Pushmo is one of the most frustrating, clever, entertaining, and addictive puzzle games that I have ever played. I’ve been discouraged lately, because of the number of uncanny IPhone games that people consider to be considered great that I’ve played, though there are only a few exceptions like the overrated (yet great) Angry Birds and a few others. Nintendo has something to be proud of with their Pushmo game (or…
It looks like 7 is not always a lucky number, as I am for the first time actually disappointed with a Mario Kart game. But before I start rambling about what went wrong, I would like to first point out the positives. Peachy! I really liked the originality, design, visuals and layout of some of the tracks like Piranha Plant Slide, Rainbow Road, Shy Guy Bazaar, DK Jungle, Music Park, Bowser’s Castle and Wario’s…
Ever since Braid released, I’ve wanted to buy it. Problem was that it was only for XBOX 360, and I do not have a 360. When I finally learned that it was available for PC, I knew that somehow I was going to wind up getting the game, and did! At first, I didn’t know if my PC would fit the technical requirements that Braid required, because the “Can You Run It?” website said I couldn’t play it, because I didn’t have…
Klonoa Wii (Originally Klonoa: Door to Phantomile that was released on the Playstation in 1997) is a simple, creative, and delightful platformer that is sure to please. The environments in this game are creatively used and graphically beautiful! I like to see the parts of a level being used in the backgrounds, and it makes me think of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door for the Gamecube and Super Paper Mario for Wii…
Bubble Bobble Plus! is a not really a bad game for 600 (or 800 points). 200 levels of bubble shooting, eliminating enemies, and picking up the items that are dropped come to a very well balanced game. You can get 100 more levels by purchasing the extra downloadable content. Add it all together, and you get a $10 (or $12 I guess) game with 300 action packed, old-school style action! This updated version of Bubble…
Well, Pop ‘Em Drop ‘Em SameGame is really a great game to play when you are on the go, waiting in line for something, or even just to pass the time away and kill boredom. Now it’s for WiiWare for only $5! Perhaps this game should be for DS too! Pop ‘Em Drop ‘Em SameGame is a puzzle game where you just simply pop two or more bubbles of the same color, and eliminating as many bubbles as you can for a score. In this…
Super Mario World is none other than a true masterpiece. Everything is practically amazing and durable. This is certainly one of Mario's best games ever made. The graphics are absolutely fantastic and crisp, and the environments and layouts are expertly done. The music is memorable, cinematic, and very impressive. I remember getting this game when it came out back in the day; and, now since it is on Virtual Console,…
The commonly known game known as Super Mario Bros. 3 is simply one of Mario's greatest adventures yet on the NES and now for the Virtual Console. Everything in this game is expertly designed, imaginative, and enduring. This game is sure to please any Mario fan, and any gamer who picks this up will enjoy this. Super Mario Bros. 3 even inspired a cartoon show! I also watched the cartoons when it came on. When I picked…
Super Mario Bros. is still fun to play after all these years. This game is what made Mario famous and yet mysterious. I remember playing this game when I was only 2. Ever since this game came out for NES, I've had dreams and memories of this game. It was always an old childhood favorite of mine; but because time has caught up with my NES, I had to sell it with all its games. When I got a Wii and saw the game for…

I got Sonic Chaos on the release date on VC, and I can say that this game is a disappointment. The “Sonic Spin” move actually did nothing for the game; it just made it simpler! This game is definitely easier than the first and second Sonic Game made for the Sega Master System. I never played this game before, and I made it all the way to the end on my first try. I got 4 continues by the time I got to Dr. Eggman, and…
Absolutely no words can describe how good this game is. The game literally sucks you in as soon as you grab the controller and start the game. This is the most epic and without a doubt the best game I have ever played. The storyline is absolutely captivating, and it leaves you curious and wanting to see more. The graphics may not be the best out there, but I'm here to tell you that graphics are not everything,…
Mario Kart is a great game in every way and is an improvement from the past Mario Karts. Mario Kart is easy to learn and is created for many types of gamers.The Wifi support is just what the DS needs! Racing with people within your own region and even worldwide packs in the most difficult races you will ever experience! Mario Kart is loaded with newer and older tracks and the character selection is just right!…
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 is a good sequel and it did improve on some of the shortcomings that the first one had. However, The sequel came with some new problems that makes it no better than the first. Rabbids 2 is much better when it comes to focusing on the multi-player aspect and the mini-games are funnier to play and watch, but the mini-games, just like the first game of Rayman Raving Rabbids, do get old after…
