When I saw Meridian’s Against The Fire!, I was reminded of the first video game that I ever saw, which featured fire fighting as a theme. Granted, it was set in the future and the cast of characters were wearing body armor (a la Evangelion), but there is no denying that SEGA’s Burning Rangers, which was one [...]

I don’t know about you, but I still get nostalgic for good ol’ Night Trap, one of the best FMV (full-motion-video) games ever made. Oh, wait… I got that mixed up with Dragon’s Lair. Well, at least it had Dana Plato (a swig for me and another for my homie… RIP, girl!) from Diff’rent Strokes in the lead [...] While Taxiball didn’t really need our help to make a Top 50 (under Games/Arcade), I’m glad that it did drop out temporarily so we can give our own special brand of accolades.

For one, it feels just right for the iPhone/iPod Touch as it’s simple controls, such as touching the enemy to target/shoot it and pressing above/below your ship to maneuver it, make it easy and understandable to use. Another [...] I rather not tout an app that is already popular, but after I found out that it’s not in the Top 50, I was shocked and had to voice my dismay. You see, some time back, I had seen a glimpse of Edge in J2ME on a Sony Ericsson W580i and I was really impressed. Now on the [...] “Something old, something new, and something borrowed…” is all I could think about when I got my hands on this incredibly fascinating game from the good people at Glu Mobile, who may have just come up with the perfect marriage between gaming and the iPhone. First, in “something old,” Glyder seemingly pays homage to some landmark games [...] |
