Karateka Review
The old school becomes new school in Karateka, a re-imagining of a classic PC game. But does this new rhythm-fighter have the moves to keep up with the big boys of iOS gaming? Or does it deserve a sweep to the leg?

This week we will get to see Karateka kick its way into the App Store. The game is a remake of Jordan Mechner's 1984 title of the same name. To help celebrate and promote the game's release, Mechner and the dev team at Liquid Entertainment released a series of making of videos about the game that give gamers a cool look behind the scenes.
Jordan Mechner's Karateka has officially been released for the Xbox LIVE Arcade, with a PSN, Steam, and an iOS version arriving this sometime this month. The official trailer has also debuted, giving fans a taste of what's new, complete with crane-punching action.
