DS - The Incredible Hulk - The Incredible Hulk

Chugging through The Incredible Hulk’s 30 side-scrolling levels is like running through a maze where all the walls are transparent: It looks like you can go anywhere, but really you’re being cordoned down a very specific path. Because while the 360 and PS3 versions of this movie tie-in set you in a city that’s yours to explore and destroy, the DS iteration only creates the illusion of freedom.

The levels are large and ...

DS - Insecticide - Insecticide You can’t take a gander at Insecticide’s premise and say “Well, I’ve seen that before a million times.” In the future, mankind’s dominion of Earth has been usurped by the lowly insects, because we used too many chemicals on our crops. Insects grew to man-size (and bigger), became intelligent, and now keep “hominids” around for menial tasks. Okay, doesn’t sound too out there yet, right?The ...

Inuyasha: Secret of the Divine Jewel looks predictable: nothing special, but possibly something fans of the anime series will at least enjoy. In the beginning, this seems to be the case. Once you leave the first battle, though, the game will quickly shows its nature… way, way too quickly. Weve played a lot of RPGs in which enemies randomly ambushed us as we walked from place to place - that's practically a staple of role-playing games. But we can safely say Inuyasha: Secret of the ...

“Iron Man, locate this. Iron Man, destroy this. Iron Man, kill this. And while you’re at it, make me a cup of coffee.” So says Tony Stark’s irritating computer Jarvis in Sega’s mind-numbing DS release of Iron Man (Jarvis doesn’t actually say this verbatim, but his requests eventually begin to feel like mom’s constant nagging). And while you’re trying to get Jarvis off your ass by doing what he ...

Has anyone, in the world, ever, managed to complete an entire game of Monopoly? From our experience, it generally goes something like this: one player goes bust on the first round and spends the rest of the night doing an equally bad job as the banker. Someone else - usually that smarmy sibling who earns a little bit more than you - buys up all the train stations. The next seven hours are spent slowly giving Mr. Smarm your money, until eventually, everyone starts hustling each other, money goes ...

DS - Izuna 2: The Unemployed Ninja Returns - Izuna 2: The Unemployed Ninja Returns

Life can be hard, but there is usually a lesson to be learned in defeat. Following that notion, Izuna and its dungeon-crawler brethren are a freaking fountain of knowledge, because they are built on the principle of unforgiving difficulty. Sure, there are some easier games in the genre, but these turn-based action games (we know it’s an oxymoron) are some of the most purposely wicked titles around, because they are built on the principle of unforgiving difficulty. ...

Youd be forgiven for thinking that Izuna: Legend of the Unemployed Ninja was based on some obscure anime property. Hell, it looks it, from its pink-haired heroine with eyes the size of baseballs to its light-hearted sense of humor - and you can bet the publishers are betting on that assumption to sell the game. But, to its credit, its an original property chock full of quirky characters, ridiculous situations, and a pretty solid combat system. While traveling with her posse, presumably looking ...
