Everyone loves Castlevania, right? I’ll raise the question again; everyone loves Castlevania, right? Now, repeat that query for the past five GBA/DS incarnations of Castlevania. These titles are essentially portable Castlevania: Symphony of the Night’s, as they all manage to emulate the formula near flawlessly. Not only do they all play alike, look alike, sound [...]

Zelda fans are the hardest to please. Since Ocarina of Time, we expect every subsequent sequel to be just as good, if not infinitely better (which is probably impossible). Because of this, many fans found Majora’s Mask too strange and Wind Waker too cute. But I love about this series is how every Zelda is [...]

Let’s face it, the GameCube is good as dead. Twilight Princess might as well be a Wii exclusive, and Over the Hedge isn’t going to replace its absence here and now. So it would seem that Chibi-Robo is a pick up by default. Then again, it’s difficult to take anything seriously that has “chibi” in [...]

A lot of developers this generation have not taken big risks with their flagship franchises. When a game becomes a smash hit, no matter what it may be, the developer begins to be afraid of straying from that winning formula. Whether it’s EA with their sports titles, Capcom with Resident or Namco with Soul Calibur, [...]

Unlike Ubi Soft’s other game intended to be in a trilogy, we actually got our game to complete another. Beyond Good & Evil was rumored to be a one, but Prince of Persia was able to finish its off. It all started with The Sands of Time. It brought back the joys of platforming with [...]

Lego Star Wars has to be one of the most unique games to represent the popular series of George Lucas films. The game itself isn’t actually created by its studios, so that already provides great opportunity for it to be as different as it is. Taking on the stories of Episodes I – III, the [...]

The Castlevania franchise has been around since the NES generation. Fans of the series have played gems such as Simon’s Quest, Symphony of the Night and Circle of the Moon. Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow takes the popular series onto a somewhat different path, but still retains that great gothic atmosphere we’ve all come to know [...]

At first look, Phoenix Wright looks to be an incredibly boring court room game. How wrong we could possibly be for ever even thinking that. With a very intense influence from Japanese culture, the game brings a world of deception and punishment unlike we’ve ever seen before. If you have what it takes, you may [...]

To be quite honest, one of the main reasons I laid down $29 for my ticket to the Nintendo Fusion Tour was for my first great chance of getting my hands on the Twilight Princess demo. It was confirmed shortly before the Tour actually started that one of the main features of the Nintendo displays [...]

Trace Memory is a point-and-click adventure developed by Cing for the Nintendo DS. This unique effort plays to the DS’ innovative features and stylus play to create an interactive novel similar to other point-and-click adventures like Myst. The point-and-click adventure genre has really been disappearing, but perhaps with games like Trace Memory, more gamers will [...]
