Unreal Championship
Overall: 1st game on xbox that portrays the whole "Whats the point of this game? you just run around in cricles with rediculously large guns and blow each other up?" My mom always used to ask me that until recently i came up with this re..but now theres FLAGS!!!!" If you have Live this is a must have...very cool overall appeal..(after the first 10 minutes of gameplay)
Gameplay: When you first open this up the game play is fast.....the AI is pretty good (cheap to say the least at some points)....and sometimes it will skip for a second or two. (But ive noticed that it only happens at the beginning of the map.) I got this with my xbox live..this is one of the most ADDICTIVE games thus far for the big green and black....its rather simple plenty of gore...lots of characters and great map designes..especially if you dig capture the flag...if you like the whole deathrow game..its got bomb run...its basically 1st person deathrow with guns instead of hand to hand......controls run very smoothly..in case youre paranoid youre not gonna be abled to master the controls you can configure every button individually ..so full customization.....as far as in game menus (radio coms) it runs smoothly with gameplay so that it doesnt take to much to stand there and do just a quick tap of two buttons....i LOVE the adrenaline in this game...being able to use them is a great addon to this game...
Graphics: Graphically this game isn't as good as i expected it to be. If you played the pc version first (well i did on a ge-force 4 4600 ti) dont go into this thinking its the same thing..graphically it gets a 3.5..character models are semi-grainy...however....the gun models, and other anonymous items and most level maps are pretty good...i gotta give the engine some credit for the flying balls of fire...all you ctf freaks know what i mean..
Audio: sound was rather impressive actually...sound usually doesnt stand out to me, but this game changed that..the taunts, the announcer , and well the blood curdling screams really did it for me. Voice com is pretty helpful too.
Suggestions: Due to the fact that i still play the old UT on my pc i dont think this live title will be left to collect dust anytime soon..suggestions??? Downloadable content...(im not sayin theres not any on this one..im just sayin they should get on that)
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10 BloodRayne
Overall: Its a half vampire/half human chick who is fighting the nazis who are in themselves creating supernatural beings. HUH??!!!?? Well who cares about all that it makes for a good game. Plus they used the F word so it gets some brownie points with me. I'd like to see that more often.
Gameplay: Those of you who whine about it going too fast go buy a ps2 cuz i dont want my games to be slow. Whoever wrote a review saying it's too fast obviously havent played the game for more than 15 minutes. Once you get to the second level you get slow motion. This is where the games true beauty lies. Running by a nazi in slow-mo and hacking a hand off. Its a warm feeling. The combos are cool and you can build on them. The goriness really adds to this title. There is also a blood rage which is slowing down eveyonelse but rayne and she goes crazy with her blades (highest possible dismemberment without the code). Alot of people are overlooking the groundbreaking fact that you can fire at 2 targets....HELLO!!! also the 180 in midair and dual targetting just plain makes a kid look like a show off. There are multiple ways of feeding on people one of whice you can continue to fire. The sheer amount of guns is very cool along with the coice to pick different types. Some of the bosses are tedious slashing though. However most of them require skill and have some sort of weakness or mystery about them. Once you beat this game you want more. If you can beat Beliar.
Graphics: I dont care what any one says if you have ever seen a game with that many ranging particles complete with decent looking blood, multiple enemies, and ability to hack limbs off without slowdown (unless of course you prefer as i do to do it in slow mo) this is the game that does it. Wall textures arent perfect but they fit the whole 1930's thing. The character models are smooth and never break (once again unless you chose to break them) when rayne feeds you can really see the detailin her outfit.
Audio: Slow motion screaming nazis Need i say more. As for the music, it's pretty good when it needs to be. I personally block it out or turn it down to hear them scream.
Suggestions: This game has one dissapointment.. it ends. I just recently beat this game. I was hoever happy with the hellaciously long game. It's god for an action games length ..Also complete control over what weapons to chose. Other than that Duh ...the sequal...(henced by the ending)
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
