• Versus Mode: WarioWare vs. WarioWare

    The main differences between these two games are quite easy to grasp, unless you're the type of person that can't grasp why "gay" doesn't make sense as an insult (i.e., as good ol' J.R. would say, you're not the sharpest knife in the drawer): Mega MicroGame$ is for the Game Boy Advance, and its focus is on single player action; Mega Party Game$ is for the GameCube, and its focus is on multiplayer action.

    Dear Readers: LUE Reaction

    I received a very unexpected reaction to my Dear Readers column last month (though, mostly via "invaders" from the GameFaqs board "Life, the Universe, and Everything").

I'm sure there must be some among you who, like me, spend days at a time on the couch watching nothing but Richard Dawson and Charles Nelson Riley yucking it up on the Match Game. I'm also sure that there are some out there who say that all games based on game shows a crappy. To those people, I say: "Oh YEAH?? Well your FACE is crappy!!!". There are many titles based on game shows in my massive collection, and rather than do a Jeopardy! vs. Family Feud feature (as was my original intention), I thought I'd take a page out of Kevin Leacock's playbook and just pit them all against one another to see which is the best.
