Review: Bullet Witch

Not every game we review can be a solid piece of art. Sometimes we're stuck reviewing a game like Bullet Witch, a depressingly bad Xbox 360 game that doesn't do anything new or noteworthy. Bullet Wi...

Review: Crackdown

Crackdown is easily Microsoft's biggest game this season, but is it really enough to tide you over until the big guns hit? Cyril delves into Pacific City to see what he can do and finds that whi...

Review: Worms

One of the greatest party games of all time is finally available on the Xbox Live Arcade, and not a moment too soon. Worms is an all-out battle between teams of heavily armed bloodthirsty worms. Bes...

Review: Shadow of the Beast

It's hard to believe that there once was a time when Shadow of the Beast was heralded as one of the greatest looking games of all time. But it's true, and the game was a force to be reckoned with whe...

Review: Karous

Talk about a fitting end to the Dreamcast, Karous feels like a video game funeral ... only in a good way. This 2D shooter may not look that different from all the other similar games on the system, b...

Review: Kung Food

Kung Food is easily one of the most creative brawlers I have ever seen, it's full of original ideas and has a real goofy sense of humor. One could argue that you're still just punching and kicking, b...

Review: Steel Talons

It's funny how many times John brings up Hard Drivin', if I was going to compare a "good" game with anything I probably wouldn't have mentioned that sluggish piece of garbage. But John seems content ...

Review: Castlevania: Symphony of the Night

For everybody who has complained about an Xbox Live Arcade drought, March has definitely made up for it. Take Castlevania: Symphony of the Night as an example, this is one of the greatest action/adve...

Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

I don't know what's more shocking, the fact that Ubisoft and Konami came together to give us something we've always wanted, or the fact that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game is 18 years old. I d...

Review: Time Stalkers

It's just a rule of thumb, first generation role-playing games are bound to suck. It's across the board, the PlayStation had Beyond the Beyond, the Xbox was plagued by Nightcaster, and the Dreamcast ...

Review: Dracula: The Undead

Forget the fight between ninjas and pirates, the real video game winner seems to be vampires. Every console ever released had at least one vampire game, and most of them were pretty good. Heck, vamp...

Review: Trigger Heart Excelica

This is not the last game for the Sega Dreamcast. But now that Sega has stopped making GDs and few companies are actually supporting the 8 year old system, it seems like the writing is on the wall. ...

Review: Metal Slug Anthology

SNK returns with one of the best PSP compilations available. The Metal Slug Anthology offers seven amazing 2D action games, which translates to dozens of cool levels and thousands of crazy enemies to...

Review: The Warriors

Although it's a port of a two year old PlayStation 2 game, The Warriors proved to be just as much fun on the PSP. And best of all, you won't be paying an arm and a leg to go through this game based o...

Review: Mars Matrix

Is this a remake of Giga Wing? Nope, but I don't blame you for thinking it is. This game looks and feels almost exactly like that other 2D shooter for the Dreamcast. But look closer because Ma...

Review: Dirty Larry: Renegade Cop

What happens when you can't secure the rights to a famous Clint Eastwood movie? You simply change one of the letters and give it a sense of humor. This is Dirty Larry, a game that has absolutel...

Review: Outtrigger

Despite a few noble efforts, the first-person shooter genre didn't have a lot of hits on the Sega Dreamcast. It wasn't for a lack of trying, but the control just didn't lend itself well to that kind ...
