News::Where is my Heart? Review | CheatMasters

Avoiderdragon: Its a bit odd seeing some games that were released for one platform would then be put out for other platforms years later. Doing so days or months later is common enough, but years later is a rarer occurrence with some interesting results. It lets more people play that game, and it also kind of serves as a reminder that it exists somewhere. Those who have played it before can now tell those who are about to on what they should expect from it, which could be either a good or bad thing.

News::[NSFW] Armored Warrior Iris Review: Intro to Hentai?

Armored Warrior Iris, originally by Black Lilith, translated by MangaGamer, is a visual novel about a woman, trained to be a warrior, who, after a firefight during a mission her organization sent her on that almost kills her, is captured by a group of scavengers, put up on the slave market of the planet of Left, in a town where slave trade is legal, and sold to a brothel run by a guy that looks like a Hutt. On the surface, it is a unique novel in a number of ways, the primary ones being that it is a nukige told from the point of view of a female protagonist, as well as the fact that the protagonists face is shown every time she talks, which is uncommon for any subgenre of visual novel.

News::Lovely Planet Review | GIZORAMA

Tim Allen, GIZORAMA - "Were now at the point in gaming as a medium where we can begin to cannibalize our own past. Enough time has been spent with enough genres where we can now start releasing titles with primitive enough graphics and abstract settings and just expect you to know how they work. Lets take VVVVV for an example great game, but abstract and difficult enough to the point where youll really only appreciate it after suffering through years of platform/puzzle games. As a big fan of most shooters from before about 2005 or so, I had long waited for something similar to happen to the FPS. Last years Rise of the Triad came close but wasnt quite what I needed. This game has finally arrived, but I couldnt have expected it to look so much like Katamary Damacy. Lovely Planet is exactly that game, and I couldnt be happier. The debut project from presumably Japanese developer Quicktequila Games, Lovely Planet betrays its adorable art style with some super intense old-sch...

Carl Williams writes, "When you say there is a new horror game available, most people will ask what did Capcom name this one. There are not a lot of horror titles that really stand out any more.

This isnt something totally new to racing games, but the scale they were talking about had never been done before and I had my doubts. I have to say that after putting a few hours into the PC beta, I am convinced."
