My childhood feels violated a bit… I mean you have all my Mortal Kombat characters doing things like thrusting hips, stripper dancing, and freaking innocent bystanders…I don’t know.. I can’t even… I mean, I… sigh  (or should I say PSY) this is just too much. If you think you’ve heard PSY’s Gangnam Style just a million times too much, you may want to prep yourself for one more time because this is worth it… Btw…... 

Here is the list of Wii U’s titles to come as of March 2013. Pretty exciting stuff and the good thing is (and many of you will kill me for saying this) but I don’t see a whole bunch of Mario titles. NBA 2K13 Jeft Tailfin Madden NFL 13 EA Sports FIFA Soccer 13 Mass Effect 3 Toki Tori 2 Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate ZombiU Just Dance 4 Avengers: Battle for Earth Rabbids Land Assassin’s Creed 3 Rayman Legends Sports... 

Not since Dance Dance Revolution has there been a dancing game that has kicked this much ass.  Dance Central is one of the reasons many Xbox 360 owners purchased a Kinect.  For me it’s the only reason. The concept of Dance Central is simple.  Pick a song and copy the moves of the character on screen.  Sound simple?  It is!  With the Kinect there’s no need for a controller so anyone can play this game, from gamers to non... 

Every once in a while an unknown game goes unnoticed but turns out to be such a true gem. Slap Happy Rhythm Busters was one such title that has come and gone, left on the dusty shelves of the past. SHRB was a cel-shaded polygonal fighter on a 2D plane. Yeah yeah we’ve all seen that, but what made this game unique is the fact that there was a rhythmical element to the game where you type out your combos in a rhythm. At first glance... 

She vogues like a dancer, curses like a sailor and fights like a demon, yet Bayonetta is far from the slutty stereotype you assume when you see her pictures or videos. Gamers like me who have played through the game and continue to play it will tell you that she is more like the working stripper, if said stripper was Zoe Bell, Gina Carano or any other woman that can  kick your nerdy ass any time of the day. While many will be intimidated... 

Shinzo recently let me get a copy of his Bust a Move soundtrack (Bust a Groove in the US) and it sent me into a serious spiral of reminiscing. Is it just me or has the market for rhythm games been gang raped into oblivion by now? Being a seasoned fake guitarist from the first Guitar Hero all the way up to the newest one, I cannot be surprised or excited with any other band who decides to jump on the bandwagon. No matter what is... 

With the abundance of music games out there in the market it’s hard to swallow another one. Even worse is the amount of expensive plastic peripherals you  have to invest in to play them. For myself, I happen to enjoy the music game genre based on my music background. Folks I have to say it’s time to open wide and eat up DJ Hero!! This game is absolutely sick.  Read More →
