Trendy January iPad Games

Trendy January iPad Games By: Chris Avila

WILMINGTON, DE – This January many new games have hit iTunes’ top charts. Most notably, Blockheads and Temple Run 2.
The new game Blockheads, is eerily similar to the extremely popular PC and iPad game Minecraft. The creator, David Frampton, said he had no intention of making a Minecraft copy.

“It wasn’t my intention to make a Minecraft-like game,” said Frampton in an interview with Pocket Gamer. “When I first started on The Blockheads, I intended it to be a game about evolution. Later, I decided to base it on people instead of animals so they could interact more with the world. And as a result, it drifted more towards Minecraft.”

Even though the games are very similar, Blockheads is just a poor man’s version of Minecraft

The Original Temple Run was one of the most successful games ever (in tersm of downloads) across the iTunes and Android markets, with over 170 million downloads. Now, Temple Run 2 has been released. In my opinion, it has 100% better graphics and has new features. Unlike most other games, movies and books that have a sequel, I think that Temple Run 2 will be just as successful as its older counterpart.

Game Review – NBA 2K13

NBA 2K13 Game Review

By: Adam Barksdale, Will Lock and Max Krinsky

NBA 2K13 is a great game because it has better graphics, and the skills of the players are more realistic than ever! You can play online with friends or against someone at random around the world. There is a feature called “My Player” which allows you to create your own NBA player and have him declare for the draft out of college, get drafted, and play out an entire season. That feature is very cool because you can choose which team you would like to play on. The dunk contest is probably one of the best features there are so far in NBA 2K13. However, to be able to play the dunk contest you need to pre-order the game NBA 2K13. The dunk contest requires some gaming skill; you get to dunk as any pro player you want to versus any player you want to face. You have the option to do the most cool and creative dunks, and to make the dunk you have to hit all of the buttons on the controller that it tells you to really fast. This game is a must GET!
