iPhone Game Screenshots: Cooking Mama Lite

Cooking Mama Lite is not a bad game, but I prefer playing it on my Wii instead. The iPhone version does at least have good graphics and good controls such as moving the iPhone to butter the pan. Overall it is a good game and I might consider buying the full version if I did not already own a version in the series.

iPhone Game Screenshots: 3D Chess

My brother downloaded this game to my iPhone about a month ago. I tried it once and was just frustrated by it. Sure it can be frustrating due to opponent difficulty, but that is not it. I just found it hard to tell what piece was what since they do not look normal and the whole tapping the right piece is not the easiest thing to do on such a small screen. I actually think a 2D version is the only way to go on a small screen.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Rock Band 2

I have been playing Rock Band 2 on the Xbox 360 for months, but it is annoying to have to go play at my parent's house on my brother's system. I plan to eventually get it for the Wii for my house, but for now I got the guitar and game for playing it at my mom's apartment since I have no good games there except Wii Sports. I really love Rock Band 2 for the Wii, especially the ease of doing the online battle of the bands, which I have never tried on the Xbox 360 because my brother still has not gotten around to getting his system connected to the Internet.

Nintendo DS Screenshots: Cake Mania

I got Cake Mania as a used game a few months ago as a game to play on my summer road trip. It has turned out to be a fun game to play. I like the fast paced serving customers games and this is one of the best. I like that you bake the cakes and decorate them as the customers wish. Overall a game that provides hours of fun in my opinion, although some may find it repetitive, but I love this game.

Nintendo DS Screenshots: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I bought this game about a week ago. I really tried to give it a chance, but it just got worse and worse. From the start it seemed full of tedious tasks with little to do with Harry Potter Book 6 and probably not the movie either. There is also some horrible inaccuracies, such as Luna unpetrifing Harry on the train instead of Tonks. Read my more in depth review on my Harry Potter blog here.
