Half-Minute Hero Super Neo Climax Review
Ever wanted to play an RPG that doesn't require hours upon hours of invested time? Well, Marvelous Entertainment have created the game for you. Originally released as a PSP game, Half-Minute Hero Super Neo Climax is a retro role-playing game for XBLA, which gives you a short 30 second time limit to complete quests.
If this sounds like something interesting (which it truly is,) then check out my full review:

Lucha Fury Review
Growing up in the nineties, one of my favourite types of video games was the side-scrolling beat 'em-up. Games that were fun through countless playthroughs, due to well-designed combat mechanics and enjoyable levels with great set pieces.
In order to try to rejuvenate that classic sub-genre, Punchers Impact set to work on Lucha Fury - a game that brings Mexican wrestlers and humor to the party. However, it seems like there was too much effort put forth into the visual fidelity of the game and not enough focus on the way it plays.
Read on as I perform a suplex on this downloadable title:

Cubic Ninja Review
When one thinks of a ninja, the image that usually appears in their mind is of a man in black hiding in the shadows using stealth tactics. In Cubic Ninja from Ubisoft, we're tasked with becoming a ninja who must use gravity to move from point A to point B in different obstacle courses.

Shadows of the Damned Review
Journey into surreal madness in Suda 51's interpretation of Hell. A demonic underworld where things resemble Earth at times, but take shocking turns and encounter startling alterations around different corners. One of the most interesting and unique worlds gaming has ever seen.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D Review
What is arguably the best game of all-time has come to the Nintendo 3DS, with newly re-done visuals, slight gameplay upgrades and some new additions. If you've been waiting to pick up a 3DS until it gets its first triple-A must-buy title, then you're in luck.
Read my thoughts on what could be the definitive iteration of the best game of all-time.

Dungeon Siege 3 Review
It's been thirty years after the assassination of its king, and the kingdom of Ehb has been broken into different states. Its former protectors, the 10th Legion, have gone into hiding after most of their members were wiped out by a renegade witch with terrible intentions. They fear for their lives and their bloodline.
Your goal is to take part in a secret uprising that will hopefully see the Legion regain what was theirs, bringing peace back to the land.
Dungeon-crawling fans of hack n' slash games will really want to take a look at this one. It's tried and true, but really quite good.

The Adventures of Shuggy (XBLA) Review
After inheriting a dark and brooding castle from his late uncle, a young purple vampire must come to terms with his fear of the dark and what lies within. That's pretty much the premise of this puzzle-platformer, but story isn't a big factor here. It's more about gem collecting, precise jumps and creative puzzles. Plus, co-op/competitive multiplayer.
If you like puzzle games, you owe it to yourself to check this out.
