The last two games in the Need For Speed franchise have been something truly “unique” to put it nicely. Named Need For Speed: Underground and Need For Speed: Underground 2 respectively, EA chose to stray from the NFS gameplay norms in delivering something to really appeal to the mainstream. Without a doubt, movies like Fast [...]

Ridge Racer DS is more or less an expanded port of Ridge Racer 64 for the Nintendo 64. It takes the same basic gameplay elements, tracks and car model designs and has them more fine tuned in certain aspects. It’s one of two racing games for the Nintendo DS, along with Asphalt Urban GT. Both [...]

Nintendo gaming enthusiasts around the world, START YOUR ENGINES! Why do I say around the world you ask? Well that’s because it will indeed be that way come November 7 of this year! Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection will finally be going online around this time, and Mario Kart DS will be one of the very first [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

1080 Snowboarding on the Nintendo 64 was the quintessential snowboarding game. It seems only fair that Nintendo would want to recapture the throne, considering games like SSX 3 are now vying for best snowboarder. Avalanche was received with a lot of disappointment, however. While the game does fall a bit short of expectations, it shouldn’t [...]

Back in the days of the Nintendo 64, some of my favorite games revolved around car combat: Vigilante 8 and San Francisco Rush 2049. Now that the 64 has been replaced with the GameCube, this once beloved genre has almost disappeared. Mario Kart and Smuggler’s Run have a taste of car combat to them, but [...]

Whether it be building a city or making people clean up after themselves, simulation games can be a lot of fun. Not every aspect of human life needs to be made into a video game, however. Super Dishwasher and The Library Game should certainly stay away from virtual reality. What about being the stuntman for [...]

Pokémon has been a very popular franchise for some time now. We’ve seen Pokémon games for all Nintendo systems since it has been released and nearly all of them sold in the millions of copies worldwide. It is Pokémon that boosted the GameBoy’s sales worldwide and so it was just normal for Nintendo to bring [...]
