Best Games of March
Posted on March 31, 2010 | 3 CommentsEvery month is filled with the latest big names in gaming on each platform, under the radar hits, and games that didn't meet their respective expectations. March in 2010 was no different -- we had big name titles such as Pokemon and Final Fantasy hit the scene -- along with an eagerly anticipated sequel to a game that failed on its promises. So, what were the best of March 2010? Your resident Nintendo Editor (myself), Senior Editor Modus, and Staff Writer Jynx weigh in their opinions. -
WarioWare D.I.Y | Review (DS)
Posted on March 30, 2010 | 1 CommentThe WarioWare series is well known for its zany and unique "microgames" -- literally, mini-mini games that require a simple task and only last about five or so seconds. Past WarioWare games such as WarioWare Touched for the Nintendo DS carried a bit of story with each category of microgames. Each set would have a specific character doing some crazy activity -- such as disco dancing -- and the microgames for that character would be somehow representative of that theme. WarioWare D.I.Y carries on the tradition of character-driven microgames, but it also brings forth a mechanic that is seldom seen in video games: the ability to make your own games, or rather, make your own microgames. -

What the Nut? Edition One: Camera Angles
Posted on March 27, 2010 | 11 CommentsCamera angles are one of the often underappreciated good things in a video game. A good camera angle lets you fully view your character and environment. Back in the days of 2D gaming an overhead view was often used along with a sidescrolling view, with the latter of which still being used today in some 2D platforming games. When the 3D era hit, most developers had trouble programming in that third dimensional space. There were many great games once they got the hang of it, but even some of the greats had horrid camera angles. -
