Mortal Kombat: Armageddon

Mortal Kombat: Armageddon was released a few days ago, October 9TH, 2006, on the Xbox and PS2. What a disappointment! Where do I start first with, the graphics are outdated (Yes I know the PS2 is really old and outdated, but it was no different on the Xbox ether), the sound effects are terrible and both the graphics and sounds are recycled from previous games of this series.

The game feels almost like it's the last game released and not a new one. I rate it a 6.8, I wouldn't buy it even if your a big fan of the Mortal Kombat series, instead rent it as this game won't offer you much fun.

Scarface: The World Is Yours

Scarface: The World Is Yours was released today, October 8TH, 2006, on the PS2, PC and Xbox. Like the name suggests, the game is based on Scarface the movie, but the game doesn't start where the movie does, but starts where the movie ends. In the movie Tony Montana is killed in the end by a guy that comes from behind him, but the game rewrites that, where you don't die.

You start from the bottom again, you lost everything, the money, drugs and respect. In the game it's your goal to regain all that back and take what's yours. Many of the missions can feel boring and pointless, as if they had nothing to do with the story. And same with much of the storyline.

The nice thing they did was keep loading to a minimum, you can explore an open-ended map that lets you go in and out of buildings without any loading screens popping up. If you hit the talk button Tony starts cursing at people, it's quite enjoyable and funny to do. Overall the game had a few holes, but overall it's a fun game, I rate it a 7.5.

Madden NFL 07

Madden NFL 07 was realeased today, August 22ND, 2006, on PS2, PSP, PC, Xbox, GameCube, GBA and Xbox 360. Madden NFL 07 didn't live up to the series past games, though it's not worst than provous ones of the series, they didn't add much to the game. I rate it a 8.0, only worth renting if you have last year's Madden game.

NCAA Football 2007

NCAA Football 2007 was released today, July 18, 2006, for PS2, PSP, Xbox 360 and Xbox. NCAA Football is back and doesn't improve much from the past games in the series. I rate it 8.8, worth buying if you like football or NCAA sports.

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories was released today, June 6TH, 2006, for PS2. GTA game makers take you back to Liberty City, though this time as Toni Cipriani. Although a break-through for PSP, wasn't so great for PS2. It's almost like a add-on to GTA 3, where new guns and vehicles are added. Graphics are terrible though, as this was ported from the PSP.

You won't recognize any of the music because it was custom made for the game. The music isn't real bad, but is good ether. They could have got a few songs back from the late 90s to use on the game, but since it was made for PSP before being brought to PS2 may explain why they did it this way, most people are not likely to care about the music in a game while playing it on the PSP.

The voices and sound are exactly what you would expect from GTA, they were done very well, but this time they didn't have any famous people doing the voices like with the other GTA games. The storyline at times was boring and pointless. The storyline is also shorter than the other GTA games, but likely was due to the limitations on the PSP. Overall I rate this game a 8.5, If you like the GTA 3, you'll like this one as well. You also can't beat the price.

Hitman: Blood Money

Hitman: Blood Money was released today, May 30, 2006, for PS2, PC, Xbox and Xbox 360. The newest Hitman game does a good job of keeping the old features, while making them better and adding new ones to the game. The AI is a little weak, but not as bad as it has been in previous games of the series and many other games are thousands of times worse than this game's AI.

The storyline is good and unlike the other games in the series is open-ended. After Each mission is completed you get a daily newspapper, which sums up the crime you commited, it really makes the game feel more a alive. The graphics are far better than what they were before, but on the Xbox 360 a little behide other games. Overall I rate this game 8.3, Blood Money is really worth your money.

The Godfather

The Godfather was released today, March, 21ST, 2006, on the PS2, PC, PSP and XBOX. The Godfather gets it's name from the movie and is based on it. The Godfather puts you in the role of a character that didn't appear in the film, but however played a important role in the story. Your father was a loyal business man to the Godfather and gets gunned down by a rival mob. The Godfather takes you under his wings as your mother has asked the Don to.

Sound and graphics are not the greatest, but they don't hurt the game ether. While the music isn't anything like what we've seen on GTA games, it still sets well with the game, the music is what you expect from a mob game or movie. The storyline is long and can be challenging enough to keep it going. The map big and does a good job of looking like New York in the 1940s.


Overall I rate this game a 8.6, anyone the likes GTA type games should have this apart of their game collection.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence

Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence was released yesterday, March, 14, 2006, for PS2. As if the game couldn't get much better, they made a ton of improvements to graphics, features and sounds. For the the first time ever you can experience Metal Gear online and play with up to 7 friends at once. It adds a third-person camera perspective, which in my opinion makes the game many times better than before.

You can go back to the old camera view if you though, but the new camera view will be the default camera angle used in the game. Graphics are outstanding, great detail to characters and the environment. Overall I world rate this game a 9.2, one of those games everyone should have, unless of course your too young to play it.

MLB '06: The Show

MLB '06: The Show was released today, Feburary, 28, 2006, for PS2 and PSP. MLB '06 features many of the same playing modes from the previous games, Franchise mode, Season mode, Exhibition mode, Rivalry mode, Career mode and new mini game, King of the Diamond, where pitcher and batter square off in classic playground duels. Rivalry mode lets you set up and maintain heated rivalries between multiple gamers.

Overall I rate this game a 8.8, if you like sport games you should get this game.

Fight Night Round 3

Fight Night Round 3 was released today for PS2, PSP, Xbox and Xbox 360 and it delivers what you would expect from the game series. It features many of the same playing modes from the previous games, such as career, play now, online multi-player modes and now offers the all-new ESPN Classic mode, which allows you to fight in some of the biggest matches in boxing history.

Graphics are soild with amazing models, many unique animations and many other things. The voice acting and sound is great as well. When you hear boxers on the game get hit it almost sounds like your there in the ring. Overall I rate this 8.5, if you like boxing you got to have this game.

State of Emergency 2

State of Emergency 2 was a step back from the first State of Emergency, as the storyline is lame and the graphics are outdated. The voice acting was even worse than the first one as well. Overall I rate this game a even 5.0, not even worth renting or buying unless you can get it for under 5 bucks..

MVP 06 NCAA Baseball

MVP 06 NCAA Baseball was released today. If you like baseball, you should like this game. The game play is great with features such as dynasty mode, quick game, scenario mode, batting and pitching mini games. The game modes are identical to those included in last year's MVP Baseball 2005.

The graphics are great, tons of unique play animations that looks beautiful. The voice acting wasn't great and gets repetitive fast during game play. Other bad thing about the game is all players are fictional and not real collage players. Overall I give it a 7.9 rating, worth playing.
