Apples to Apples (board game by Mattel)
My family got this board game a very long time ago, and we still play it at every gathering today. It’s a really fun little game of comparisons - I’d say kids as young as 9 could probably handle it.
The rules are simple: there are “green-apple-cards” with adjectives on …
Call of Duty: World at War
This game is an OUTRAGE. I was one of the people who received a beta code for this game to try it out before it was released to the public to be purchased. I have to say, I really enjoyed the beta a lot. It fixed a lot of …
FIFA2006 EA sports game
this game is for the true soccer lover.And i am not going overboard.EA sports has managed to improve the game fifa every year ever since it was created and now it seems liek they have finally hit the nail on the coffin.The problem is that Fifa05,the last edition of …
The Sims 3
I have been playing The Sims series since the original came out quite a while back. Moving up to the second was a major upgrade that kept me entertained for years. The Sims 3 was no different, although it was not as much of an improvement as before.
The Sims …
FIFA 07 game
This game when first played might seem a bit tricky. But as usual what you need to do is put it in beginner mode and play a two star team or less whilst you being Brazil or Manchester United. The visuals and details of this game is incredible, makes you …
Ninety Nine Nights 2 Game
The main narrative of the game follows the journey of Galen, who wishes to meet up and do battle with the Lord of the Night. At first, Ninety-Nine Nights II is very vague about how it presents the protagonist’s motivations. But as the game progresses, things begin …
GNU Chess 3.1 Windows Game
As a once avid chess player, who really had a whole lot of potential (as suggested by how far I went in national tournaments) GNU Chess for Windows always made for a great opponent when nobody else was around to have a game with me.
Other than the 24-hour-a-day availability, …
Burnout Revenge for PS2
This is one of the best racing games ever. The graphics are amazing. The speed, the cars, the tracks, and the challenges are all great. This game is definitely for people who love to see real damage done in car games. There are plenty of …
Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga for GBA
Every now and then comes along a game that no one expects. A game that’s just strange in every aspect of the word. This is one of those games. The first handheld RPG to feature Mario and Luigi, who at last gets equal billing with is brother, this game …
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (PS3)
I have to admit, I didn’t want to play the game. Every time I saw a commercial or ad for the game I thought that they were overselling the game and people will be expecting too much from it ; I was wrong.
Skyrim is a very deep and …
Cashflow Board Game
When playing Cashflow, you will get a board game experience like no other. It’s a one of a kind product. So, in general, it’s a board game based on the financial life of most people. We are all stuck in this ongoing circle called the “rat race,” and many …
CARD GAME GO FISH
The hardest part about picking games out for small children, is that, as a teacher, I believe the game should be totally a game of luck, not talent! It is just too hard to keep beating a child in a game, again and again, because you are older and …
Too Human (xbox 360)
Too human for the Xbox 360 gaming system is a great action RPG but it eventually becomes pretty repetitive once you get adjusted to the ai and game play. The game is part 1 of 3 other future games that will be released you play as Baldur who …
Resistance 2 (PS3)
I bought the Asian version of this game or Region 3 for RM 195, which is around USD$ 55.70. I bought it 1 day after the R3 version got released. That means by the time I got this game, I have read almost all the available reviews on the …
Zoop (Nintendo Game Boy)
Zoop is a puzzle-type video game for the Nintendo Game Boy. How the video game is played is pretty simple: the player controls what appears to be a pencil. The pencil is positioned within a box with dots located in the center of the screen. The pencil moves along …
Cafe World on Facebook
When I finally joined Facebook, I was really hooked with the games. And one of the games that I really love was CafĂ© World. The sound effects and music reminds me so much of The Sims 2, which is my all-time favorite game. I guess what really caught my …
Capcom Arcade Collection vol. 1 for Playstation 2
Capcom is just awesome. Their games have always been pretty high-quality, even if they do milk some of their franchises a little too much. However, they’ve been making quality games since they were nothing but a simple Arcade cabinet company, and this collection shows their best.
Collection: 8/10
Instead of giving …
Smart Girl’s Playhouse
My daughter is four. And, when she sees me or my wife playing a video game on our Nintendo Wii or DS, she wants to be able to play too.
The problem we’ve had with this is you really can’t find a lot of games out there that are geared …
Game : Tommy Tronic (PC)
Wow!! I didn’t realize just how many 2d platform games had been released for the PC over the last few years until i started seeking them out particularly. Since i started finding them i have played a fair few but Tommy Tronic may well be one of the best …
Dead Space 3 Game
I somewhat understand the decision of Visceral to emphasize on the action elements in Dead Space 3. However, the tricks by which they can scare the audience are not unlimited. After the 10th time, the breaking of a pipe and the discharge of steam before your eyes starts to …
Sly Cooper and the Thevius Raccoonus for PS2
It seems that games nowadays love to give us a chance to experience the feeling of both being good and evil, but what about a game that makes a hero out of something that is usually despised? That is what Suckerpunch studios created when they made Sly Cooper and …

FIFA 09 PC
As soon as this game was released,I rushed to the store to buy one.
I had seen a lot of promos done one the game,with most of them being shown on the banners in the English Premier League matches.
The gameplay is far easier compared to the previous version FIFA 08.

