The Order: 1886 – PlayStation 4
The Order: 1886 is one of the most visually stunning games to ever grace a home console, but are there any brains behind this beauty? NerdBacon’s theWatchman braves the seamy underbelly of this alternative depiction of London to find out. Check out this full review of The Order: 1886 for PlayStation 4.
WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames! – Game Boy Advance
Join Jimmy, Dribble & Spitz, Mona, 9-Volt, Orbulon, Dr. Crygor, and Kat & Ana, with the insatiable Wario at the helm, as they compile an impressive catalog of silly, absurd, and humorous microgames for all to enjoy. And who’s here to analyze their endeavors? You guessed it! Nerd Bacon’s ZB reviews WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgames! for the Game Boy Advance.
Super Mario All-Stars – Super Nintendo
What better way to celebrate Super Mario’s birthday than with his first four games, including the original sequel, wrapped up into one with improved graphics and sound! Casual and hardcore fans alike will love this compilation of four of the greatest games ever made.
Mario Party – Nintendo 64
Nerd Bacon hops in their time machine to go back to 1999, the year the Mario Party franchise first began. This party franchise has evolved a lot over the years, but Steroid Gamer takes it old school in this review. So grab some friends and let’s start some multiplayer havoc. Just don’t forget your gloves. To prevent blisters, of course.
Wario World – GameCube
It’s 2016, everybody. A new year. Time to start fresh. And what better way of starting fresh than returning to something old and familiar? We’ve had loads of fun with Wario on the small screen…now it’s time to live out an adventure so big, it calls for a world of his own. That’s right folks, this time, Nerd Bacon’s Wario buff ZB is taking on the grandiose settings of Wario World for the GameCube!
Guitar Hero Live – PS4
Music games are back! For now at least…see all that Guitar Hero Live did right…and what it still needs to work on before next time.
Super Smash Bros. – Nintendo 64
The concept of including a bunch of big name characters in one game definitely isn’t an idea unique to Nintendo. With games like X-Men vs. Street Fighter and Marvel vs. Capcom, how did Smash Bros succeed so well?
Word Rescue – PC
Word Rescue by Redwood Games is an excellent educational game for the younger children, teaching vital spelling and word association skills without taking them out of the gameplay. Another Apogee-sponsored classic, this is right up there with Math Rescue in being elementary school-level programs that just about any growing child could really prosper from, even today. Don’t be a Gruzzle, give a book a nuzzle! …That made more sense in my head.
Yoshi – Game Boy
LET’S TALK ABOUT YOSHI!
Super Mario Sunshine – GameCube
Super Mario Sunshine may not be the greatest Mario installment, but solid controls, fun puzzles and great graphics prove that this game has stood the test of time. There can be minutes of frustration, but those can’t compare to the hours of enjoyment.
Wartune: Hall of Heroes – Android
Nerdy Friend has played Wartune for months before deciding to review it. Now, the time has come. Nerdy Friend reviews Wartune, a free to play app available in app stores.
Fallout 3 – Xbox 360
Ten years after the release of the final main game in the Fallout series, Fallout 2, the long awaited third installment was released…..by Bethesda Softworks. And thus began a divide in the Fallout fanbase.
Super Mario Galaxy 2 – Wii
Super Mario Galaxy 2 is the Empire Strikes Back of Mario games. The innovation and excitement of the previous game is increased tenfold in this second installment. Ingenious level design, thrilling new suits, and involved, yet intuitive gameplay make for an unforgettable experience that every Mario fan, nay, every gamer needs.
Gunpoint – PC
Nerd Bacon’s Justicescooby reviews Suspicious Development’s stealth-puzzle title Gunpoint! Gunpoint is an extremely short game, which not many gamers tend to appreciate. Can Gunpoint make up for its shortness?
