Gaming Fleshlight: A Portable NES Cartridge

This is amazing. Nothing more needs to be said.

This may be the greatest portable system ever created, though the SEGA Nomad is hard to beat (boy was that convenient /end sarcasm). Some awesome person has apparently decided to take an NES cartridge, fuse it with an NES controller, and install a portable media player inside this beautiful freak of nature.

iPhone: FlagTrophy Review

 I've got nothing, but flag does rhyme with dag...which is Pikey for dog.

FlagTrophy is a great game for anyone interested in learning what flag belongs to what country, or for those wishing to test their knowledge. It features a decent challenge and can be fun for those with a curious mind, but it’s not without issues.

iPhone: Board Games !!! Review

 The equivalent to your local Walgreens board game mega pack

  • Game: Board Games !!! (v1.0.2)
  • Developer: Samir
  • Price (at time of review): Free
  • Release Date: 10/1/2009

Board Games !!! is a collection of nine different board games including checkers, chess, and othello.  The board games are either hit or miss in functionality and the difficulty level is very inconsistent. The production value is very low and it really shows when you dive head first into the game.

iPhone: FunFun DrawPoker Review

It's 5-card draw; nothing more, nothing less...

FunFun DrawPoker is a perfectly adequate poker game for anyone who just wants to play poker without complication. It may not feature many bells or whistles, but what do you expect from a free game? That being said, it does what it needs to do and that will likely be enough for most casual poker fans.

iPhone: 3D Checkers Review

It may not look too bad, but looks are often deceiving.

  • Game: 3D Checkers (v2.0)
  • Developer: koduco
  • Price(at time of review): Free
  • Release Date: 9/12/2009

Checkers isn’t the most complicated game, but that doesn’t make it an easy game to create in video game form. 3D Checkers has potential; it looks good and has a fairly nice presentation. Sadly the game features dumb AI and unresponsive controls.

The PSP Go: Now an Even Bigger Rip-off

Kaz Hirai is currently thinking about how he can screw every PSP owner even more!

Just when you thought the PSP Go couldn't get any worse, Sony decides to add another kick to the balls. It seems that there will be no UMD transfer program for all those early supporters of the PSP. That means that every single UMD is essentially worthless now. I must thank Sony for giving me yet another reason to never buy a PSP Go.

TGS 2009: The Last Guardian

Here's to hoping they don't kill off this lovely creature...

Ico and Shadow of the Colossus are two of the best Playstation 2 games you'll ever play. I personally believe that Shadow of the Colossus is one of the greatest games that I've ever played. Team ICO was responsible for those games and their newest game, The Last Guardian, looks to follow quite fittingly in their footsteps.

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review

The art is beautiful, but don't expect much variety.

Imagine a world in which Disney created hentai porn. Imagine the beautiful hand drawn art of Disney, mixed with writing found in the porn industry. That’s the kind of feeling I get after playing Muramasa: The Demon Blade. The game is gorgeous and I found myself playing it for hours, but the more I played it, the less interested I became in it.

Shadow Complex: The Return of Console Side-Scrollers

Playing through Shadow Complex has got me thinking; at what point did game designers stop listening to what we want, and instead let focus groups (and the people who never really buy the games) dictate what we want?

A perfect example of this would be Sonic the Hedgehog. For years the gaming community has been screaming for an old Sonic; a 2-D Sonic, side scrolling Sonic. One day a video leaked and it was for a new Sonic game; a new side-scrolling Sonic game. Classic Sonic fans everywhere were excited. We patiently waited for confirmation that it was a real game. It was real, but the joy we felt wouldn’t be lasting too long. The next video they showed us featured something different, something we didn’t want. What we got was a video of a hack-n-slash level, where Sonic became a “Werehog”. We all groaned, knowing this was not going to be the game we all wanted.
