The great thing about game mascots with cat faces is that anyone can make them at home, using toilet rolls, pipe cleaners and crêpe paper. Here are a few more examples to help you get started!
Japanese DS title Game Center CX is, in a way, a collection of eight retro-style games... but in another way, something more and greater than that. Either way, it’s awesome.
There are two reasons you might read this review:
You’ve never played Game Center CX and want to know all about it.
You have played Game Center CX and are therefore in a position to appreciate the terribly interesting things I have to say about it.
These are both good reasons! So read it I reckon.
Then, go and read every other review on this website, because they are all great.
I had planned to review Patapon today, but I'm still quite sick, so I asked my good friend Mr Blobbypants to fill in for me. He was happy to help, because he comes from Smiley Cloud Land and was raised by sunshine, and is a bit of a pushover, frankly. I hope you enjoy his wondrous thingo!
Hello! I wrote about some tunes today. Would you like to read what I wrote? Of course you would. You are nice. Your name is Mr Nice, and you live in Niceton with three nice cats and a nice budgie, and a mentally retarded son whom you keep gagged and chained in the basement with the rotting corpse of your murdered wife.
We have a real treat for you today! As a personal favour, Kotaku editor Brian Crecente set aside some time in his very busy schedule to create this video review of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, exclusively for Eegra.
We poke fun at Kotaku from time to time, but in all seriousness, Brian is a class act and I'd like to thank him for his generosity and professionalism.
At long last, I am very, very happy to present the first half of my interview with Kenichi Nishi, the designer of LOL: Lack Of Love, Giftpia, Chibi-Robo, and most recently Archime-DS, soon to be released in Europe and Australia as LOL.
I also interviewed Fumihiro Kanaya, the programmer of Archime-DS, and Miki Tashiro of Skip, the game's publisher. This is because I am an interviewing machine that cannot be stopped.
Click the linky bit to read words -- words about Archime-DS, Skip and Nintendo's bit Generations games; words about Nishi's approach to game design; about his philosophies and dog. Meet a living treasure of the world of videogames.
How much free time do you have today? Not much time at all? Good, because that's exactly how long it takes to play Mighty Jill Off, the best freeware game released last week. You can read all about it in my review! How convenient for you!
Well fiddle-dee-dee, it's time for another visit to the Magnificent All-Seeing Eye! Try not to soil your pants in terror as we WRITE THINGS about... Q*bert fanart!
Dun dun DUNNN!
Hey there should be a sequel to Q*bert called Q*ernie. Guys did you catch my hilarious joke just then.
Our young friend Tim had been asking to review a game for Eegra, and after deliberating briefly I decided to give him a go. But I didn't want to overwhelm his unique and sensitive brain, so I gave him LocoRoco. I was a little concerned about all the bright colours, but he seems to have managed all right and quite enjoyed himself, so if you'd like to see what he has to say about the well-known title, click the link below!
Hello dears! One week ago, I went to Fami-mode, an all-night 8bit music party in Tokyo, featuring YMCK, Sexy Synthesizer, and other bands of a like nature. Did you go too? No? Well read my wonderful article and be transported there, with the magic of words! Whee-hee-hee!
Hello, I wrote another article about videogame-related music, you know how I do. This one is all about chiptunes, mostly. Read it now with your eyes and brain!
Inspired by Daniel's masterwork-in-progress, I decided to write a fanfic. And what more deserving game to pay tribute to, than that exceptional and groundbreaking work of art, Bioshock.
I haven't actually played Bioshock, or read any reviews of Bioshock, or any promotional material, or even Bioshock's Wikipedia page. But I've seen it mentioned on videogame blogs, and I know how the story goes, pretty much.
In honour of Mentioning Chibi-Robo Occasionally Month here at Eegra, the Eye has chosen just that li'l robot helper to receive its perfect and incontrovertible judgement. Let's give a warm hand to the four-inch love machine!
Second update of the year and I'm already late. It's not my fault! There were monsters.
This is a long, long review of Archime-DS, the latest game from Kenichi Nishi, the creator of Chibi-Robo, Giftpia, and other, similarly unique and neato games. This review is so long that most of it isn't even a review. What is it, instead? Who knows. Not me! I already forgot! It is so amazing and cool and good that my brain just couldn't hold on to it.
Here is our EXCLUSIVE review of Super Mario Galaxy. You will not find this review on any other website! Read it now before your head just freakin' explodes!

Inspired by Tokyo Game Show, here is an ‘op ed’ about booth babes, which neither righteously condemns nor enthusiastically endorses their presence at trade shows. There's nothing in it for anyone to get angry about, I'm afraid, but if you're really keen, you're welcome to skip over the article and just get on with calling me a faggot in the forums.
If you answered, "Yes, except for blue-eyed American a capella singers doing pissweak versions of Christmas carols with smug grins on their stupid faces," then THIS IS AN ARTICLE FOR YOU.
Everyone knows that press releases are created by pushing a microphone into a company executive's arsehole and taking dictation. We've gotten used to it and it's no big deal. OR IS IT??
Patrick -- who feels anger at things, and can be embarrassing to be around -- thinks it is. Humour this harmless madman by agreeing to read his meticulous deconstruction of a Sony press release, then feel shock and fear as you realise you cannot deny the truth of his words! Despair that you were not prepared for his world-shattering revelations, and wish, vainly, that you could somehow un-read them!
Here's a review of Plasma Warrior-- a snack-sized freeware game where you jump up and down and shoot things. What did I think of it? HIT THE JUMP TO FIND OUT!!
Ah, just kidding -- I thought it was great. But go ahead and read the review anyway, because I'm a good writer and you will enjoy it.
Introducing The Magnificent All-Seeing Eye Upon deviantART, wherein we take videogame fanart seriously enough to review it. "In God's name, why?" you ask – and we are compelled to reply, do not question the Eye, nor invoke your puny god in Its presence.
