To get the Gale Boomerang, Link must defeat Ook the baboon.
The Forest Temple is the first “dungeon” in Twilight Princess. In Zelda parlance, a dungeon is a sort of underworld (though it’s not always necessarily the case) that Link is supposed to conquer. Each dungeon contains an essential quest item, treasure, or boss to defeat. The Forest Temple presents a couple of bosses that Link must overcome. Today, we show you how to beat these foes.

Reviews – High School Musical 3: Senior Year (DS)
October 28, 2008 by Mike · Leave a Comment
By most accounts, High School Musical 3: Senior Year is a critical and commercial success. Could the same thing be said for Nintendo DS game of the same name? If one is familiar with the history of film-licensed video games, the chances of having a good tie-in aren’t very encouraging. Does High School Musical 3: Senior Year buck that trend?

Review Surfing – Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia (DS)
More and more critics are speaking up about Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. What’s interesting is that many of these staunch critics are known to be rather stingy in praise and generous in handing out censure (i.e. Destructoid, 1UP). Upon playing the franchise’s third installment for the Nintendo DS, the curmudgeons are now singing a different tune.

Japanese blog reveals Nintendo DSi box

See the display and weep for a DSi.
Remember when we showed you Nintendo’s spanking new DSi handheld? Like the DS Lite, the DSi is a nifty piece of hardware. Unfortunately, everyone else outside Japan won’t get to enjoy the handheld until next year. Contributing to the itch, a Japanese blog (via Kotaku) was kind enough (or ruthless enough—you decide) to show what the DSi’s new box would look like.

Tips and Tricks – The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii)
October 24, 2008 by Mike · Leave a Comment
Like any Zelda game, Twilight Princess begins with Link having three heart containers that serve as his hit points. As players progress through the game, several heart containers would be revealed. However, this wouldn’t be a proper Zelda game without all the secrets, correct? Pay attention, traveler, for the secrets of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess that will be revealed to you today could very well affect Link’s quest to free Hyrule.

Get ready for Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia, the long-running franchise’s third installment for the Nintendo DS. The game takes place after the events of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. For some strange reason, the Belmonts have disappeared, leaving no one to oppose Count Dracula and his dark minions. Enter the Order of Ecclesia, which somehow found a way to fight the undying vampire.
