Gran Turismo 5 Review

2012-08-01T17:41:00.000-07:00

Gran Turismo 5 is the 5th game in this racing Simulation series. This 5th edition comes with new aspects to factor in just like if you were actually driving a car like weather and wind speeds. GT5 doesn't really have a story line and is basically just a SIM game. It does come with a somewhat single player mode where you race on different tracks against computer and earn money to buy and tune up cars. Also it does have multiplayer mode to race friends locally and random people online. But there are a couple downfalls to this game. Firstly crashing in this game does nothing, no bumps, scratches or dents even when crashing at over 250mph! That is 1 of the un realisetic parts. And another downfall is the lack of storyline and race types. Unlike the Burnout or Need for Speed series', GT5 only offers strictly lap racing. No elimination or objective modes. And also you cannot smash your opponents off the track. For all these downfalls i rate this game a 2/5 stars. Not recommended for hardcore gamers but maybe for people who enjoy just a normal racing only game.

Lord of the Rings: Conquest Review

2012-08-01T17:40:00.000-07:00

Lord of the Rings: Conquest is the newest lord of the rings games and is played in a very different perspective. Instead of being played from the heroes point-of-view (Aragon, Legolas etc.) you are actually playing from the soldiers point-of-view. It is all the same story line with the battle of Helm`s Deep and attacking Isengard but from the perspective of many different types of soldiers. You can play as the basic swordsman or an archer with many different types of arrows (poison, fire, multi-shot) a mage with also many cool attacks such as healing powers, lightening strike, rings of fire and a deflector shield and finally you can play as a scout/assassin which can turn invisible to sneak up on people. This is a very fun game with the epic award-winning story line of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. You battle Orcs and Goblins all the way to Mordor and destroy the Great Eye. There is also a Multiplayer feature for this game where you can play online or offline with friends and play games on different maps. 1 team is humans or elves and the other is orcs. In all i give this game a 3.5/5 star rating because of the epic Lord of the Rings storyline and also the new perspective this game is played from compared to other LOTR games. This is a definite must have for any LOTR fans.

Brave (Movie) Review

2012-07-30T18:43:00.000-07:00

     The movie Brave is about a princess who doesn't want to be one. Merida is the first in line to her fathers scottish kingdom. But there are many responsibilities to being a princess and Merida does not want to be a part of them. A princess has to strive for perfection but Merida would rather have freedom. She can ride horses and shoot arrows better than any of the boys. When all of the clans come together for a competition for Merida she ends up proving her point by beating them at their own game. Merida wants to change her fate so she finds a witch to make her a spell to change her mom (which would change her fate). It ends up turning her into a bear and the queen almost gets killed by her husband the king. But inside that bear is still the heart and soul of the queen. She needs to get changed back before sunrise or sh will stay a bear forever. It ends with the queen getting changed back to her normal self and their family was happy again. Merida realized that the queen really cares about her and they began to fully understand each other.

     Brave is a great movie for kids but has alot of action and may not be appropriate for children below 9. Although it is still rated G it requires alot more maturity than Cars. Brave isn't only a great story is teaches a great lesson and how sometimes things can go wrong. Which is why I am giving this movie a 3.5 out of 5 rating.

Batman: Arkham City Review

2012-07-28T21:14:00.000-07:00

With the newest and even more thrilling release of Batman:Arkham City, even more action packed, combat filled levels have been added. The gadgets previously used in the first game return in Arkham City. Most of these gadgets have improved or boast new capabilities; for example, the Cryptographic Sequencer can also track signals, the line launcher now can be deployed as a tightrope and has a feature that allows Batman to flip over and launch another zipline, switching directions. The remote control Batarang now has a built in brake and boost, and the grappling gun can now be used while gliding to boost Batman further up into the air. There are also new gadgets such as smoke pellets to confuse armed enemies when spotted by them, the Remote Electrical Charge, a taser gun used to power generators and shock enemies, ice grenades used to freeze enemies and make pathways through water, and a signal disruptor used to jam firearms and detonate enemy explosives. The events of Arkham City take place one year after Arkham Asylum. Quincy Sharp, former warden of Arkham Asylum, has taken credit for stopping the Joker's Asylum takeover, and used the notoriety to become mayor of Gotham City. At a press conference held by Bruce Wayne to declare his opposition to Arkham City, Wayne is arrested by Hugo Strange's TYGER mercenaries and is imprisoned in Arkham City. Strange discloses his knowledge of Wayne's dual identity as Batman before putting him in with the criminals. While Strange prepares to launch "Protocol 10", Wayne gets his crime-fighting equipment via airdrop from Alfred Pennyworth, allowing Wayne to become Batman. As Batman, he first saves Catwoman from being executed by Two-Face, who hopes to gain respect with her murder. After Joker attempts to assassinate Catwoman, Batman tracks him to his hideout in the Sionis Steelworks, believing Joker may know the truth behind Protocol 10. I rate this game a 4.5/5 and a definate must-buy because of its intrecate levels and plot and all of the cool changes to the weapons and gadgets that batman gets to use which is 1 of the biggest and coolest parts of the game.

