She’s a pop star with a song on the billboard top 100 that claims be a rebel, oh boy! I first heard her song Tik Tok back in early January on the radio. At first, I thought it was a new Millionaires song. Then I realized it wasn’t nearly as raunchy or as dance-oriented. Unlike Read more...

PlayStation Home: Still Cool to Hate?

Written on December 24, 2009 at 3:27 am, by

I’ve begun to notice a trend regarding Playstation Home. Remember way back when in 2007 everyone hated on the PS3? There was definitely good reason to do so, but then it seemed like even after the PS3 was doing moderately successful, there were still tons of naysayers. It was programmed into their heads that “PS3 Read more...

Little Girl, or Hardcore Gamer?

Over the past few months, I’ve been collecting games and systems that are known to be for a younger demographic. Systems like the Mattel Hyperscan, Casio Loopy, and the Sega Pico have been victims of my curiosity for the duration of the past year or so.

Far From Perfect, But Close: New Super Mario Bros. Wii

Written on December 7, 2009 at 1:34 am, by

I was thoroughly impressed when I first played NSMB Wii at launch. However, this was definitely not an AAA game of the year title. No, not all was perfect in Mushroom Kingdom.

With the recent release of New Moon into theaters the Twilight saga is back in people’s minds. The new movie brings a spark of excitement to its many fans, but its critics can do little to hide their disdain. I am quite aware of the criticisms of the series, and I wholeheartedly agree.

Why the iPhone will never be a legitimate gaming platform

Written on January 17, 2009 at 5:57 pm, by

I recently read an article about an application for the iPhone and iPod Touch that was similar to Duck Hunt. The game has been taken down due to licensing issues. You know, Nintendo owns the rights to this game. There is another application similar in nature to Duck Hunt still available on the iPod Touch Read more...

This game is one such title that needed much reflection before writing an impressions article. I’ve had this game since October 21st, about a week before the general public got their hands on it.
