iPhone: Skee-Ball Review

God's favorite game! - According to Dogma.

• Game: Skee-Ball (v1.1)
• Developer: Freeverse, Inc.
• Price (at time of review): $0.99
• Release Date: 9/22/2009

Skee-Ball is one of the best games I’ve played on the iPhone. Skee-ball is not a game that has crossed my mind since the good ol’ days of Chuck E. Cheese, but this game makes me want to revisit my local Chuck E. Cheese like a creepy old guy (ie. Paul Reubens) and rock some skee-ball with God.

iPhone: SquareMaze Review

SquareMaze really utilizes the power of the iPhone!

• Game: SquareMaze (v1.0)
  
• Developer: iGecko
• Price (at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 8/19/2009

SquareMaze is a game where you try to move a box through a “maze” without touching any other object. It could have been a decent game, but it’s extremely short and it doesn’t help that the game is completely broken.

iPhone: ADoucheBag Review

 You my friend are a douche bag.

• App: ADoucheBag (v2.1)
  
• Developer: Arthur Anderson
• Price (at time of review): $0.99
• Release Date: 10/9/2009

ADoucheBag is an app that consists of a button and over a dozen different ways to say “you’re a douche bag.” If you’re honestly expecting more than that after reading the title, you’re definitely going to be disappointed. For those who enjoy a little stupidity every now and again, ADoucheBag is good for a laugh.

iPhone: USFlagTrophy Review

 Yay for more flags! Sorry, but how can I be witty when talking about flags?

• Game: USFlagTrophy (v1.0)
  
• Developer: CLAUDOT Studios
• Price (at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 7/19/2009

USFlagTrophy is the same game as FlagTrophy; it’s just confined to the fifty American states, as opposed to the entire world. Like FlagTrophy, USFlagTrophy is another good tool for learning flags and having fun at the same time, but its lack of variety hurts replayability.

Gaming Fleshlight: A Portable NES Cartridge

This is amazing. Nothing more needs to be said.

This may be the greatest portable system ever created, though the SEGA Nomad is hard to beat (boy was that convenient /end sarcasm). Some awesome person has apparently decided to take an NES cartridge, fuse it with an NES controller, and install a portable media player inside this beautiful freak of nature.

iPhone: FlagTrophy Review

 I've got nothing, but flag does rhyme with dag...which is Pikey for dog.

• Game: FlagTrophy (v1.1)
  
• Developer: CLAUDOT Studios
• Price (at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 7/15/2009

FlagTrophy is a great game for anyone interested in learning what flag belongs to what country, or for those wishing to test their knowledge. It features a decent challenge and can be fun for those with a curious mind, but it’s not without issues.

iPhone: Board Games !!! Review

 The equivalent to your local Walgreens board game mega pack

• Game: Board Games !!! (v1.0.2)
  
• Developer: Samir
• Price (at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 10/1/2009

Board Games !!! is a collection of nine different board games including checkers, chess, and othello.  The board games are either hit or miss in functionality and the difficulty level is very inconsistent. The production value is very low and it really shows when you dive head first into the game.

iPhone: FunFun DrawPoker Review

It's 5-card draw; nothing more, nothing less...

• Game: FunFun DrawPoker (v2.1)
  
• Developer: funfun software
• Price (at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 7/4/2009

FunFun DrawPoker is a perfectly adequate poker game for anyone who just wants to play poker without complication. It may not feature many bells or whistles, but what do you expect from a free game? That being said, it does what it needs to do and that will likely be enough for most casual poker fans.

iPhone: 3D Checkers Review

It may not look too bad, but looks are often deceiving.

• Game: 3D Checkers (v2.0)
  
• Developer: koduco
• Price(at time of review): Free
• Release Date: 9/12/2009

Checkers isn’t the most complicated game, but that doesn’t make it an easy game to create in video game form. 3D Checkers has potential; it looks good and has a fairly nice presentation. Sadly the game features dumb AI and unresponsive controls.

The PSP Go: Now an Even Bigger Rip-off

Kaz Hirai is currently thinking about how he can screw every PSP owner even more!

Just when you thought the PSP Go couldn't get any worse, Sony decides to add another kick to the balls. It seems that there will be no UMD transfer program for all those early supporters of the PSP. That means that every single UMD is essentially worthless now. I must thank Sony for giving me yet another reason to never buy a PSP Go.
