Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword review

This is Ryu Hayabusa’s first outing on the Nintendo DS and I’ve been itching to play it ever since I saw footage of the interesting control method. You hold the DS like a book and draw on the screen to control the little Ninja. He follows where you drag the stylus and swipes and swooshes at his enemies when you draw through them. If you’ve ever played Zelda: Phantom Hourglass you’ll get into this straight away and this is actually great fun to play. Occasionally you’re left scribbling the screen like a teenager desperately trying to finish an exam before...

Nintendo DS Lite Limited Edition Pokemon Pack

Nintendo DS Lite Limited Edition Pokemon Pack

A super stylish new Nintendo DS Lite is heading our way – this special Onyx coloured edition is emblazoned with images of the rare Pokémon; Dialga and Palkia. In the special bundle you not only get the cool coloured DS Lite but a nice bundle of other extras: A never released animation special of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon on DVD. A special DS carrying case (also emblazoned with Dialga and Palkia). A nice mini poster. We reckon that’s not too bad for $129 – pity they couldn’t throw in a Pokemon game as well though.

Soul Bubbles

Soul Bubbles review

Soul Bubbles is a rather intriguing action puzzle game developed by a small unknown developer called Mekensleep and is published by Eidos. When a game tells you on its opening screen that it contains no Licensed Racing Cars, Post Apocalyptic Solders or Gang Fights – you know that something is different at work. In Soul Bubbles DS you take control of a Psychopomp or to put it a better way, a Spirit Herder. Your job is to guide spirits to the afterworld by traversing them through the level, all the while contained in a special protective bubble. You see the...

Guitar Hero On Tour

Guitar Hero On Tour review

It’s true that Guitar Hero is now a mammoth franchise and it’s been successful on every home platform. Now Activision want you to have a go at air guitar by letting you play Guitar Hero On Tour on the move on your DS. At first glance it looks like a cool idea. The game features all the core gameplay from the console version with a peripheral made specifically for the game – a grip that slots into your GBA port on your DS. You hold the DS as if it were a book and use your four fingers to press...
