Leave it up to Nintendo and their long-time developer Retro studios to create a title long overdue for a return to the store shelves. Donkey Kong, the Video Game Genre’s version of the “Bad-Guy-Gone-Good” stereotype, is bouncing around your Wii console like a striped Tigger after quickly drinking a case of Red Bull energy drinks. Nintendo is known for not letting go of characters... 

It’s been a while since the digital gaming world has seen the likes of the most recognizable mouse in history, who returns to the Wii just in time for the holidays. Disney’s Epic Mickey takes an interactive story from the 1930′s era cartoon world and creates an RPG-Mario 64 style crossover game that kids will keep playing for hours; a game that will remind adults about the first time... 

There comes a definitive time in one’s life where you realize the obvious. In this case, I realized each new technological advancement comes not because of the system itself, instead because of what applications run on the system. Quick examples are: Lotus 1-2-3 on the IBM XT computer, PacMan for the Atari 2600, Super Mario Brothers for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Sonic the Hedgehog for... 

Let’s get some things out in the open first: I don’t care who developed it I don’t care who published it I don’t care who plays it I don’t care the history of the franchise With all the past drama out-of-the-way, let me start off by saying this next: This is the best Call of Duty game ever created. Yes, better than Modern Warfare 2, better than World at War, better than... 

Picture it: Christmas time in 1998. Thousands of hyperactive kids viciously ripping the wrapping paper off their first glimpse at one of the worst video game systems to roll of the tables of Nintendo since the Virtual Boy. The Nintendo 64 happened to be the hottest game system in 1997 and 1998, and if you ask anyone who lived during those unfortunate times, there is only one reason: GoldenEye. Curiously,... 

Dante’s Inferno is a game that is filled with endless possibilities of mind numbing terror and horror, having the divine ability to take place in the maligned rings of Hell. Sadly, even the two powerhouses behind this game: EA and Visceral, failed to go as far into the uniqueness as they could have gone. The storyline is similar to the actual 14th century writing of the same moniker, following... 

First things first: I am in no way a “Trekkie,” and I can count on one finger how many Star Trek movies I’ve seen. Granted, that one movie was J.J. Abrams rendition of the classic franchise, but it was that movie that made me agree to even attempt to play this game. A really good friend of mine, we’ll call him “Bill” (since that’s his name), is the complete... 

“You can’t change what’s meant to be natural, it just ain’t right!” I’m not an expert on horror stories by any means. Sure, I could watch the funny Nightmare on Elm Street and Child’s Play movies and laugh at the ridiculousness that are campy movies, but the ones that *might* have truth to them bother me. I believe that it comes from the fact that when I watch... 

The opening scenes of The Book of Eli tell the story quite well and fill the viewers mind with what is about to come: the dirty and dusty landscapes where survivors scavenge the garbage for anything remotely useable or tradable and where law simply doesn’t exist. Sounds similar to other “post-apocalypse” storylines already used, right? Of course it is. I personally had to go back and... 

Most people I’ve talked to typically don’t read the first few paragraphs of reviews because the author seems compelled to write about their feelings and how they got to this stage in life and all that other nonsense. And since I’m no different then anyone else, I’m going to write about what I feel in the first two paragraphs as well. Now that the first paragraph was brilliantly...
