SG PAX Prime 2011: Jetpack Joyride
I’d like to start off this preview by letting everyone know that I want an iPad and you should buy me one. The reason you should gift me this device is because I’m awesome, and that pretty much sums it up. Now that that’s out of the way: I got to play some Jetpack Joyride…

SG PAX Prime 2011: Shoot Many Robots
Shoot Many Robots is a game that puts you up against robots and your goal is to… wait for it… shoot as many of them as possible! It’s a title quite fitting of the overall purpose of its product. The demo I got to play at PAX had me and one of the developers going…

SG Review: Fruit Ninja Kinect
Despite several people disliking motion control (ahem, Yoshifett), there are a few games out there that work with the implementation.

SG E3 2011: You’ll Want to Play with these Aliens
This game can be summed up in one sentence: it has aliens and guns… and it looks great! Aliens: Colonial Marines looks like it’s going to turn out to be a great experience filled with constant saliva falling from the ceiling and scared soldiers looking in the wrong direction before its too late.

SG E3 2011: SEGA Games Worth Downloading
I’m not one to pay much attention to arcade and PSN titles (well, unless they’re somehow related to Batman) since I’m usually focusing my attention on getting my friends to lend me their disc games. However, SEGA presented me with two titles that look like they’re worth the time and money to download. So keep…

SG E3 2011: Kinect Previews
It seems like the word “Kinect,” or in general “motion control,” has become a dirty word amongst the “hardcore” gaming community. I personally do not want motion control shoehorned into every game in the future, although that’s something Microsoft has stated may happen with all its first-party titles. However, I also won’t deny that there…
