NHL 2K3

Sega’s NHL 2K series began on their very own first party console system the Dreamcast with NHL 2K and has been in development ever since. Such games as ESPN NHL Hockey, NHL 2K2 and NHL 2K3 have arisen since then, and the series has continued to evolve to this day. Unfortunately the series will be [...]

Geist

Earlier this afternoon, I had the opportunity to play a demo of the upcoming FPS from n-Space and Nintendo in Geist! It happened to be one of the featured games on a demo collection disk for a GameCube at my local Game Crazy, and I was stoked to see it! I’ve been wanting this game [...]

Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg

Anyone who bought a GameCube knows that there aren’t very many [good] games to pick from. While just about every first-party game is a success, there is little third-party support to justify buying a GameCube over a PS2 or Xbox. This is why I was so excited to see the release of Billy Hatcher and [...]

Legos were an integral part of growing up, and it’s uncommon to hear the name Lego and not think about building cars. The original Lego Racers video game really brought this idea to life, letting you create your block-style cars and race them through Lego-inspired worlds. Now, we’ve progressed past this and moved onto the [...]

Freaky Flyers

Kart racers, the lofty racing games with lots of weapons. You probably already own at least one. But what you might not own is a kart racer that replaces the karts with airplanes. Sure, this idea was tried with Diddy Kong Racing, but — and correct me if I’m wrong — a strictly aviation game [...]

Tak and the Power of JuJu

What happens when you try to make a platform/adventure game geared towards kids? The same thing that happens with every platform/adventure game geared towards kids. It ends up being too simple and yet surprisingly frustrating at the same time. I don’t understand how that can be, but it’s a trend I’m getting mighty sick of. [...]

The Simpsons: Hit & Run

The Simpsons license has been involved in videogames practically ever since the industry was created. Some have been of decent quality, but most have been rather subpar unfortunately. However, with the most recent game in the franchise, Simpsons Hit & Run, the license finally has something to be proud of. Hit & Run (referred to [...]

Spartan: Total Warrior

There have been numerous attempts in this generation and past generations to create games that allowed you to feel like you were really a part of those “big battles.” The best attempts can be easily seen in games like the Dynasty Warrior series or even others like Drakengard. The makers of the well-received PC game [...]
