The above video gives you a glimpse at Kyuuin a Japanese PlayStation 1 game that is getting a release next week on the PlayStation Network. The story seems to involve some kids saving a mythical book-world from evil with the...

Kyuiin sucks. It sucks because it's about a boy that flies on the back of a canister-style vacuum cleaner. Well, I take that back; it's not really about a boy that flies on the back of a canister-style vacuum cleaner. It's ab...

Ikaruga fans might be interested in this rather unashamed clone, Kyotokei. While it has a differing horizontal perspective and a more fantastical aesthetic, the games core mechanics are clearly derived from the Treasure Co. c...

Ever wanted to star in your own comic book? No? Liar. If you consider yourself a geek, chances are you've spent some more than just a brief hour or two daydreaming and wondering what it was like to be the hero. Or if you're m...

A new Bigpoint browser-based free-to-play MMO called Kultan: The World Beyond has entered open beta today. I'm not much of a F2P MMO (or any MMO) guy after the World of Warcraft closed beta ruined plenty of my exams back in ...

It's going to be tough to talk about Krunch without also mentioning games like Super Meat Boy or VVVVVV, so I'll get it out of the way now: Krunch is similar to these titles in that you will die. A lot. You will also, however...

What was that saying again? "When it rains, it pours"? The Android developer who released a game unwittingly starring Yoshi may have been able to cover his ass -- albeit barely -- but there is no way in hell that the mastermi...

Now here's a novel idea: imagine what it would be like to play a racing game where the very track you are riding across is procedurally generated in front of your vehicle by the person in the lead. That's the gist of Krautsc...

Fatshark's action-RPG Krater showed promise, but ultimately got bogged down by a number of flaws. It might be worth another look later this month when a sizable update containing support for cooperative play becomes available...

Hey, music nerds! You'll be interested to hear that Detune's reworking of the classic Korg M1 synth will be coming to the 3DS eShop this summer. The upcoming Korg M01D Music Workstation is essentially a mini music studio sui...

Everyone knows the name Ikaruga. Whether you've heard it uttered from your annoying shmup obsessed fan (probably me), or you've played it yourself on the Dreamcast, GameCube, or XBLA, Ikaruga has made itself a household name....

Knytt and Knytt Stories were both wonderful freeware platformers, especially when it came to the user-made levels for the latter. Developer Nifflas, Green Hill Studios, and Ripstone Publishing have announced a new game, Knytt...

I've been fiddling around with the mobile meta-RPG Knights of Pen & Paper for a wee while now. In fact, it's one of the few games I actually play on my phone, normally preferring dedicated handheld gaming devices rat...

Reviewing a game that you've already played in some other form is usually pretty easy. And to be honest, it's rarely ever quite as good the second time around. These days, with everything being ported and translated, the chan...

What's worse than an escort mission in a videogame? A videogame that is nothing but escort missions.  This is Knights Contract. A game in which your health meter is determined by a meandering, mentally subnormal woman wi...

When you play a certain videogame series or genre, it is sometimes expected that you will encounter some form of memorable videogame moment. If you are playing a Metal Gear Solid game, for instance, you know one of the boss b...

[Getting It Right is a monthly series in which I take a look at the elements that make up a classic game. What were the key ingredients that set it apart and make it hold up to this day? Read on to find out.] Did the 2D pla...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Kirby's Return to Dreamland cake pops! They're so cute!  Far too cute to eat, right?  I mean, I should freeze these forever and crawl into the freezer every night to hang out...

According to our own Jim Sterling, Kirby's Return to Dream Land belongs right up there among New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Donkey Kong Country Returns in the upper echelon of modern-day multi-player platformers. That's p...

Rejoice, Nintendo fans! One of the best pinball games of all time has been recently rated, and is probably set to hit the 3DS' Virtual Console at some point. Kirby's Pinball Land was not only one of the best portable pinball ...

When Kirby's Epic Yarn was announced, many people thought Nintendo was stringing us along, that the game would be poorly stitched together or otherwise patchy. A 2D platformer with a cute gimmick runs the risk of being threadbare, but it would appear that developer Good Feel has it all sewn up. You might worry that the bad yarn puns are a bit woolly, but I refuse to change my material.

With PAX now less than a week away, it's time to start planning your Prime experience. Sure there are panels, parties, and various city attractions to entertain and distract you, but have you considered setting a world record...

My love of Kirby is known far and wide. While the games themselves are incredibly simple, the sheer charm of the titular hero and his colorful world makes for endearing, unforgettable adventures. Kirby has also seen some of t...

As part of the Virtual Console 30th Anniversary promotion on the Wii U, Kirby's Adventure is $0.30 until May 16th. Although this classic NES title is available pretty much everywhere under the sun, including Kirby's Dream Col...