Batman: Arkham Asylum Review

2012-07-25T14:34:00.000-07:00

The 2009 release of DC-comics first Batman game. Arkham Asylum is an intense action-adventure game where you play Batman and are trying to foil the Jokers plans. This game is played in a 3rd person perspective just like most other action adventure games such as Infamous. In the storyline of Arkham Asylum , Batman catches Joker and sends him to jail. Since there was a fire at Gotham`s Blackgate Prison, the Joker and many of his thugs are moved to Arkham. The security of Arkham is overridden by Harley Quinn allowing the Joker to escape. Then the hunt is on for Batman to recapture the Joker and put him behind bars. This game is very action packed with lots of Hand-to-Hand combat situations and of course getting to use all of Batman`s cool gadgets such as the classic Batarang, explosive gel, a grappling gun, the Batclaw and even a zipline launcher! These gadgets give Batman the ability to jump high swing from different places and even glide with his giant bat like cape. With the Joker`s plans becoming even more evil a twisted you must use your timing and intellect to defeat him. I rank 4/5 because of the intense combat, creative storyline and of course just because you get to be Batman! The newest game in this series was released recently. Check out my review on the newer Batman: Arkham City.

Minecraft Review

2012-07-18T21:22:00.001-07:00

Minecraft may not be the most intense game or most graphically advanced but it is sure very popular! Millions and millions of people have bought this new game called minecraft where your player uses blocks or "chunks" to build, create, dig, mine, incinerate and craft to make many different materials and objects. The basic objective of the game (in survival mode) is to start from nothing and craft different materials together to make stuff like doors, pickaxes, axes, windows, wood sticks, glass and put together to basically build you a house to keep safe from monsters that try to kill you. But dont worry if you dislike starting with nothing and running from monsters in survival mode there is also a creative mode where you have every resource in the game at your disposal. You can build huge houses and roller coasters out of mine car tracks! You can also play online with friends with a server. Although this game isnt at all up to graphics standards of today with its very pixelated interface. Minecraft is fun and entertaining which is probably why it is so addicting for some people. I rank this game 4/5 for the originality and ability to keep players interested with the constant updates.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 (Movie) Review

2012-07-18T18:51:00.003-07:00

     Harry Potter has been with us for many years. It started off with books and became an amazing and phenomenal movie series that gets people hooked. On opening weekend Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 made about $168.5 million which is the biggest ever opening weekend for a Harry Potter movie. After 8 films in 10 years it all ends and is brought together in this one movie. The storyline consists of Harry, Ron and Hermione setting out on their quest to find and destroy the last three Horcruxes to once and for all kill Lord Voldemort. The search takes them through a very dangerous terrain and has many challenges along the way. Then they finally return to Hogwarts for the final showdown when good finally prevails over evil, but only if Harry deciphers the secret of the final Horcruxe.

   In this final movie there's drama, action, terror, danger, death, special effects and loads of magic as the world's three most loved fictional characters meet their final destiny. The epic ending to this film is when Harry encounters Lord Voldemort alone after their is only one Horcruxe left. Voldemort still had lots of power but he was loosing it, then Neville Longbottom finally gets his chance to shine! He finds the sword of gryffindor and slices Nagini (Voldemort's snake and last Horcruxe) in half and leaves Voldemort with very little power. Then Harry simply takes his wand and Voldemort had lost all possible power so he literally fell apart. In the Harry Potter series Neville always has the worst possible things happen to him, so I thought that this was a great ending to the film to have Neville finally have his moment to shine.

     This film had alot of action, intensity and drama making it the best film of the year (on my opinion). Which is why I am giving this film a 5 out of 5.

Little Big Planet series Review and LBP PS Vita release date!

