Publisher: Nintendo
Genre: Turn Based RPG
Release Date: 03/14/2010
Well, it’s finally here – the day I know most of our readers have been waiting for: the release of Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver. As most of the audience here at Diehard GameFAN know, I’ve had copies of Pokemon Heart [...]
Bermuda Triangle: Saving The Coral
Developer: North Pole Studio
Publisher: Storm City Games
Genre: Puzzle
Release Date: 02/23/2010
One of the most popular style of the puzzle genre is the match three style. By that I mean areas are cleared by matching similar colored objects off of a game board. Just on the Nintendo DS you can find [...]
MYST
Publisher: Storm City Games
Developer: Hoplite Research
Genre: Adventure
Release Date: 02/09/2010
MYST doesn’t really need an introduction. It’s a series that has been around for almost as long as I have been on this Earth. During its long tenure, it has spawned multiple sequels and a few remakes. In particular, one of these remakes was of the original [...]
Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth
Developer: Capcom
Publisher: Capcom
Genre: Adventure
Release Date: 02/16/10
The Ace Attorney series has garnered quite the following ever since the release of the first game on the DS outside of Japan. Of course, the games used to be more commonly referred to as Phoenix Wright, but that had to be changed when Apollo [...]
Crime Scene
Publisher: SouthPeak Games
Developer: White Birds Productions
Genre: Adventure
Release Date: 02/16/2010
At this point, I’m clearly no stranger to detective games on the DS. It all started when I played Hotel Dusk. After the awesomeness that was that game, I was ready and willing to play any any other detective game just on the off chance it [...]
Korg DS-10 Plus
Publisher: XSEED Games
Developer: AQ Interactive
Genre: Music
Release Date: 2/16/2010
Hey hey hey! Remember that Korg DS-10 review I did a long while back? No? Anyone? Ok. Well. See, there was this awesome little synth that came out in November 2008 for the Nintendo DS. It was cheap, fun, [...]
Imagine Reporter
Developer: Ubisoft
Publisher: Ubisoft
Genre: Simulation
Release Date: 02/02/10
When I reviewed Imagine Detective back in September, it drew more responses than I expected. So when Imagine Reporter came in, I was deemed the natural choice to cover it. I’m beginning to sense a pattern developing here…
But I digress. Let’s find out how this compares to [...]
Ragnarok DS
Publisher: XSEED Games
Developer: GungHo Works
Genre: Action RPG
Release Date: 02/16/2010
I’m not really an MMORPG person. This is mainly because people tend to be dicks for the sake of being dicks on them. There have only been two MMOPRG’s I can say I have enjoyed and they are Dungeons and Dragons Online for the PC [...]
In the two plus years that we’ve been doing these wrap-ups, whether just for the Virtual Console or for the entire service, just about every article has had a lot of comments about whatever the Virtual Console has put out. When we started profiling the other downloadable titles on the WiiWare and DSiWare, most of [...]
Glory of Heracles
Publisher: Nintendo of America
Developer: Paon /Studio Saizensen
Genre: Turn-Based RPG
Release Date: 01/19/2010
Everyone loves Hercules. Whether it’s the classical Greek and Roman myths themselves, the “sword and sandals” movies starring Steve Reeves, the TV show starring Kevin Sorbo, the 1997 Disney movie and following cartoon series, or the Marvel Comics character (preferably written by [...]
Sands of Destruction
Publisher: Sega
Developer: Image Epoch
Genre: Turn Based RPG
Release Date: 01/13/2010
Sands of Destruction is the first handheld RPG of 2010. You would think this would be a big deal, but oddly enough its publisher, Sega, who is a large company in its own right has been decidedly mum on the title. This is pretty [...]
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
Publisher: Nintendo
Developer: Nintendo
Genre: Action Adventure
Release Date: 12/07/2009
I didn’t grow up with The Legend of Zelda like many other lucky gamers. In fact, the only game I played before Ocarina of Time was Link’s Adventure, and that hardly counts because it is so different from the rest of the series. [...]
Foto Frenzy
Genre: Puzzle
Developer: Storm City Games
Publisher: Storm City Games
Release Date: 11/24/2009
I’m going to start out by saying that by no means am I a casual gamer. Quite the opposite actually. However, what I am is someone that does go to the bars. And one thing I notice in bars is that most of them have [...]
Mario and Luigi: Bowser’s Inside Story
Genre: Turn Based RPG
Developer: Alpha Dream
Publisher: Nintendo
Release Date: 09/14/2009
The best version of Nintendo’s famous plumbers over the last few years hasn’t involved Galaxies, Paper, or new versions of the old games. It isn’t Kart racing, sports playing, or anything else that Nintendo has managed to insert its mascot into. [...]
Press Your Luck 2010 Edition
Developer: Ludia Inc.
Publisher: Ubisoft
Genre: Trivia/Game Show
Release Date: 10/27/09
I’ll kick off this review with an admission: I’ve never seen the original show, due to the fact that I wasn’t even alive for much of its run (and would you look at that, I just dated myself). In fact, the closest brush [...]
