Silent Hill 2 Review

So tonight I finally beat the infamous Silent Hill 2!
To start with, this game feels kind of lacking in the beginning. If it wasn't the knowledge of how great this game is then I wouldn't have finished it through to the end.
It took me a while to understand what was going on but the game fills in all the plot holes nicely. I understood everyones reason for being at Silent Hill.
The ending on the other hand felt a little unsatisfying, it felt like it just ended. I was slightly disappointed at the ending.
However, the atmosphere of Silent Hill itself was just outstanding! I will play more of this series simply in hopes of the atmosphere being as creepy and bone chilling as it was in this game.
I'm looking forward to playing Silent Hill 3 very soon.
But all in all, this game doesn't feel like it would have any replay value. But it is a must play!
So unless you really enjoy being scared then buy it. But if you just want a one time exciting experience then I suggest you rent it.

Condemned 2 review.

Okay, since Alex is too lazy to beat the game, I'll do the review.

Ok. Let's start out with the story.
The story is after the town goes to hell due to more killings in the city, the S.C.U can only call one man... Ethan Thomas, the same guy from from the first game along the way you will meet ALOT less friends so be prepared to fight... alot. Now don't worry, this game isn't as scary as the first one, it's kinda like a gore fest now.

The game now has a whole bunch of weapons, everything from bed-posts to revolvers with scopes on them. Along the way you will get a... "power." So get ready to be scared and have fun including with the very cool online mode! Seriously this game was made correctly and was very well done and deserves a rent or a buy. So rent or buy... or else.

Clock Tower 3 Review

Let me start by saying that Clock Tower 3 (CT3) is full of excitement, thrills, and hysterical moments.
CT3 follows a 14 yr old named Alyssa who is a Rooder, which by what I've seen is like a ghost hunter/ ghost whisperer. She solves the mysteries of the undead so that the troubled souls may have peace in the after life.
The game excels at the "jump out scare" tactic. Half way through the game I was jumping out of my seat from the "Hammer Bro" and eventually I was jumping from "Acid Man". These two scared me more than anyone else. Maybe I just got used to what the game was doing to me, because I wasn't as scared later on. With the exception of "Axe Man" he scared me good at least once.
But the game is very fun, its easy to follow, which unfortunately makes it short. The only thing that got on my nerve's was the techno music that I had to listen to at several points during the game. Plus an annoying organ soundtrack that seemed to just loop around the same 10 second interval.
However, if you look past the few things I had to beef about, you will enjoy it. It's a thrill to play and it gives you plenty of history tidbits to make you fear your bosses even more.

Castle Crashers review.

Castle Crashers... what can I say about this game besides... EPIC. WIN.

Castle Crashers review.

Now the story is simple your a lone (or team) of knight('s) who we're living peacefully until' your king's magical jewel and princesses are stolen and kidnapped, now you (and your team) have to get them back safely. Along the way you will notice ALOT of things from Alien Homind, I won't spoil anything but you'll notice it. The entire way through you will also be able to level up and get new weapons. When you level up you have 4 choices to add to your character, so you can make your character a strong knight who has an over the top amount of health and power or a weak knight but who has an extreamly high amount of magical power and is very quick or..... ALL FOUR. The game also features the ability to do four player co-op all the way through which sounds awesome and it is.... and it's not. The only problems I have noticed in this game is, I have never done a co-op match considering whenever I start one with my friends, it drops one or two of them out of the party. Problem two is it is extremely difficult to find a match, and even more difficult to stay IN the match, this will probably be fixed in an update though. Problem three is this game costs ALOT... how much you may ask? 1,200 Microsoft points. If you can deal with these problems though, I highly recommend this game as it is one of my new favorites on the Xbox LIVE Arcade.
