Gotta go fast!

System: Nintendo 3DS
Release Date: September 19th, 2013
Developer: QubicGames
Price: $4.99/£4.49/€4.99

Author: Austin

Alas, what is AiRace Speed? Those with a notable collection of DSiWare titles may remember a little game called AiRace Tunnel, and this– if you intend to stop reading here– is like a shinier and (hopefully) better version of that. But why am I trying to describe it to you? Let’s take it from the folks over at Qubic themselves:

“AiRace Speed is a futuristic racing game providing a challenging and unique sense of speed and adrenaline. It is regarded already by many as one of the best racing games on Nintendo 3DS, especially at its low price of $4,99 (or 4,99€ or £4,49).”

Because they are such efficient and helpful people, they also provided a list of what you can expect in the game:

• Fly across 18 adrenaline-fueled tracks

• Take control of 5 high-tech jets

• Enjoy stunning graphics and immersive 3D effects

• Compete in online global leaderboards

• Try to unlock 42 special achievements

If you’re intrigued, read onwards! The most important information is right after the break.

Ah yes, it is that time of year again– time to start preparing and setting up our participation in Extra Life 2013! Last year we participated for the first time ever and managed to play video games for 24 hours straight while people watched us live over the internet. This year, it’s going to be the same deal only BIGGER, BADDER, and BETTER than ever! So, here’s the low-down:

What is Extra Life? What have you gotten yourselves into this time?

Extra Life is a charity organization that is most famous for setting up a global 24-hour gaming marathon that has gamers attempting to play any game– board game, video game, card game, etc– for 24 hours straight without stopping. Anyone can participate, and your fundraising goal can be any amount you want– don’t hesitate to sign up yourself if you think you can get a few friends or family members to pitch in a couple bucks.

100% of the money goes to the charity, and it’s used to purchase video games and consoles for kids who are chronically ill or otherwise have to stay in hospitals for extended periods. The games are meant to help take their minds off of what they may be going through, which I’m sure many of you who have spent time in a hospital can relate to!
