Better than the original.

Sanity didn’t last long enough

Nevertheless, for $4, Top Gun is pretty hard to beat. Download it now and show the world that, yes, you are dangerous.

The iPhone would probably be the last place we’d expect to see a laser-disc game. I mean, come on, how can you fit a frickin’ laser disc onto something that’s smaller than the size of your hand? Surprisingly enough, though, Digital Leisure has done the impossible, cramming Don Bluth’s 1983 arcade game Space Ace into it with little to no problems.

Ninja Council 4 is a modest sequel to the Ninja Council series and a fair adaptation of the Shippuden series. The younger and less hardcore you are, the more you’ll enjoy this game.

Tiger Woods PGA Tour Golf is the debut for the series on the iPhone, and EA Sports could’ve easily just ported over an earlier version of the game and called it good. Instead, it went in from the ground up and tailor-made an exquisite golf experience for pros and amateurs alike, thanks to a fundamental touch-screen gameplay system, a mostly solid presentation, and abundant extras that will have you scoring birdies for hours on end.

After several years in hibernation (not counting the previous XBLA/PSN release Bionic Commando: Rearmed), Capcom’s Bionic Commando franchise is swinging back into action with an all-new 3-D adventure, from the talented development team at Grin. Along with his firearms, he has a trusty mechanical arm that he uses to swing, grab objects and other neat features. The game has many things in common with the NES original (as well as Rearmed), but it’s not quite all it could’ve been.

We’re glad to see Punch-Out!! back on the comeback trail. Next Level Games did a splendid job with it, and we can’t wait to see what project Nintendo has lined up next for them. It truly is the champ.

Her Pet Peeves by Seventeen is a game geared towards a very specific demographic, the preteen girl, and to that extent is a game with a very specific and somewhat superficial appeal. Aside from the ability to use a photo of your very own to create a customized pet peeve, the game is chalk full of teenage stereotypes that are not necessarily the kind an adult woman such as myself wants to see perpetuated.

Overall, Women Lead the World is an informative app available for your iPod, iPhone or iPad, celebrating the accomplishments and leadership of women all over the world; allowing you to evaluate your own beliefs and how they stack up to those of the game’s selected women.

Last Rebellion. The title, itself sparks images of intrigue and intense combat; of mystery and the struggle for survival and victory…a kill or be killed, sacrifice or be sacrificed situation with scenes of love, hate, betrayal, and temptation. A title such as this promises all that and more…but would the game do justice to such a name?

The excitement keeps rolling and building as you head out and fight for survival in China’s largest city. From explosions to bullets zigzagging in every direction, the only thing you can place trust on is yourself and your partner. But will that be enough?

Imaginative storyline, great combat and beautifully detailed environment. I highly recommend this game to anybody that enjoys a good game. If you’re a casual gamer, you can pick this up and enjoy the game at your own pace. If you’re an extreme gamer that likes to complete a game with all missions and items collected, this is your game…but it won’t be a simple task!

The UnderGarden is an enchanting experience and truly the most relaxing game I’ve ever played. With bright colors, soft movements and a never-ending flow of music, this game is appropriate for all ages and I would highly recommend it for small children at home. Music can be repetitive, but the blooming colors never get old. Puzzles are just challenging enough to be stimulating.

This is a cute, family-friendly party style game that could turn out to be a hit with teen and family Wii-party crowds. What it lacks in creativity and originality it makes up for energy and enthusiasm; die-hard fans of the show will no doubt be all over this game, finding it a suitable addition to their catalog. Advanced gamers, however, might get bored quickly with the game and its limited episodes. With only four episodes, anyone who masters the games efficiently won’t find much upside in repeat play, but the casual gamer will have fun around the Wii with friends and family.

Auditorium is a simple, yet effective puzzle game that is challenging while not overwhelming. The music is relaxing and to hear all the parts played together (i.e. solving the puzzle) is surprisingly satisfying. A tad repetitive after a while, but still a nice way to relax your mind…or stimulate it.

Nail’d is everything Deep Silver promised and more. The controls are just like any racing game you’ve ever played, so you can jump right in and go ape-sh*t crazy on this bad boy. The rock/metal soundtrack will pound in your ears, just like your heartbeat…as you’re doing a wheelie over a hot air balloon. Appealing to both sexes and adrenaline junkies of all ages, Nail’d delivers one hell of a ride.
