    Disney Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse

    Charming, magical, top-notch update of a classic.

    The team behind Castle of Illusion HD has a lot to be proud of; the care and inspiration and attention to detail in this HD update is quite amazing. "Charming" is a word you'll hear a lot in descriptions of this game, a... Read Full Review

    So close, but still not quite there...

    Nanostray 2

    So close, but still not quite there...

    I'm one of the ones who loved Nanostray and wanted more; I asked for a sequel and watched the forums anxiously when it was announced. I was really impressed when the honchos at Shin'en even made an occasional appearance... Read Full Review

    The Wii version of Rock Band 2 is just about perfect!

    Rock Band 2

    The Wii version of Rock Band 2 is just about perfect!

    Let me start this review with a bit of history about myself and the Rock Band series: I started with Rock Band on PS2, then got a 360 and played RB on that system, and had been enjoying the sequel immensely until my 360... Read Full Review

    ...but how much patience do you have?

    LIT is a solid game with an innovative approach to light and dark that some people will thoroughly enjoy. Whether you will be one of those people depends on your patience and your tolerance for repetition. The game L... Read Full Review

    Hard to find a fault in the retro goodness!

    R-Type Dimensions

    Hard to find a fault in the retro goodness!

    I always loved the R-Type games, but never had the skills to get past the second level with the brutal Revival (Classic) respawn system. This package finally lets me see the later levels in both their original pixelly g... Read Full Review

    Katachi no Game: Marubou Shikaku

    Don't miss this one!

    I can't believe nobody seems to be playing this game... it's one of the most perfect examples of what a WiiWare game can and should be. I won't describe the gameplay elements in too much depth here; you can read all a... Read Full Review

    Too Frustrating to be Fun For Long

    Space Invaders Get Even: Gyakushuu no Space Invaders

    Too Frustrating to be Fun For Long

    To start this review out, let me say that I was really looking forward to this game; I love the "Get Even" idea of being the invaders, but actually playing the game is just too frustrating for me to recommend it to anyon... Read Full Review

    A Pleasant Surprise!

    LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga

    A Pleasant Surprise!

    I took a chance and got this game in spite of a lack of reviews, so for anyone else who's wondering about the DS version of the Complete Saga... I played both previous Lego Star Wars on the GameCube and on the GBA, an... Read Full Review

    Best version yet of a classic game.

    BioHazard: Deadly Silence (Limited Pack)

    Best version yet of a classic game.

    The bottom line is this: if you like RE and own a DS, then you should get this game. Yes, this is a ten-year-old game ported from the PSOne, so the gameplay and graphics are a little dated. However, this game looks g... Read Full Review

    For what it is, it's pretty good... but it's NOT a game.

    Hiite Utaeru DS Guitar ''M-06''

    For what it is, it's pretty good... but it's NOT a game.

    Jam Sessions is not a game, or a guitar simulator for the DS. It's a "strum simulator" with some built-in songs to act as a tutorial. That's really all the included songs are for, since there's no scoring or ... Read Full Review

    Nothing classic about it.

    Sega Classics Collection

    Nothing classic about it.

    Ok, so I bought this knowing it was not the original games, but hoping the remakes were at least playable, and that the originals would be in there somewhere to be unlocked. Nope, and again nope. Really, for a compil... Read Full Review

    Mandatory Metroid!

    Super Metroid

    Mandatory Metroid!

    A score of 8.5 for this game is simply criminal. This is the first time I've played it, but I remember the 16-bit days... This game shows amazing depth and incredible design. Every level is organic, yet progress is lo... Read Full Review

    After Burner Climax

    Hours of arcade fun, 12 intense minutes at a time...

    Yes, the newest After Burner game is shallow, flashy, and short. That's the bad news. The good news? It's fast, intense, and gorgeous to see in motion, and you can play it over and over again in the comfort of your ow... Read Full Review

    Guitar Hero: On Tour

    Totally... okay... for portable Guitar Hero!

    Guitar Hero: On Tour is a surprisingly good portable version of the Guitar Hero franchise. The guitar grip is perfectly functional, although it takes a little while to get comfortable with it. It also takes a bit of ... Read Full Review
