Dead Man's Hand - Xbox

Never met a horse I didn't like

I picked this game up for $10 and I got more than my moneys worth. The graphics are good and it plays pretty well. Most of the levels are pretty cool as you're hunting the bad guys down. Weapon selection is limited but how many do you need in the old west? I didn't care for the horse riding levels and it has some bad hit detection. I shot way above a guy and it said I had a head shot. There's just something about wild west video games that I like. I can't wait for "Gun" to come out later this year. This game is not as good as Red Dead but I think it's worth addding to your collection.

Get er done

Now this is how it's done! This game blows Metal Gear Solid 3 out of the water. I love my PS2 but this game rocks. Controls are simple and easy to use. Graphics are oh so sweet. My only issues with the game are the following, saving is a b*tch and the manual is very vague on the subject. I would like a save anywhere feature. The other problem is some restrictive game play. You usually have only one path to take and you can't always take out the bad guys. If you're a super spy you should be able to "get er done" the way you want. Those are very small gripes though and don't hurt the game. Action and stealth fans can't go wrong with this one.

Love it or leave it

I'm so tired of this series. After you sit through the cut scenes and all the radio chatter there's not much game play left. Here's how I started, watch the cut scene, finally in the game, oops radio call, proceed to fall off cliff, oops radio call, get sack out of tree, fall out of tree, oops radio call, talk about Godzilla, go through swamp, drown in swamp, he dies. Bad camera angles, over complicated controls, over produced and over hyped. I will say that the graphics are cool. You can love it but I'm going to leave it.

XIII - PS2

Just shoot me

The only problem I have with this game is the lack of check points. You can be two steps from the end of the level and make one mistake and you have to start all over again. Because of no check points the stealth areas can be difficult. I like that they tried something different from other FPS with unique graphics and game play. I gave it a slightly higher score for it's originality. At it's current price there's no reason not to pick this up.

Who ya gonna call?

I've been waiting a long time for the price to drop on this one. I finally picked it up for $20. The question is who ya gonna call because they ripped off Ghost Busters with this one. The thing is they did an excellent job with it. The game looks sweet with nice cut scenes and a sense of humor. You play a cop looking for his partner and you need to fight and trap ghosts then return them to the holding chamber. Controls and camera are just right so if you get a chance pick this up and bust some ghosts.