2012-07-17T14:00:00.002-07:00

The PS3 only Little Big Planet is a fun game for all ages. In the LBP story line you are a little sack boy making your way through mythical worlds and over coming challenges. Even though your sackboy only have 3 controls (move, grab and jump) this game is still incredibly fun. in the campaign you do stuff like drive cars, swing from trees, dodge bombs, run from fire and much more.Also you can customize the outfit of your sackboy to be almost anything. From a rockstar to a giant carrot and even a sackgirl! The costume combos are endless! There is also a create mode where you can create your own levels using many different resources seen through the game. You can also use different tools to make object do many things such as spawn more of that object or make objects turn(for car wheels). The possibilities are endless! There is also an online mode where you can play campaign missions together with friends and also online people can post there own levels that they have created. As i said before you can create almost anything. People have created stuff like: sharks, snowboards, cars, planes, jetpacks and much much more in there levels. With the newer release of LBP 2 even more levels and items were brought into the game. New stuff in LBP 2 was the bounce pads which allow you to jump higher, the grappling hook which allows you to grapple on to anything made of a certain material and the helmet launch which launches a certain item. Adding just a few more of these simple items and the possibilities for levels are even greater! you can make almost everything and anything you think of. I rank this game a 5/5. Mainly a perfect score because this game is genius original and is fun for all ages. You may think this game sounds childish but once you`ve tried it no matter your age you will most likely like it. Also for you PS Vita players out there LBP for PS Vita is to be released later this year :).

Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty Review and Expansion packs release dates!

2012-07-15T13:41:00.003-07:00

Blizzard Entertainment started their award-winning series in 1998 with the first release of their thrilling strategy game; Starcraft. Starcraft is based in the 26th century in a different part of The Milky Way where 3 major races are battling it out to claim all the planets. The Terran, Protoss and Zerg races have many different units and abilities than each other. In the return of Starcraft 2 in 2010 the story line has evolved from just fending off the zerg and protoss armies in the original Starcraft. In Starcraft 2 you are a Terran rebel named Jim Raynor that is against the rising power of the Dominion that is run by Mengsk. The Dominion controls the rest of the Terran race(which are humans) except for Raynor and his band of rebels. Most of the campaign you and your rebels defeat different parts of the Dominion and free civilians. Aside from the campaign though Starcraft 2 has had a online aspect added to it along with a brand new map editor to help design more complex maps. There are now custom games designed by other Starcraft players and not by Blizzard Entertainment to give players new game modes and always new games and styles of games to play. Now there are Tug of War, Tower Defense, RPG, Survival and many more game types! Also there are new challenge modes for offline play which test your strategy and knowledge of unit balance to fight your way through certain obstacles with only limited units. I rate this game a 4.5/5 because of its genius ideas and the many advances in online game play and more game modes to keep players interested and for the intensity of battle! I highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys battle strategy and intense fighting and battles. Also as a last note new expansions for the game will be released later in 2012 for the Heart of the Swarm Expansion and TBA for the expansion after that.

COD Black Ops Review

2012-07-14T20:40:00.001-07:00

The 2010 release of the 7th Call of Duty was 1 of the most anticipated Call of Duty at all. Call of Duty Black Ops shattered the past sales records of Modern Warfare 2. Within 24 hours Black Ops sold over 5.6 million copies beating MW2`s 24 hour sales record was 2.3 million copies. Black Ops is the next in the series to Treyarch`s World at War. Black Ops i based in the Cold War era in the 1960`s. Different missions in Black Ops are based in Cuba, Russia, Kazakhstan and Vietnam. As always Call of Duty has created another amazing campaign in Call of Duty Black Ops. The campaign involves fighting your way through Cuba into Fidel Castro`s compound to kill the Castro look alike, and disabling a Russian missile silo. Another amazing part of the Black Ops game was the return of the Call of Duty`s epic game mode. Zombies. Black Ops returned with 2 new free zombie maps Kino Der toten and "Five" which is based in the Pentagon in Washington D.C. Also throughout the year that Black Ops was at its prime it released 4 new map packs which included 8 new zombie maps in total. Ascension, Call of the Dead, Shangri La, Moon and the return of the 4 World at War Zombie maps that started it all; Nacht der Untoten, Verruckt, Shi No Numa and Der Reise. Aside from the classic multiplayer mode that isn`t much different from every other First Person Shooter game. Zombies is the one mode in Call of Duty that makes it different and original. Zombies is a crazy fast-paced survival mode where zombies will come out of windows and the ground trying to kill you and you must use all your weapons and explosives to kill the zombies hoards. Every round in zombies the zombies get harder to kill and more zombies appear. Every kill gains you money and you can use this money to open doors to new parts of the maps, buy weapons off the wall, use traps and use the "Mystery Box" which gives you a random weapon. Zombies is a total original feature to Call of Duty that has kept players interested even when other games come out. Even after the release of MW3 Black Ops still has over 1,000,000 players playing at a time(give or take a few 100,000 players) and for this i applaud Treyarch on the terrific work. I give this a 4.5/5 stars rating. 5/5 for zombies, 4.5/5 for the campaign and 4/5 for multiplayer.

