NeoGeo Heroes Ultimate Shooting Review

It doesn’t quite match up to others in the bullet hell genre, but it’s unrivaled in the portable market.

There’s one important question you have to ask yourself before bothering to read this review: do you like bullet hell shoot-‘em-ups? If the answer is no, save yourself the trouble and move on. If the answer is yes, or “What the hell is a bullet hell shoot-‘em-up?” please proceed, though the next paragraph might be more than enough for you.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem! Review

A marked improvement from the last two Mini-based Mario vs. Donkey Kong games.

Mario and Donkey Kong have been at it for a long time now. They started their feud in a platforming game, Donkey Kong, which gave way to a puzzle-platformer of the same name on the Gameboy years later. After that, the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series was established, featuring the same puzzle-platformer gameplay found in its predecessor. However, when the series made the move to the DS, Mario gave up chasing Donkey Kong himself, and took use of the minis, which in turn changed the gameplay to pure puzzles. Mini-Land Mayhem is the third entry to feature the minis and the pure puzzle gameplay, but strangely this latest version feels more akin to the platformer entries of the past, thanks to some creative level design, on-the-fly puzzle solving, and boss levels that evoke nostalgia for the original arcade game.

Quake Arena Arcade Review

It's basically a port of a more than decade old game, with worse controls. Sounds enticing, no?

I’ll be the first to tell you how awesome Quake III Arena was back in the day, and still is even today. Fast-paced, twitch shooting, simple-but-effective weaponry, and small close encounter maps made for some of the best multiplayer shooting ever. However, Quake Arena Arcade, which is extremely similar to said game and a port of the ad-driven browser game Quake Live, is a waste. This is not because it's a bad game, but because the essence of the Quake III Arena experience isn't perfectly captured without the use of a mouse and keyboard.

Crazy Taxi Review

Earn thousands of dollars in minutes from the comfort of your own car!

Let's get this out of the way: Crazy Taxi, as it's available on PSN and XBLA is a modified port of a Dreamcast port of a now-classic arcade game. The Dreamcast port added in a second city to chauffeur customers around town, as well as the “Crazy Box” mode, which contains sixteen driving tests to hone and expand players' mad taxi skills. The PSN and XBLA version of Crazy Taxi is much like the Dreamcast version, with the extra city, time modes, and Crazy Box.

Splatterhouse Review

Namco should've left this series back in the '90s.

Back in 1988, Namco both developed and produced the sidescrolling beat ‘em up horror title, Splatterhouse. The game was considered so violent at the time that a special parental advisory warning was slapped on the packaging, even though the game had been drastically toned down for Western audiences. Recently Namco Bandai has resurrected the series, reimagining the once controversial title for modern gamers. Unfortunately, the end result is nothing more than a bland, mindless beat ‘em up riddled with issues that no amount of gore or nostalgia could compensate for.

Enslaved: Pigsy's Perfect 10 Review

Pigsy needs to join a gym.

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is something that will stick with me for a long time – it’s one of those amazing games that went past the sometimes gltichy gameplay, delivering to the player a story full of emotion and drama. The main protagonists, Monkey and Trip, each performed with such depth and character that you could easily imagine them being real people; well, real people in a post-apocalyptic future full of murdering robots.
