Take a look back at the last generation of video games with Mat, Jett, and myself! What were the best games on the Wii, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3? What…
With literally thousands of video games out there begging for your time and money, it can be more than daunting finding a starting point for a growing collection.

You may have thought the Game Hunter was over, but you'd be wrong! I'm back and with a brand new episode that beginning collectors should find useful. When you think…
Mario and Donkey Kong.
Two names synonomous with video games that have been around since before many gamers can even remember. Whether it’s Donkey Kong running through a jungle, Mario jumping over barrels, or the two of them racing go-karts, the Nintendo mascots have been locked in competition since the beginning of the Japanese game company’s storied history.
Since the release of 1981’s arcade classic title Donkey Kong, an oversized gorilla and an Italian plumber have been going at it for decades. Let’s take a look back at each and every video game featuring the duo going head-to-head. (more…)
Mario Party 9 was a pretty fun game. I’ve missed out on most of the series, but I was happy to be able to play and review this one. To be honest though, much of the game is eerily similar to the first game in the series, and by that I mean it’s a heck of a lot of fun with friends! While playing with my girlfriend, I decided to record some gameplay. Here is the resulting montage of Mario madness. Enjoy!
What a guy! Nintendo’s portly plumber has saved the Mushroom Kingdom dozens of times, rescued Princess Peach whenever she was in peril, and even let his brother share the limelight every once in awhile, and now he’s throwing yet another massive party for all to attend!
Mario Party 9 is the first game in the series to come out in over five years and mixes up the formula quite a bit, without sacrificing the core Mario Party feel. If you’re looking for a reason to turn on your Wii, this is the best excuse since Skyward Sword.
Another week full of work and no play. Alas, I wasn’t able to play much at all this week thanks to a lot of work (which is still nice, I guess). Thankfully,Mario Party 9 has fallen into my possession, and it’s been keeping me fairly entertained.
