The story here is simple.

Alice in Wonderland (Wii) Review

When it comes to movie-based games, I try to get away from them as much as possible due to the fact that most of them suck. The last movie-based title that I played was Toy Story 2 and that was released on the PSOne back in 1999. Sure, I loved it because I was a fan of Buzz Lightyear during those years. Now that I'm in my twenties, I gave myself a try for another Disney movie based game; this time it's Alice in Wonderland.

Dead Space Extraction Review

EA’s new IP Dead Space was easily one of the best games of 2008, so when it was announced that we’d soon be getting another game in the series, obviously people were excited.

Muramasa: The Demon Blade Review

Overall Muramasa: The Demon Blade is a satisfying experience and a must buy for any action or RPG junky looking for a Wii fix. Most likely, if you’re into those types of games, you probably have more than a Wii already, but still Muramasa is a diamond in the rough.

While it may not be the most in-depth RPG, it’s easily one of the best on the system.
