Fighting games have been a part of gaming since the days of Karateka, with each new generation of hardware comes some form of an update to the classic formula.

Review: Tetris Blitz on Android (Get Tetrisized All Over Again)
May 24th, 2013 triverse Anyone that was a gamer from the early 80′s onward probably remembers when Tetris was released on the original Game Boy (the pea salad green screen version).

Review: Fate of the Pharaoh on the JXD S7300 Android Tablet (Strategize Like an Egyptian)
May 19th, 2013 triverse Time management games are all the rage with Android and iOS gamers, sure this type of game started on PC’s but it has hit its stride with portables.

Review: Globulous on the JXD S7300 Android Tablet (Tetrisphere Tribute)
May 18th, 2013 triverse Tetris, the game that probably is the biggest reason, at least entertainment wise, for the Soviet Union to be kept running as long as it was able to (Alexey Pajitnov, creator of Tetris, was not the recipient of the royalties earned from the phenomenal sales- the Soviet government was). No matter though as a few [...]
Review: Dungeon Hunter 4 on JXD S7300 Android Tablet
April 18th, 2013 triverse Gameloft is catching quite a bit of flack over the in app purchases situation but honestly, it is not going anywhere anytime soon and it does allow pretty cool games like this to be accessible for more players that are either broke or are simply cheap.

New Endless Runner, Le Vamp, Bites Into the iTunes App Store
March 19th, 2013 triverse Endless running games are a genre that is not going to go away anytime soon, certainly not 2D ones, which started this genre off awhile back. High Voltage Software have thrown their hat onto the path with Le Vamp, not just another endless runner though, but something slightly different. Maybe different enough to warrant a [...]
