Resident Evil series review

Starting today 4-3-09 I plan on reviewing all of the resident evils. It will take a good amount of time but Ifeel it would be appropriate if Istarted from the very beginning.

Metal Gear solid portable ops review

Metal gears has been around since 1987 when the first Metal gear was created and published for the MSX2 home computer since then it has appeared on the ps1, ps2, ps3, psp and xbox. Metal gear portable ops for psp its in my experience one of the best psp games you can get.

The controls are simple yet solid. you sue the analog to move your character and the D pad to look around while the two bumpers on the top are used to get your gun in firing position and aim. The X button is used to crouch and go prone, O is used to selected you weapons and equip them, the square button is used to grab, drag, , interrogate and know out people ( by tapping the square button rapidly until they pass out) finally but not least the triangle button is used stalk/ get behind walls and perform actions.

The game play is similar to all the other metal gear games which if your new to the Metal gear series involves sneaking around avoiding enemy soldiers while completing objective such has capturing enemy officers or blowing up trucks to create a diversion so you can get across a bridge. one of the new feature for this installment is the ability to capture enemy soldiers and have them join your team. each person you capture has there own traits such has being good with rifles along with being able to send items they pick up back to the truck. The traits give the game a lot of replay value by making you consider which soldiers have the traits best suited for the mission. when doing a mission if one of your squad members die the are permently dead the only exeptions to this are the characters that play a important part in the story. if they loose all of there health then they are out of the mission and need some time to heal up. You have up to four squads each being able to hold up to 4 people the advantage to having 4 squads is the ability to have one thats best suited for each type of situation

The online portion of the game is great you use the squads that you have formed in the single player portion of the game to play against other peoples squads there ares several online modes a real conflict to where if one of your squad members die then they are permently dead while in vr if a squad member dies they are just KO and unusable until the round is over. suprisingly the games I've played have been lag free making it a blast to play online against other people.

Over all this is a great game to have for the psp whether or not are a fan of the Metal Gear series

Youtube

I like youtube its a great place but I've noticed something most of the comments are just horrible. When I watch a video and read the comments I dont want to see all of those nasty comments that are on 90% of the videos. What Im trying to say is that most of the comments left on youtube are nasty and that the comment system in general needs to be disabled so that people dont have to put up with them.

Halo Wars review

I love playing rts (real time strategy) there fun and require skill or atleast some of them. well i was blown away by this game. It blew past of what i thought it would be like. This is one of the better balance rtc game out there.

The game takes place twenty years before the first halo game adding to the already rich story line. It follows the story of the uscm has they try to fight back the covenant menace. for the planet harvest.

The controls are quite easy to get use too. you use the X button to select your units that you are going to use and after selecting them it is used again to tell them where to go. the Rb button is used to select all units while LB is used to select only the units that you can see.

Racism in Resident Evil 5

There has been a lot of controversy in resident evil 5 and i am going to end this once and for all. I am not racist in any way and I am so sick of racism in this world. Resident evil 5 is not being racist and I will explain why not.

resident evil 4 takes place in a undisclosed Spanish-speaking village Europe and most of the enemies you kill are of Spanish orgin.

resident evil 5 takes place in Africa and has Africans and a few others with different ethnicity has enemies.

There has been claims that resident evil 5 is being racist because it has a white character and light skinned female African killing Africans that have been infected with a virus. now while that does seem a little racist but when resident evil 4 was released no one of Spanish descent screamed racism but when resident evil 5 takes place in Africa. people scream racism.

when I play the game I don't see the enemies has Africans instead I see them has enemies not white, not black but just has enemies. it is racist when you start to pick them out just because of there skin color.

this was written on the comment board here http://g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/693212/The-Atlantic-Weighs-In-On-The-Resident-Evil-5-Is-Racist-Issue.html this is one of the few that makes the most sense.

OK. I'm black, FAR from 35 and consider myself a gamer. Been gaming as long
as I can remember. The people that have issues with this game are the people who
have really been through some racism in their lives. I have been through my fair
share in my lifetime, being from the south, but, I know when to take it
seriously, and when to let it go. Honestly, I've never thought of racism in
Resident evil. I just know it's the zombies or Plagas, or us. I guess I look at
the whole situation differently because I've played RE from the beginning till
now. There are some things worth getting worked up about, and some things that
you NEED to let go. This is one of those things. Fight for what really matters
and leave the games to people that understand THAT IT'S JUST A GAME! All races
play games. It's not genocide or anything.

Left 4 Dead Demo review

Lets get started I'm Scott and this is my review of the left 4 dead demo. let me get this out of the way has a gamer i don't give a crap about the graphics what i care about is the game its self and with that out of the way lets begin.

Left 4 Dead the game is simple get from point A to point B alive... but its a lot easier saying it than doing at least for me since I always play on expert. you can play the same levels over and over again until your head feels like its going to explode ( trust me i know i had to take a break for a few hours) but thanks to the director ( the unknown force that controls everything in the game from where the horde comes from to where items are place) the levels always feel fresh and new.

Now for the weapons everybody starts out with a pistol that holds 15 bullets per clip and has unlimited ammo and can choose from the start from 2 different weapons a shotgun "good for close quarters and maybe mid range depending" and a Uzi "good for long ,medium and spraying and praying at close range".

you get access to better weapons in the second part of the demo. they are the m16 "pretty much the same has the Uzi but does better damage I think". A combat shotgun " its the same has the other one except it holds ten shells and is semi-automatic which is really good against a horde". The hunting rifle " is mainly good for sniping at a distance" . and before i forget there are two types of grenades a pipe bomb and a Molotov Cocktail. The pipe bomb is great for when a horde because all you have to do is throw it at where they are coming from and the beeping that is emits attracts them to it and blow them up. The Molotov Cocktail is great for blocking the path that the infected are coming from with fire.

The weapons in the game are all good and balance. you will never feel like your playing with a toy gun or Air soft gun There may not be a lot of weapons but its better to have a few guns that the player will actually use than have 20 that are useless.

The game play is simply make it to the safe room alive but thanks to the director its always fun or hard depending on who you are and how good you are because its always it different unlike some of the other game out there. when you go into a room you don't know what your going to get a few stumbling infected or a whole horde of infected.

Over all I say that this game is one of the few out there that is endlessly replay able and is really looking up to being game of the year or at least being something. I recommend this game to fans of zombie games
