Metroid Prime: Hunters tries to bring the Metroid experience to the portable DS system, but in that attempt are some major faults. However, the one thing they got right was the multi-player. That was really fun to play. MPH has an average story mode that is lacking many things from the two outstanding Metroid games to come before it on the GameCube. Samus (the main character), is sent to a galaxy, to find and…
Wii Fit was released in May 2008, and with it came the brand new Wii Balance Board. The Wii Balance Board acted as Player 4 in Wii Fit and other games, and the player would use their feet to control the game. Some games require you to lean forward and back, while others require you to lie down and lift your feet off the board. The game costed about AU$150 (the average game costing AU$100). Other video games decided…
2-in-1 Solitaire costs 200 Nintendo Points ($3 AU). The game is basically solitaire. There are two modes; Spider, and Klondike. Klondike is like your average solitaire, where you have to get the piles Ace to King in each suit. Spider requires you to make the Ace to King pile in play, and get all the cards into the piles. The major flaw here is that that's what you would have payed for. That doesn't necessarily mean…
Spore, the successful game by Maxis back in 2008, was a game based off of evolution. It combined different types of game-play, such as strategy, action, and adventure, which are all grouped in levels, or as I call them, "stages of life" . The last stage, the space stage, involved the creature to fly around in a spaceship, negotiate deals, beam up other animals, trade spices, and explore the cosmos. Of all of these,…
I'm from Australia, and this game is called "Art Style: Aquite" Art Style was an excellent series on the WiiWare, spanning many games. The DSi launched in Australia with two of the Art Style games (Digits, and Aquite). Aquite is quite fun, as the player has to shove blocks in and form rows of three. It's like Bejeweled, but has a Tetris feel. The pipe is the main game board, and it is all filled up with randomly…
Metroid Prime 3 is probably on of the worst Metroid games yet. It's not bad, it's just disappointing, because many features and items are not available unlike previous games, and especially after 10 years of getting it right. First thing is that the game starts in a Galactic Fedration Ship. It looks too much like the beginning of Halo. Suddenly, Space Pirates attack the vessel, and three hunters; Rundas, Ghor, and…
Master of Illusion is an unique game for the Nintendo DS. Basically, you do magic tricks. The game comes in a box with a deck of Nintendo playing cards. The cards have very well obscured readings (a symbol to tell what card it is) which set most of the tricks. Overall, this game took a shot and did it decently. The game is split into three categories. The first is Solo Magic, where the DS amazes you with tricks. The…
