The shmup lives on, questionable pricing notwithstanding, in this newest installment in the classic arcade series.

Space combat pilots, take note; you have a new mission coming to a PC near you in the form of Dark Horizon. Featuring all of the action, a helping of RPG, and a good story, Dark Horizon is one to consider.

Last year, iD released a new Quake game for the PC in the form of Enemy Territory – Quake Wars. This multiplayer focused Quake offering in the spirit of the Battlefield games (two sides, complete with Classes), received some pretty solid review scores and now, about eight months later, the journey to the Xbox 360 and PS3 is complete. Is this conversion what console fans have been waiting for? Well, that depends entirely on what they're expecting, and how much they know about the PC version.

Who doesn’t hate terrorism? In a play to the American masses, Konami takes us on a journey back to the days of Area 51 and Lethal Enforcers with its release of Target: Terror! for the Nintendo Wii. Through the use of the Wii-mote’s pointer technology, the game attempts to recreate the experience of the arcade. There’s just one problem: the game itself is almost as scary as the terrorists in it.

I recently got a handful of new DS games to review, and of the bunch I have to say my favorite is Time Ace. While not a great game, it is actually quite addictive and fun. Time Ace puts the player in the role of Dr. Clock. In 1914, Dr. Clock creates a time machine with good intentions. His jealous and devious assistant Scythe, however, has other plans when he steals the time machine with the intention of gathering all the powerful weapons from the future and becoming the ruler of humanity. Dr. Clock is able to create another time device that he mounts to his modified bi-plane, as well as a temporal tracking device (to know where Scythe is in time of course) and begins his (nineteen) mission hunt to stop the evil bastard.
