Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Review

I have been a long time player of the metal gear series all the way back to when he debuted on the Nintendo Entertainment System. This game is not the final mission of Solid Snake. I beg to differ, may I say something a little cliched? It is only the beginning. This latest edition to the Metal Gear series sets the tone for the "final battle" between long foes. Snake has aged in the game series to an old man; but fear not later in the game you can unlock the face-camo that shows snake as a young snake. You travel from continent to another tracking liquid and trying to finally find him. You meet up with familier allies: Colonel, Raiden, Otacon, Sunny, Meryl, Zero, Solidus, Liquid, Vamp to name a few. But this game holds non-stop action. You will finally be revealed the reason why Snake is aging so quickly. Be on guard for a lot of cut-scenes cuz Hideo Kojima displays a lot of in between "mini movies" so the actual gametime is really approx. 2-3 hrs of actual time if you stormed through it without stealth. But for those of you who are die-hard Metal Gear fans who grew up with the series back in the mid 1980's era you will want this.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Feature

• Although little is known, MGS4 is being touted as the final installment in the Metal Gear Solid series.
• Chameleon-like camouflage system, Octacamo, blends Snake into his surroundings.
• Loads of characters from previous Metal Gear Solid installments will return in this final chapter.
• Slated for simultaneous worldwide release in June 2008, Konami has released very few details about MGS4.
• Built for the PS3, the game is expected to be the finest representation of the console's graphics

Prince Of Persia Le X360

Prince Of Persia Le X360 Review

I actually agree with most of the other reviews here. This game does not hold a candle to the sands of time series in gameplay, character appeal, or story. So separating it from those masterpieces, what do you have?

Prince of Persia is a visually stunning game that does eventually make the game more of the fantasy I believe the developers intended. You can indeed find yourself stopping in points in the game just to look around at the beautiful background scenery.

The story works but is a bit shallow. And the ending? I won't spoil it, but I am amazed that some people actually enjoyed the ending. I found it to be one of the most disappointing endings in recent years, one that makes you wonder why you played the game in the first place.

Character appeal: Elika is your Farah from the sands of time series, and she works very nicely into this game. She grows on you quite fast, and is very likeable. The dialogue between her and the prince, which is incredibly redundant and annoying at the beginning of the game, develops into a intimate tension between the two as the game proceeds. The prince, in my opinion, is the biggest disappointment. He is not a prince, more like a nomadic thief, and has a dull and sarcastic personality. Elika, which is also quite beautiful and looks great in the game, is a deep contrast to the prince, which looks like a homeless bum wearing a long red scarf in an old arabian village. The out of place red scarf, which he states he wears for luck, covers part of one eye and looks like something a failed 80's rocker would wear. Your best bet is too change into the skins that you can unlock with codes on the menu screen, so that you don't have to deal with the stupid personality AND the stupid appearance of the prince.

Gameplay reminds you of the old series, with wallruns and climbs and swings. There is a couple new maneuvering techniques such as roof climbing and using elika to double jump. It does take you back to the series but with a slightly new feel, which works great. The game takes an interesting approach to dying though. You can't die. No matter what you do, elika will save you and you will start back on solid ground before you "almost died." This takes away some frustration, but also takes away the accomplishment and excitement that could be present.

Overall, I still like the game, and you can download the epilogue from xbox live, which is an alternate ending of sorts (I am having problems with loading the epilogue saved games at times though). It is also much more challenging than anything in the game. If you are a diehard fan of the series and assassins creed type, and can separate this game on it's own, I think you will enjoy it as well.

Assassin's Creed: Director's Cut Edition

Assassin's Creed: Director's Cut Edition Review

Assassin's Creed. Wow, what an amazing game. You've got a good story, gameplay, graphics, and its open world. What more can you ask for? Yes there are a few bugs but nothing you couldn't get past. This is my review of Assassin's Creed.

Story 10/10 - The Date, September 2010. You play as Desmond Miles who was kidnapped by Abstergo. He is being forced to use a machine called The Animus which is a machine that reaches inside the genetic memory of ones ancestors. Attempting to reach the memory needed Desmond's mind blocks it. He has to now become his ancestor Altiar. His life takes place in the Third Crusade 1191 AD and is part of a clan that follows The Assassin's Creed. Altiar breaks the creed and is stripped of his rank. He has to now redeem himself by doing taks that his master gives him in the cities of Damascus, Acre and Jerusalem. Along the way as Desmond and Altiar you find out what secrets and betrayals. What is it Abstergo is looking for? Play and find out.

