Okay so maybe it’s not tic-tac-toe, and maybe it’s not strictly in a row, but it is at least three or more. Yes I’m talking about the dreaded Match-3 games! Yes this is my first Match-3 review. And also yes I may review more. Why are they dreaded? Well technically they’re not. It’s just there’s a lot of them. And people are making a lot of money off of them.

Space Journey – Tic-Tac-Toe, Three in a row!
Tuesday, March 10th, 2009(xblig) ZP2K9 – Zombies and Pirates and Guns, Oh my! – XBLCG
Monday, March 9th, 2009I’m not talking about some twisted version of the Wizard of Oz, although that would be supremely cool. I’m talking about ZP2K9. What is ZP2K9. you ask? Glad you asked that. ZP2K9. or Zombies verses Pirates 2009 by Ska Studios is a platform-scrolling, gun toting, zombie marching, pirate plundering, shoot-fest for XBox Live Community Games!
ZP2K9. is basically a death-match style 2d platform-scrolling shooter. You take on the role of the titular zombie or pirate and attempt to blast other players or bots (AI agents). That’s pretty much it. When you setup your player you can choose either the human team, or the zombie team. Each “team” has seven skins – A dude, a Ninja, a chick, a Pirate, a “crusader” or knight, a Viking, and a Samurai. There are three game types, single player, xbox live multiplayer, and system link multiplayer. Unfortunately I was only able to review the single player, and only 8 minutes at a time. But I believe this was enough.
Dyson – I think that I shall never see a poem lovely as a tree.
Friday, March 6th, 2009Well I don’t know much about trees, or poems about them. But there is a game written about a kind of tree called a Dyson tree. Just what is a Dyson tree you ask? Let’s call on our friend Wikipedia for an answer, shall we? According to Wikipedia, “A Dyson tree is a hypothetical genetically-engineered plant, (perhaps resembling a tree) capable of growing in a comet, suggested by the physicist Freeman Dyson.” Okay what does this have to do with games? Well our next game is called, you guessed it, Dyson!
