DS REVIEW: The Legendary Starfy — The Legendary Starfy is the North American release of a game series that has seen a lot of success in Japan. This iteration sees the main character, Starfy (yes, he’s an actual star) sleeping in bed when a spacesuit-wearing bunny falls through the ceiling of Pufftop Palace and lands on our hero.

REVIEW: Ninja Blade — Ninja Blade is a game that I feel I have always wanted, and one that I might have actually tried to create, had I the time and the inclination to do such things. The game successfully takes two of my favourite things – Ninjas and Zombies and marries them together in what is likely one of the most hilarious ways possible.

E3: A Boy And His Blob — I’d nearly forgotten that A Boy and his Blob was originally announced several years ago at E3. If I remember correctly, it was a DS title. Having no idea whatever became of that version, and watching playable footage of the title today, I can easily say that it has all worked out for the better.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled — This title will be made available over Xbox LIVE Arcade on July 22, with a PlayStation Network version dropping later in the year. You might remember the previous home console version of this game on the Super Nintendo. In fact, it’s a game I still sometimes lament not owning.