If you were a bit put off by how different Kirby's Epic Yarn was from the rest of the series, I think you're going to be happy with Kirby Wii (official title pending). The game takes the classic Kirby formula and adds four-p...

Finally, that little pink puffy character with the suction power of a Dyson will have his first adventure for the Wii in the style of the old school games. Sure, there was Kirby's Epic Yarn, but Kirby Wii (working title) is all about the consuming and gaining of new powers. I had the chance to to check out a few of the levels the other day and from what I played, Kirby Wii is looking really good.

I absolutely adored Kirby's Epic Yarn, but there's something very special about seeing Kirby going back to his classic style in a game that goes back to the series' roots. It also helps that Kirby's Return to Dreamland looks...

Kirby's Epic Yarn was a triumph, but there's no denying that Kirby's true home is on a handheld platform. It's where he debuted and it's where he's had his biggest adventures. Kirby Mass Attack brings Kirby home, both in term...

One might wonder if a game like Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning really needs a downloadable content expansion along the lines of "The Legend of Dead Kel," given the enormous amount of quests and content already available i...

The second piece of downloadable content in the Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning saga has arrived to further pad your already ridiculous list of quests. The previous DLC, "The Legend of Dead Kel," was a varied and fun adventure ...

You poor, poor gamer soul. It's getting late and you were just about to sign off and go to bed. Then you checked the new Monday Mind Teaser. You fool. It's no secret that this is one of the most addicting flash games ever mad...

EA says they'd love to see a Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning sequel despite rejecting the project in March, according to a source on the development team. EA labels President Frank Gibeau said he'd "love to be a partner for [a ...

No doubt some of you out there in Internet land have picked up the latest iteration of Kingdom Hearts for the 3DS, and are wondering what the heck the cards are for. Well, depending on which version you get, they're for unlocking rare Dream Eaters, which are basically the Pokémon of the Kingdom Hearts world. Read on for a simple explanation of how to unlock and utilize the AR content.

If there's anything that brings out the Veruca Salt in me, it's Japanese exclusives. The Kingdom Hearts 10th Anniversary Box will be no exception. The set, so far unconfirmed outside of Japan, includes three games: Kingdom He...

Publisher Square Enix revealed today that Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX will arrive on PlayStation 3 on September 10, filling the need for Kingdom Hearts and awesomely bad game titles in one swoop. Pre-orders will be treated to...

Kingdom Hearts fans are a long-suffering bunch. After feasting on the highly polished Kingdom Hearts II, they have had to make due with half-hearted gestures intended to tide them over until something significant could be pro...

I don't know what it is about Square Enix games, but they always feel like they cost too damn much. This is especially true of the handheld titles -- I refused to pick up Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy for $39.99, waiting instead...

It looks like the "US versus UK" Club Nintendo wars are about to enter another chapter, as our Euro friends are getting a chance to pony up 200 Stars for Kingdom Hearts 3D AR cards.The cards are actually just physical un...

Too soon? In Japan, Kingdom Hearts 3D launched to great first week success, but it looks like it may not have the staying power the series once had. Numbers wise, KH3D sold 213,579 copies the first week, but only 42,231 units...

A new lick of paint, a hearty dose of nostalgia, and not much else; these are the things fans have come to expect from high-definition re-releases of classic games. Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX is a little diffe...

More than any other videogame series, Sierra’s classic King’s Quest may be the one I hold most near and dear to my heart. Released during the golden age of adventure games (1984-1994), the seven main entries in th...

King's Bounty: Legions, like many social networking games, has by and large had little relevant exposure to the "hardcore" gaming community. It should come as no surprise that many of us who have grown up alongside the videog...

King Arthur: The Roleplaying Wargame was a really fun and interesting hybrid real-time strategy/turn-based strategy/role-playing game. It pulled a lot of good elements from these genres and it felt unique and it really stoo...

If there is one piece of Western mythology that has stood the test of time, it would be that of the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round. Whether it is Disney’s Sword in the Stone, Sean Connery in First Kn...

You look at a list of new PC releases. The list is populated by arcane words and you sense strong magic at work behind the somehow familiar titles. To your surprise, the list asks you in an inaudible voice, "Do you like tacti...

  I got rather caught up in the Arthurian legend when I was a mite, enough so that when I played King Arthur - The Roleplaying Wargame I was rather charmed by it. The real time battles were fun, the choose your own adven...

The boys of Rooster Teeth, makers of Red vs. Blue, decide to give 360 game Kinectimals: Now With Bears! a spin. Looks like the kind of game anyone can enjoy. Look at the cute tiger cubs! D'awwwww!

I like cats but I love bears. How could you not love those rounded ears, that fuzzy face and little nub tail? I've been known to talk to bears. At bookstores I'll flip through bear picture books like some kind of addict. At z...
