Animates!
Sep 29, 2007
Raising an animal requires a fair amount of patience. This couldn’t be any more true for Animates, a pet simulator that’ll tax your tolerance for boredom like no other game before it.

Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon
Sep 26, 2007
Harvest Moon is a terrible series. Monotony isn’t supposed to be so addictive, but you’ll put 20 hours into one of these games before you start to question whether or not you are accomplishing anything and another 10 hours to reach a point where no more progress can really be made. Oh, and Rune Factory [...]

Jump Ultimate Stars (Import)
Aug 1, 2007
There are import games that can be enjoyed by just guessing which menu option is Play, for once you actually start playing, knowing Japanese becomes a moot point.

Resident Evil: Deadly Silence
Jul 25, 2007
With Resident Evil DS, Capcom has essentially taken the Playstation original and squeezed it onto a smaller screen. While some polish has been sacrificed–character models are a bit jaggy–it’s an impressive feat to see this running on the DS. A live-action introduction and a good amount of voice acting (both incredibly cheesy, but still…) are [...]

Scurge: Hive
May 29, 2007
It’s hard to make a moody sci-fi adventure game without someone drawing parallels between it and the Metroid franchise, especially when the main character is an armor-clad, female bounty hunter. Jenosa and her story may be a rip-off, but Orbital Media has done enough to set this one apart and actually make Jenosa the cooler [...]
