Released for the Wii this past May was a remake of Namco Bandai’s classic 1997 Playstation side-scroller Klonoa. I had heard lots of good things about this game before I got a chance to play it, but I really had no idea what to expect going into it. Well I’d like to thank Namco Bandai for providing me a copy, because it was a blast to play. Klonoa is not your standard 2d side-scroller as it has some really cool design features that keep your gaming experience enjoyable.
Namco-Bandai, since when do you make Japanese role-playing games? While I certainly appreciate you sending me a copy of your new game Magna Carta 2 to review, I have to admit, I was initially pretty skeptical going into it.
Do you have what it takes to make a good JRPG? Well after playing it, the answer most certainly is yes. Magna Carta 2 is phenomenal. Combining elements of World of Warcraft, Infinite Undiscovery, and Star Ocean: The Last Hope, I’d say you’ve got it all!

Holy space time continuum Batman! Someone decided to destroy all rules and put a video game in the most dastardly place of all time. Where in Tom’s name is that you ask?
The most obvious place of ever, in video games themselves. As if you needed another game to bide your time with while already playing a game. Well, to each there own, I suppose.
Honestly, there are more games inside of video games than most of us realize. Rockstar, for instance, is notorious for placing bland satirical cabinet games inside of their controversial endeavors.
Spider-man! Spider-man! Does whatever a spider can! Like piloting giant robots to fight space monsters. Wait, what?!?

In a continued effort to screw over Wii owners by making games they don’t want to play (Ninjabread Man and Dewy’s Adventure, I’m looking at you!), Konami has revealed the Wii-exclusive Castlevania Judgment, a 3D fighter in the vein of the Soul Calibur series. The title will feature countless characters from the Castlevania universe, such as Alucard and Simon Belmont, duking it out in Gothic cathedrals and dilapidated clock towers with all manner of weapons, from whips to boomerangs to throwing knives. If you find yourself weeping in disappointment and piling on black eyeliner while listening to The Cure, you’re not alone.
