It’s possible that Boulder Dash XL’s release on Xbox Live passed by completely under your radar. With the release of Twisted Pixel’s Ms. Splosion Man and the upcoming Summer of Arcade promotion, this sequel/update of a classic 8-bit adventure didn’t take much effort to overlook. As is often the case though, the game with the least amount of hype can […]

Those of you who are regular readers of iTuesday probably noticed my absence during the last two weeks. The short version of this absence is that my regular day job gets pretty busy during this time of the year and I didn’t have time to devote to writing a high quality review. The problem is that during this time […]

Good satire is often timeless, even when the package it comes wrapped in is horribly dated and square according to current standards. Such is the case with this month’s double feature. Both Death Race 2000 (1975) and The Running Man (1987) contain social commentary that is eerily relevant to the events of today, despite several aesthetic trappings that root them […]

As I stared at the RedBox kiosk outside my local Walgreens, I glanced back down at my phone. The promotional code sent to me would be good for a free DVD rental, or as I have learned from past experience, a dollar off of a game rental. I glanced back up at the kiosk and thought to myself, “Well… it […]

Normally, the antics of this segment’s author, Eric, would adorn this iTuesday review, but alas, I have banished him to a eternity of darkness and pain! Actually, I think he went on vacation, but to be honest, it might as well be pain and darkness. This iTuesday’s review was played through the iPhone Game iFighter 1945 from Epicforce Entertainment, an homage to […]

Human beings have long wrestled with the distinction between justice and revenge. This is a debate that has raged on for centuries, and it continues to divide people to this day. Countless articles have been written about the efficacy of the death penalty, with some seeing it as a just punishment for those who have committed heinous crimes, while others […]

Board games made into video games are a weird breed. Often we play video games alone, even when we play with other people (that is to say we are alone in the room). Meanwhile, board games are typically social experiences, played with family and friends on a rainy day or as just a good old-fashioned time waster. As a result, […]
