games update may 29, 2012

lets see...

RESIDENT EVIL REVELATIONS - A fully-fledged Resident Evil game on the 3DS, and being a fan of the series since RE4 I was not disappointed. The storyline was interesting and I liked how it was presented like a TV series ALA 24. The gameplay felt like a mix between creepy horror and the fast-paced hardcore action. The graphics were pretty fantastic and sits between RE4 and RE5 in terms of graphical quality, which was impressive. I really enjoyed using the gryoscopic functionality to aim and shoot. Overall, a high quality game that I expect more of on 3DS. 8/10

MIGHTY SWITCH FORCE - I got this off the eShop and I have really really enjoyed it. It feels like Metroid but with puzzle gaming added plus speed run addiction. The soundtrack is one of the best in games, I think. Excellent, ezxcellet game. 8/10

ALAN WAKE - I felt like playing a good single player title for Xbox 360 and so this was on sale. I enjoy the presentation like a TV series (kinda like RE revelations), and the story was very interesting overall. The gunplay is unique and different from most third person shooters, and the lighting effects are pretty amazing (though I was more impressed by the lighting in Silent Hill Shattered Memories). I haven't beaten it yet but a solid game and fun overall. 7/10

SKYRIM - Not initially interested due to my dislike and boredom from Oblivion, I gave this one a shot and have enjoyed quite a lot. Really, the gameplay in the Elder Scrolls series is not complicates - search dungeons, kill baddies, collect loot. Lots of loot. What makes Skyrim enjoyable is the sense of adventure it gives, putting you in a very believable and complex universe that is both epic and detailed. This is a very impressive overworld in terms of topography and lushness, though I found the barren apocaplyptic wastelands of Fallout 3 to be more compelling. The RPG elements are well done, with NPC conversations getting a change in terms of execution (no more zoom ins on faces and that stuff). The addition of dragons is pretty amazing as well, and every bout with a dragon is extremely challenging yet highly rewarding as well. The story is great and manages to keep me entwined in its rich narrative and history. Skyrim is a game meant to be experienced and marveled at, but not at the cost of gameplay and fun. 9/10

KID ICARUS: UPRISING - So I was very hesistant on getting this game because of the mixed impressions in terms of control I've read. I took a chance, and I'm glad I did, this is game is outstanding so far. The controls, are different, but they work very well and make this action shooter feel more twitch and reflex based than a lot of games. My hands are not pushing any buttons (except for firing), its simply making gestures with the stylus and moving with the circle pad. It takes a minute to get used to but it works. I enjoy the game's creativitiy in terms of controls and wish more games would just take risks. It almost puts this game in its own genre for how it destroys notions of traditional controls. On top of that, I'm enjoying the game's funny, Saturday morning cartoon like storyline, and the game's absolutely massive wealthy of unlockable content. Thus far, I don't have that many problems with this game, and if rated today I'd give it 9.5/10
