Get to the Fallout Shelter: A Preview of 60 Seconds for Nintendo Switch
Long ago, in a galaxy not so far away (the United States), people thought that the atomic bomb would drop on them at any second. So some of those people built fallout shelters. This is something that really happened. However, the bomb never dropped in the U.S. In the video game 60 Seconds for the Nintendo Switch though, the atomic bomb will hit in…you guessed it…60 Seconds. And so as the head of the household its your duty to grab…
Read MoreXbox One X Coverage: ARK: Survival Evolved Looks Fantastic
I've been a long-time fan of ARK: Survival Evolved, and when Xbox released users statistics for 2017, it was no surprise to me that ARK was my most played game this year. The big draw to me for ARK is the gameplay, being able to jump into a game with friends, building crazy structures, taming a legion of dinosaurs, and exploring a huge open world is more important to me than graphical superiority. For the longest time - especially when the game was still in early access - it didn't look great, and at times, it handled even worse. Over this weekend I loaded up ...
Read MoreNew Far Cry 5 Trailer: The Resistance
Far Cry 5 is Ubisoft's next highly anticipated title in the Far Cry series, and this time around, the developers are tagging America as its playground for some crazy, over the top mayhem. The early looks and videos of Far Cry have been spectacular, detailing a bit of the back story - a religious cult attempting to take over America - as well as some of the gameplay, which surprisingly includes fishing. Today, Ubisoft released yet another trailer for the game title, "The Resistance."
Read MoreFirst Impressions – BlackBerry Motion Smart Phone
A box arrived from BlackBerry Canada yesterday, and I wasn't entirely sure what to expect of the contents. I knew the BlackBerry Motion and the BlackBerry KEYone were launched in 2017, and that BlackBerry was planning on sending me one for review. Outside of that, however, I didn't know what to expect. My last foray into the BlackBerry world was with the BlackBerry Classic, which I used almost exclusively for business purposes. At that time, I was rocking two cellphones: one for work, one for my personal use. The system worked, but handling two phones at once ...
Read MoreTear Down That Fourth Wall: A Look At Yooka-Laylee’s Writing
I’ve said again and again in my reviews of platformers that these types games usually don’t have good stories. In general, the writing in platformers is anywhere from “well, its a fun game” to “cringe, cringe, cringe”. There are exceptions to that rule though, such as Ratchet & Clank and Super Paper Mario. And awhile Yooka-Laylee for Nintendo Switch doesn’t have as good a story as Ratchet & Clank or Super Paper Mario, it does have excellent dialogue! Warning: there…
Read MorePinball FX 3 Available now on Nintendo Switch – Get Three Free Tables for a Limited Time!
A console without a pinball game is a travesty, and thankfully Nintendo has avoided going into the new year without its own ball bouncing fun! Thanks to Zen Studio, Pinball FX 3 has landed on the Nintendo Switch just in time for the holidays, and with the Switch's unique features, it might just be the best pinball experience yet!
Read MorePokémon Crystal coming to Nintendo 3DS January 26
Having Pokémon games on the eShop has been great, and allowed me to go back and revisit some of my favorite titles in the series. Like the Mario Bros games, Pokémon titles seem to be the games you tend to buy over and over again if you are a huge fan; with the launch of Pokémon Crystal on the Nintendo eShop this January, I'll be able to add an other Pokémon classic to my collection of Pokémon games. Read the entire press release from Nintendo below, and stay tuned for more Pokémon Crystal news!
Read MoreSquareboy Vs. Bullies: Arena Edition Review
I reviewed Squareboy Vs. Bullies: Arena Edition on the Nintendo Switch. I thought the game was good but not a great game. Last week, Squareboy was brought to the Nintendo 3DS. Is the game better on the 3DS, not as good, or should you avoid the game altogether on this system? Squareboy Vs. Bullies is not a horrible beat ’em up, but if you have a Nintendo Switch and a 3DS, you should buy this game on the Switch. The…
Read MoreInto the Pixelated Dungeon: A Look At One More Dungeon For Nintendo Switch
One More Dungeon for the Nintendo Switch sneaks up on you. Of course, you would think you would know by the name “One More Dungeon” that something addictive might be waiting for you. Though, you’ve been through so many randomized dungeon crawlers before, maybe you’re becoming a little jaded? Granted, the concept of One More Dungeon isn’t anything new, but the execution of it will hook you. Ratalakia Games provided GamesReviews.com with a review code of this game. I’m not…
