Dead Space 2 surpasses the original in every way. 0
 AWESOME game. The first Dead Space was my 2008 GOTY and Dead Space 2 doesn't disappoint. I loved it so much that I had a mega marathon where I played from Chapter 5 to the end in one day. It's that damn good. The gameplay is much improved over the first game and everything seems faster. Isaac moves faster, aims faster and stomps faster. Isaac is less of a tank and feels more like a fighter which makes sense after the first game. Many of DS1's weapons return but most of them feature new alt fire...

999 Delivers on ALL Fronts! 37
I completed the game with all the endings during a weekend marathon and it was a AMAZING experience. This is one of the most well-written, well planned and most thought-provoking games I've played this year. In fact, it's probably one of my all time fave games in the patheon of awesome story-focused games. Why? Let me explain.The game is filled with a cast of amazing characters and concepts that will make your head spin. Not only are the characters all distinctive and interesting, but they're al...

It's a God of War clone but it's an excellent clone. 0
 Contrary to what many reviewers have said, I found the game extremely fun and enjoyable. It's a GoW clone for sure but it's an excellent clone. The game has pretty tight controls and some really fun powers and moves. The only part of the game that frustrated me were some of the level designs. There were too many death falls which was totally unnecessary. They also have some pretty annoying timed puzzles but they were few and far in-between, thankfully. Trial and error levels should not b...

Uncharted 2 is one of the best games ever. 0
 I completed Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (PS3) on Normal mode. WOWOWOWOW. What an awesome adventure. Everything you've heard is true. This is one of the best games ever! The production values are through the roof. Uncharted 2 basically takes everything that was good from the first Uncharted and ramps it up ten-fold. The graphics are absolutely gorgeous. I found myself staring at the locations and examining everything. The water effects are some of the finest I've ever seen. The lighting an...

Fun fun fun, and oh wait...did I say fun? :) 0
What an awesome game! The final 4-5 missions were just plain epic. Nice satisfying ending too. I was quite surprised with what new mission types they added near the end. So the ability to destroy any building and vehicles was just plain fun. But what really surprised me were the large variety of mission types. Even if the mission types were the same, the way you approach each one is different. Even the main missions have their own unique missions from time to time that kept things fresh. It was ...

A fun and addictive game that features solid gameplay. 0
I finished the game as Good on Medium mode and I went back and finished the game as Evil on Hard mode. Really fun game with a great satisfying ending. It's really interesting to see what was different when you played each side. I was sorta disappointed that most cutscenes were unchanged between both sides though. Oh well. But I liked the many poses that Cole does which looks like an obvious homage to Spider-Man. Hell, I would say inFamous is the best Spider-Man game without swinging. The voice a...

Halo Wars is a good starter into the RTS genre. 0
Pretty short game cuz it ended just when the game was getting good. I had played through all the Act 1 missions in Heroic mode without any major problems. But the Act II missions in Heroic were pretty hard. I decided to give up and dial it back down to Normal so I can finish the campaign and enjoy the story. The game was enjoyable although quite simple for a RTS veteran like myself. The controls were incredibly easy to work with and I kinda liked them. I wish choosing a small portion of your un...

A very unique game that everyone can enjoy. 0
It's a relatively short game that will probably take most players 1-2 hours to beat depending on how much you want to explore the world. It's by the same developers of flOw so the same simple design and look applies here. But Flower plays more like a game since it actually has objectives and challenges, unlike flOw.The story, if you can call it that, is very surreal and simple. There are no voice-overs or text. Everything plays out in short cutscenes with music and sound effects. It's a very sub...

Great game with a diverse cast of characters and a complex story. 0
WOW, what an amazing story! Yakuza 2 improves upon everything I loved about the first game and then some. Graphics are improved with more detailed models, especially for the faces. Many characters look quite realistic and their facial animations are very life-like and subtle. The lip syncs are spot on as well. Considering how good they look in a PS2 game, it makes me wonder why other developers on the current gen systems can't achieve the same level as detail as this game. Graphics ain't perfec...

Fable II is incredibly addictive and better than the first Fable. 0
This game is friggin addictive! It's tons better than the first game and really fun. I couldn't stop playing it cuz there are soooo many sidequests. I didn't even complete them all when I finished the main quest.The graphics are uber gorgeous. While the character models could've been more detailed, the world looks amazing. I was especially impressed by the art direction and lighting. I found myself sometimes stopping to stare at the beautiful locations. The colors really pop and the world is jus...

Incredibly immersive and ultra polished. 0
WOW, what an amazing game! This is definitely one of the best games out there. I'm not a fan of many horror games but Dead Space's presentation and gameplay made me love it just as much as other horror games like Resident Evil 4 and Bioshock.The first thing that instantly grabbed me were the beautiful graphics and in-game HUD. The game looks terrific and it's filled with lots of detail. The ship's levels are eerie and dark in some spots and bright and colorful in other spots. You can sense the h...

Fantastic! 0
Prince of Persia: SoT was excellent from beginning to end. It's highly immersive with some excellent puzzles and platforming. The level design is extremely logical and fun to solve. The levels are challenging but it's not impossible like most other games of this type. I was able to beat it without a faq so that shows that anybody can figure out this game. The difficulty isn't high and the game is very forgiving. The save points are numerous enough that you won't be frustrated if you die and the ...

A truly fun and exciting experience. 0
First, let me tell you that I'm NOT a Resident Evil fan. I bought the original RE game way back when it first came out due to the word of mouth. The game frightened me a lot when I played it as a kid but I felt disappointed by the lanky controls and horrible item/save features. I never played any of the later RE games because I didn't have a good experience with the original. Now here comes Resident Evil 4, the game that turned me back into a fan. I was utterly impressed by the quality and sc...

A truly cinematic experience. 0
GREAT game. I really enjoyed the story. One of the best I ever played. Very original with a lot of depth and great dialogue, I love the mature themes. The voice acting and music are awesome. The multiple outcomes will have me playing it again very soon just to enjoy the story again. The only negative is that the graphics could've been better, The colors look bland and washed out. If only it had better lighting and maybe a better graphics engine in general, it would've been an even better game ...

Limited Edition reviewed. 0
(I'm focusing on the entire Limited Edition package in this review so if you're curious, read on.) Halo 2 is a hit or miss game depending how much of a fan you are. I've been a huge fan of Halo ever since the original came out and it was the first game I got for the Xbox and the only reason I got the Xbox in the first place. So after three long years waiting for the inevitable sequel, did the game satisfy me? Yes and no. Let's get down to the gameplay, Halo 2 is still a lot of fun. The core ga...

A generic FPS game with some good ideas. 0
Resistance is an interesting FPS game with some good ideas but the execution is a bit uneven. I was excited to try out Sony's potential killer app but it seems maybe my expectations were too high. The first thing you'll notice are the graphics. While sharp and solid, the art direction is fairly generic. The majority of the game is very reminiscent of other WW2 shooters such as Medal of Honor and Call of Duty. There are a lot of browns and greens throughout the game except for a couple of chapte...

A decent FPS game with some fun moments and plenty of repetition. 0
It was a decent experience with some fun missions in certain spots in the single player mode. The missions were a bit repetitive during the first half of the game while the second half mixed it up more with a larger variety of vehicles and weapons. The last mission was just insane and if it weren't for the multiplayer-type respawning feature, I would've tossed my controller at the TV screen. Yea, so I have mixed reactions about the game in general. The graphics are gorgeous. The character model...
