Game Review: Warriors Orochi 3
Posted by Game News on Apr 23, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Ever since I was introduced to the Dynasty Warriors series, I was addicted. When I found out about Warriors Orochi, I was even more intrigued. While Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors follow (mostly) accurate historical data, Warriors Orochi combines the warriors from both of those series and creates a fictional universe. This leaves the game open to create whatever fun and exciting situations they want, as well as interesting interactions between powerful characters who would never have met in...

Game Review: Deadly 30
Posted by Game News on Apr 23, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Don’t expect anything mind-blowing with Deadly 30, as this game looks like something from the 90’s. They are going for a retro look, however, as the game is a side-scrolling shooter a la Contra. You’ll begin the game in the Black Forest, then depending on whether you venture to the left or the right, you’ll work through the Corn Fields and Mountains or the Snow World and Castle. Nothing is super detailed, so expect a white background for the Snow World and a yellow corn looking...

Game Review: Confrontation
Posted by Game News on Apr 23, 2012 | Leave a Comment
Confrontation looks exactly like what it is: a video game translation of the 1996 miniatures wargame by French company Rackham. Like its tabletop predecessor, the game’s focus is on small groups of units fighting each other in a fantasy setting. There’s a heavy emphasis on these individual units, which are modeled after the actual Confrontation miniatures. The game even has a “Paint” mode which lets you customize the colors on individual units to give your army its own...

PS3 Game: Prototype 2
Posted by Game News on Apr 23, 2012 | Leave a Comment
From the first moment that you load up Prototype 2, you will love the graphics. To start the game, the cutscenes are mostly black and white, and of course red. I absolutely adore the way the blood stands out on the otherwise black and white scenes. They really put some time into making sure the game feels more like a movie at times; but they also make sure that you never get bored waiting on a scene. Plus, you can skip the cutscenes, if you really want to.
I love the voicework as well but fair warning;...

Xbox 360 Game: Prototype 2
Posted by Game News on Apr 23, 2012 | Leave a Comment
The original Prototype put you in the role of an extraordinarily powerful mutant and stranded you in Manhattan in the middle of a viral outbreak and the resulting military occupation. It was a good game, but there were a few glaring flaws that kept it from reaching its true potential. Prototype 2 addresses enough of those flaws to establish itself as a superior sequel. It’s far from perfect, and it won’t win over anyone who didn’t like the original, but if you’re looking...
