Pros Combat is fun when not ruined by camera Cutscenes are well presented Cons Camera is terrible Levelling up system is bad Story is uninteresting The same death animation over and over again gets really old Could be a better health system, die way to much Character voices are mediocre at best Bosses aren't fun at all Presentation Cutscenes are presented very well. The camera is absolutely terrible. Menus could be…
Pros Great jokes, humorous take on war First battlefield with a good story Great level design Graphics and sound = epic win Online is still very fun Cons Could be many more online modes and maps Presentation Cutscenes look great. Menus work well. 4/5 Graphics Explosions and desturction look amazing. Character models are fantastic. Textures are nice and detailed. 4.5/5 Gameplay Fun as hell to play and blow stuff up.…
Pros Incredible story with some very unexpected twists Innovative weapons Amazing world design Enemies are also designed very well Feels like a real place, as if its alive Cons Sometimes rare autosave points will force you to save manually Sometimes felt like there should have been more ammo provided for me or more ammo locations Presentation Everything is done very well from the cutscenes to the animation and…
Pros Incredible value Portal = incredibly revolutionary puzzle game Story is one of the best ive ever seen in a game (Half-Life 2) Character emotion is stunning Mission design is fun Variety of enemies are great Awesome ending Cons This game made me try and think of cons for it for 5 minutes when really there is none Presentation Cutscenes, level of emotion, level design, everything is top notch. 5/5 Graphics Portal…
Pros Great artistic graphics Fun and unique...at first Great animations of the animals Good variety of things to put in garden Creative (and funny) pinata names, and looks Sounds of the pinatas, and background noise are good Cons Gets old very fast. Can become more complicated than it should be when its a game aimed towards kids. Presentation Camera and navigation works well. 3.5/5 Graphics Artistic design is great.…
Pros: Almost completely destructable environments is fun Huge map Fun missions Neat ideas (i.e. Hijack helicopter, tanks, etc) Cons Some of the worst vehicle engine sounds i've ever heard in a game. Dialogue is very repetitive and annoying Draw distance is quite bad, worse than GTA Story is uninteresting AI can be very stupid sometimes Presentation Good menus and loading screens. Cutscenes are done pretty decently.…
Pros Good song selection..but not as good as Rock Band. Good online and matchtypes...but not as good as Rock Band. The more challenging music game (in the Guitar category obviously) Cons DLC fails Graphics and animation need serious help No customizable characters Presentation Menus look great. Presentation of the band could have been much better. Often the singing doesnt match the singers lips well, and the drummer…
Pros Forge editor is fantastic, adds much replay value. The theater is also another great new feature, very well done. Good customization for characters online. Most of the single player is a blast and the co-op is excellent. Cons Campaign could be much longer. Graphics are slightly disappointing Presentation Menus look great. Very well presented cut scenes and ending to the game. Online matchmaking is fantastic.…
Pros Car damage is done very well Excellent amount of cars and tracks Online is fun and adds to replay value Car customization is excellent and also adds to replay value Buying cars, etc online works well Taking screenshots feature works great Cons Online can be quite laggy Presentation Menus work great. No cut scenes or anything like that. 3/5 Graphics Car models are pretty good, as well as the environments and…
Pros Amazing story Great side quests, add to the already good length of the game Good customization of the character and what type of person you are Amazing graphics and environments Excellent system of choosing what you want to say Cons Framerate and texture load-in issues Presentation Very well presented cut scenes. 4/5 Graphics Amazing. Excellent character models, environments, weapons, art, and everything else.…
Pros Amazing graphics and environments Incredible online setup Great weapons with tons of attachments Awesome story with a great ending Finally stopped all the WWII shooters Arcade mode is fun Cons Story is very short No co-op Presentation Intro and cutscenes are done very well. Single player and online menus are also great. 4/5 Graphics Overall, great. Environments look great. Weapons are detailed, and the…
Pros Still fun to play as a WWE fan as all other WWE games are Huge amount of match types as their always has been Cons Bad story, isn't nearly as good as previous games Still bad clipping and animation issues Presentation Menus are done very well, aswell as the entrances for most characters. Cut scenes before matches get VERY repetitive. 3.5/5 Graphics An improvement, although they could have been much better.…
Pros Very nice stealth feel to it. Sometimes will feel as if i'm inside Sam's body actually doing this. Fun online adds to replay value Good graphics and environments Cons Uninteresting story Don't like the idea of the trust system, could have implemented some other way to keep you being stealthy. Really nothing screams out "AMAZING!!" from this game to me. Couldn't find anything that made it unique or in some way…

Pros Amazing graphics, still beat out a lot of games today Awesome weapons, enemies, and environments..Quite unique Great online, requires team work or you'll get your ass kicked. Very nice maps, and plenty of them to play. Also plenty of fun and unique game modes Good storyline. Not one of the best next-gen storylines, but good. Cons Like many other shooters, campaign could be longer. Could use a better matchmaking…
Pros First music game ever with drums, which are a blast to play Great soundtrack and an insane amount of DLC Very fun to play as a band both in real life and online The other multiplayer aspects such as the battles are also great fun Awesome character customization, which can be used online Great character animation including the drummer, the overall mood of the performance seems to go a lot better with the song…
Pros Level up of different abilities works great Finding orbs is very fun, have spent 5+ hours on multiple occasions just doing that Great sandbox graphics and explosions Good soundtrack, fits the game Co-op is excellent, can be very fun with a friend Very fun to fool around in the city Cons Story isn't interesting at all. Clean up the city of all the gangs. The commentators voice can get very annoying, as well as…
Pros: Just as fun as GTA has always been. A true next-gen jump from a previous gen game. Everything feels much more alive and real than in past GTA games. Everything from the variety in traffic, to the lighting, to the relationships. Euphoria physics engine is incredible, very realistic. Great soundtrack, as their always has been in GTA games. The amount of detail is incredible. Things like the TV shows, internet,…
