Whether players are working up a sweat with Wreckateer, a title which combines two casual game darlings- Angry Birds and the Kinect Sensor, or burning calories with Adidas MiCoach, this week’s new releases offer a number of ways to put the hurt of flabbiness. Coupled by two new PS Vita downloads, there’s little reason why gamers need to be quiescent, unless they prefer to play PC ports of overlooked console titles, such as Inversion or Prototype 2.
“After over 10 years since its initial release, it's impressive how well Wizorb has held up in all of its awesomely retro glory. For a simple Breakout experience, you can't get much better than this so I recommend it to anyone who enjoys breaking bricks.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Inversion launched 10 years ago today, but failed to leave a lasting impact on the third-person action genre.
I keep a very fond memory of the game. The story is very surprising, with an incredible twist towards the end (and I mean : incredible). Playing solo on hard was actually very hard. One of my best memories of a TPS from that generation.
I remember playing it, back when I was using gamestop as my personal gamefly service. I don't remember the story at all, just that the world would shift. The shooting was really decent for that type of game back then too.
This game was surprisingly awesome. I miss blowing enemies into pieces in video games.
I think the concept is what did this game in.
When most people play games and they come across upside down levels, reverse controls, or anything that breaks convention, they normally groan.
I myself am guilty of that too so. So to have an entire game built around that very concept probably wasn't the best idea.

Games can therefore be a powerful tool for helping those with depression and anxiety to feel seen and validated. Moreover, they can also be useful demonstrations for those who don’t know what living with these illnesses is like."
Not saying these all look amazing, but definitely better than Depression Quest
FYI: Adding game links crashed N4G.
Ok, seems to be working. Forget it!
Wonder how Foosball controls.
Considering Inversion dropped to $20 on console I'm curious as to how much the PC version will be.
WizOrb for me.
