Let’s Talk About Medal of Honor

Danger Close’s reboot of the Medal of Honor series stirred up quite a bit of controversy because of its momentary inclusion of playable Taliban in the game’s multiplayer. But that has nothing to do with the game’s quality. I suspect that most of us don’t weigh the morality of a developer’s design choices when deciding…

Review: Wii Party

This ain’t Mario Party, it’s Wii Party. Nintendo’s latest effort at a party game once again features mini-games. Did someone say “mini-games”? Wii Party sports over 80 mini-games and features Miis as the in-game characters. The Japanese version of the game — which I played — has 14 game modes, while the U.S. version has…

Kinect Does Not Need This, No Sir It Does Not

Xenosaga Action Figure Comes Out Guns Blazing

Couldn’t scrape together $550 for that sweet KOS-MOS statue, Xenosaga fans? Maybe this $50 figure is more to your liking. It’s a Figma figure, meaning that unlike the statue it’s got joints and lines everywhere. Those joints and lines are there for a reason, though, as it’s highly posable, the inclusion of a stand meaning…

A Visual Guide To Wii Party

Balance Ship was one of the standout mini-games in Wii Party. Hiding a Wii-Remote might seem gimmicky, and it might actually be. But I don’t care, it’s fun. This type of game is probably familiar to those who have played the Mario Party games. Match-Up is a classic matching game with a Mii spin. http://youtu.be/2XApWiHUuu…