Smurfs (Movie) Review

2012-07-13T14:35:00.001-07:00

On opening weekend the smurfs movie made over $36 million. The Smurfs was once a T.V show that our parents watched and loved. Now they made it into a movie that is entertaining for all audiences. The storyline of the Smurfs starts off with them inside their village where everything is going great! Until Gargamel (the evil wizard) follows clumsy back to the smurfs village and terrorizes them. The smurfs are forced to leave in an emergency exit and a few smurfs head the wrong way (Papa Smurf, Clumsy, Grouchy, Gutsy, Brainy, and Smurfette). They end up in a dead end but on the other side is a portal which is only open on a blue moon. Instead of getting caught by Gargamel Papa Smurf leads the smurfs into the portal. Only to find that the portal leads to (what they think is a mysterious world) New York the most daunting city of all.

Not knowing where they are or what to do the Smurfs hitch a ride on a local human named Patrick. But Patrick's wife was soon expecting a baby and he was under alot of pressure at his marketing job, which made it the inopportune time for the smurfs to arrive. Now the Smufs must avoid getting caught by Gargamel in New York while waiting for the stars to realign and create a blue moon to get back to their village.When the smurfs and Gargamel are in New York it is quite humorous because neither of them know anything about where they are or how to act in a big city.

The smurfs movie is great for kids it offers a cute entertaining parts while still having a decent amount of action and excitement. The animation by combining the real world and the Smurfs world was astounding and looked incredibly real and clear. The actors gave it their all and had many emotions when needed, they got into their characters very well and did great at their jobs. Overall the Smurfs is fun, adventurous and heartwarming which is why i would give the Smurfs a rating of 4.5 out of 5.

Hunger Games (Movie) Review

2012-07-12T14:01:00.002-07:00

The Hunger Games had the biggest ever opening weekend for a non-sequel film. It made about $152.2 million! But money isn't everything... some viewers were not impressed by the movie because it was not as accurate as the book. The Hunger Games is set in a futuristic world where the Capitol selects a boy and girl from each of the twelve districts to fight to the death. They do this every year and it happens on live television like a sport that everyone in the country watches. Jennifer Lawrence (playing Katniss Everdeen) trained for over a year with the worlds best archer to be ready and qualified to play Katniss in the movies. I thought that this was quite amazing but and when it came to filming I thought that that Jennifer Lawrence brought out the expressions that Katniss had in the books, she was also very convincing and brave. Josh Hutcherson (playing Peeta Mellark) did a very good job getting into the role of Peeta. For most people he was exactly what they thought Peeta would be like in the movies. And Liam Hemsworth (playing Gale Hawthorne) wasn't in too many scenes but when he was I thought he was great as Gale and should continue playing Gale in the later movies to come. The makeup and wardrobe team did amazing making the characters come to life. In the scene where Katniss just found Peeta blended into the ground it looked very real and amazed most people who saw it. I like how they still incorporated the part when rue died and they show District 11 (where Rue is from). It shows the rebellion starting to form and bonding between the capitols. But some people who have not read the book found the movie quite confusing in some parts and asked questions like.. what did the three finger salute mean and got confused by the love triangle in the movie. The girl on fire scene blew people away just like in the books, everyone was exited for these scenes. But by far my favorite scene was the countdown and how intense it was. It started the excitement for the games and I couldn't take my eyes off of the screen. When Rue teams up with Katniss it was exactly how I thought it would be and I love how they kept the finish to the movie the same as the book, when the game maker is forced to eat the deadly berries and Katniss and Peeta returning to District 12. Woody Harrelson (playing Haymitch) was also great in the movie and had a few funny lines that made the movie even better! Although the movie wasn't exactly like the book it was amazing and one of my favorites! This is why I would Give the Hunger Games Movie a rating of 4 out of5. Have a great day and MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!!
