Game Review: Bakugan: Battle Trainer (DS)
Posted on April 4th, 2010 by
As they say in the business, Bakugan is ‘hot’ right now. More than 55 million Bakugan toys were sold in 2008, meaning that every four seconds; one Bakugan toy is bought in the US. Just like any other popular playthings, Bakugan has its own cartoon show as well, and it’s the top game for boys ages 6 to 12. So what IS Bakugan, anyway? Well, it’s like a cross between a collectible trading card game such as Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokemon, mixed with the classic playground game of…marbles?!? Yup, marbles! Marbles that turn into…monsters! No wonder why it’s so popular with the kids. And now young fans can enjoy their Bakugan in a whole new way with Battle Trainer on the DS.

Our first submitted reader review comes from Some Guy (age 15). We’ve known Some Guy since he was about 12 maybe 13 and he’s always been one of our most eloquent posters. He’s always passionately defended young teens playing M-rated games so I’m particularly excited to see him debut with the infamous God of War franchise. So, parents, want to know what a Teen really thinks? Here you go! -GD

Posted on March 28th, 2010 by
Some video games both suck and blow. But in the case of Shatter, a game that borrows heavily from brick breaking games like BreakOut and Arkanoid, that’s a GOOD thing! Originally a downloadable game for PS3, you can now buy it for the PC from Steam, and it’s well worth the price!
