Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Overall: STAR WARS FANS: DO NOT PLAY THIS GAME! You will be forced to spend your time endlessly playing and trying to master it. I will admit; i'm not THE biggest star wars nut. But none the less the game has me at a loss of words. This has to be one of the biggest titles for the entire xbox career. Its already gone gold, and i cant really blame lucas arts: theyve worked their kiestard off. The game itself is based on a character that YOU make, including picture, attributes, skills, feats and much more. The fact that you can choose between the dark and light side gives it a major boost (no, it's not automatic: theres a bar shaped like this ( and there is an arrow that points to the light side (top) or dark side (bottom).) Aside from that, there is so many weapons, so many things to do, it will make you cry. There are just so many quests its not even funny!
Gameplay: The game starts out on the ship, Endar Spire, where you basically get used to everything from a fellow soldier dude. After that, you go to taris, where you can start many quests, raid peoples apartments, and meet new people. There are alot of little shops and cool places scattered around. I'm not even done on Taris as there is so many things to do, but from screen shots ive seen from later on in the game, it just looks all too promising.
Graphics: Well, the graphics are star wars graphics: phenominal. Every little detail on every ship, every building, every character pixel is just amazing. The weapons are much different visually, along with characters and many other things. The sky/weather is pretty good, too, and there are alot of little things lying around that you cant use, but sure notice that they're there. I think this is one of the greatest visual games around.
Audio: The battle sounds are extremly well. Every laser shot is clearly heard, every clink of the metal swords is heard, and all the unique sounds of ships roaring by and different monsters and aliens shouting in their native tounge is also heard. Characters have little phrases they use in battle, although sometimes it gets annoying :D. The music is typical star wars music: kinda mystevious and dark. Nothing special on the music side, but no one really listens to the music [at least i dont ;)]
Suggestions: This game is made for live. This game just has to go live. Ive also given thought about adding multiplayer, and i think that would be awesome to have a seperate 2 player game. Also, the most important thing,
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10 NFL 2K3
Overall: There are many football games out there. Now with the major development of the NCAA and ESPN football series, it's becoming quite a tough choice to find the perfect football game. Well, let me assist you a little bit. NFL 2K3! I got really tired of the Madden series (altho they have some really cool options). It really bore me down. Well, ever since i picked up the controller for 2k3, i just couldnt stop. The game is just plain old fascinating, It depicts REAL football, not like NFL Blitz or Fever (yes, fever is a very pass-all-the-time-you-want game, with an exception to 2004). The different modes of gameplay, such as franchise, have been mastered to perfection. Not to mention Xbox Live, incredible graphics and non stop time consuming action.
Gameplay: The Gameplay is astounding. With different modes such as franchise, season, playoffs or even heading out for an early morning practice, it has it all. As far as in-game is concerned, the controls are very easy to master. I personally really enjoy maximum passing, as you can throw as you want: Hard n' down low as a bullet, or a lob over the cornerback... Throwing it behind the reciever for those curls and slants, or throwing over to make him run like mad to catch it and run. It's got it all, and its very hard to finally stop. Just make sure you know when to stop for work.
Graphics: Graphics were the first thing to catch my eye. They were absolutley astounding. Its very realistic, and replays make it really easy to see that magnificant INT you just pulled off. Better than Madden, no doubt, but sometimes, and emphisis and sometimes, the players look a bit robotic. IE, when you are running top speed into the end zone, they stop as soon as they reach it. For that reason, I give it a 4.5, but please folks: Buy this game.
Audio: Sound is given a B+. Nothing spectacular, but enough to feel like you're the one who just got plowed by Mike Alstott. The music intro at the beginning is cool, too, because they added like 5 different songs I think for the intro. To this day, im still trying to figure that out....
Suggestions: My suggestion is too make 2K5 (a while from now) a bit less robotic maybe, but im sure no one even notices it. Great job, Sega!
