Retro City Rampage GS Review

It only took 10 years to make, but this tribute to 80s and early 90s gaming and culture has finally been released on all the major platforms, and the word on the street is that its pretty rad and actually worth the wait - for those of us who really appreciate classic 8 bit gaming.

The concept of designer Brian Provinciano was to remake GTA III for the NES, but eventually it evolved into something much more ambitious and original. If you have a Wii hooked up to a SDTV, thats the way to play this game (as well as things like Megaman 9/10, Cave Story, and the awesome remakes of Excitebike, Gradius and Contra which are found in the Wii Store) - in the roaring pixelated glory of 480i.

Dishonored GT Review

Dishonored

I didnt look at this game too closely until I saw it was getting really good reviews, and I have to say the Steampunk Stealth concept is appealing to me. My problem now is, too many good games and not enough time to play.

Tokyo Jungle

Tokyo Jungle

I was having a conversation with my Dad once when I called something "very unique." He interrupted me and said; "Something cant be very unique. It is either unique or it isnt." Its hard not to think back to that error in usage when I see a game like Tokyo Jungle. Its like one of those game ideas you have in your head, that you probably only talk to your friends about when you are really high, that everyone says "yeah that would make for an awesome game!!!" - but you know it has 99.999999999% chance of never getting made.

The "story" is beyond preposterous. The graphics have been referred to as "disgraceful." The gameplay is grindingly addictive and the concept is simply genius: Grand Theft Hippo... Metal Deer Solid... Fallout: Pomeranian. Whether the game is tremendous fun for you or a little too weird depends on what you want out of a videogame.

Assassin's Creed 3 Naval Warfare

Assassin's Creed III

Ubisoft is trying some pretty ambitious things in Assassins Creed 3. Its the first game which really attempts to pin down the combat of the American Revolutionary War, and apparently naval combat is a huge part of Ubisoft's effort.
