Placing multiple popular games on one single cartridge, the Super Nintendo Campus Challenge cartridge was created for promotional competitions all over the world.

I love the idea of the new Syndicate game and I love the original Syndicate, but I’m still too hard-headed to accept the fact that the two will coexist as one, very new sort of game. But playing it earlier this year and now diving deep into the game’s tech and toys, I’m starting to…
Drawing on familiar media representations and cultural histories for the sake of building a female gangster actually seems pretty difficult.

Ever since Team Ninja’s been in charge of the modern-day Ninja Gaiden franchise, no character kills bad guys quite the way that Ryu Hayabusa does.

The backwards-flying dragon killing and magic-resistance fixing Skyrim 1.3 patch is now live on the Xbox 360, according to Bethesda’s official The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Twitter account. Go get it and then marvel at the lack of reverse dragons.
Very few games are as iconic as Grand Theft Auto III, and it’s recent release to iOS devices does not tarnish its reputation whatsoever. I played the game on an iPad 1 this morning. I found the controls far more intuitive than I could have hoped for. The game is still a full experience, and…
Unlike a game of Dungeons & Dragons, your life doesn’t only occur in poorly lit, secluded areas. Behold the new Samsung Galaxy S II with giant, Super AMOLED Plus screen (making it visible in full sunlight, thin silhouette, and dual-core processor.

Starrcaft player/modder Kenneth Tran’s built an homage to Episode V of George Lucas’s space fantasy films, substituting planet Braxis for the icy world of Hoth where The Empire Strikes Back took place. On The Dominion Strikes Back, the Rebel faction…
Am I the only person who thinks Metal Gear Rising looked cooler than Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance? Also, I am pretty sure revengeance isn’t a real word, and honestly, I think they should just do a cross over with Fruit Ninja and call it a day. I’m going to go write a strongly worded letter…
Look at the letters in the image above. Can you spell a word by tracing a line through them? If so, congratulations, you’d be good at SpellTower. SpellTower is a stack if letters that can each disappear if you thread them into words. SpellTower is an iOS game that, in its best mode, keeps shoving…
