Rated: Star Wars Pinball – Wii U Edition

Earlier this year, Zen Studios released three of their Star Wars themed tables for their incredible Zen Pinball game for PSN and XBLA.  Now Nintendo fans can get in on the action, as this week sees the release of those Star Wars tables on the Wii U system.  Zen Studios was kind enough to let us get our hands on the game early in order to tell you whether or not it’s worth picking up from the Wii U’s eShop.

Remember Me Is Actually Rather Awesome

Remember Me was a surprise title for me when it was announced. We all knew this generation was coming to an end, yet we saw awesome games like The Last of Us and Remember Me get announced. Each game looked amazing in their own way, but Remember Me had everything I love, fantasy, technology, an amazing world with a vibrant unique story. Besides The Last of Us, it was one of my most anticipated titles, and so far its delivering for sure.

 

Vita’s Killzone: Hands on With Mercenary

The Vita seems to be getting a huge push from Sony by supporting all PS4 titles via remote play, but the device itself is still getting plenty of support of its own. At E3 there were a ton of great games to play and one of them was Killzone: Mercenary. Since the franchise’s next console iteration (Shadow Fall) is being hyped up for the PS4, I had to get my hands on the Vita version of it.

Bioshock Infinite Review: Solid but not Quite Revolutionary

The highly anticipated Bioshock Infinite hit stores finally last week to generally positive reviews.  Does the game live up to the hype as well as the legacy of its predecessor?  It's definitely worth playing through, but it's not quite as revolutionary as most reviews would suggest.  Come inside to check out our thoughts on Irrational Games' latest.

Metal Gear Rising Review: Not Your Daddy’s Metal Gear Game

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is a radical departure from previous games that have held the Metal Gear moniker in terms of gameplay.  Is it too much of a difference for gamers to enjoy?  Will people new to the franchise have a lesser experience?  After having played through the game (a couple times now) I’m here to hopefully answer those questions and help you decide whether or not it’s worth picking up (if you’re still unsure about it). 

PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale: The Game We Have Been Waiting For

I have always loved Super Smash Bros. and it’s the one game that has always made me miss having a Nintendo console. However I have always loved the idea of Sony doing something similar. So many characters to choose from, so many ideas, and it’s finally here! The two games are not the same at their core. Is the idea the same? Sure, but anyone that gives both games a shot will quickly learn they are two very different experiences. Which is a good thing, we get to see a very awesome game with very creative ideas. At its core, PlayStation All-Stars is a stellar fighting game about some of the most iconic characters in the industry.
