Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind GOTY Edition
Overall: This game is awesome. Think original Morrowind times 10. Beware, though. It will consume your life. I think it is my favorite XBOX game to date.
Gameplay: I like the gameplay on the expansions a lot better than on the original version. Little side-quests just pop up from nowhere when you're talking to someone. There are new weapons, items, and FINALLY, some good medium armor.
Graphics: Morrowind at its best. Remember all those crappy dead trees in Balmora? Just head over to Soltheim or Mournhold and take a look at green plants. Thats right, greenery.
Audio: Same old music and sounds. Not that its bad, but i was looking forward to a little more. Still very good, though.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Overall: Knights of the Old Republic is the best RPG I've played yet. It has a great story line, multiple ways to beat the game, and well over 40 hours of gameplay.
Gameplay: The gameplay is perfect, except for not allowing the player to pan up and down with the camera angle. Aside from that, the controls are straightforward, and I never had any trouble getting my character to do what I needed him to do. Like I said before, the game has at least 40 hours of gameplay. It took me about 48 hours to get through the game, and I didn't do everything there was to do in the game (I didn't do much with Pazaak, a card game, or swoop bike racing). After you're finished, then you can play the game again on the other side of the Force and with a different class.
Graphics: While the fighting is turn based, and you have to pay attention to your queue, it doesn't look turn based. Of course, Bioware did a good job with the animations, and once you have three Jedi characters running around with two lightsabers or with lightsaber bows, there are rings of color all over the place. I was impressed visually, be it in the fighting animations or the variety of worlds, spaceships, weapons, and characters.
Audio: The game uses all of John Williams' original score from the movies, making the music pretty hard to argue with. The voice overs are good, the sound effects are good. There's nothing to complain about.
Suggestions: Naturally, I want more. The game was perfect, but now I need a sequel.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb
Overall: Oh boy. What can I say? This is a great game. The gameplay is awesome, so are the graphics and music. If you've rented it, buy it. If you've never played it, rent it. Second best Indy game ever, second only to Fate of Atlantis. YOU GUYS, PUT SOME REVIEWS ON THIS GAME SO WE CAN PUT IT ON THE CHARTS!
Gameplay: The controls are perfect. Also, theres some much stuff available to do. You've got your basic weapons: whip, fists, revolver, machine gun, and a lot more. Then there are improvised weapons: liquor bottles, chairs, metal poles, table legs, and my personal favorite, the shovel. There are a lot of combos, so you don't use the same old moves all the time. Also, you can restore your health at any time by drinking out of your canteen. Nothing more a person could ask for
Graphics: Awesome. Lucasarts has stepped along way since Obi-Wan. Realistic elements are perfect.
Audio: Classic Indiana Jones music. What more could you ask for? Also other sound effects are great. Enimies don't always say the same thing. And I will never grow tired of the crack of the whip.
Suggestions: Great job. Keep 'em coming.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 Rallisport Challenge
Overall: This game is great. That's really all that I can say. It's by far the best racing game ever. Even though Project Gotham is good, this is the best.
Gameplay: Couldn't be better. It's got the same basic controls as Project Gotham. You have to get used to turning though. You have to anticipate turns more than any other game (especially on ice). The navigator tells you up-coming turns to make it easier. But, the turning makes it more fun, and a lot better.
Graphics: Visual couldn't be better. You got real grass, real rocks and real water. Also, rocks and dirt kick up behind the car to add to the effect. Heck, the trees even sway when you crash. Also, the car damage is realistic, too.
Audio: Techno. Yeah, I know techno does suck. But, you can always turn the music off. Other than the music, all of the sound effects are great. Peeling out, crashing, skidding. The exhaust pipe even pops when you shift. Also the navigator helps a lot. All this nifty stuff makes up for the crappy techno.
Suggestions: Make a sequel. Also, maybe you could add the concept of buying the cars instead of earning them. Other than that, keep up the good work.
