Columns by Sprite Monkey on
Toki Tori is a great puzzle game, and it's a HUGE upgrade from the original on the Game Boy Color. Lots of puzzles, good use of the Wiimote, great audio, and very worth the price if you like puzzle games.

Reviews by Sprite Monkey on
Growing up, I was a big fan of the Indiana Jones TRILOGY. That's right, I say TRILOGY, because I vehemently refuse to admit that Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is anything other than the shameless beati

WiiWare Review (May 2008)
Columns by Sprite Monkey on
A fun little game where you pick up stick figures and bash the crap out of them to prevent them from destroying your castle. It's a little boring and repetitive, but I found the multiplayer to be rather enjoyable with a couple of friends. If you're rationing points, it's not what I would call a priority buy, but it's certainly a good time waster if you're not willing to play a free version on the Web.

Are You Game?: Xbox 360
Columns by Sprite Monkey on
The Xbox 360 has been alive and kicking for over two years now since November 2005. Yes, it's really been that long. That’s a lot of titles, and there have been more than a couple of misfires. It happens, but the key to life is knowing when not to step on a landmine, or, in this case, when not to drop your hard-earned cash on a developer’s sorry ass attempt at entertaining you (or a console that has a replacement rate higher than 16+%). So this article is for you. Here are the top ten Xbox 360 games since the console was released. This is your guide to cutting the crap and sticking to the pure essentials before you know full well what a "red ring of death" truly means. This is the measure of your game-itude, as all 10 of these titles should be on your shelf with no exceptions. Unless you have no thumbs—I guess that’s an exception.
