Angry Birds Space For iOS Review

Hello Gamers!
Our favorite birds, the Angry Birds sling into outer space in their new game, Angry Birds Space! Yes, the birds are in space ready to orbit when they face those same old green pigs. As usual, the pigs are lurking in wooden and stone structures that must be destroyed by catapulting the birds at them when some pigs may be in bubbles.



The game includes 60 levels split into two zones: Pig Bang and Cold Cuts. A further 30 levels are available in something called the Danger Zone, unlocked with an additional 69p in-app purchase. Rovio says to have more levels in the upcoming updates.



The setting isn't just for entertainment purposes only. With the planet's zero gravity it can effect your strategy. But, when you try to sling your birds, their is an imaginary line to show where your bird is going to land. That feature makes it a bit easier for the players that are confused with the zero gravity.



There are new birds, too. A blue, square Ice Bomb Bird freezes the scenery and pigs, setting them up to be smashed by the next projectile. Meanwhile, the green Monster Bird is heavier than his peers, while the Super Red Bird has more of a grenade effect, triggered by tapping him.



Yes, all three will be sold as plush toys in the near future.

But, many critics have complained about crashes on older iOS devices. Plus, the Space Eagle prices are just ridiculous. Overall, Angry Birds Space is a great addition to the App Store and the Angry Birds series.

Kid Icarus: Uprising For The Nintendo 3DS Review

Hello Gamers!
One of Nintendo's most successful franchise, Kid Icarus, soars into action when Pit comes to the Nintendo 3DS in his newest game, Kid Icarus: Uprising. With Pit featuring in not to many game, Pit was known for his chaos he brought in the Super Smash Bros. Brawl world. The Kid Icarus series is technically 25 years old. The Kid Icarus franchise hasn't made a game featuring Nintendo's angel for about 20 years now. Uprising refreshes our minds about how Pit was important for our moments of boredom and most importantly, the Nintendo franchise. Nintendo is still continuing on keeping all time Nintendo favorites come to the 3DS with releases of Super Mario 3D Land and some rumors of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.







Like every Kid Icarus game, Pit has to save the Goddess of Light, Palutena. And try to survive Medusa. prising's airborne and ground-based gameplay settings are significantly different experiences, not only in concept but control. With Pit's angel wings and the 3D screen, it almost makes you see the world through Pit's eyes. Overall, Nintendo was smart enough to make Pit come to the 3DS with upcoming favorites such as Link that may come to the 3DS world.
