#oneaday Retro Review: Pokemon Red/Blue

It’s hard to imagine a world without Pokemon now, indeed the likes of Pikachu and his friends have become icons of the videogames industry and could probably even give Mario a run for his money in regards to brand notability. The biggest criticism aimed at the Pokemon games is that they’ve remained the same throughout [...]

#oneaday “5 reasons why the PSP2 won’t succeed”? how about why I still want one?

So, thanks to someone I follow on Tumblr I read this earlier, and all I can think is “Haters are gonna hate”. It’s widely believed that the PSP was a commercial failure, and why? Because it didn’t beat the DS and because software sales in the US and Europe dried up. There’s a couple of [...]

#oneaday “Games of 2010?”

Okay, stereotypical blog entry from a gamer I know, meh, whatever. Anyway, its crazy mad to think yet another 12 months in my lifetime have passed, and as always its gone far too quickly.
