Lost In Shadow Nintendo Wii Game Review

The Nintendo Wii was definitely the stand-out console of 2010 when you look back at the exclusive titles released for the system, this has continued into 2011 with the release of "Lost In Shadow" an inventive and unique platformer that follows the shadow of a boy and it's journey up a tower to be reunited with it's master. If you have played ICO and Limbo, think of what a mixture of those two games would produce and that's what to expect here.

The simple, yet genius idea of how light and shadow interact is the concept that makes Lost in Shadow such a unique platforming experience. Sometimes the complex level design and difficulty can get in the way of what is truly a wonderful game, however the solid gameplay and fantastic art direction make this one of the games not to miss out on in 2011.

Fluidity Game Review

Fluidity is one of the more unique and creative titles to hit WiiWare this year. You play as a body of water, however you don't control this protagonist directly, you help guide and move the water around some delightfully visually impressive worlds by rotating the environment. The game is not a new idea, i still remember playing hand held versions of this concept as a child, but it's refreshing, fun, and a great way to spend a few hours of your day.

Disney Epic Mickey Game Review

Mickey Mouse was once an icon loved by all, he was in countless animated films and shorts, even some great video games. His fall from grace has seen his reputation slowly taken away from him, he is no longer the household name which captured the hearts of everyone back in his early days. Mickey is more of a corporate symbol these days, rather than an actual character. He is on merchandise all over the world but he has been in fewer films and he has had a notable absence from the video game industry for quite a while now. It's a shame to see a once beloved character reduced to this, however, Disney Epic Mickey may just be his ticket back to the top.

In developing Disney Epic Mickey, Warren Spector and his newly-formed Junction Point team sought out to recapture the magical feeling Mickey used to portray. The game manages to show one thing above all else, Mickey is just as capable, if not more, at supporting a Pixar-like adventure which not only amazes us with it's spectacle and design but tugs at our heart with it's strong character development and remarkable love for Disney lore. While there is allot holding this game back from being a truly great game, the passion the developers clearly had while making this game is enough to provide us with an utterly brilliant story and some delightful nostalgic moments worth our money.
