Posted: Wed Aug 23, 2006 7:02 pm
ive decided to reveiw multiple games this week so here it goes
Madden 07
platform:xbox 360
genre:sports
The good:fun classic madden gamplay that is still the same as previous versions but more revised and toned. Fun new hall of fame mode.
Better graphics, sounds, player models ETC....just right difficulty, not to hard, not to easy
The bad:Stripped modes are a real big problem and the absences of al michaels and Madden are a real bummer, I mean comon its madden and yet theres no madden.lacking AI for the defensive backs and receivers.Aukward animations and lets say you get hit in the front you may fall to the side that kindu thing.
Overall its an enjoyable game that isnt very different than the past madddens and probably the future maddens as well.
7.0/10
Battle for middle earth 2
platform:xbox 360
genre:real time stategy
The good:tons of playable factions and lots of cool heroes and villians.Awsome !!!! online play and the controls are precise even on a console. Good graphics and wonderfull environments that make you feel like you are in middle earth.Fun skirmish mode and lots of different units to command for each faction.
The bad:lacking campaign mode and game glitches a little bit after about 1 hour of playing.Unrealistic sizing for some units, like a cave troll is about the size as a rohan horserider.
Overall this game is great for any RTS fan and is lots of fun to play on the 360. If you liked the first one then you'll love this one!!!
9/10
Ninety-nine nights
platform:xbox 360
genre:hack and slash/fighting
The Good:interesting storyline and cool combos to pull off during the game. The gameplay is fun at first but gets repetitive after a short period of time.
The Bad:No online play is a heartbreaker because that couldve saved this game.The voiceacting totally sucks!!!!!soem of the most horrible voice acting in any game. Game is very repititive and doesnt give you much to do.Though the combos may look cool the "really good combos" do just as much as the basic ones
Overall NNN is a mediocre hack and slash that doesnt put much new material into the players hands.
5.5/10
