Dancing with the Stars was always an interesting but baffling show to me. To this day I still can't figure out why watching has-beens and D-listers learn to dance is so interesting, but by jove it is. And why any of us feel the need to vote every week is beyond me, but I voted [...]
Master of the Monster Lair is an odd little game. Even though it's childish and repetitive, I still found myself compelled to grind through and keep digging down into my cave. I am the master of it, after all, and with such responsibility comes a certain amount of pride. Original post by Arts-and-Entertainment:Animation Articles from [...]
By now DS owners are used to mediocre sports compilations finding their way onto Nintendo's little system. Unfortunately Winter Sports 2 from Conspiracy Entertainment and 49Games does nothing to buck that trend. In the game you can participate in seven different sports taken from the winter Olympics. The controls are functional, but the gameplay is [...]
It may skew a little young with some silly “go green” undertones that bubble a bit too much to the surface, but Elebits: The Adventures of Kai and Zero is a charming, fun, and satisfying game that takes a few of the Wii items and bulks them up into something a bit more significant. Original [...]
The magic of Bella Sara, the collectible horse trading cards and online virtual pet game, has captured the attention of many a little girl. I jokingly bought a booster pack for my full grown adult sister and she spent all day on the computer taking care of her new horses. So there's something here. Some [...]
Even though the Touch Generation brand's got a pretty decent track record with titles such as Big Brain Acadamy, Magnetica, Tetris DS, and, most recently, Personal Trainer: Cooking, not every title comes out a winner. Case in point, Personal Trainer: Math, a wanna-be Brain Age that hopes to make practicing math skills fun. Original post [...]
The tale of the girls' vacation adventure of singing songs, learning new dances and fawning over boys was the basis for the latest straight-to-DVD animated film for the franchise, Bratz Girlz Really Rock. This DS effort is an adaptation of that movie — but while the setting and storyline are certainly new for the series, [...]
What's the only thing more American than apple pie? If your answer was anything other than monster trucks, you are not a patriot. Okay, admittedly monster trucks aren't that big of a deal. But giant trucks smashing tiny cars still draw a crowd. And you can smash cars and then some thanks to Monster Jam: [...]
Licensed game powerhouse A2M has been churning out Nintendo DS titles based on High School Musical, Transformers, and The Mummy. Electronic Arts and Pandemic tapped A2M to handle the portable version of Lord of the Rings: Conquest, which ended up being a game of capture the flag set in Middle Earth. It's a fun little [...]
Pony Friends: Mini-Breeds Edition is a newly remixed version of an Eidos-published virtual pet design, and you can only buy it at GameStop. Because it's an “edition” of a game and not the original game itself, this level of exclusivity seems most similar to that seen with Target and Shaun White — in that you [...]
