Game review based on: demo
Game available for: News

Wolverine on EVERYTHING… and some other stuff too!

Xbox 360

Velvet Assassin – Hmmm…

X-Men Origins: Wolverine – X-Men movie tie in games have been pretty lame, but I’ve heard a bit of buzz for this one. I’ll have to download the demo and give it a shot.

Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection Demo – I’ve got and highly recommend the full version of this game to everyone. I’m surprised the demo came out at least a month after the full game came out. I could see it as a last ditch effort to boost sales, but I’ve heard that this game actually sold very well. I can’t imagine what the demo actually is though. Perhaps it’s a time trial of a couple of the 40 genesis games.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine Demo

UP The Video Game Demo

Battlestations: Pacific Demo

Bionic Commando Multiplayer Demo: – This I’ll have to check out!

XBLA

Sorry! (Hasbro Family Game Night) – Lame…

Cyber Troopers Virtual On Oratorio Tangram – Such a great game, already available on the DC and PS2 but if you couldn’t get it then now’s the time!

Banjo-Tooie – If you liked Banjo 1….

PS3

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

PSN

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 – Read my review here!

Wii

Fantasy Aquarium World – More shovelware…

My Horse and Me: Riding for Gold

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

PlayStation 2

Backyard Baseball 2010

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

PSP

Dynasty Warriors: Stikeforce

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Patapon 2 Demo – As a collector, I’m disappointed that this game is only available as a digital download. Like other collectors I’ll have to import the EU version. But I can understand the reasoning. The UMD drive is a pain in the ass, testing the waters for more digital download only games makes sense. The business decision to also sell empty boxes with download codes in stores though is just plain retarded.

DS

Elite Forces: Unit 77

Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier

X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Nintendo DSiWare

Clubhouse Games Express: Card Classics – meh

Paper Airplane Chase – meh

WiiWare

Cocoto Platform Jumper – meh

Virtual Console

Nobunaga’s Ambition – I never got into any of the strategy games this far back. Pretty much for the hardcore, retro strategy players only. If you like stuff like Romance of the Three Kingdoms, or last weeks release of Uncharted Waters, then it’s probably for you.
