Next week’s XBLA offering is entitled Screwjumper! and as you can tell from the above video, it’s more like "falling" than really jumping. Not sure where that other half of that title works into the whole deal, either, but maybe that’s none of my business.
Featuring four singleplayer modes as well as head-to-head multiplayer, there are […]

Namco pumps new life into Dig Dug; fresh sequel apparently in the works
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Whatever happened to Dig Dug? I used to love the old arcade version, but that could very well be attributed to the fact that I was four years old when it came out and I thought the main character was a Smurf. The game saw a sequel, a re-release on XBLA many years later, and […]

Hardware Review: KontrolFreek’s Speedfreek
Category: Xbox 360, Reviews, Hardware, Deals, 1PStart Reviews | Leave a Comment
I have been a huge fan of racing games since I was but a youngling, playing the original Need for Speed on that newfangled PlayStation. At the time I thought it was freaking awesome to see a 3D car slam head-on into a tree. As time went by, and I grew older, I demanded more […]

Valkyrie Sky: The world’s first MMO Shoot ‘Em Up
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Now here’s a rather interesting title out of Korea that I’m 99.99% sure that we will never see here in the States. Valkyrie Sky is, as far as I can tell, the world’s first cross over between the MMO and Shoot ‘Em Up genre.
You can do all the MMO stuff like picking a class, designing […]

Two Worlds Xbox 360/PC to get massive patch, XBL demo
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
So, Two Worlds …
I’m not going to spoil the surprise or anything by saying this but, it’s certainly not BioShock. Or anything other good game, for that matter. Xbox 360 owners can find out tomorrow when a demo for the game will be available on Xbox Live. The demo will apparently offer a large portion […]

Kaz can’t get no satisfaction: Not from Home, at any rate
Category: Wii Xbox 360 Playstation 3 | Leave a Comment
Kaz Hirai, the Tekken character-resembling PlayStation boss, isn’t satisfied. It’s not because nobody else is as impressed as he is with Ridge Racer, it’s because he himself isn’t impressed with one of the PS3’s biggest future hopes, Home.
The displeased Sony Computer Entertainment head confessed that he wasn’t happy with the in-beta version of Home and […]
