Like with its predecessors, Family Game Night 3 brings together another fine collection of old school board games but with some new school flavor. The game includes Clue, Twister, Life, Yahtzee, and Mouse Trap. While the graphics are not exactly visually stunning, the game design gets the job done. The game has different modes allowing for you to play with party rules and custom setups, making sure hilarity ensues every time.

Family Game Night 2 for Wii Review
For some reason board games carry a bit of a stigma among the younger crowd. Try having a party, pull out a board game, and have a tween NOT roll their eyes at you. With this in mind the EA and Hasbro company has taken the classic board game experience to a new level with Wii Family Game Night 2. It’s actually pretty fun. Especially for kids. Games included are Bop it, Operation, Pictureka, Jenga, and Connect 4. There is also the “Family Game Show” that lets the family compete with quick short versions of all of the games.

Nerf N-Strike Elite for Wii Review
Rarely does a game come around that contradicts my initial judgments. Most of the time I’m able to look at the cover and instantly tell whether or not I’d find it enjoyable but that was not the case with Nerf N-Strike Elite for the Wii. This game surprised me with how fun it was and how eager I was to play it again and again.

Henry Hatsworth Nintendo DS Review
Henry Hatsworth is a mix of adventure, action, and puzzles. it is a great concept but falls short. The game is set in modern times with Henry Hatsworth and his nephew on the search for treasure, especially a magical hat that can bring anyone back into time to when Henry was a younger version of himself. At this point is when the adventure part of the game comes in and is split into two parts – the first part is the adventure and action part, this is set in classic Nintendo style, think vintage Super Mario Brothers. As Hatsworth you go through the board where you can jump, duck, and…
