Spinera is a combination of a slot machine game and Civilization. and scratches an itch Civ fans didn’t know they still had. It starts quickly, isn’t overwhelming at first, and ramps up gameplay in a measured way.

Nickelodeon Extreme Tennis: Next! brings the Nicktoons we know and love from Avatar: The Last Airbender’s Aang to the titular CatDog duo. While some of the graphics can be impressive, it is quite obvious that this is a port of the mobile game. Don’t expect anything as lavish or impressive as the Mario Tennis series with this one, despite its obvious inspiration.

Mina the Hollower is a game I’ve been anticipating ever since it was first premiered over four years ago. Even when Yacht Club Games went dark for a couple of years, I didn’t give up hope. These were the guys behind Shovel Knight, after all, and that was basically the perfect game–a generation-defining title, I’d even say.

After finishing the R-Type Delta HD Boosted review, I was asked if I had any interest in checking out R-Type Dimensions III. This is most certainly something I was interested in looking at, since it is a remake of what…

Bubsy 4D is the cat’s meow and a nearly purr-fect reintroduction for the unfairly maligned orange bobcat. The game takes what’s worked about Bubsy as a character, like his sense of humor and the world he lives in, and puts him in a stellar 3D platformer that deserves to be talked about in the same conversation as other classics in the genre. While the game is short and suffers from occasional camera issues, Bubsy 4D does what the developers set out to do wonderfully.

From the depths of the 90s and early 2000s are several Rugrats games that hold a special place in the hearts of many Nickelodeon fans.

I don’t really care for coffee. Sorry, I’ve tried. I really have. I can’t stand the taste, nor the texture. I’ve tried it black, I’ve tried it iced, I’ve tried lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, floats, and every other possible way coffee can be consumed… and it just doesn’t do it for me. If I need a caffeine hit, it’s gotta be a soda for me. But you know what I do like? Japan.

As sports games grow ever closer to fully adopting a freemium model, people continue to long for the good old days of arcade sports. I’m a huge NFL fan who got into it by playing countless games of NFL Blitz, then NFL Street a few years after that, and I’m sure there are hardcore NBA fans out there who got their start on NBA Jam and NBA Street.
