Who didn’t like cheesy, over the top Kung-Fu flicks in the 80′s? Well we at CIA sure did and we still like them today, so what would be more fun than to review a cheesy, over the top, C64 Kung-Fu game released in 2011? This time the review is a collab from all of us, I was just forced to…

You are supposed to stop Joker and catch the Penguin (separated in two games), Batman’s sworn enemies and save Gotham city. What else could a big bat do? You lead our hero through the comic boxes, which…
Let me preface this review by saving you some time – Robocop is a lousy game. This fact is further aggravated by my purchase of this game when it came out, and it wasn’t cheap. (Yes, I bought games…not just pirated them). In fact you don’t really need to play it – the game describes itself quite aptly in the…
These days it seems every major gaming company has some sort of mascot. Sega has Sonic, Nintendo has Mario, and Sony has various failed attempts at ripping off both.
