Apparently, it's indie/adventure game week having a plethora of games shown in recent Quicklooks from The Next Big Thing, Fancy Pants, Hector to Gemini Rue. It goes about saying that it's a great two weeks full of games that you actually want to play, having said that Mortal Kombat and Portal 2 (Conduit 2 also) came out the same day/week. I rarely played a indie game, much less an adventure game before really and from what I gathered through these indie games is that two of them; Hector and ...

My growing hatred for stupid-ass platformers design for idiots who either "want to be the guy" or just want to show the world that he is capable of beating that game even though stupidly jumping off a cliff/spike again and again and again and accomplishing nothing, only gaining the fact that you repeatedly kept on loading save states, hearing people whine over Youtube about how hard the game is to bitching to the comments that they have so few, building up a defense mechanism of yelling to t...

There aren't many World War Two Shooters that centre around realism. Developers tend to send out a game each year with a lack of new features or lies that it feels more "realistic" than you seen before. It is a sort of deceiving people which new game to buy and the consumers feel pressured on buying that game. Well I can't blame everyone who buys WWII Shooters that has the same derivative game-play and the "quality" of realism. I usually buy that game because it somewhat merits quality fun to...

Recently I have been searching for games that I used to play before getting into console gaming. I have digged out old copies out some of the games that I have played before and others that are still missing. One of those games is Neverwinter Nights. This game didn't get me into RPG but the game itself got me into playing hours upon hours of this game. It's satisfying to even play this game again, everything from the game-play, cinematic and soundtrack proves to be awesome and epic. These wer...

Since Gun and Call of Juarez, there isn't any good western-theme adventure/action games that derives from broken gameplay and bad handling on controls. Games like Call of Juarez had proven to be quite unique due to its dueling feature and a first person view that feels fitting for my tastes towards this genre. When Rockstarannounced Red Dead Redemption - like other Rockstar games, everyone is always hyped for it and pumped because its potential for being the best western-game yet, and the bes...

Persona 3 Portable Impressions

  

Anyways when they announced Persona 3 is coming on the PSP, I was quite stoked that I could finally play Persona 3 after not purchasing it three years ago. And since then, Atlus has changed the game and compressed it into a portable device, sacrificing some things but compensating it for another. I was eager to purchase this game as I didn't pre-order knowing that it will only come with Junpei's lame hat and not the soundtrack which was implemented within the f...

I forgot to write about my impressions about the Kinect, I brought it last month and been loving it since. However it took me awhile to find a Kinect in my area, going to Walmart, Bestbuy and EB since November and it has been sold out, and the fact that people wait in line before the Bestbuy opens and snatch all the Kinect and hearing that it isn't sold out their websites is irritating and annoying, wasting all my time to go there and expecting nothing in return.

I was reluctant to purchase Borderlands due to not having Xbox Live so I could play with other people and quickly level up. That's the whole appeal of that game, which is kinda like WoW. Also the fact that Jeff has been talking a ton of Borderlands and saying that it's more fun to play with people than alone - having a higher leveled character helping out lower leveled characters. Seeing QLs after QLs, sometimes I thought that this game is quite dull, setting on a Wasteland and not much inter...

I'm not really a fan of the first Two Worlds, the dialogue and acting as well as some merits of the gameplay and controls are the things that put me off that game. And the fact that I'm astounded of how people liked that game even though it's entirely broken. Recently Two Worlds II (repetition) was released and I want to try it to see if they had improved the problems of the previous games. 
 
So I brought this game in hopes that it would be better but what I got is kinda the same minus a fe...

I was quite skeptical about Bioware's new direction towards Dragon Age II. From the looks of the demo to numerous interviews, they overhull much of the combat, gameplay and dialogue to feel more like Mass Effect and less Dragon Age. I had written a blog regarding these new features; different art designs with the graphical interface to techtrees that resemble a web of sorts that you can pick your preferable skill type like in WoW. These new features are a mixed bag for me, before and now ...

What You've Been Playing? - Fate of Two Racists Edition  

 
Instead of writing separate blogs about my impressions, here is a blog about two games that I've been playing. I talked before about playing Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds but didn't write about it. 
  

Marvel vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds 

  
  

I have never been much of a fighting game dude but I'm much of an admirer of watching them though I don't watch competitions like EVO and it doesn't help me learn how to play a fighting g...
