Jim Squires is the Editor-in-Chief of Gamezebo. Everything you see passes his eyes first, so we like to think of him as "the gatekeeper of cool stuff." He likes good games, great writing, and just can't say no to a hamburger. Also, he is not a bear.

    Big Picture has changed the way I shop on Steam

    By

    I don't know about you, but I hate labels.  I've never considered myself a "PC gamer" or a "console gamer." Having said that, I still have my biases. For example, I feel I have an innate understanding for what belongs on my desktop and what belongs in my living room.  As Kipling once wrote, "East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet."

    The fine folks at kode80 know a thing or two about scratching the nostalgia itch; their earlier Gameboy-inspired release 1-bit Ninja more than proved that.  Now the developer is back with a brand new iOS title, and while it might look like the darling love child of Bubble Bobble and Donkey Kong, Oh Hi! Octopi! plays unlike anything we've ever seen before.

    If the They Bleed Pixels experience can be summed up in a single word, that word would be "humbling."  Despite my valiant efforts to the contrary, I wasn't able to finish the whole game before writing this review.  In fact, I don't even think I was able to finish half of it.  That's not because it's a big game, or because I'm a terribly inconsiderate writer - it's simply because of this: They Bleed Pixels is a brutally difficult game.
