There's plenty to talk about after our session with the game but here we want to focus on pass timing and flight path.You'll have to bear with us because we tend to ignore the fancy names given to new Madden 13...

Back to the Future: The Game

Release Date: October 25, 2011 Publisher: Telltale Games ESRB Rating: TeenAre you telling me that you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean? Great, Scott! Whoa, this is heavy, Doc. Most people can tell you what movie these lines are from, and most can even pull off a Christopher Lloyd or Michael J. Fox impression while doing so. Of course the movie is Back to the Future. If you have shunned movies and general pop culture for the past 27 years, I suggest you go out and buy the trilogy on DVD or Blu-Ray immediately. You'll laugh through the first...

Review - Draw Something

OMGPOP's Draw Something one of the newest hits to come from the app store.As the title suggests Draw Something is a drawing game, which would usually put it into the "will not play." But surprising to me, I'm actually a fan of the game especially since my drawing ability is that of a two-year-old child. It is probably because the person I'm playing with can somehow realize that my stick figure drawing with what looked like a red hula-hoop is the word belt.After a game starts, you are given three words with varying levels of difficulty with the...

Review - Dungeon Raid

Dungeon RaidDungeon raid. The title brings to mind a RPG where you are battling to defeat the big bad guy with a group of your friends. But Dungeon Raid for the iOS isn't really a RPG, it is a match three game mixed with a RPG. Surprisingly it is one of the best games in my opinion for the iOS, and I believe that everyone would enjoy playing it.At it's heart, Dungeon Raid is a match-three game. On the playing field there are various icons; potions, shields, coins, swords, and skulls. You match them up to remove them and gather what they represent....

James Noir's Hollywood Crimes

I got my Nintendo 3DS at the beginning of the year, along with The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This is my favorite game of all time and, I'll admit, the only reason I traded in my DSi for the 3DS was to play Ocarina again. While I love Ocarina, it's also a huge commitment. It takes dedication, and then there are all the little side quests you can do. Then once you've completed the game you get to play the "Master Quest" version. Needless to say, I got my sword and shield at the beginning of the game and.... That's as far as I got. I wasn't...

Super Mario 3D Player Review

Nintendo expected their new handheld 3DS system to sell like hot cakes... but it unfortunately didn't.

Let me first say that I wasn't sure what to expect. This applies to both the handheld itself and the game. Nintendo hasn't let me down in the past, so I felt at least some level of confidence...

Men In Black 3 Review: Protecting The Galaxy On IOS And Android

Barring another dominant performance from The Avengers, the top movie this weekend should be Men in Black 3 (sorry, Chernobyl Diaries), the big-budget sequel starring Will Smith and a whole bunch of computer-generated aliens.

Just don't go into this title expecting to run around blasting bad guys.Oddly enough, the game revolves around the simulation aspect of operating your own MIB agency and a heavy dose of time management....

Review - Tiny Tower

Tiny Tower, the latest game from the folks at Nimblebit, is the subject of today's review. As the games title suggests, you are in charge of building a tower.From the start Tiny Tower pulls you in with a layer of charm that almost all the Nimblebit games have.

But this adds to Tiny Tower, rather than subtract from it.The goal of Tiny Tower is to build a tower, bring in new bitzens to work and live in it, and complete some semi-simple missions.

However, such was not the case back when The Tower of Druaga was released on the Famicom in 1985.ConceptThe...
