It’s deer hunting season on your DS. Deer Drive is a fast action shooting gallery style touch screen hunting game. It’s very similar to the classic title Deer Hunter, except with a quicker pace.
Can you tell “Wii” how to get, how to get to Sesame Street?
Posted on November 5th, 2010 by
For more than 40 years, Sesame Street has delighted and taught children around the world. Heck, even I watched it as a kid back in the late 70’s and early 80’s. Now your kids can have fun and learn with Big Bird and the gang with Cookie’s Counting Carnival and Elmo’s A to Zoo Adventure for Wii and DS (Wii versions reviewed here).

Posted on November 3rd, 2010 by
Zhu Zhu Pets is a popular toy line of battery operated hamsters that roll, chatter, and scurry around little connected playsets. Recently they’ve expanded into other critters as well. Called the Wild Bunch, they include animals like a beaver, rabbit, skunk, and many more. Now your kids can go wild with two new Zhu Zhu Pets games featuring the Wild Bunch on Wii and DS.
Game Review: Kung Zhu (DS)
Posted on November 3rd, 2010 by
Zhu Zhu Pets is a popular toy line of little battery operated hamsters that roll, chatter, and scurry around little connected playsets. They’re generally marketed towards girls, so to get boys interested, they’ve now made Kung Zhu. It’s basically the same toy, except now the hamsters come in wild new colors like army green, have equipable armor, and the playsets are now ‘battle arenas.’ Now both boys and girls (who says girls don’t like to kick butt, too?) can enjoy their favorite hamster fighters with Kung Zhu for Nintendo DS.

One of the better pinball simulations on the Xbox 360 (and one of the best LIVE Arcade games in general) now has a sequel. Pinball FX 2 features four brand new tables, backwards compatibility with your old FX tables, new modes, and ways to track your score online.
Game Review: Bit.Trip Fate (WiiWare)
Posted on November 2nd, 2010 by
There are quite a few of the Bit.Trip games on WiiWare now. They utilize retro styled graphics and sound along with retro themed gameplay for a challenging old school experience. Some of the games in the past have imitated Pong (Bit.Trip Beat) or a 2-D side-scrolling platformer (Bit.Trip Runner). The newest in the series, Bit.Trip Fate, plays like a horizontally scrolling 2-D shooter.
Game Review: Final Fantasy: The 4 Heroes of Light (DS)
Posted on November 1st, 2010 by
Despite its conclusive-sounding name, Final Fantasy is one of the longest running role-playing game series. With more than 20 years under the belt, the Final Fantasy series has undergone a lot of changes. But what about those of us who miss the more ‘old-school’ FF titles? The 4 Heroes of Light for DS is supposed to fill that void.
Game Review: Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals (DS)
Posted on October 26th, 2010 by
Back in the 16-bit gaming days, the Super Nintendo was the best place for enthralling RPG adventures. One of the lesser-known gems was Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals. While it never got as renowned as Final Fantasy 6 or Chrono Trigger, it was a surprisingly playable game in its own right. Lufia 2 featured tried and true turn-based battles, catchy music, and best of all, fun dungeons with brain-teasing puzzles. Now, Lufia 2 is reborn in a totally different reboot on the Nintendo DS.

Last year I reviewed Scribblenauts, a critically acclaimed and highly unique 2-D action puzzler where you type in whatever word your want, and it’ll appear in the game for you to use to solve puzzles and bypass obstacles. Now the sequel, Super Scribblenauts is here. So what makes it so super? You’ll just have to read on to find out.

When Halo Reach came out, video game stores across the country celebrated with Halo launch parties with all sorts of fun stuff. But you know what’s not fair?
