Sin and Punishment 2 Review by NonCon

Posted in NonCon, Reviews, Wii on November 20th, 2009

Sin and Punishment 2 is to rail shooters what Super Mario Galaxy is to 3D platformers. Perfection. It justifies my purchase of the Wii, makes amazing use of the Wiimote, and is my Game of the Year 2009. (5/5)

Viewtiful Joe Review by NonCon

Posted in GameCube, NonCon, Playstation 2, Reviews on November 13th, 2009

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 Review by Mirai

Posted in Mirai, Playstation 3, Reviews, Xbox 360 on November 6th, 2009

In a nutshell: There’s so little to say about Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2, I had to resort to a gimmick to being able to finish this review. I hope you’re all happy! It’s not a bad game but beatemups require co-op, something I didn’t have available, and the writing was so bad I didn’t have a particular preference one way or the other. (2/5)

Persona PSP Review by NonCon

Posted in NonCon, PSP, Reviews on November 6th, 2009

In a nutshell: Persona PSP is nothing more, or less, than a translation of a port with some new music and cutscenes. It still has everything that was right with the original, and sadly everything that was wrong as well. (2/5)