Gameplay 7/10 - The gameplay is something new. As Altiar you take the abilities of the Assassins. Free Running (Parkour), weapons (Swords, Hidden Blades, Throwing Knives), and the hits. They usually concist of, climb to the top of this, rescue some people here, easedrop, pickpocket, and beat up. It becomes tedious after awhile due to having to do that just to get to your target that needs to be assassinated. But not enough to make you give up. The free running is amazing, sword fighting is fun, and so on. When introuble you can either run out of site, hide, or blend in as a monk.

Graphics 9/10 - Next Gen graphics are here. The enviorment is amazing and beautiful, detail in face and voice acting is on hit. The game looks beautiful and the music goes well with what is going on. The only flaw you may see are a few things bugging like his lower tunic, but that's far and few.

Overall 8/10 - The game is a classic and is a great start in the trilogy. I enjoyed playing Assassin's Creed and is great for replay. I did it mostly for the Achievements. Things become repetative but moving past that it had a sold great story, looked amazing and was a wonderful play. Assassin's Cred gets a 8/10. If you enjoyed this game look for the newer titles Assassin's Creed II which is already out in stores and Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood out in stores November 2010.

Metroid: Other M

Metroid: Other M Review

Lets start by saying that although I own almost every Metroid game,with the exceptions of Metroid II and Hunters,I'm hardly the biggest Metroid fan out there,and I guess that allowed me to enjoy this game for what it is,a solid action game.While I have played and finished the excellent Prime Trilogy,and Super Metroid various times,I believe that Other M has become my favorite game in the series,simply because it is a very good game,with great graphics,a solid,albeit slightly convoluted story,fun and fast paced gameplay,and an excellent orchestrated score.

A big issue with many players seems to the be the control scheme,I barely had any problems with it at all.Sure,at the beginning changing between 1st and 3rd person will feel a little awkward,but as you play on they become a non-issue,at least to me they did.As for the whole "switching views during boss fights" concern,the big majority of boss fights rarely require you to use your missiles during the regular fight,but when they do the boss will always have a brief moment when they stagger after repeated assault with the power beam,or when they start charging some sort of beam or attack,which gives you an opening to use your missiles,which means that you're not supposed to try to use your missiles in a "willy nilly" manner.As for clearing a room full of enemies,dodging and using your charged power beam will clear the room with no problems,especially when you get the first improvement for the Power Beam,and onward.

While I understand that opinions will always runt the gamut from "terrible" to "excellent" in anything in life,but in my honest opinion,this is "excellent".Maybe over time,the "This is not Super Metroid 2,which is what I wanted" feeling will turn into "This is a great Metroid on its own right",which is what happened with the great Prime Trilogy.Now,off to finish getting all the items in the game.

Metroid: Other M Feature

• Metroid - Other M takes the best elements of 1st-person and 3rd-person gaming to create a seamless blend between game play, story-telling and dynamic cinematography, that feels like a movie you can control; you can hold the Wii Remote controller sideways while navigating and battling in 3rd-person; however, at any moment, you can switch immediately to Wii Remote pointer controls to examine and explore the environments in 1st-person perspective
• Metroid fans know more about Samus' suits and weapons than they do about what drives her; that's about to change, the story begins immediately following the events of Super Metroid, when a baby Metroid gave its life to protect Samus, with voice acting and a rich story, you will learn the engaging back-story of Samus as she weaves through an action-packed adventure aboard the Bottle Ship, a decommissioned space facility; as she hurtles into this new adventure, Samus will encounter her first men
• The development of Metroid - Other M is an exciting collaboration between Nintendo's Yoshio Sakamoto and Team Ninja; Sakamoto was the director of Super Metroid in 1994; Team Ninja is the renowned action developer of Ninja Gaiden. Metroid - Other M pairs Sakamoto's expert level design and exploratory focus of the classic Metroid series with Team Ninja's signature stylish, no-holds-barred action

Metroid: Other M Overview

Metroid Franchise’s Heroine Gets Personal. For decades, Samus Aran has been known as one of the first female protagonists in video games and one of the most enigmatic. Having traded her haunted past for the solitary life of a bounty hunter, Samus finally tells her own tale in this revealing, personal story of her failings, her flaws and ultimately her motivation. Metroid: Other M is an unprecedented collaboration that blends the slick, action-packed production of the world-renowned Team Ninja development team with the game design talents of the creators of the original Metroid. Metroid: Other M is a dramatic new direction for a legendary franchise and a bold new blend between cinematics, storytelling and the best in interactive entertainment.
