Cary’s “Best Games of the Year 2011 Awards Show!”
Posted on December 26th, 2011 by
Welcome everyone to the “Cary’s Best Video Games of 2011 Awards Show!” I’m your host, Cary Woodham, and tonight we’ve got a lot of great special guests: two dogs, Missile the Pomeranian from Ghost Trick and Chibiterasu from Okamiden. Also, She-Hulk from Marvel vs. Capcom 3, Tifa from Dissidia 012, and Reiko Nagase from Ridge Racer 3D. Plus Rayne from BloodRayne: Betrayal and Toad from Mario Kart 7! Not to mention Wheatley from Portal 2 and other robot friends like Fi and Scrapper from Skyward Sword! OK, none of those are really guests, but I think if someone drew all those characters up on stage, that would be some pretty neat fanart, don’t you think? All right, enough silliness from me, let’s get onto the games!
Pinfall
Posted on December 22nd, 2011 by
I first learned about Pinfall by accident at the Apple App Store, which is odd because it’s made by a friend to this site, and of mine, named Simon Windmill. I wish he’d told me about it sooner because it’s come to dominate the lives of the gamerfamily. Here’s why: It’s awesome.

Nano Assault (3DS)
Posted on December 14th, 2011 by
Nano Assault has a bigger legacy than what you might think. The developers of the game, Shin’en, have had a history of making visually stunning arcade style shooters on portable systems. It started on the GBA with Iridion 3-D and its sequel. Then on the DS, we had Nanostray. Nano Assault is actually a sequel/spinoff of Nanostray. Except instead of exploring the vastness of outer space, you’ll pilot tiny nano ships as you venture into inner space, blasting microbes and bacteria as you try to stop a deadly virus from spreading across the universe!
