King Of Fighters Orochi Collection
Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 by christianIf anyone reading knew that this game was out, give yourself a pat on the back. Once again, SNK Playmore USA serves up some fan favorite 2d fighters.

Retrospective - Phoenix Wright
Tuesday, October 21st, 2008 by christianI rented Phoenix Wright from Gamefly sometime last month.
