The type of game that you expect from something titled “Tankz” is pretty obvious, and that’s just about all you get in this game. However, for this specific tank game, the in-depth development of the game is what makes it rise above others. Tankz is a challenging action-packed game that is bound to keep you concentrated for hours. More »

If you have a thing for penguins, you’ll probably enjoy this game. But in reality, you probably won’t because you’ll constantly see the penguins getting caught in traps, blown up by mines, and disoriented from many other objects in this game. Yetisports Penguin X Run gives you a crazy puzzle-type game, allowing you to save the penguins who seem to prefer the tropic weather as opposed to the arctic. More »

Seeing the name of this game brings back high school memories of playing the calculator game “Phoenix” on the TI-84 during class. When there was nothing else to do, it was often a good idea to start shooting down aliens with your spacecraft instead of homework. Phoenix revives that classic game by giving you higher end graphics and switching to a simple arcade-like game play, keeping this game one of the best and addicting choices you have when you need something to do.

Rapid fire missiles: Check. Six-pack: Check. Crazy looking alien monsters: Check. It seems that all is in place and ready to go, but I feel like something is missing. Missile Master brings you all the cool concepts and fantasies up front but doesn’t tell you what’s behind, a game that disappoints when you actually play it. More »

When you think of a tower defense, you usually think of a path that monsters take to try and take away your lives. Around that path you are usually told to place towers to kill those enemies before they reach the end. However, in Inkub, the normal tower defense game is crafted with a challenging twist, making it a fun, hard, and strategic game for the iDevice. More »

There was recently a craze that my friends and I had, which included playing Scrabble for hours on end. There we were with our mobile devices placing tiles next to each other to earn points. Little would we expect that there is the same game in the App store, but this time with an unexpected twist. Fuse Bomb adds a whole new level of challenge to the usual Scrabble game by giving us bombs, something that every Scrabble player wishes they could have in real life. More »

In my spare time, I like to save the world from clouds. But why? Well I wasn’t too sure either, something about the power going out if I didn’t, but in the end I decided to be nice and fly around in my helicopter to save humanity from doom anyways. That sounded good, but that’s about all there is to do in Sky Control: Air Team. More »

Have you ever thought about what it would be like if you were a cat that could jump ridiculously high? Well wait no further, Skycat and the starchildren will grant you that fantasy, giving you the power of reaching new heights in order to save your friend, who turns out to be a fatter cat that most likely won’t ever be able to jump as high as you.

Assault Commando is all its title suggests, a straight up action-packed shooter game. Assault Commando, although a little pricey for its quality, can prove to be something sufficient enough to waste your time with when you are tired of doing work. Your job is to find and bring justice to a drug lord, and the game is revolved around your journey to find him. To do this, you need to trek through the jungles on both foot and vehicle to destroy all that stands in your way. More »

Cow Attack. Just the title of the game has me curious as to what I’m getting myself into. Maybe something like a mass of cows charging at me in a tower defense type game? Or maybe a side-scrolling action RPG where I play the role of a hero/heroine cow ready to save the world? But to my surprise, it seems that I would end up bowling for milk, and I was extremely disappointed with the outcome of this game. More »

I’ve never been a big pool player myself, but Hot Shot Pool called for a change. I might not be able to pull the crazy hits I performed in-game in real life, but I can definitely say I’ve learned a lot from this game. Hot Shot Pool is a fun experience that I don’t think many other iDevice pool games can replicate. More »

Dear Diary,

It appears that Blizzard has updated their top 200 chart in North America again. It looks like some shifting around has been done, but the master still reigns supreme, and that is SeleCT. HuK definitely made a huge transition, however, and is now up to rank 2 in the charts. I definitely think they are deserving of that place up there. More »

Dear Diary,

Yeah ok so I’m a noob, and I didn’t really completely finish all the campaigns in the original Strarcraft. Lucky for me, Blizzard made the Starcraft II storyline understandable for just about anyone, even the newcomers to the Starcraft universe. The basic line up? More »

Dear Diary,

So as I was looking for a legit site for a ranking system for the top players in Starcraft II, little did I know I could have just checked the Battle.net site for Starcraft II. They updated this quite a while ago, and they will refresh the list with the current top players in the North America every week. This is a helpful tool in looking for who to watch on YouTube when it comes to watching match replays. Oddly I didn’t find LiquidTLO though on this list, then again he’s playing Zerg in most of the matches I watch, and in my opinion, Zerg just plainly suck in the new Starcraft II. Only one of the top 15 players choose Zerg as their race. More »

Dear Diary,

As I find it necessary, I continue to watch many different videos and replays of fights between many different top Starcraft II players, but today I take note of one of the best Protoss player in North America, number 14 to be exact, and that is HuK. Of course, the best way for me to learn to better my technique as a player is to watch from the pros, so I watched some replays involving HuK, but found this one extremely interesting. More »

Dear Diary,

So there’s something intense I’ve found out on the Starcraft II campaign, even more than the Armory and Mercenaries sections, and that is Research. I always resented the Research portion of my Science Fair projects, but I can tell you it is SO worth it in Starcraft II. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I’m going to discuss a peculiar feature of the Starcraft II campaign mode. A great asset in your story mode missions, these semi-upgrades can prove to be of good use. Whether its to get you out of a tight situation when your units aren’t being produced fast enough, or if its just to add more Pow! to your army, this military bonus is not something to be looked down upon. What I’m talking about is, the Mercenaries. More »

Dear Diary,

This is probably the most hilarious thing I have seen yet in Starcraft II. I didn’t notice it until part of the storyline in-game cinematics had the camera angle almost nearly focused on this entertaining object. It’s something so funny that the whole world should know about it. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I came across an unusual area of Starcraft II that I had not mentioned yet. It is part of the campaign for Starcraft II, located on the Battlecruiser you spend a lot of time on after the first few missions. It’s called the Armory, but in essence, it is an upgrade zone for your Terran units. More »

Dear Diary,

Today I decided to take a little time to watch some replays from some of the top gamers in Starcraft 2, and Blizzard RTS in general. Today I decided to watch matches that included MaDFroG, a well known RTS gamer in both Starcraft and Warcraft. Although the videos had commentary in French, gaming is a universal language, and just watching the players compete is enough to understand what they are doing. Here is the YouTube link for the first half of the session of Whitera (Protoss) vs MaDFroG (Zerg). More »
