Shadowrun is using a new technology that MS call "Live Everywhere", many people are already familiar with xbox live, but live everywhere is the vista version of it. This is a nice idea combining to systems to play a fully online game. However there are some frustrating elements in Shadowrun. The graphics are think aren't stunning but look great, even though they reccomend a 5.0 rating I find it looks just as good on…
Viva Pinata lets you take control of what starts of to be a small bit of dead land, but as soon as you plant your first bit of grass and whack your shovel for the first time... your garden is becoming better by the second. Viva pinata is a very fun game for all ages, despite it's aimed at young children its very easy to pick up the controller and loose yourself in the land of pinatas. Which is why the first day I…
When i started playing the game I was scared... and that is not common for me in video games. Finnaly a truely scray game has come to give us nightmares for us gamers ^_^! However COC does not come without flaws. The graphics in my opinion suit the game perfectly, as using dark textures and using a 1920's film effect, it really sets you in to the scary atmosphere that COC has to offer. Voice acting is not flawed in…

Vampire Rain could have been one of the most promising games to date on the next gen system. But it turned out to be a flop. Graphically I think its rubbish, cinematics look good but thats only because it is pre-rendered and not using the games engine. Vampires do not seem real as no-one in the right mind runs like that. Sound-wise yeah I think its accurate the guns sound realistic i suppose. Voice acting is okay…
Bioshock is one of those games, which may have been a huge flop, but turned out to be one of the greatest single player games of 2007. Graphically the game looks a little cartoony but you don't seem to notice this as you will still gasp in awe, at the games environments and the setups that 2K have set for you. Water effects are amazing, as are other elements of the game such as fire, ice, electricity etc. they all…
Crackdown is a lot of fun but where there are good parts..., sadly there are bad parts. Story: I seem to vaguely get the story, you are a new protoype genetically modified cop. And somehow 3 gang have managed to take over whole islands from the law enforcement. And you have to take 'em back. Even though I vaguley understand the story, it still isn't enough to keep me intrigued. Story 3/10 Graphics: An interesting…
If you do not wish to read the full review I have made a brief; good and bad points about Blue Dragon. Good: Long story which spans over 3 discs, music is astounding, graphics suit the gameplay and style of Blue Dragon, animation and uniqueness for each characters spells/abilties are both amusing and cool to look at. Bad: English voice acting is not great, Playable Characters seem to have mostly jumped out of DBZ.…
If you do not wish to read the full review I have made a brief; good and bad points about Dungeon Keeper 2. Good: The humour of dungeon keeper 2 will make you smile throughout each stage, The graphics and sound set the mood very well making you think you were there breathing in the cold, dank air, Many ways you can approach a situation, Traps and spells are a fun and neat edition, Equally as good as it's…
Mass Effect is the highly anticipated Xbox 360 RPG by developer BioWare, most famously known for their work on the D&D (Dungeons and Dragons) games, such as Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights. You start off at the character creation screen, you can either go with the default character either male or female, or you can change the appearence of your character as you see fit. The customization is very similar to The…
As we all know british developer infinity ward managed to create something which was able to combat with EA's WWII title, Medal of Honour. For 3 games we have been travelling through the same old recycled battles of WII: D-Day, Moscow etc. And it became tediously dull and boring for most of us. That was until Call of Duty 4 came along. I.F. (Infinity Ward) released a BETA of the games MP to Xbox 360 to certain…
When I first heard that Alone in the Dark was being remade, I was all for seeing what they could do with the series and try to compete with the hugely popular Resident Evil series by Capcom. Anyway on with the review. Graphiaclly Alone in the Dark uses it's engines dark and light textures to a good extent, the contrast of the two types are used well in the game creating more of an atmosphere that you are Alone in…
