Titan Attacks! is the story of how one man can make a difference, even in difficult times. Especially in difficult times, even. As Earth’s last tank commander, you must single handedly defeat the entire alien force as you fight across the solar system. Numerous tank upgrades, power-ups, boss battles, challenges, and a wide variety of enemies keep the game interesting throughout its hundred levels and five worlds. Retro-styled graphics maintain the atmosphere of the...
Jackie, Jackie, Jackie. This guy just doesn’t have the best luck or any luck for that matter. Rough life growing up, had to turn to being a hitman in order to make a living, then the one thing he cares about in his life, the one person who he loves, gets executed in front of him. The Darkness, it forces him to watch. Oops, spoilers from the first game! Oh well, your bad for reading the review of Darkness 2 before playing the first game. Yep, he watches his girlfriend...
Every once in a while a developer says, “Screw it.” Where they decide to create something that they want to see happen. Double Fine Happy Action Theater is one of these moments. DFHAT took a special level of “Screw it” and I’m definitley pleased with the final product. DFHAT is a Kinect game that turns your room into the game space or takes you and places you in the game. 18 stages of some of the most random ideas you could place into a video...
Intelligent extraterrestrial life exists, and it’s all trying to kill you. Defend humanity’s planets and installations with deadly satellites, and teach the alien scum not to mess with Earth. Unstoppable Gorg takes the tried and true tower defense formula and adds some unique twists. Tower build slots are arranged in orbits around a central point the player must defend, while hostile alien ships approach on multiple winding paths (conveniently marked with dotted...
I remember sitting down as a young lad and playing Choplifter with my sister on our Sega Master System (My dad didn’t want to buy us the NES, but that’s another story entirely.) Although, maybe too difficult for us at the time, we had some fun with it. So, when Choplifter HD was announced I immediately thought, “Gotta review that.” So here we are, is it just as fun? How great are the graphics? And is it still ridiculously hard? Answers, yes, eh and...
AMY is a survival horror game set in a future not too distant from our own. You are a caretaker of a “verbally challenged” girl named Amy. All seems well until a explosion causes the zombie apocalypse. You wake up to find that you are infected with the zombie virus and that being near Amy somehow seems to heal you of the sickness. Thus begins your journey into the wildly mixed bag that is AMY. On the surface AMY at least looks like an amazing game. Being that this game...
Zulrog and his henchmen have kidnapped your beloved. You have to find her, rescuing her from Zulrog’s secret and heavily defended base. Sound familiar? It should. Surprisingly though Zack Zero, developed by Crocodile Entertainment, isn’t as ordinary as it sounds. Essentially, Zack Zero is a 2D platformer set in a 3D environment. Instead of simply scrolling side to side, Zack Zero guides you along a set path set in a 3D environment… sort of. ...
First of all, I’d like to let you, the reader, know that I review this game from a kid’s point of view. It’s obviously a child’s game and don’t want to judge it for being anything but. Now with that being said, on to the review. Alvin and The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked involves you following the dance moves of the Chipmunks on the screen as well as singing along the song you have chosen. The dance are very simple to follow, allowing even some of the...
Atomic Aliens was a game I originally laughed at. It’s unpolished, it’s childish, and its over-the-top description led me to think it would be a total waste of both my time and a dollar. Boy was I wrong. Atomic Aliens is the first title from indie developer studio Touch Junky for iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad. It’s a game set in the year 3012, a thousand years in the future where Atomic Aliens are attempting to destroy the universe. This all sounds fine and dandy, but...
This latest iteration, being from the PS1 era, remains my favourite version because nearly every single aspect has been modernized and beautified.
