After nearly four years in development, the infamous Killzone 2 has been released exclusively on the Playstation 3 platform. It's a First Person Shooter developed by Guerrilla Games that lives up to the initial CGI trailer released at E3 in 2005. Without going into too much detail, plain and simple, this game is a must buy for ALL PS3 owners and warrants at least a rent for owners of multiple platforms. The single…
Resistance 2 is the follow up sequel to the Playstation 3's exclusive launch title Resistance: Fall of Man. It's a first person shooter created by Insomniac Games, who's known for their Ratchet and Clank installments. You play as the infected soldier Nathan Hale in his continued saga to save humanity from the Chimeran invasion which has now come to the home front of the United States (specifically California,…
Mirror's Edge is a new IP created by EA DICE. Massive props to EA (can't believe I said that) for attempting to be innovative and try something new in a world that loves to stick to the working formula for a guaranteed dollar, pound, etc. Mirror's Edge is a first person action game that combines parkour with platforming elements. This is a new spin on the first person genre as normally you're aiming down a gun…
Fallout 3 is an action role playing game by Bethesda Softworks. Along the lines of Oblivion, Mass Effect and Knights of the Old Republic, Fallout 3 places a huge emphasis on making the player carry out a slew of moral choices throughout the game. If you enjoyed playing some of the aforementioned RPG titles, than you will find yourself playing Fallout 3 for hours on end to view as much of the available content within…
Devil May Cry 4 is an action-packed beat em up game by Capcom for the Playstaion 3 and Xbox 360. The PS3 version utilizes the power of blu-ray and HDD space as it is uploaded to the hard drive. The major downside to the game is the install time as you will probably be waiting about 25 minutes for it to complete before you can begin and will become tired of the main theme song when you finally do start. Other than…
Warhawk is a 3rd person sci-fi shooter created by SCEA Incognito. It's a multiplayer only war game and the first on the Playstation 3. It places you on either the red (Chernovian) or blue (Eucadian) team in an all out war that takes place in the sky and/or on land. Due to the lack of a single player campaign mode, one would think that this game could not be good, but one play through of the online experience will…
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is a third person action adventure game created by Naughty Dog. It stars Nathan Drake, a fortune hunter, on a great mission to discover the lost treasure of El Dorado. Plain and simple the game borrows ideas from a variety of different sources and blends them well. Platforming and a duck and cover system combine and give the user a fresh new experience on the PS3, moreso if you have never…
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is a First Person Shooter created by Infinity Ward. After a boat load of FPS' s set during the WWII timeframe, COD4 breaks the mold and places you within various environments (mainly urban) during modern times. This is a HUGE change as it gives the game a unique fresh feeling. Personally, FPS' are not my forte, however, after playing this game my feelings for the genre began to change.…
Grand Theft Auto 4 is the first installment on the next-gen consoles in the GTA franchise from Rockstar. It stars Eastern European Niko Bellic as the main protagonist, who is in route to Liberty City to meet up with his cousin Roman Bellic. Roman has sent numerous emails and letters to Niko and his mother about how he is living the "American Dream". He informs them that he has penthouse sweets, beautiful women,…
Everybody is familiar with Kojima's Metal Gear series. Metal Gear Solid 4 is the final chapter in Snake's epic journey on the Playstation 3. I won't go into too many details in this review because most have already read the many praising reviews or experienced this great game by now. I'll keep it short and simple: Gameplay: 10 (5 stars) Sound: 10 (5 stars) Graphics: 10 (5 stars) Lasting Appeal: 10 (5 stars) Overall:…
