Future So Bleak 0
While I, personally, have never had a significant investment in the Ghost Recon franchise, there are many people that have. The earlier games in the franchise gained significant fame and love from critics and normal folk alike due to its unique and tense stealth action sequences. That praise arguably piqued with the release of Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter. Its name wasn’t the only thing was ridiculously long as so was the games lifespan. The engaging multiplayer and sheer beauty ...

Arkham City Does Not Disappoint 0
When Batman: Arkham Asylum was released in late August 2009, it flipped all expectations for the game on their heads with its revolutionary combat system. The animation combined with the simplicity of just pressing a single button to counter an enemy attack with a brutal punch or kick was purely stunning. It doesn’t hurt either that the game delivered a fine story voiced perfectly by Kevin Conroy (Batman) and Mark Hamill (Joker). Mark and Kevin both reprise their famous roles in the much anticip...

How To Train Your Dragon Should Be Avoided By Everyone 2
Very rarely is a movie-game good, so my expectations for How To Train Your Dragon were already non-existent. How To Train Your Dragon’s formula is very apparent, make a game where kids that loved the movie will buy, play for an hour, then never play again. Not even a child that was in love with the movie would enjoy this game. It’s un-fun in every single way. Once you start playing, you can see a bit of potential. The game looks decent when you’re wondering around the very small world and the m...

Excitement is everywhere in Just Cause 2 5
Just Cause 2 can be described very well in one word, fun. If you don't have a bit of fun with this game, you're doing wrong. I only played a bit of the first one and could tell that it was not what I wanted from an open-world game. Having played the demo for this one, I was excited. Very excited. Luckily, I was not disappointed whatsoever. In Just Cause 2, you play as Rico Rodriguez. A man that knows how to do all sorts of things that no man should even attempt. From riding the bottom of a he...

Definitely not flawless, but should be played 0
The first Battlefield: Bad Company was highly praised although I never fully understood the love. It all felt very monotonous. Sure, it was funny and endearing for a bit, but I got tired of the same "kill a group, walk, kill a group, walk," formula. Which means I quit the game after a couple of hours. If it got better, I'll never know. That being said, my excitement for Bad Company 2 was minimal. The thing I was most excited for, the Multi-Player, is probably my least favorite thing. It felt v...

The Water Falls, Bioshock 2 Does Not 0
Going into Bioshock 2, I really didn't know how I felt about it. On one hand, I was stoked for some more Bioshock, on the other, I didn't really think the original needed a sequel. Having played through the entire Bioshock 2 campaign, I still stick by those two sentiments. Bioshock 2 is very good, improving on many things from Bioshock 1 but I would have been able to live without it. The main compelling things in the first Bioshock was by far the story and characters. Watching your own characte...

Why's Pele on my TV screen? 0
Academy of Champions: Soccer has a very interesting idea. A soccer game where in the story mode you're living your life at a "Soccer Academy." It's too bad that the idea and the first hour or so is one of the few inventive thing to be had here. Once you start the story mode of Academy of Champions: Soccer, you're given a calendar, in which every day has certain events ranging from "un-fun minigames" or the always exciting "gossip" where teammates will tell you things that seem like the ...

Arkham has never been so great 0
He's totally Batman Batman Arkham Asylum has garnered quite a bit of hype since it was first revealed. For many reasons, it looked interesting, it didn't seem like just another 'comic book game', and of course, it's frigging' Batman.Going into the game, having played the demo, I knew to expect a very good game but I still underestimated it a bit.First thing you see when you launch up this game is good ol' Batman and Joker. That is pretty great in itself but if you want more, Bane? He's the...

The Bigs is back and is better than it's predcessor in many ways 0
When Bigs 1 was released, it really went under the radar, I played it and quite loved it. It really opened my eyes to the fact that not all sports games have to be "hardcore" sims. Well, Bigs is back with a sequel that brings back the arcade feel, yes, but also gives you just a little bit more with a nice career mode and some pretty impressive in game gameplay.The look of The Bigs is very close to the look of many other arcade sports games, ie Blitz, Slug-Fest, etc. During the "legendary catches...

Excitement- Battlefield 1943, ik-sahyt-muhnt, noun. 0
Let's get this out of the way, first. When Battlefield 1943 was released, it had quite a bit of issues. A games launch can honestly probably not get much worse than Battlefields, seeing as it was totally unplayable. Also, sitting at the start screen, tapping A over and over again is not really a fun thing to review. After maybe 2 days of work on their servers, the game was finally really ready to launch.And launch it did. The time waiting for it was totally worth it, despite it not having much d...

Now this is what I want from a 50 Cent game. 1
50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is of course the follow-up to what most people consider a game that is pretty much utter garbage, 50 Cent: Bulletproof. And Blood on the Sand pretty much improves on everything. Not just is the shooting fun and frantic it also has a story that is not “epic” or what-have-you but it’s actually a fun over-the-top story that I enjoyed. It’s pretty simple, 50 Cent does a USO concert and needs his pay, the guy don’t have the money so he pays him with this Crystal Skull but t...

Street Fighter IV, it's totally here--I think... 1
Street Fighter IV, baby. It’s here and it’s better than ever. A couple of months ago I could’ve told you straight up that the chances of me getting Street Fighter IV was slim-to-none but after a while of Street Fighter talk and me watching gameplay, I bought into the hype and finally made the faithful decision to get the game. Street Fighter IV of course has the normal modes like arcade and exhibition but they throw in some challenge modes that I found to be entertaining for a while. One being t...

