i have a prophecy...a prophecy of a great game...

Indigo prophecy, what more can i say than WOW! This game is truly awsome. Story: The story of indigo prophecy is like a fusion between "the matrix" and something along the lines of x files. The outcome is a good one. The story keeps you coming back for more and grabs you until the 3 multiple endings. I dont want to spoil it to much but i'll give you the basics, you are a normal man named lucas kane who wakes up in a bathroom stall and radomly stabbs an innocent man to death. After regaining conciousness you realise what youve done. Without any knowledge of himself killing a completely innocent man you are lead on a wild gose chase trying to figure out what happened and how one minute your an innocent law abiding citizen and the next a cold blooded killer. The story has so many twists and turns that you'll want to keep playing to figure out exactly what happened that cold winter night in a little diner. Gameplay: The gameplay in indigo prophecy is truly unique. Its a mix of perfect timing and escape and evade. The outcome is somthing truly fantastic and absolutely unique. So for those of you who has seen the game in a store for about $20 (thats what i bought it for) than make sure you get this game. One example that i can use is that, if you have ever heard of the upcoming game
"heavy rain" than thats basiclly your closest example of indigo prophecy. So i do advise you to buy this game, if your intigued by what i said in this review than make a great investment and buy indigo prophecy.

lara croft move over, the dog has been let out for the second time!

Okay, for those of you who havent played the first game, i urge you to go out and make one of the best purchases of your life. But for those of you who played and loved the first game, theres only more to love on this highly anticipated return to the life of nathan drake. Gameplay: The basic gameplay mechanic remains the same but with drastic improvments. The core expierence is running jumping swinging and shooting, these are all done buitifly in uncharted 2. Naughty dog really worked hard on the gameplay and it shows! Graphics: the graphics in uncharted 2 are among the best ive ever seen in a video game. Everything from the way the characters move to the way the enviroments cling together is all drenched with polish. If you have seen the graphics on the first uncharted and said wow, these grahics are going to make you say HOLY &^@$#@%&%%#$@ #&@$ %$^%!!!!! yes they will. Multiplayer: The multiplayer in uncharted 2 is awsome. Think call of duty 4 meets gears of war. The ending excpierence is one that wont be easily forgotten. Well im really short on time so i have to end this review early but i'll tell you this, UNCHARTED 2 KICKS ASS!!!!! If you don't own this game you should!

Graphics: the graphics in uncharted are beautiful water ripples realisticly trees blow gracefully in the wind. They even go to such details as to let you see your shirt sundry after you take a swim in the games many puddles and lakes. The character models are also somthing to brag about as the characters move realisticly with every turn run and jump that they make. The clothes ripple and crinkle realisticly with every move that the characters make. Audio: The audio is also somthing to brag about as you wander around the vast and deeply detailed jungle you will hear birds chirping in the distance. You will hear water hitting the ground when it rains. You will hear waterfalls rushing out of or on top of a mountain. All these things are just the icing on the cake as everything else is so detailed and thought through. Gameplay: The gameplay in uncharted drakes fortune is like a mix between a very very good tomb raider game and gears of war. The shooting feels natural to the way the game plays. The cover system is also really fun and responsive. The story is also easy to keep up with. Well that about sums up uncharted drakes fortune. So anyone who feels confident about this game being good (wich it is) than get this game right now. So go out buy this game and swing shoot swim jump climb and take cover on your way to eb games or your local game store and buy this game.

Amazing...just amazing

I have to say that im pleasently surprised with escape from butcher bay. Everything from the graphics to the gameplay just shines with hard work and detication to not making a crappy game. GRAPHICS: The graphics are simply amazing for an older game. Even by todays standards (or whenever they stopped making xbox games) the graphics are maybe THE best your going to get on the original xbox. The atmosphere feels dark and gritty as does the gameplay. The enviroments are vividly polished and very VERY impressive. GAMEPLAY: The gameplay in chronicles of riddick is very interesting. After picking up my copy of escape from butcher bay i'll admit that i didn't excpect much in the gameplay department, but this is one of those times that i'm glad i was proven wrong. The gameplay varies from a first person shooter to a stealth centered game in an instint (in a good way) although the gameplay does at times feel repetetive you'll be having to much fun to notice. AUDIO: The audio in chronicles is very impressive. The voice acting is completely top notch and very proffesional. So anybody who doesn't have this masterpeace......i mean game should go out there and buy chronicles of riddick escape from butcher bay. And for those of you who don't have a xbox or xbox 360 the sequal "assault on dark Athena" is also great fun for the ps3/xbox 360 owner. But i still reccomend escape from butcher bay.

White hooded robin hood.

Assassins creed is one of my favorite games of all time! GAMEPLAY: The gameplay is a fantastic blend of swordplay. stealth and parkour (free running). Although the gameplay experience does at some instenses feels a little repetetive that shouldn't bother you to much. The gameplay revolves around those three basic mechanics (swordplay, parkour, stealth) and packs them into an assassination mission. The games free-roaming enviroment's are packed with pedestrians, merchants and guards. Basicaly you play as Altiar (excuse any miss spelling in the name). A member of an assassins buerau who is tasked with taking down bad people. But your killings will not go unrewarded. Every couple of assassinations you will be rewarded with a new chunk of the story and possibly a new weapon to end lives with. But the story is very confusing but still engaging. Basicaly about 25% of the game takes place in the future! WAAAAA! Yes you heard it right THE FUTURE! Don't go thinking that you'll be able to roam around future landscapes though. The game is about you a modern day person who's ancestors have a dark past. Your ancestor and main character of the game Altiar (pronounced: All-Tie-Air). A corrupt scientist want's to learn more about your ancestors dark past of the assassinations buerau. So he put's you into a sort of criogenic sleep in order to tap into your memory's and find out more about Altiar. GRAPHICS: The graphics in Assassins creed are nothing special although they are very good. It has depth of feild when locked onto an enemy motion blur when looking around and some other great next-gen featured. Assassins creed is defidently one game that you want to keep your eye on if your a ps3 or xbox 360 owner. So get out there and start stabbing some medival fools.
