVE downloadable titles. Located in Austin, TX, they’ve made gems like The Maw and Comic Jumper. Now with The Gunstringer, they’ve achieved two firsts. It’s their first Kinect game and their first retail title. In the game, play as a skeleton cowboy as he takes revenge on his posse who turned on him in life. Sounds pretty typical until you realize that the Gunstringer is a marionette puppet and you’re the one controlling his strings!

Recently I wrote a review of Nicktoons MLB, a new baseball game featuring real MLB players and Nicktoons stars. But since I like cartoons so much, I wanted to write a separate blog featuring all the Nickelodeon characters found in MLB, as well as some of my favorite Nicktoons. Kind of like what I did with Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion. So get your peanuts and hot dogs ready as we look at all the characters in Nicktoons MLB. At least the toons anyway, I’m not going into all the real MLB players in the game!

Kids like action figures, and kids like video games, so it only makes sense to try and merge the two together. Well, Activision plans to do just that with Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure. It’s an upcoming video game set to release later next month for all the major current popular gaming consoles. And it stars the famous purple dragon Spyro on a new adventure.
