I promised last post to talk a little about CSI: Dark Motives for the DS and what exactly I do. There’s a bit of a balancing act to be maintained here, as on one hand I need to not step on any of the NDAs that rule my life, and on the other [...]
Two short but sweet games for you this week. They’re from rather disparate genres, slapped together here due to their ever-so-sleight simularities to other games that are important to me at the moment.
First is Super Serif Brothers, which is exactly like Super Mario Bros. if there were only one of them and he were [...]
First thing, right out of the box? Nobody does it like Nintendo. No other developer makes games that show such graceful understanding of how a game should play, from the way the controls just melt into your hands to the complex actions they coax out of running, jumping, and spinning.

If you’re the sort who swings through the downloadable games portion of Nickelodeon’s web site from time to time, you might notice that SpongeBob’s Atlantis Squarepantis SquareOff is now available for download.

Speaking of Team Fortress 2 (as I haven’t been, with the exception of a link in last night’s Halo 3 ramble), in addition to being probably the best contender for multiplayer game of the year developer Valve has come up with some of the smartest advertising for the game I’ve seen in a long, long [...]
In the midst of getting all excited over the latest digital wonders taking up both shelf and pocket space last post, I completely forgot to mention all the card and board games I’ve played lately. Card games in particular have completely taken over work, as all three of our in-house projects are more or [...]
Coming down from Bioshock (about which there’s still a good bit to say, provided I ever get around to it), I’m starting to remember that there are, in fact, other games out there what need playing. Not only that, but as Fall creeps up on us and the summer drought of top flight titles [...]
Finished. Thoughts and spoilers below.
A much smaller entry this time on a no less wonderful moment found in the game. More after the jump.
