  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  The PSP has seen a lot of console franchises make a good transition to the portable system this year. Assassin’s Creed: Bloodlines certainly makes a lot of fundamental changes that should’ve made for a great PSP version of the parkour sandbox franchise, but the execution left a lot to desire. Bloodlines takes ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  Everyone’s favorite plumber, Mario, has been out and about for the greater part of two decades now.  This year alone, Nintendo has fallen back on their mascot three times—each with critical acclaim.  The newest entry in the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series is still considered to be the best game available on ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  It’s always interesting hearing what is probably a small pocket of gamers rave about pinball games, whether they’re collections of real tables in digital form or games with new tables that don’t have to worry about that pesky thing called reality when they’re designed. Pinball Heroes is an interesting idea ...

• Review: Tekken 6 (PS3, Xbox 360)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  To say that 2009 is the “Year of the Fighter” would be an understatement.  Street Fighter IV, The King of Fighters XII, and BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger were just some of the more than solid entries into the genre this year on home consoles.  Now Namco has come out with the latest installment in their marquee ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  With so many stellar titles already under Sony’s wing on the Playstation it is hard to pick the top tier franchise that defines the Playstation brand and stands out as the ultimate best.  While the likes of Konami, Rockstar, Insomniac and Naughty Dog have all released innovative and popular franchises, Sony’s own ...

• Review: LocoRoco: Midnight Carnival (PSP)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  One of the interesting features of the PSP Go when it was a rumor, was that it would be able to play a simple game like LocoRoco when it was closed. So it was not a surprise to see the release of a new game in the series a short time after the Go launched last month. LocoRoco: Midnight Carnival is the first true ...

• Review: Space Invaders Extreme 2 (DS)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  One of the more surprising titles released last year was an update to a timeless classic.  Space Invaders Extreme gave the old game some new life with symphonic techno beats to go along with an abstract look in order to freshen the game up for a lively and hectic experience.  With the success it had, it’s no ...

• Review: Nerf N-Strike Elite (Wii)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  In the middle of last year, Nerf guns became all the rage again for some reason or another.  Some laser tag outlets offered hours where they became Nerf gun battle locations, and everyone from little kids to even college students got involved with the foamy fun.  It wouldn’t be long before EA got involved with the ...

• Hasbro Family Game Night 2 (Wii)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  Remember those rainy days where you’d stay home and play board games with your family?  … Yeah, neither do we.  But the fact of the matter is board games still hold some sentimental value, even though sales have dropped drastically over the years—mostly due to the fact that they cost at about $30 a pop.  EA ...

• Review: Left 4 Dead 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, PC)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  Left 4 Dead 2 revives the zombie apocalypse with a breath of fresh air, new excitement and plenty of nonstop action.  Last year’s multiplayer zombie killing bloodfest was plagued with dull level designs, lack of gameplay modes and an affinity for utilizing glitches to achieve victory in Versus mode.  Thankfully ...

• Review: LittleBigPlanet (PSP)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  LittleBigPlanet did a great job of bringing the traditional side-scrolling platform to the high-def generation with a great community of level creators to add a lot of replay value to the package. That’s why the announcement of a PSP version of LittleBigPlanet earlier this year garnered a lot of interest, but has ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  It’s about that time of year again. Publishers put their pistols away and pull out the big guns. Now is the time where the wallets stop emptying, and the latest edition of Call of Duty marks of the signaling of the season.

• Review: Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space (Xbox 360)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  Getting into a groove is definitely a must for any good episodic series, especially when you’re being sold the whole season at once. Sam & Max’s first season didn’t really start getting good until the last two episodes, which seems to have to their second season, Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space, starting ...

• Review: C.O.P The Recruit (DS)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  C.O.P. The Recruit is a bit of an odd entity. While it doesn’t stand out as anything terrific, it doesn’t feel like much of a letdown in what it is trying to do. It’s a relatively expansive game for the DS, taking both New York City and Jersey and squeezing them into a playground for your 50+ missions. We ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  Forza Motorsport set out to become Microsoft’s flagship racing franchise. Its first incarnation on the original Xbox showed that developer Turn 10 was very much up to the task. In 2007 a sequel was released for the Xbox 360 and that took what worked in the original and expanded upon it in just about every way. ...

  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  With how clichéd stories in RPGs are these days, it’s a pleasure to see a game that does something unique with its gameplay to really set it apart from the pack. XSeed’s Half-Minute Hero breaks up its story and levels into 30 second chunks that fits the portable it’s on very well. The result is easily one of ...

• Review: Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time (PS3)

  
  SmashPad — Authority: 122
  With major platforming releases being rare these days, it’s nice to see companies like Insomniac Games and Nintendo continue with their own series to give fans of the genre something to look forward to from time to time.
