Crysis This game is a lot of fun until the aliens show up, then it feels a little more of a chore to play. Not helped by the lack of ending. It also somewhat lacking in the weapon selection. It's expansion, warhead is even more fun to play, but suffers from the same problems. It's Farcry on on steroids and superpowers. Never get tried of throwing Koreans at shacks. Modern Warfare 2 singleplayer I like the first game better. This game feels like it jumps the shark a little with the story and it just jumps around too much to stay cohesive. You play as a total of 4(5) different people and it just gets confusing who you are and where you are within the story at any moment. That said, when the game is good, it's really good. But there are some pretty deep lows. Dawn of War 2 This game is a real blast to play. In terms of unit count, it's a much smaller game than it's predecessors, but the amount of tactical control is much greater giving a much more satisfying experience when you destroy foes more powerful than you. In the campaign mode there isn't any resources beside strategic assets and wargear you can capture and equip on your squad. So instead of quickly teching up and sending in massive waves of Marines, you pick which of your squads you deploy and off you go. The fastest missions can be completed in 5 minutes, while the longest can be about 20. One small issue around the endgame is that your can get some really powerful wargear and pretty much start throwing aways tactics by rushing the closest xenos. |

Might as well take a crack at this. Short blurbs, no score. Rabbids Go Home Very hilarious game, but can get on the repetitive side at times. Shows what happens when UbiSoft gets their **** together to make a competent game that Wii owners (aka us) will play. Super Mario Galaxy SMB3 in 3D. Yoshiaki Koizumi is a force to be reckoned with. Metroid Prime Trilogy All three Metroid Prime games, with the first two getting much needed Wii FPS controls. A must have for anyone who never owned the GCN games. |

Eternal Darkness: 8/10 Love it. LOVE IT. Combat is a little middling (anytime you face a Horror, it's not great), but the story is fantastic. The game is begging for a proper Wii remake. Wario Land: Shake It (9/10) Going back through, getting all the secret maps. God, this is an incredible piece of software. |

Final Fantasy 7 - 7.5/10 - Yeah, I've been replaying this old game for the first time in about a decade, and contrary to all the complaints it's not all the different in the PS1 version (via PSN on PS3) than the PC version I played (yeah, One Winged Angel plays with vocals in the final fight...big frickin' deal considering I usually kill him by the time the vocals really kick in). Despite my growing dislike for this game over the years due to the overwhelming number of fanboys this game has (who always whine every time a new Final Fantasy game is announced that isn't a remake of FF7), replaying the game I was relieved to see that the "fun, but dumb" game I played all those years ago still holds up..somewhat. The gameplay's as moderately entertaining as ever, there's plenty of stuff to find (including killing the Weapons, which I actually did this time...ouch), and the graphics hold up better than you'd expect given the PS1's complete incompetence at rendering good-looking 3D models. The story's just as mind-numbingly stupid and obtuse as ever, though, and the pacing in the cutscenes is agonizingly slow. Still a decent enough romp, though. |

WiiWare - Muscle March - 4/5 I found Muscle March to be a fantastic, over the top, cooky game. For 500 wii points (5 dollars), It is great fun and extremely funny in sometimes an uncomfortable way. You have a very simple concept that is performed in a very simple way. The game does tend to be short and very simple, but do not forget how much you spent. 5 dollars... Up to 4 player madness and simple gameplay makes this game more than worth the price. The only gripe I could have with this title is the unresponsive controls, but that is to blame the controller not the game. If you can get past watching but shaking action with your characters, I feel you can easily find enjoyment out of this title. Just do not do the actual poses the character does, it doesnt work... |
