Fallout 3 Review

Filed under: Uncategorized — coolvideogame @ 12:50 am

This game is definitely something different. The power of choice. You scour the post-apocolyptic wastelands as a lone nineteen year old. You grow up in a Vault, and when you turn 19, your dad has ran out of the Vault due to the Overseer. But why? As you ask yourself that, you go out of the Vault and are alone in the wastelands, while you search for Dad. In the game there are both main quests, which advance the story, and the side quests, which don’t advance the story, but can lead to other great things. The most interesting thing about Fallout 3 is the choices. There are tons of different options to explore, and many different outcomes, making this game endless, and the perfect game for multiple playthroughs to see what you get. You have something called Karma. If you do bad things such as steal things, and kill innocent people, you will have low Karma. If you help people out, and save little children, you will have good Karma. All of these factors make this game incredibly realistic. You will get over 50 hours of play into this masterpiece. Being an RPG, this obviously has to have some RPG elements. Although you use guns and have a first person view as you would have in first person shooters, there is something called VATS(Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System) Which lets you slow down time, and aim for certain body parts. However, you can’t do it too many times as it is balanced with action points. You will face enemies such as Mole Rats, RadScorpions, and different variations of Super-Mutants. The only thing bad about this game are the glitches. There are some that are definetly noticable, but it rarely cuts into the overall experience. The choice and the amount of things you can do in this game makes it one of the best and unique experiences you’ll ever encounter. Buy it now!

Score-10/10

Preview:Dragonball Z: Burst Limit

Filed under: Uncategorized — coolvideogame @ 8:46 pm

Yes, even when the Xbox 360 and PS3 were around, they came out with a new Dragonball Z game called Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 and they put it on the PS2 and Wii. But now, the Dragonball Z games have been brought to the Next-Gen systems as it makes it’s day view on the PS3 and Xbox 360. It’s called Dragonball Z Burst Limit The graphics in this game look beautiful. There is great detail in the characters. The envirements look pretty good but aren’t as detailed because the envirement isn’t playable but still look good. The gameplay should be interesting because there is all new gameplay mechanics including something known as the Aura Spark. This game is bursting in on June 10, not too far from now. Looks like an awesome game!

Burnout Paradise

Filed under: Uncategorized — coolvideogame @ 7:35 pm

The ultimate car-racing franchise kicks off 2008 with their best Burnout game yet. The players loved it when they introduced takedowns in Burnout: Takedown. Now, you stroll, or should I say, destroy, a new place called Paradise City. You drive around this city and destroy things, as well as tackle missions that involve races and road rages. There is also something called Showtime which is a series of continuous crashes rolling on your sides throughout Paradise City. Unfortunately, there isn’t any Multiplayer but there is Online Play. Added with spectacular, next-gen visuals, this game is the best racing game up-to date!

Rock Band

Guitar Hero 4. That’s what I thought when I saw this game. It’s not a copy of Guitar Hero! It has the same genre but it’s not the same! It introduces the drums, the microphone, and the guitar as well. You play all the fun instruments with at once with your friends it’s amazingly fun. You’re friends are finally playing as your dream band! This game was really for a lot of people to play, but you can have loads of fun playing solo. It probably doesn’t seem so fun, just pressing a bunch of buttons. But it really gives the players a great co-op experience and is one of the most fun games we’ve had in years. The drums have four pads and a kick pedal. The microphone works pretty well, what a surprise, it’s not cheesy! The Special Edition comes with the game, the drums, the microphone, and the guitar. One problem. One-hundred seventy bucks for the Special Edition. We don’t want to just buy the game and play with the stinky PS3 or Xbox 360 controller, do we?. Is it worth it? Yup.

Spiderman:Friend or Foe for the Wii

Filed under: Uncategorized, Video Game Review — coolvideogame @ 4:22 pm

Finally, something new! You don’t do much webslinging in this game, but you do a lot of fighting. You use the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk for ultimate combat. In this game, they really got creative with the webbing. You can grab them with a web and spin them around and then bash them on the ground. You can also grab them with a web and start tripping your other enemies with the enemy you have caught in the web. Cool, huh?

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games

Filed under: Uncategorized, Video Game Review — coolvideogame @ 4:00 pm

Don’t listen to the people who say this game was a dissappointment(I hope I spelled that right) Mario characters and Sonic characters join together in a major face-off. The minigames are great great fun. Almost half of the games require you to alternate the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk back and forth which is a great exercise and very enjoyable. You can jump into Single Match and play any event that you have unlocked so far, but in the beginning of the game, you can’t play many events. You can also go into Circuit mode which is basically a row of events. If you come in the top 3, you will possibly unlock a new circuit or a new olympic event for Single Match. This game is also so addicting!

Guitar Hero 3

Filed under: Uncategorized, Video Game Review — coolvideogame @ 5:16 pm

A new edition to Guitar Hero? This game is Guitar Hero with a few slight changes. The biggest change is the increase of extreme difficulty. In other words, this game is really REALLY hard. You find yourself moving your fingers at lightspeed, due to the velocity of the songs. Another change is that there is a new mode called Battle Mode.  You both play notes as if it were co-op mode, but you’re against each other. Instead of Star Power, you have different power-ups, such as increasing their difficulty or breaking one of there strings. You have to use these power-ups to screw your opponent up. Not as fun as it might seem. But this game is still fun, as it gives the previous Guitar Hero players a challenge, and new players a good game to play.

Thrillville Off The Rails

Filed under: Uncategorized, Video Game Review — coolvideogame @ 2:47 am

From the award-winning game staff off Thrillville, I present to you, Thrillville Off The Rails. This Game literally takes you off the rails. From getting thrown in a giant ball to crashing down a crane in the roller car. One super-cool thing is that you can make half of a roller coaster, and people will still ride on it! The roller car will explode and…..wait…did I say explosions? I meant to say……..yes, explosions! Woohoo! Explosions! It also has new and cool minigames and coasters. This game rocks!
