A Review By jpublic in PC » Puzzle
For those of you who are Steam whores like me, and have the ability (of dubious value) to purchase under-$20 games without even flinching, you tend to discover life is pretty hit or miss with new releases on Steam. But every once in a while you hit a gem. At $10, The Wonderful End of The World, by Dejobaan Games may be one of those ge...

Mad Maestro! is a very fun rhythm game for PS2. Instead of having peppy techno pop music, however, it has classical music. Thirty-four classical songs, to be exact, and instead of playing a musical instrument, you conduct an orchestra. Mad Maestro! is a sweet game, and easy to get used for less than $5. Even in the current generation of gaming wi...

Solomons Key Any fan of my reviews will notice that the games I have featured are less known than more popular titles, despite being very good. Solomons key has got to be the least well-known- but still enjoyable title on the NES, perhaps even the VC. You are cast into the shoes of Dana, a hero bent on recovering Solomons Key t...

A Review By eYak in Nintendo DS » Puzzle
Every once in awhile, a game comes along that celebrates the core value of gaming: fun. Whether it has a cinematic plot, visceral gameplay, or makes you rack your brain trying to come up with a solution (without resorting to GameFAQs or the like) or not, a game can fall short of the one determining factor of its value. Professor Layton an...

Rock Band is a lot of fun. It's fun by yourself, with friends, with family, online, fun to watch. $160 or $170 is pretty steep, but it is definitely worth it. Over 60 songs on disc plus new downloadable content every week ensures there will always be more to do on Rock Band. This review is based on the PS3 version. Solo Tour If you've ...

A Review By Tabasco in Wii » Puzzle
I would like to start this review by stating that I am very much a "party gamer." I bring my Wii with me to parties and actively get people involved in playing it. With that in mind, I must say that WW:SM has been the biggest hit at parties. It is a very easy game to get into, it has a quirky sense of humor, and many people can play...
