'Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance'
Dark Alliance is another Dungeons and Dragons game for the GBA. I believe there is another version of this game for the PS2 as well, but I’ve never played it. All the Dungeon and Dragons video games have a special appeal to me; it may be because they are based on a very rich and intricate world originally created by Gary Gigax and Dave Arneson. Maybe, it’s just because I was a DnD dork playing throughout high school. I don’t know…at any rate, Dark Alliance is a pretty good game.

5 Game Boy Games You Don't Need to Play
The Game Boy was Nintendo's first handheld game console to hit the stores. Released in 1989, it boasted a rather strange library. Many games were remakes of games available on the NES, but some were games created exclusively for the Game Boy. None of the remakes for the original Game Boy were as good as their NES counterparts, but many of the other games were fun…in small spurts.

Celebrate 'Pokemon Go' with This Awesome Metal 'Pokemon' Theme Song Cover
There is a Pokemon craze going on at the moment, all powered by the newly released Pokemon GO. However, back in the 90s there was another Pokemon craze. There were video games, plushies, backpacks, stickers, clothes, and of course the anime/cartoon. If you were a kid growing up in the 90s, not only did you know all of the names of the original Pokemon, you also knew all the words to the cartoon's theme song.

'Pokemon Go' Not Friendly for Rural Gamers
I admit it - I was not too excited for Pokemon GO when I heard about Niantic, Inc. working on the game. It's not that I don't think Niantic is a cool company, just the opposite. They're doing great things and trying to get people out into the world to explore where they live. Unfortunately, where you live has a great deal to do with how their games play out. I played Ingress for awhile, and LOVED it. That is, until I was actually having to schedule when to make the drive to town to play the game.

Why My Kids Are Getting Pokémon Sun and Moon for Christmas
When I was a child, there was no more magical time than Christmas. I would wake up before the rising sun, rush downstairs, and stare in awe at the bounty of gifts below the glittering lights adorning the tree in the living room. It wouldn’t matter what the gifts were, and some years were leaner than others, but I will always remember that feeling of seeing presents where there were none the night before. One of the best gifts I received was actually a dual gift for me and my brother that we absolutely loved and played with obsessively for a long time – Pokémon Red and Blue.

The 10 Pokemon Games You Haven't Played — But Need To
The Pokemon phenomenon started in Japan in 1996 (North America wasn't until 1998), and the world hasn't stopped wanting to become the greatest Pokemon trainer since. The Pokemon world tends to be a vibrant, colorful place full of hopes and dreams and the ever-present unusual animals based off zoology and folklore. If you're anything like me, you've probably spent hundreds of hours wandering the digital wilderness of the Pokemon games looking to fight, capture and train a wide assortment of Pocket Monsters.

Pokemon GO has started to enrol across selected countries and gamers are already out in the open space trying to track down the hidden characters.
