BioShock - Xbox 360

The best Gaming experience in years

Bioshock may well be headed to GOTY, and it sure deserves it...why? well pretty much everything, the story, the graphics, sound...the art direction (this area shines the most) it has all the right combination to be a memorable gaming experience. then why 4.75? well no game is perfect in my book and this has one flaw I can't bypass...it's too easy , the fact that the vita chambers spawn you when you die gives the less skilled players the opportunity to go through the entire game dying repeatedly until they can move on. Well that's it go buy the friggin game already.

FIFA Soccer 07 - Xbox 360

Fifa 07...generic soccer at best.

Generic soccer&&Fifa 07 is a game that brings nothing new to the soccer games , in Fact. It takes out some things like for example dribbling moves. I don�t know what EA was thinking when programming a soccer game in which the players only way to pass the defenders of the opposite team is to outrun them. The AI is terrible and sometimes even though one of your players is closer to the ball that the one you intended to give the ball to in the first place&the dumb AI doesn�t control the ball in fact 100% of the times the ball will bounce of the player or move away from it&it is so frustrating. The graphics are nice but nothing to brag about; The lack of major leagues is a turn off also, and there�s a lot of mistake sin the game. For example when you make the susbstitution the players come to the field dirty already as if they were playing before the susbstitution. But not all is bad on the game, the ball physics are incredible and now yui could say its a player on it�s own&for example if the ball is bouncing and you try to shoot it the direction and power depends on how the ball makes contact with the foot of the player. On another bad note when you win leagues the celebration Is terrible&I mean group hug???? Lame&overall I would say DO NOT BUY THIS GAME is not worth it&try Pro evo from konami&maybe EA will learn from their mistakes with 08.

Call of Duty 3 - Xbox 360

Call of Duty 3...another mediocre WW2 shooter.

Call of Duty 3 is probably call o f Duty 2 with a new pain coat . Lets get started first of all this time you get a WW2 shooter (I kid I kid) witch lets you play during the allied invasion of France, you get to play as a British, polish even a Canadian soldier. Crytek (the developer of this game) made a few new features in the game, such one on one fight against Nazi soldiers which youll have to kill by pressing the right combination of buttons at the right speed and moment. The missions are varied and you get to operate a tank, a jeep and even mortars. The graphics are good but nothing jaw-dropping and not too improved from last time; the only thing that amazed me was the smoke effects and some part of the game it felt like if you were in the middle of a real fight. The bad part of the game is that it felt too linear and the enemy AI isnt the smartest one. Sometimes youll end up shooting your own team mates to get them get out of your way or simply because you can pass a certain spot. And the biggest drawback I found in the game was that some times you got stuck in places and simply had to wait to get killed&and its time that programmers forget about invisible walls. The dialogue in the game is ridiculous and the lip synch IS TERRIBLE. Multiplayer is nothing out of this world. To wrap it up&I wouldnt recommend this game; besides a rental you wont enjoy it that much. Definitely wait for COD4 modern warfare

Forza Motorsport 2 - Xbox 360

Get ready for a Great racing experience.

This is the first review I write so Im going to try to be as objective as possible&first of all this review is intended to give gamers and overall feel of the game and possibly help them decide in buying it or renting it. Fist of all you have 3 major options in the main menu: arcade, career and multiplayer. In arcade you will have to beat certain tracks with the available cars for each track. Here you got like a more unrealistic version of the game (just esthetic damage and so on) and youll advance as you beat each track, no biggies here. The second one is career mode, which is the one that the game turns around for you get to choose your region buy a car and from that car moving on in races (the driver and car level up in each race). And the last one is multiplayer here theres a lot of good features theres the auction house (where you buy or sell cars you designed) forza tv (watch races and tournaments) and the regular multiplayer (you can invite players in ranked match which is pretty neat). This is a brief description of the game, but the things that makes forza 2 will definitely be the customization&the sky is the limit (and your time), basically with a little time and skill you could make any design for your car and then sell it or gift it to a friend. The tune-up for your car is very important in Forza, as you win races youll get credits to buy new parts for your cars or simply buy new ones (theres over 300+ models to go crazy with). The graphics are pretty solid but nothing jaw-dropping, the gameplay is great &each new cars feel exactly as it supposed to feel &a new car. The physics of this game are incredible but I felt that the damage could extend a little bit more. The music is great (in the menus only not during a race which is a bummer), the cars are extremely well designed and the tracks are solid also. The good: customization, gameplay is great even for gamers that are not interested in racing (as myself) the graphics are great (running at a solid 60fps), multiplayer is so fun and easy to set up, the replay value is un-believable you could play this game over and over. The bad: no music option during racing, and they could include more in game sounds. Button line: racing fan or not&this is the best racing game simulator out there and lets not forget it�s sooo fun . MUST BUY.
