The Star Wars franchise is one of the largest out there today with media ranging from movies, books, comics, and even video games! With all of these things bouncing around for decades, you would have to live in a cave to not even hear of it. In the latest installment in the Star War series for video games, The Force Unleashed aims to please, and doesn't miss!
I was one of the few that actually went more than a decade without seeing any Star Wars movie, reading a Star Wars book/comic, or playing a Star Wars video game. In fact, it wasn't until about May of 2008 when I finally became engulfed by the force and was compelled to watch episodes one through six. I noticed how there was a huge time skip between the ending of episode three where Anakin first dons the black uniform and voice of Darth Vader, and the beginning of episode four when Luke is already a young man, and only a handful of Jedi are left throughout the galaxy. On top of everything else it does, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed explains a...
Clean your room, do all your chores and tell your mum you love her before sitting down to Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty, as you will be instantly hooked on this little episodic gem and your family won’t see you for hours!
Question Answering? No Way! [R&C:ToD Spoiler]
Bridging the gap between the two high-end projects in the ‘FUTURE’ series (R&C: Tools of Destruction and the next R&C game which doesn’t yet have a title [R&C: Quest for Booty is also part of this series]), Insomniac have brought out Quest for Booty to keep us tied over ‘till the next R&C title, while seemingly answering questions we may have had about Ratchet’s side-kick Clank going missing at the end of R&C: Tools of Destruction. Quest for Booty does little to answer our questions about the disappearance of Clank, but does answer what Ratchet has done since his little buddy went missing. On the contrary, it produces more questions, with the arrival of a ‘thought...
Summary: Metal Gear Online, shortened simply to MGO, is what it says on the tin. It's a Online multiplayer version of the Metal Gear series. It was launched on the same day as Metal Gear Solid 4 as a basic starter pack and has since been updated and slowly improved over the months. In a sense in the space of the past few months It has matured and gotten better. So now that it seems just about done playing about I think it's worth a user review. So here we go. Once more the final score will be out of 40 but fractioned to a score out of 10.
Story: -
Well this is the hardest part to judge as simply it has nothing of a story other than the actual Metal Gear Solid saga. It's background and setting are based around PMC mercenaries from MGS. Your create one, customise him or her with gear and skills, and then go out and slaughter people. Although this is very dry you will actually apreciate it's background as It allows each character to feel significant to the original story, and the plot, slips in...
When I read some reviews on this game saying stuff like "this game was hyped up so well but it truely sucks nads", I was annoyed. It looked like a very good game from the screenshots and gameplay vids! I even watched reviews on this game and all they do is bitch about the controls! WHAT!? They're usually saying "oh the graphics, gameplay and such are good but the controls F'IN SUCK!!" Get out! I read that the controls were an experimentation of what the six axxis control can truely do, and I'm thinking "I guess they got a point...". Eventually, I got my hands on a PS3 and this game, played it for a couple of days and...THE CONTROLS ARE NOT THAT GODDAMN BAD!!! Seriously, I found the controls to not be bad! Above-average at most! It was actually meant to be an experimentation in the six axxis controller, and it does work (about 90% of the time), so people have really gotta stop hating on the controls. They still hate on the controls when the patch to let you control with the analog stick came out. Did it...
Reviews are scored on a mark out of 40
Bionic Commando Rearmed got my interest after I stumbled upon the original. After a few hours playing I could see why it would have been such a great hit back in the 8-bit era. So after a few weeks of wondering how a more dated version of the game would be like, I loaded up the PSN network and decided to find out. Just to point out I wasn't even on my Mum & Dad's mind when this game out
Story:-
You the hero are Nathan Spencer. A special commando agent with a enhance bionic arm and grappling hook who is sent to rescue a captured ally and friend, Super Joe. Now forgive the estranged names for a moment. Originally the story was a lot more deep, featuring a cult of Nazi's attempting to resurrect Hitler. However this remake has been toned down and references to that plot are significantly less than before. Quite sad to be honest and it ends this section of my review short: 6.7/10
Gameplay:-
On the opposite side of the spectrum, the game play of...
The original Forbidden Siren game was released on the PS2 in 2004 to wildly mixed reviews. The UK's official PS2 magazine gave the game 9/10 and called it a masterpiece. By contrast, many other publications gave the game poor reviews, lambasting the horrible controls, pitiful voice acting and utterly confusing nature of the game in general. A sequel was released in 2006, which largely failed to improve on the failings of its predecessor. So when the announcement came that there was to be a PS3 version, and that it would be a remake of the first title, there was some groaning and eye-rolling to be witnessed amongst fans of survival horror. To immense relief then, the game has turned out to be not just "alright", but a real little gem, something that contemporary gamers can enjoy, as well as seasoned horror fans.
The game is only currently available on the Playstation Network and comes in an episodic format: Users can either pay for batches of three episodes, or download all twelve for a bargain price....
To paraphrase the well-known catechism "Rockstar giveth and Rockstar taketh away"....
A well-known gaming website gave Grand Theft Auto IV 10/10 upon its release, and awarded it 10/10 in each individual category. By contrast, almost every user review on the same site lambasted GTAIV as being 'boring', 'lame', 'overhyped', and some even went so far as to accuse professional reviewers of being bribed by Rockstar. But which is true? Is GTAIV a perfect piece of gaming magic? Or is it a boring overhyped slice of crap? Actually neither viewpoint is really accurate.
What you get out of GTAIV depends largely on what you expect from it. If you've played GTA:San Andreas to death and sat there thinking "Wow, the only thing cooler than this would be if you could like, watch TV in your safehouse and call up the other characters whenever you wanted to go out drinking!" Then you'll be in luck because those features have been added to the game. If you also thought "Wow, this game has way too many features, it...
Console based family/party games take several forms, the most popular being the recent instalment of music based games such as Guitar Hero or Rock Band. The Wii is also a lead contender in pumping out family games but it is hard to forget one of the Playstation’s classic titles; Buzz! If you are not familiar with the popular quiz series, Buzz is a quiz game that looks and feels just like a gameshow. Buzz: quiz TV is the newest addition to the series and instead of focusing on just one of the question categories like in previous instalments, it combines them all and offers new wireless buzzer remotes to give Buzz its well deserved thrust into next generation gaming.
Gameplay
Buzz is usually played between families and friends locally, each player trying to bag as many points as possible to win the game. There are four ways to play Buzz including a single player mode, local multiplayer mode, online multiplayer mode and a special MyBuzz mode. All of these selected modes have the same type of...
You made a good review, and yes I agreed, story sucks so bad, I give it a 3.9 would have been, 4.8 if the story was great. I thought the story would own, yhe trailer made it look epic. D:<
That was one very long read, but it was also a very informative one. I like your use of videos and images. This serves as a good guide for people trying to make a decision.