Welcome to the Tropical Wasteland of Ghouls and Super Mutants! 2
Fallout 3 is one of those games that, at first, it seems pretty bad. You’re thrown out of a vagina and you begin life in the vault. Now, you don’t really get the “full-experience” of life in the vault because you go from around age 1 or 2 to age 10, then 16, and finally 18. You’re waked up to find your dad has escaped from the vault and you have to go find him! This is when you’re introduced to arguably Fallout’s greatest pro, the Wasteland. It is actually quite intimidating knowing that this po...

Afro Samurai has loads of potential--that just isn't fulfilled. 0
Afro!Afro Samurai is a game that makes failure pop into my head instantly. I mean, if it wasn't an Anime, just the nam would bring back bad memories of Pirates vs. Ninja's Dodgeball. Luckily this game isn't complete fail, matter of fact it's not fail at all, super matter of fact, it's pretty great in some points but in others, not so much...One of the great things is the gameplay. Sure, sometimes it gets tedious just running around, hacking and slashing people in the same way but seeing their bl...

Hello, Far Cry 2. Sit back and relax. 0
Far Cry 1, needless to say was pretty freaking awesome and appealed to almost everybody. If you like blood and gore, it was for you, you like pretty graphic, it was for you, if you like man eating beasts' with a crazy sick disease, it was no doubt, for you. Far Cry2 is pretty much completely different from the first ones. There's no crazy rabid animal powers, your just a man, in war-torn Africa. But does that really hurt Far Cry 2?Short answer no, long answer, hell no. Far Cry 2 has a rather wea...

Dead Space is one of the best horror games this century 0
Dead Space starts out with you and 3 other people, and your ship crashes. You soon find out that the place you landed on is infested with a crazy zombie beast and you have to kill them and get out of that place! This leads to one of the weaker points of Dead Space, the story.The story is OK but we've all seen this before. I would love to see a horror game that doesn't involve zombies. Sure, this game is one of the best horror games I've ever layed eyes on, but still, I want a new horror storylin...

Just pure fun 0
Most ATV series' have all been pretty bad. They would be good in the graphics department bad gameplay, poor controls, and repetitive events. Pure is here to change all of that with it's frantic gameplay, varied maps, sharp controls, and absolutely stunning graphics. All this title really fails in is the re-play value factor, which I'll touch on in a little bit.Like I've already said, the gameplay is fast and frantic. I've yet to experience any frame-rate drops while playing, I do, though have so...

This might not be GTA IV, but man, it's still very good 1
Saints Row 1 really took the gaming world by storm, with it's great open-world gameplay and good story. Saints Row 2 is here and takes place about 4 years after the first Saints. Your in a coma after having the shit blown out of you and you have to fight through loads of dolphins in your coma -- alright I'm lying. You actually start off after you woke up from your "coma". This leads to one of the best features, although there is a lot of them, this is by far one of the most detailed feature.You ...

The Dark Knight returns...in LEGO form. 0
LEGO Batman has really went under the radar with all these great games coming out. I saw some images and all it really looked like was just another LEGO game, that has some LEGO cred in it,but I've always had a little space in my heart for LEGO games and despite the poor humor and frustrating puzzles this game is pretty great.The puzzles are very annoying some are really hard and some can be quite easy.Your sometimes wander around for 10-20 minutes at a time wondering what in the world to do nex...

Worth the wait. 0
It feels like it's been 3 years waiting for this game...oh wait it has.This game has been delayed--then delayed--then delayed--then delayed.I think there's a few more delays in that list, but I also think you get the point that the game has been in development for a long time.This is the third entry into the BIA series and is easily the worst of the three.Which may sound like I'm saying this is a bad game, but it's not.You play as Staff Sergeant Matt Baker as he try's to command his friends in t...

Bad control scheme+Confusing story=Too Human 0
Too Human has went through a huge development cycle filled with all kind's of crazyness and shenanigans.Originally first it was supposed to be a PS1 game then that console died then it should be for the PS2, that console hasn't died but it's kinda broke it's hip and is in hospital at this time, then let's switch it around and go to Microsoft!So now, it's got a real console that it's launching for, the Xbox 360!And finally after 10 years this garbage err...game is here!Now Too Human isn't as ...

When Contra was announced to be comming to XBLM(Which was a really long time ago)I was pretty excited.I still play the original Contra at my Aunt's, one because it's freaking awesome and two, the only other console she has is a PS2 in which she only has Prince of Persia and a lot of Final Fantasy games.So the date finally came around on November 8, 2006.I could finally play some old-school Contra on my 360.At first, this game is the same as the original, which could be good or bad.I personally t...

What could have been... 0
Wow, so this game is finally here.For about a year and a half I've been eagerly anticipating this game, checking out every screenshot or video I could get a hold of.Well, like I said, this game is finally here, and could it be more disappointing?First of all the camera is abysmal, almost as bad as the camera in Ninja Gaiden.The camera isn't 'so' bad during regular combat, but during boss fights the camera is so bad it made me want to rip the game out of my disk tray and break the damn thing in h...

TNA iMPACT delivers on good gameplay but fails on everything else 1
