The Odd Gentlemen Return With A Distinctively Different Music Puzzle Game
Way back in the golden days of 2010, small developer The Odd Gentlemen released a pie-collecting platform puzzler on Xbox Live Arcade and Steam called The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom. It was genius. Then The Odd Gentlemen disappeared into the mists, never to be seen again.
Double Dragon’s High-Def Throwback Headbutts Into Consoles In September
We’re circumspect that a console do-over of Double Dragon could have the same appeal as the quarter-sucking vacuum cleaner that lined arcade walls in the 1980s. The air-guitaring at a stage’s end seems to be a bit much. But Double Dragon Neon will get its shot anyway come Sept. 11. Majesco said the game releases that day on PlayStation Network and then Sept. 12 on Xbox Live Arcade. Price is $US9.99/800 Microsoft points.
As Promised, Here’s Me Looking Like An Idiot Playing NBA Baller Beats
We saved my weirdest E3 appointment for last — checking out the rhythm/sports hybrid NBA Baller Beats from Majesco and HB Games about four hours before my flight last Thursday. The teaser videos may have looked ridiculous, but some of that can be attributed to overacting and over-editing. How does this Kinect game look when someone is really trying to play it?
See This Blend Of Sports Skill And Dancing Rhythm? I’m Gonna Try That On Video

This NBA Kinect Game Is A Joke, Right? Right?
Majesco has tonight unveiled a teaser trailer for an upcoming game called NBA Baller Beats. It is… look, just watch the clip.
Marketplace Listing Accidentally Reveals More Scantily Clad Girl Fighters
An Xbox marketplace listing tipped off gaming website XBLA Fans today to the unintentional release of 20 new scandalous screenshots showcasing the fighters in Majesco’s Girl Fight.
Today’s Punishment: Camping Mama’s Sing-Along Trailer
Punishment was a concept I tried out in 2009 and it didn’t last long, because there weren’t enough mortifying, teeth-grating, or sickeningly sweet videos to publish one per week. But I thought of it when I saw this Camping Mama trailer. And you guys have gone a long time without saying your hail marios.

The Hidden Is The Lovechild Of Face Raiders And Ghostbusters
At first glance, The Hidden looks an awful lot like Face Raiders, one of the free augmented reality games pre-installed on every 3DS. Like Face Raiders, The Hiddenis a shooter that uses the 3DS’ camera to superimpose things for you to shoot in your real world environment, turning whatever room you’re in into a shooting gallery with ghosts coming in from all directions.
