Max Payne is a game released in 2001 by Remedy Entertainment that was heavily influenced by film-noir and graphic novels with the unique novelty of bullet-time. This game was well received by fans and critics alike. For full disclosure, I still have my Max Payne mouse-pad that came with the first game. Later in 2001, the franchise was bought by Take-Two Interactive but that didn’t stop Remedy from releasing the sequel in 2003. Max Payne 2 was once again loved by fans and critics alike but didn’t hit the sale expectations they desired. In 2008, the franchise made its way over to the big-screen but did not live up to the expectations of fans or critics. But now, almost a decade after the last game-entry of the series, Max Payne 3 has been released. Remedy and the series have officially parted ways and the game was made by Rockstar Games. Despite the transfer, Rockstar has a fantastic pedigree. They are the developers behind games such as Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption. They definitely know how to make their games and tell a story but this series has a special place in many hearts, can they do right by Max?

Pokémon Conquest – Review (DS)
Pokémon Conquest comes out at an odd time, when the DS has mostly been left abandoned in favor of the new 3DS system and during the usual summer draught where good games are few and far between. While it’s not a 3DS game per say, the 3DS still holds it’s backwards compatibility so anyone with a Nintendo handheld system made in the last 8 years has something that should be able to play this though you won’t get any of the advantages from owning a brand new shiny system here. Now the question begs, is it worth getting a game made for last generation hardware in the era of 3D or does Pokemon Conquest have a big enough bag of tricks for you jump in anyway.