Rayman Raving Rabbids is a good game that definitely has its hilarious moments! The game has great mini-games, although some games are quite cheap and repetitive. Rayman in this game does not seem to be the center character, the Rabbids are surprisingly! The Rabbids is what makes this game a bit more enjoyable to play and they add an interesting twist to the franchise. I give Rayman Raving Rabbids a 3/5 because I…
Sonic Rush is a good game but there is a little bit more to be desired. Sonic Rush is a lot like Sonic and Knuckles for the Sega Genesis. This updated Sonic game is fun to play and can entertain anyone who grew up with Sonic! The atmosphere in the game is bright and colorful and the layouts are designed well but not not well enough to provide a very hard challenge. The music in this game is what you can expect for a…
Wii Sports is a great party game to play with all your friends. The game is well structured and easy to play. The games in Wii Sports are well chosen, but I wish that there were more games to choose from. I also wish that you could play against your friends and possibly compare scores online. Despite of the minor flaws that Wii Sports has, I give Wii Sports a great rating of 3.5/5 because it's just plain fun! Let's…
Mercury Meltdown Revolution for Wii is a great game for whoever might be bored! Are you not sure whether you should get this game or not? Read my opinion on this game! I like to call this game the spawn of Super Monkey Ball for several of the following reasons. 1. You control a blob of liquid metal instead of a solid monkey in a ball all the time! (Melting Monkeys would not be ideal for Super Monkey Ball!) 2.…
Wii Play is the game you play when you are out of your mind, drunk, or extremely bored. Some the games in Wii Play are fair to play, but it's all flash and absolutely no substance. The games are very basic and can get old very quick. I give Wii Play a 2.5/5 because you can get a better game for $10 on the Wii Shop Channel. I do feel sorry for those who do not have an Internet connection on the Wii because there is…
Mario Kart Wii is an improvement in the series in every way. Like Mario Kart DS, Mario Kart Wii has online support to make your experience more fun. I think that racing with other gamers all around the world is a positive hands on experience on getting the movements of learning how to drive with others on the road, even though you are supposed to hit each other with different odd objects! Kids and even adults can…
Super Smash Bros. Brawl is a revolutionary fighting game that can really be a stress reliever if you are mad at someone but you don't really want to hurt them! Every character and every course is expertly designed for a real fight! The music in the game can please any fan and hardcore gamer who grew up with Nintendo's most iconic games! The Subspace Emissary adds the necessary adventure that the series needed from…
Super Mario Galaxy is a game that definitely lives up to its standards. I do wish that the game could have been more difficult to beat, but in no way this game should be ignored by any. Super Mario Galaxy has what it takes to change the concept of games in a whole new way. The levels in this game is expertly and intelligently designed to make it feel like you're in some kind of dream. It's a shame that a Mario game…
I think that this game has done well in performance. It has beautiful landscapes and graphics; however, the vehicles could look a little better than what they do. The music is just right for a futuristic racing game and it nicely suits every course. The layout of each course is uniquely, intelligently, and well put together and designed. The ability to make your own vehicle is a good addition to the F-Zero formula.…
Super Paper Mario for Wii is a very creative game that definitely lives up to its standards. Being able to switch between 2D and 3D environments really makes the game stand out well compared to the other games on the market. The story in the game is a little quirky and long, but it is well written and surprisingly interesting. Nintendo has taken a successful cinematic approach in making games and Super Paper Mario…
This game can really give you an idea of what Mario is made of! The levels are beautifully crafted and the graphics are pretty good for a SNES game! This might not be the best Mario game made, but the retro RPG elements that are in the game makes it different from all the others. The music is pretty good, but not what it really should be in my opinion; however the battle music is just right! The looks of the…

Tetris has been here for a long period of time. Now, the mother of all puzzle games is back in a whole new way! This time, it's on the console that we all know and love, Wii! Alexey Pajitnov probably did not know what kind of game that he has created, but it has become well known and extremely popular. Today it's one of the best legendary puzzle games that have ever been created. Tetris has had its ups and downs…
Tetrisphere is overall a great game. It's really one of the better puzzle games that Nintendo has released. The game is really fun and addicting, and it can satisfy any type of gamer. It's not as famous or well known as Tetris, but it provides gameplay similar to Tetris. Instead of falling shapes and fusing them to make lines disappear, Tetrisphere is a game where you eliminate Tetris pieces by matching them with…
