Infendo Review – Sonic Forces (Switch)
Sonic Forces does a lot right. It delivers a really enjoyable experience that's just a bit more serious than past Sonic titles, which is all the better. In terms of gameplay, it probably falls just short of Sonic Colors, but the differences from level to level really help keep the game moving at a quick pace. The entire game can probably be finished in a day or two, and while there is some incenti...
Super Mario Odyssey amiibo support + 3 new amiibo
It is really nice that Nintendo included amiibo support, for those who collect them as a bonus, as well as providing the ability to unlock the same in-game content to gamers who do not but still want to unlock everything. Either way you play, Super Mario Odyssey is an amazing game and well worth your time.
Super Mario Odyssey amiibo support + 3 new amiibo
Warning! Mild Spoilers! Super Mario Odyssey is an awesome game. People really love it. I love it too. It has been receiving excellent reviews all over the place. This, however, is not a standard review of the game. What is discussed below are the 3 new amiibo in the Super Mario series and the amiibo support for Super Mario Odyssey. As an avid amiibo collector I am always looking for the next game ...
Retro Review – Contra 4 (DS)
I haven’t played that many Contra games. Prior to Contra 4 the only Contra game I’ve had any real previous experience with is Operation C for the Game Boy and a little Contra III too on the SNES. Contra 4 feels right at home with those games. As the name of the game indicates this is a direct sequel to Contra III: The Alien Wars. So expect to fight against never ending hordes of various military t...
Retro Review – Contra 4 (DS)
At the time of its original release this was only the second portable Contra game in the series. Contra 4 does an amazing job at being both new and nostalgic at the same time. It is able to hit all the things that make a Contra game fun to play while also adding something to the series. And for player looking for a challenge Contra 4 delivers. This game is definitely recommended for anyone that wa...
Retro Review – Metroid II: Return of Samus (GB)
Metroid II holds up very well as a bite sized Samus adventure. By no means is it a long game. My play through was a little under 5 hours. I would absolutely recommend playing this game. Especially if you are interested in either the remake or Metroid Prime 4 when that is eventually released. Also I feel that this version of Metroid II could be played either before or after the remake as an excelle...
Retro Review – Metroid II: Return of Samus (GB)
First a little background information: Metroid II was my introduction to the Metroid franchise. My first time playing it was way back in the day on the original Game Boy as a kid. My parents gave me a Game Boy because every summer we would go on long road trips from Northern California to Southern California to visit my grandparents. Being in a car for 8 hours a day provides lots of free time for ...
Nugget of Wisdom: A Chicken Wiggle Review
At $14.99, for all the content it offers both online and offline, Chicken Wiggle is a steal, and a must have for any 3DS owner, new or lapsed. While I personally find the level editor overwhelming, there is a large community who evidently does not, and they are continuously creating new levels that are free to download.
Nugget of Wisdom: A Chicken Wiggle Review
By Steve Peacock There are a few developers I follow very closely. Yacht Club Games (Shovel Knight) and Gajin Games (Bit.Trip series) are two of the three that come to mind right off the bat. The one we are going to focus on today, Atooi, founded by Jools Watsham, is another of those devs. He is best known for Mutant Mudds, Mutant Mudds Super Challenge, and Xeodrifter. He is one of those devs that...
Infendo Review – Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is a creative concept, and a game that plays very well. It's biggest shortcoming is that for such a wacky fusion of two different game universes, there really isn't much being done creatively. Sure, there are the aforementioned boss battles and a handful of fun environmental scenes, but overall it feels like a missed opportunity. It's an enjoyable game, it's funny, ...
Infendo Review – Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle
Banjo & Kazooie. ToeJam & Earl. Mario and… Rabbids!? No, this isn’t a parallel universe, and NO, you aren’t having the world’s tamest fever dream. Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle is very much a real game exclusively for the Nintendo Switch, and it happens to fill a currently very-empty void in the Switch’s gaming library. Not only is this game technically the ...
The Conduit – Retro Review
If you have a Wii or Wii U, and you're looking for something cheap to kill about 10 hours with, The Conduit is worth a try. Typically selling used for around $5, it's hard to consider it much of a gamble, anyway. Multiplayer is nonexistent, obviously, so play it for its campaign, then put it on your shelf for the novelty it is: a T-rated FPS on a system mostly used for playing Mario games and virt...
