Review / Tokyo Beat Down (DS) - (USA)
If there’s anything to be learned from Tokyo Beat Down , Success’ videogame love letter to the coin-gobbling, side-scrolling brawlers that once monopolized our youth, it’s that “fists can solve any problem.” Sure, games have evolved since the time of stand-alone arcades, but there’s still no greater pleasure than kicking and punching your way to a better and brighter tomorrow, the way only a badass cop who doesn’t play by the rules can. Such are the cops of Tokyo Beat Down , whose stealth-fr

Gamer Limit Review: Worms 2: Armageddon - (USA)
Readers, I have something to admit to you. It’s not easy, but I have never played a single Worms title. Of course, I remember the glory days of the two tanks blasting each other on my PC monitor at school, and to your certain dismay, the reboot of that classic has never graced my home desktop or my console. However, those days are over and I’m finally ready to open a can of Worms 2: Armageddon . So, hit the jump if you want to live. The crux of the gameplay is simple. Every game tak

Today’s Nintendo DLC: April 27 - (USA)
Nintendo continues to throw out the shovelware for American audiences, especially on the DSi which is becoming a repository for Nintendo DS solo minigames that you wouldn’t even spend 99 cents on for the iPhone. Case in point is Paper Airplane Chase , which resembles an arcade game circa 1983, but was the lonely coin-op that was chucked in the corner of the arcade that no one played. if you didn’t have enough vapid card games on your DS, well, you can download Clubhouse Games Express: Card Cl

It’s Official. I’m Old. - (USA)
I had a younger friend that told me about a predicament he encountered when he was stranded with a broken down vehicle and no cell phone. I asked “Couldn’t you find a pay phone?” I got a strange glance before he said “Pay phone? Do they still have those?” Even if he could’ve found a pay phone, he probably wouldn’t be able to use it. Nobody memorizes phone numbers anymore. They are all on the cell phone. I found myself telling stories about how I used to memorize phone numbers and use pay phones

Top 10 Worst Video Games of All Time - (USA)
Most video games are stupid, especially games made by Sega for some reason. If you’re wondering, yes we are still barking up that same old tree. Anyway I digress. Before I get back to the intro to this our latest and greatest list there are a number of things that need to be addressed. First we never received any Venn diagrams of our Top 10 Worst Fanboys list as requested so hurry up, the t-shirts are still available. Second nobody has offered us vast sums of money so we can sell out, so break

'Tron' Lightcycles And Glowing Discs In Today's eBay Prop-Watch - (USA)
Did you hear? The " Tron " sequel has a title! It's " Tron Legacy ." Good stuff, right? Better than "Tr2n," at any rate. Even if that number-letter fusion was the real title, I'd be psyched. "Tron" is one of my favorite Disney flicks, right up there with " Alice in Wonderland " and " Robin Hood ." It's definitely my favorite live-action Disney. Today's eBay Prop-Watch pick is not a prop, no sir. It's ten different kinds of awesome though, especially since you can actually play with the dar

There's no point of reference - is he standing or laying down? Just what is the textured gray substance anyway? Touch the s

Review: Deadly Creatures (Wii) - (USA)
In the First Thirty of Deadly Creatures , I was entranced by the setting and level design, but a little put off by the waggle. As it turns out, this is an accurate summary of the entire game. I finished the game this week, to the tune of over ten hours of killing beetles and dodging snakes… not to mention stinging Dennis Hopper in the crotch. There is nothing quite like Deadly Creatures on the Wii racks. For that reason alone, it’s worth a look. With all the barely-restrained flamboyance of a

Bunnies, coin-op laundry and Goodnight Moon - (USA)
Easter is a strange holiday. I celebrated it for the first time yesterday (Jewish guy, dating half-Jewish girl who looks like an Irish Catholic but isn't Catholic but might be Irish.). Was really holding out for the pig with an apple in its mouth for supper but had to settle for the turkey. Yeah, and they called it supper; perhaps a reference to The Last Supper. Fucking weird. I'm not really sure how bunnies and eggs got associated with this holiday. Bunnies don't lay eggs and you don't often h

Here are my raw session notes for Ian Bogost's GDX talk, Bone of My Bones and Flesh of My Flesh: The Genesis of Ms Pac-Man. This is my best attempt at a transcription of what he said. Any mistakes or misinterpretations are mine and mine alone. My comments are in square brackets. --- Platform studies: looking at the hardware systems that underlie software systems and how the hardware influences creativity.
