	Shin Megami Tensei IV review (3DS) Reviewed on July 20, 2013 Shin Megami Tensei IV is in many ways exactly the game I didn’t dare hope it would be, a genuine triumph that belongs in your library if you love the series or even if you just like a challenging and mostly unique JRPG, portable or otherwise. With all of that high praise appropriately heaped, though, I must add that the game is most certainly not without its flaws.
	Metal Gear review (NES) Reviewed on July 15, 2013 If you can go into this game with the knowledge that it’s a flawed version of the original game from the outset, it can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
	Flying Warriors review (NES) Reviewed on July 15, 2013 These warriors fly about as well as I do when I put on a cape and jump from the roof.
	Kid Icarus review (NES) Reviewed on July 15, 2013 I’m here to let you in on a little secret: Kid Icarus isn’t actually very good.
	Final Fantasy III review (SNES) Reviewed on July 11, 2013 Oh, the beautiful white text of high damage numbers.
	Tougi-Ou: King Colossus review (GEN) Reviewed on July 11, 2013 You start out as some anonymous kid living with an old guy who seems to hate you, and a younger woman who tries to work as a buffer. She also heals you whenever you visit, so I liked her almost as much as I hated how the game basically shrugs off the old dude's behavior as "tough love".
	Exed Exes review (NES) Reviewed on July 11, 2013 What's this? An unexpectedly kind but ultimately humdrum shooter entirely overpopulated by bees?!
	Machinarium review (PS3) Reviewed on July 10, 2013 Machinarium’s Dr. Suess-esque world, serene music, and thought provoking puzzles make this one of the most rewarding puzzle games I have ever played.
	Dig Dug review (NES) Reviewed on July 09, 2013 The player character of Dig Dug married (and later divorced) the player character of Baraduke/Alien Sector and their son is the main character of Mr. Driller. The Dig Dug mythos is rich enough without even looking at the UGSF craziness.
	Altered Space: A 3-D Alien Adventure review (GB) Reviewed on July 08, 2013 The game dumps you off in a small room, expecting you to travel through several rooms in many different possible paths until you find an elevator or teleporter that takes you to the next level. The game takes an isometric perspective, with developers Software Creations having also created the isometric Solstice for the NES. Problem: the NES was a console that sent visual and audio data to a TV screen, and had colour. The Game Boy had a pea-green screen that was only 2 inches across.
	Xexyz review (NES) Reviewed on July 08, 2013 Other than them, Xexyz is a pretty manageable game with my main stalling point being one particular boss fought fairly late into the game. Horrza looks pretty awesome (the fact that he’s a jet-pack-wearing dragon wielding a pair of guns — one seemingly grafted into its tail — might be the coolest thing imaginable), but he'll utterly slaughter all but the most skilled players with nonstop fire aided by his erratic movements up and down the screen.
	Code Name: Viper review (NES) Reviewed on July 07, 2013 People use the word “clone” a lot these days as they talk about video games, sometimes unjustly. Some games really do deserve that unwanted label, though, and there are few titles with a more legitimate claim to it than Code Name: Viper for the NES. That isn't to say that it’s a poor product, however.
	Mendel Palace review (NES) Reviewed on July 06, 2013 Puppet Master + 8-bit + Japanese = Mendel Palace
	Remember Me review (PC) Reviewed on July 06, 2013 It's not dull; it's too varied for that. What it's lacking, though, is anything that truly makes it stand out on the gameplay front. It would have only taken one thing to elevate this material, and the memory remix levels almost do that, but there are only four of them, in a campaign that'll run you nine or ten hours to complete.
	Heavyweight Championship Boxing review (GB) Reviewed on July 05, 2013 Heavyweight Championship Boxing was the first boxing game on a Nintendo handheld. With no real predecessor to look at, developers TOSE were required to design the game interface and hope their vision did not flop on arrival. Heavyweight Championship Boxing turned out surprisingly decent.
	Mass Destruction review (SAT) Reviewed on July 03, 2013 Really, all you need is one brief inspection of Mass Destruction's case to get a very good idea of what you're getting for your money. Want something briefer? How about: a game called Mass Destruction.
	The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim review (PS3) Reviewed on July 02, 2013 Shout... Shout... Let it all out...
	Final Fantasy IX review (PSX) Reviewed on July 01, 2013 In all of its pretty, purposeful pastiche, it forgets it needs to be something playable.
	The Last of Us review (PS3) Reviewed on June 30, 2013 Instead, Joel’s personal motives are called into question. As his protection of Ellie becomes more and more desperate, the astute gamer will not be able to escape wondering whether Joel is trying to replace his own lost family with this little girl—leading her into an unbalanced emotional reliance in the process.
	LEGO City Undercover review (WIIU) Reviewed on June 24, 2013 Lego City: Undercover is a game I recommend for all the Wii U owners that have been waiting for a new game since launch. The game is hilarious and is fun to play for all ages, for both the casual and hardcore.
