Motor Mayhem - PS2

What are you people thinking!

ok, first thing's first.....the people who gave this game a 2 or under apparently dont know a good game if it came and kicked them in the nards. This game is not twisted metal, but its a pretty dam good spinoff of twisted metal! This game has everything you could expect for a game playable by ANYONE. It has cool characters and vehicles...like Burn Cycles, Steamrollers, they're all cool, you even have a Formula1 racer in the mix! Although i will admit that there is no storyline whatsoever. The controls are the main focus of whining for most people... But look at it this way: Imagine you have a chain gun and maxxed out machine guns and you're in a Burn Cycle, you go to whip around and fire em both off...so you whip around and do a barrel roll that leaves you a sitting duck for anyone.....then you get blown up. People.....THIS IS AN ARCADE SYTLE GAME! YOU DONT WANT GRAN TURISMO HANDLING ON AN ARCADE GAME!! Its supposed to be DRIFTMANIA with weapons, SO GET USED TO IT! Speaking of weapons......the weapons in the game include a chain gun, mini nuke, artillery cannon, missle salvo, pulse gun, flak cannon, mines, homing missles, heat seeking missles....and.....uh,.......uh......i think theres more but i forgot......or cant remember......but they're all fun weapons and, yes-- AND, each character has his/her own special combo attacks...but all of them have HOVER MODE.....i dont know the use for this but....oh well... so overall.....i learned that most people dont know good games when they see one, and that MOTOR MAYHEM is a game that never gets old and that i reccomend to buy....but good luck finding it.

Castlevania: Lament of Innocence - PS2

A Surprisingly Successful Copy of DMC

Castlevania, you've played it on SNES, and NES, now you can play it on the Playstation 2. I myself have not yet beaten it, I have killed the Golem, Medusa, and the Undead Parasite, but the action and puzzle solving is well balanced. Although the action only gets intense w/ either a boss, or a lot of enemies surrounding you. The graphics are surprisingly good also. They're not the best in the world-- it's like Bungie w/ Halo 2....more focus on storyline and gameplay than graphical wonder. The storyline is basic and easy to follow, Leon Belmont's betrothed gets captured, he goes and saves her...easy... The boss battles and overall enemies in the game are.....simple, and yet sometimes creative. The boss battles can be short and aren't very challenging so long as you have alot of potions. This is a really cheap version of the first Devil May Cry. The action and attacks are similar, and so is the boss dialouge. I liked this game from the point I read the review for it. It drew me in like the allure of a Vampires Castle. I'm not gonna get into great detail but....overall, Castelvania: Lament of Innocence is a good game for those who want good action w/out a big price...or too much action. So I give this game a 5 out of 5 because....it awed me at how surprisingly fun the game was. SO GET IT OR RENT IT!!
