Rocksmith

Calling Rocksmith a game is a misnomer. It is simply a guitar teaching aid, that happens to play on consoles.

Rocksmith redefines what we call a "game." Technically you score points and can compete of sorts in a variety of minigames with the Internet at large. But that would belittle the true value of this title. I have had a... Read Full Review

Layton Kyouju to Akuma no Hako

Anyone that enjoys brainteasers will love the game. The pleasant story and atmosphere just makes it that much better.

As a child, my mom used to buy all sorts of brainteasers books for me, and I chewed through them. Now I get to spend all day on my DS racking my brain in order to figure out the mystery of the latest Professor Layton ti... Read Full Review

Wii Sports Resort (w/Wii MotionPlus)

For what the Wii system is, this game is a must-have in your library. It's a fantastic party game.

I don't understand the "hardcore" gamer crowd sometimes. They've been hating on the Wii for a million years now because either a game doesn't utilize the motion controls right or more commonly that the motion controls f... Read Full Review

The King of Fighters XII

I waited HOW long for a re-birth of my favorite fighter for them to completely mess it up?

Let me start off by saying that I am a big King of Fighters fan, and have been for quite some time. I've been tracking this game since I first saw an early build of the gameplay, because holy damn the new graphics are... Read Full Review

Pocket Monsters Platina

The Pokemon formula is still quite fun and addicting; why can't they speed up the gameplay already?

I love strategy, and while in a very simplistic form, Pokemon has continued to deliver a fine RPG style with strategic battles that I still really get into. I haven't played a pokemon game since the original Blue, so I ... Read Full Review

Gensou Suikoden Tierkreis

Inexplicable changes to the Suikoden formula and an extremely slow plot mar an otherwise fun title.

I'm okay with a Suikoden that isn't set in the same world as previous titles. The plot in the game I found to be quite enjoyable. I found the concept of multiple universes that are all winding down towards the same fat... Read Full Review

Genmu no Tou to Tsurugi no Okite

Mind-numbing grind-fest dungeon crawl old-school action, for the win!

I grew up on DOS games. One of which I remember very well was the Wizardry series. I understand that these types of games aren't for everyone, but if you love to meta-game and miss the old days where video games expl... Read Full Review

Chrono Trigger

It's still one of the all-time greats but I don't feel it's aged particularly well.

Chrono Trigger was one of the all time greatest RPGs during the golden era of the SNES. I loved it as a kid and was really looking forward to replaying one of my childhood favorites again. The gameplay was just as I ... Read Full Review

Megami Ibunroku: Devil Survivor

This is one of my favorite games in my entire video game library. Exceptional Strategy RPG for fans of the genre.

I stayed away from the Shin Megami Tensei games on the PS2 because while they looked pretty good and were made by one of my favorite publishers, it looked like the entire series was Otaku fodder without much for the west... Read Full Review

Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure

Easily one of the most quirky, fun and unique titles on any system.

I consider myself an "adventerous" gamer. I tend to look at a wall of video games, ignoring the obvious "must plays" for any given system and instead focusing on indie gems. It's no wonder I fell in love instantly with... Read Full Review
