[The Top Five] Reasons Not to Dump Your Wii Just Because Nintendo Announced the 3DS

Posted on by

The title pretty much says it all.

Ever since the announcement of the 3DS, some Nintendo fans have been bringing up a silly argument in message boards. They feel, for whatever reason, that because the 3DS has 3D, superior graphical capabilities, and tilt and gyro control just like the Wii, that Nintendo’s current home system is inadequate and deserves to be pulled from their entertainment system shelves and tossed in the garbage.

What?

Here are just five reasons why everyone who has made that argument needs to step back, take a breath, and reevaluate their stance.

Many of you have noticed that we’ve began to expand our humble little site into a network of dedicated review sites. The process is slow, but we are steadily growing our frontier for reviews to multiple web sites. The first of these children sites Everyview produced is CaffeineCritic.com, a site dedicated to all things energy.

Now, let me introduce you to Does It Hit The Spot, the newest member of the Everyview Network. DoesItHitTheSpot.com (or DIHTS.com) is dedicated to all things food. Restaurants, snacks, recipes, meals and more will all have a review home at DIHTS, where we do our best to answer the question, Does It Hit The Spot?

Of course just like with Caffeine Critic, we will post blurbs and links from DIHTS right here on Everyview to ensure all of our readers stay connected to our growing family of sites.

[Movie Review] Toy Story 3

Fifteen years between the first  film of a trilogy and the culminating final installment is quite a long piece of time within the Hollywood machine. But somehow, Toy Story, not only manages to succeed in the face of a sure demise, they actually manage to craft a film that elevates the entire franchise from “Much Loved” to “Greatest of All-Time”.

Go ahead and try to come up with a true film franchise with at least two movies that matches the overall success and originality of Toy Story. Seriously, go ahead and try. I’ll wait.

[Self-Created Game Review] Potshot

Conflict of Interest Disclaimer: This is a review for a game I co-created.

As a child, I had but one goal; to make it in the NBA. As an avid fan of the Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and Bill Wennington led Chicago Bulls dynasty of the 90’s, I dreamed of nothing more than using my superior athletic abilities to bring a city joy in the same way those great players brought joy to Chicago.

Things seemed perfectly on schedule following my sixth grade season when I won my team’s free throw championship (63%). Then something unfortunate happened. Simply put, I got lazy. My desire to play simply fizzled out as my body got less receptive to all the fitness requirements necessary for those hoping to succeed in the game. Continue reading →

[Food Review] Doritos: Mr. Dragon’s Fire Chips

Posted on by

Doritos has really been on quite the roll as of late. They kicked things off with the stellar Tacos at Midnight and Last Call Jalapeno Poppers, the first two flavors of their now renowned Late Night Line of Chips, and then built off of that success with All Nighter Cheeseburger, another stellar chip that literally blew my mind. With this success I figured it would be at least two more Late Night Flavors before the snack food giant decided to release any kind of strange flavor without the now trust brand labeled on the bag.

However, I was pleasantly surprised to hear about Mr. Dragon’s Fire Chips, a very strange product with an even stranger name. Equipped with the Japanese treat known as wasabi — a very spicy seasoning somewhat comparable to American hot sauce (though not really, more on that in a moment), can I chock up another high score for Doritos?
