Ok, so maybe Mass Effect 2 has taken away some of my focus. The good news is that I beat it yesterday. All in all, it has an interesting story while eliminating a lot of the tediousness of the original. I still think the load times are far too long, but ultimately I liked it. It’s [...]
Halo Reach’s first substantial trailer was shown yesterday on the VGAs on SpikeTV. While there’s no gameplay shown, the game certainly is looking like a squad-based multiplayer game. 6-player co-op campaign would be pretty incredible especially if this game is an all out war like the books and lure depict. I’m definitely looking forward to [...]
Beat Modern Warfare 2 this past Friday. It definitely isn’t as short as some say (4 hours) but maybe I just took awhile since I played through on Hardened right off the bat. MW2′s campaign is sort of like a big-budget action flick – there’s not much character development and the story is suspect, but [...]
I got Modern Warfare for PS3 on Sunday. I’ve only played it for a few hours, but have enjoyed it thus far. I don’t know if the game really lives up to all the hype, but it’s certainly an excellent online multiplayer game. I’ve heard the campaign is super short. Personally, I’ve played it for [...]
After 2 long years of Xbox 360 Enjoyment, I was stabbed in the back by the system that has brought me so much pleasure. 2 Days ago, I was struck by the red ring of death. I can’t imagine that anything in particular set this unfortunate series of events in motion…I guess I am just [...]
—-SPOILERS AHEAD—- Well, a huge ship crashing into Raiden didn’t kill him after all. He returns in Act 5 without arms to help out Snake once again. Act 5 is definitely the shortest (gameplay wise) and most disappointing act so far. Again, MGS4 misses its opportunity to create a “classic” sneaking mission on the arsenal [...]
Well the new locales and diversity of graphics continue. Gameplay changes once again as well and focuses on sneaking and fighting mechanized opponents. —-SPOILER ALERT—-Act 4 takes us back to Metal Gear Solid 1 to Shadow Moses in pursuit of Metal Gear Rex. Act 4 has a lot of nostalgic moments, but the best was [...]
——-SPOILER ALERT—-So Act 3 definitely takes MGS4 into both another unrevealed locale and featured practically no cutscenes featured in any of the trailers (minus the shot of Big Mama in the church) so beware of spoilers. ——–SPOILERS START HERE——– So after finishing off Laughing Octopus in Act 2 and a daring escape w/ Drebin, Raiden, [...]
Well Act I pretty much closed with Liquid driving all the soldiers crazy as seen in another trailer. This led to the next mission briefing which featured a scared Naomi Hunter on a handheld camera. Act 2 takes us to South America in search of Naomi Hunter. This locale is very reminiscent of MGS3: Snake [...]
I have fought the Frogs and lived to tell about it. That’s about as far as I have made it into Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots campaign, so don’t worry there will be no spoilers. In fact, I don’t think I have seen a cutscene yet that hasn’t been included in one [...]