Gran Turismo 4 Ps2 Game
One of our most favorite Playstation2 game is the Gran Turismo 4. It is the most outstanding car racing game that we played so far. The concept was just about car racing without any story involved. It has only a career mode wherein you would race to different tracks …
Klonoa Playstation Game
This is a review for Klonoa, a Sony Playstation game.
This game is one of my all time favourites. It is about a cat called Klonoa, who has to get back a pendant that was stolen from him. I loved this game as a child, and I still love it …
Fallout: New Vegas collectors edition
The fallout franchise has been around for many years now, with the recent addition of the fourth installment in the series, Fallout: New Vegas.

Barn Buddy: FaceBook Game
Barn Buddy is one of the FaceBook games about farming, and planting, with player abilities to steal, add/remove weeds and/or bugs to other players (our friends) plants, just like the other similar games.
But, I like Barn Buddy more than any other similar game, such as Farm Ville, Happy …
Tribond
My wife and I love playing board games together and, because it looked interesting, we bought Tribond.
What I found was, while somewhat entertaining, Tribond just isn’t as good as the other board games we own.
The concept makes it seem like a good game. You list off three objects and …

Outlast, PC Game [Spoiler Free]
So, I will try to keep this review as spoiler free as I possibly can.
I recently played an absolutely terrifying horror game called Outlast for the PC and PlayStation 4 that I can quite easily say was one of the most horrifying experiences I’ve endured in a long while, at …
Cobra Command for NES
Cobra Command is a terrible game no one should play. The music is average, graphics are average, sound effects are average, and it’s overall a very mind-numbing game. You’re the pilot of a helicopter who must shoot down other helicopters, and destroy tanks, people, and anti-aircraft guns, while rescuing …
Fruit Ninja iPhone app
There are thousands of games in the Apple app store to choose from, and new ones are coming out each and every day. After exploring many of these options, I have discovered a gem that must be tried out by everyone with the option to do so. Whether you …
Neverwinter Nights
A few days ago I wrote about some games for the first time. I feel ashamed that I forgot to write about one of my favorite games of all time. Neverwinter Nights is an R.P.G (Role-Playing Game) based on the the D&D (Dungeons & Dragons) formulas, and it has …
Uncharted:Drake’s Fortune

PS3
The Playstation 3 is a great system. The graphics are really great and so are the games. I only have one game now because thats pretty much all I could afford after I bought the system. It would also look a lot better with an HD …
Dungeons and Dragons Essentials Monster Vault
Heroes are defined by their villains. That old adage holds true in role playing games just as much as it does in any other story telling medium. While Dungeon/Game Masters can (and have) run campaigns that are light on combat to put greater focus on the role playing …
Shenkuu Warrior
This is another one of the newer additions to the list of Neopets games and it sure is a fun one. The idea is that you are a Shenkuu princess trying to become a warrior. Your task is to climb up a mountain using a grappling hook …
Sniper: Ghost Warrior PC game
Sniper:Ghost Warrior is a budget PC game. It is also available on Xbox 360 and normally retails for around 30-40 dollars (AUD). Despite its small budget, Sniper: Ghost Warrior was not a bad buy and it is quite good for the price you pay for it.

Little Leaps Grow With Me Gaming System
Last Christmas season I purchased the Little Leaps Grow With Me Gaming System for my two year old. I would love to tell you the details of this product but I can’t, because one year later, I still have not gotten it to work! The directions say to use …
AeroGauge
I thought this game was going to be like F-Zero X since it was billed as a futuristic racer, but it is not. The courses could basically be driven on by regular cars as these tracks do not offer any sort of wild or clever stunts or twists. Sure, …

RPG Maker

Just as the name implies, this “game” allows you to be creative and create your own games. Although there is a limit of what things you can use, there are lots of things to do. All you really need is at least one memory card …
Lego Star Wars, The Original Trilogy - PSP
Remember Lego from when you were kids? Yeah, sure you do. I certainly do. Of course, its all moved on now, with motors and batteries and real working lego guns, but the principles still the same: 1. Grab block, 2. Build.
LEGO have now moved this into …

Gun : Xbox 360
This “Gun” game for Xbox 360 was marketed as a old western tale of revege and I thought it would be a very fun game to play and so I decided to buy this game. You are basically a cowboy that runs missions and kills others on behalf of …
Gallop Racer 2004
Before I bought Gallop Racer, I thought that horse racing games would be so much fun. I had seen what the back looked like, and it made me want to be a jockey all over again. Too bad I am over a half a foot too tall, and would …
Brain Trainer
Brain Trainer is a mobile java game that basically tests your knowledge of maths. I have found this game quite good to play as there are interesting questions such as you have to add and take away numbers in a time limit. The game can tell you what your …
Neverwinter Nights 2
The D&D 3.5 edition system provides a solid basis on which to build a game, unfortunately what could be a truly excellent experience is compromised by extremely sloppy design. Not design of the game, but the program itself. Require huge amounts of free harddrive space even to load, the …
