    Far inferior to Brain Age.

    Big Brain Academy

    Far inferior to Brain Age.

    Big Brain Academy just feels like such a half-assed effort to me. I got both DS Brain games at the same time, and love one, hate the other, guess which is which. Each day, you're supposed to take this test in Big Brai... Read Full Review

    Way too short, Jean Reno's voice was dubbed over, and weak writing really hurt this installment. Not a good buy over $20

    Way too short, Jean Reno's voice was dubbed over, and weak writing really hurt this installment. Not a good buy over $20

    The last chapter with Nobunaga Oda, Onimusha 3: Demon Siege falls short in quite a few ways. The story itself is full and rich, but this segment of the story is way too short. It took me 8 hours to beat the game the firs... Read Full Review

    A Dynasty Warriors player's Dynasty Warriors, if that makes sense.

    And here we have yet another spin-off of a Dynasty Warriors game. There seem to be more DW's than Mario games these days. But, if you're a huge DW lover like me, you appreciate every one of them! So, the basics. If yo... Read Full Review

    How is it possible for a $4 game to be so much fun?

    I got PocketBike Racer from BK, and didn't really like it much. But then I got Sneak King. In Sneak King, you try to create BK commercial-able moments using the BK King. You take on challenges, and try to deliver food an... Read Full Review
