You can also pick an option on how to play your game. Story, Action, or RPG. I think that is pretty neat.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater HD

Best.Game.Ever

If you haven't played it, do yourself a favour and pick up the HD Collection, it's worth the $40/€40 alone.

Assassin's creed: Revelations

I honestly don't know why people keep claiming this to be the worst in the franchise (not counting the first one)

The online has some fucking awesome modes like;

Manhunt
Corruption
Assassinate

The campaign, while I'm still early into it, is definitely worse than ACII, but only by a small margin.

In short, AC: Revelations is my fav. Assassin's Creed game, thus far.

MW3 Multiplayer 5/10

Fucking broken and laggy ass piece of shit. It doesn't deserve to be played as much as it does. It's fun when it works, like half of the time.

Alan Wake's American Nightmare [Trial] = (8.5)

Great game, but it's not nearly as awesome as the original title.

Also, it doesn't have that same sense of atmosphere, which is kinda dissapointing.

Though, I'll buy the full arcade game in a week, and then see how it plays out.

SSX (Demo) - 9.5/10

It is amazing. Go get it now.

Twisted Metal

Not going to make an overall score for this because as much of a raging TM fanboy that I am, even I can see many faults with this game so here are separated categories:

Presentation - 6/10 Here is the biggest flaw of the game. Menus are ugly, a little slow, gotta go through many hoops just to invite friends into an online game and basically just a bunch of questionable GUI designs. The lack of an installation was nice though. Critics can still go fuck themselves though, GT5's interface was always awesome.

Graphics - 8.5/10 Getting into a game however makes me forget about those faults. Maps are enormous, nearly everything is destructible and interactive, explosions and chaos everywhere, attention to detail is still there and the frame rate is buttery smooth. There is splitscreen support which is kind of a hit or miss. Getting into a big game can really make the frame rate take a nose dive. Overall though, a very nice looking game with some great lighting, amazing use of motion blur and incredibly well designed maps.

Story - 8/10 Probably some of the cheesiest you'll see in a game but I enjoyed them. They are demented as fuck and the style of the cutscenes are very cool. However, I expected a deeper background of the universe and the characters since there are only 3 playable characters this time around. So when it comes to storytelling, Twisted Metal Black wins that hands down.

Sound - 9/10 Oh man I love the sound effects in this game. Cars sound real, explosions are loud, the horrible screams from innocent pedestrians I run over bring a smile to my face and the soundtrack.. oh man... that soundtrack... Amazing variety. Great selection of bands and old school hip hop (Straight outta Compton!). I cannot replicate the same feeling I get by blowing up other cars while listening to Rob Zombie in any other game.

Gameplay - 10/10 Obviously where this game really shines. This is possibly the funnest game I have ever played. This is a video game in its purest form. It's fast paced, realism is thrown out the window, there is no hint of it taking itself seriously, controls are tight and responsive and it is still a very deep experience. Each car has it's own strengths, weaknesses and special abilities. Each map has many secrets which recommend good strategies while playing. Boss fights are huge in scale and absolutely epic. Online play, when working, is the greatest thing.

So overall, I feel that this game delivered big time. It is an amazing return for one of the greatest Playstation franchises. There are many technical issues plaguing the online experience and the interface could really use an overhaul but the actual game itself is an absolute masterpiece. The inclusion of a free downloadable copy of Twisted Metal Black really seals the deal. You get a copy with the best gameplay and another copy with the best story. This is truly an amazing package and something that every fan needs. Newcomers? Well that's up to you. TRF can go fuck himself though.

Snake [Facebook] 11

Snake is pretty kewl gaiz, the character development is 2nd to none.
You start off as one blue block and as you get smarter and stronger you get moar blue blocks.
The story is well thought out, as you have to eat your rivals (the red fucking blocks) each time you defeat one, you grow stronger, I think this is meant to convey that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, a great life lesson, very deep moral of the story, I think.
It also teaches you to eat your enemies no matter how hard it is to get those fuckers, another thing it teaches you is to never get in your own way, or you might crash and lose all your blocks (blocks = personal growth, never get to full of yourself, is the moral)

Overall I think it's an amazing game, one of my personal favorites.

I'll review Pacman next week.

(P.S. FUCK THOSE FUCKING RED BLOCKS THAT ARE RIGHT IN THE CORNER OF THE SCREEN, I HATE YOU FUCKERS)

Daymon, you're only giving it a 9.5? WTF?

Only an 11?

Fable II = 8.5

Fucking awesome....NUFF Said
