“Kingdom Hearts was hyped up not only by a fair amount by people who were wetting their pants while Kingdom Hearts ran many ads on TV (that, or because it has the Squaresoft logo, whatever works for you), but also by just about everyone else. Judging by the trailers and ads on TV, you’d be expecting such a spectacular game of epic proportions. I’m not going to lie; when I first saw the trailers, I was expecting such an epic game. It showcased Disney characters, Final Fantasy characters and a few other characters, as well as a few epic fights, but then again, when age comes into play, it really doesn’t feel that great. There is a difference in enjoyment of games between 10 and 16. Back when I first bought it at 10 years old, I was fully getting into it. However, as I grew older, I began to reject the cutesy look of the game. Regardless, I still enjoy playing this game every once in a while. It’s better than its PS2 sequel anyway.
To begin with, you have to select a difficulty mode;...”
“Introduction:
Ratchet: Deadlocked (or Gladiator for the Aussie and European readers - will refer this game as Deadlocked from here on out) is the fourth installment in the famous sci-fi third person shooter-platformer hybrid series known as Ratchet and Clank. Throughout the series up until this point, the games have been known to have humorous dialogue, fast-paced shooting action and some platforming. Well, Deadlocked decided to boycott platforming and make the humor as dry as a rancid carcass stranded in a desert after 20 rainless days, all for more action. I'd be willing to accept this with open arms, however, Ratchet and Clank has enough action in the second and third games, but it was balanced out with some platforming. Without this, Ratchet and Clank would get shallow, stale, repetitive, and eventually boring. They try to make the action a little more fast-paced and much more exciting, and in all honesty, it succeeds, but it's still shallow regardless. The fact that Clank isn't mentioned in the...”
“Trying to review Final Fantasy X2 as directly and honestly as possible without pissing off the fanboys and cheerleaders is as likely as trying to find a straw of hay in a large pile of needles without getting pricked and potentially losing most of your blood supply; it is undoable. I cannot provide an honest review without the need to mention how terrible this game is. It’s not just because it’s not even remotely true to the Final Fantasy series or the fact that it’s an underwhelming sequel to Final Fantasy X (which was a decent RPG), but because it reeks of Final Fantasy finally, after 15 years of good games, jumping the shark.
Hmm...Where to start, you may be wondering...I’ll start with the story that reeks of donkey doo-doo. Basically, it’s been two years since the ending of Final Fantasy X. The world is saved from being absolutely destroyed by a monster named Sin, and everybody rebuilds the destroyed towns. In the midst of all this, Yuna and Rikku are sphere...”
“This game is almost flawless. With the new Free Run added into the game, and the story being thought out so well, nothing is truly wrong with this game. The Graphics are great, the controls are easy, and everything is perfect. Free Run is a new concept which was added into this game, which allows you to run around the battlefield, instead of the old straight line battle system. This gives you more room to sneak up on your enemies, and will help you in battles. You must get to a certain level to obtain this amazing feature though. Here is an example of Free Run.
Of course, you can't forget the music. The music is intense, and it shows many different emotions, just by itself. When music is played, you can expect something to happpen, just by that music. You can always almost guess what is going to happen just by the music and story. The story and the music fit together so well, that this review score is mostly made up of the music and story. Songs like An Arrow is Shot, and Meaning of Birth, were...”
“This is a great Ratchet and Clank game. Even though it is probably not the best out of the series, it still delivers a game packed with fun and excitement. You must buy this game if you are into Adventure games. Here is the breakdown:
GAMEPLAY: Most of the missions in this game are perfect for the average gamer. If you are a hardcore gamer and love shooting games, then this game will probably be too easy for you. However, if you are not the brightest in the bunch and don't respond to things quickly, this game will just be plain frustrating to you. Some of the missions that include driving something, such as the Hovership, are difficult because it is vary hard to control the vehicle and you end up getting annihilated because there are way to many enemies to defeat. The OmniWrench is your greatest weapon simply because it is always there when you need it. Some levels require you to replay many times before you can win, but what fun would it be if you didn't learn new techniques and just beat everything...”
“Dark Cloud is one of those cult classics that have a sort of cult following. Honestly, do you expect mainstream gamers to go find a copy of Dark Cloud and play it? Well, they may buy it, but they may not like it. That's their problem, this is a true classic. Not in the same sense as other cult classics such as Super Ghouls N Ghosts and Final Fantasy 9 (despite the latter being of a mainstream series, it was only really successful with the more hardcore gamers) due to a decent amount of glaring flaws, but the goods seem to make it a classic regardless. Read on as I tell you the tale of a game that was left in the dust due to the glaring flaws, but became a success in the underground.
To begin the game, you start by reading some blurb about god knows what before you name your main character. His official name is Toan, but you name him what you want (yes, it proceeds even if you call him a vulgar word - you could name him assclown for all I care). Anyway, after naming yourself, you'll be treated to a...”
“I love playing BMX games, but this is definitely one that I would not buy again if I had the choice. There are several flaws with it.
CONTROLS: The controls on this game are terrible. Steering the bike, which you do by just pushing the analog stick where you want to go, is very frustrating. Or you can steer using the directional pad, which is even harder. Once you get your character going on his bike, it is impossible to slow down unless you come to a full stop or crash into something. Jumping is ok, but still a bit lame. To jump, press the X button. For a higher jump press, hold and release the X button. The buttons on top of the controller do nothing, so that is basically a big waste. Tricks are a bit too easy to do, but that’s about the only easy thing on this game. Just press random buttons on the controller for a few high-scoring points. You don’t even need to know the trick combinations to this game, which takes away a lot of fun. Overall, this game is one of the most difficult games...”
“Detailed Summary:
You know these sorts of games...where the developers focus only the graphics, soundtrack and hyping the crap out of it, only to get people suckered into playing a monotomous rip off with a terrible story (which is basically non-existant, unless you consider "kill this guy" "get this item" and "save some person" a story), literally no character development, flawed and mostly-plagurised gameplay and battle after battle after battle. Oh, forgot to mention something; it breaks LOADS of RPG traditions! Seriously, I didn't even think of this as an RPG until I read it up on the Internet. I thought it was a generic adventure game with a turn based battle system. Seriously. And it barely felt like Lord Of The Rings too. It had the damn logo and the major monsters (aka the bosses of the game) from the movies, plus brief character cameos, but aside from this, it felt like...well, a generic adventure game. How was this? Read on!
As far as me encountering this game goes, I just found it at Cash...”
“I mean like in other fighters when you grab you press one of the directional buttons for a different grab. The grabs aren't too impressive either but i didn't want to scar the review by going on about it.”
“Wow thank you very much. I'm glad it helped. I wrote this review quite a while ago and I'm glad to see it's still helping. Great game though, I'm sure you'll agree. =)”
