Mass Effect
Overall: BioWare managed to start a new app that pleases gamers who love RPGs, while managing to attract gamers to the genre. With their evolutionary dialog trees, Gamers can choose their own path whether it be good, evil or somewhere in between. Will you explore the galazy to your hearts content? Or will you stick to the script? With so many options, and the choice of many side quests, M@!%#*! Effect is a game that you may have to play more than once to completely finish the game. BioWare acknowledges this and gives you the choice to restart the game with a character that you've already finished the game with.Overall Score: 9.5 / 10
WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008
Overall: Hey! Do you like wrestling? Do you like wrestling so much that you want to play a video game about it? Then WWE Smackdown! v. Raw 2008 is NOT for you! Seriously, I've been a fan pretty much since the first Smackdown game. This year's edition does not live up to the hype nor does it do any of the previous installations any justice. From the game deleting information that I just saved to the same redundant cut-scenes (this is my biggest gripe), SvR08 is pretty much the bastard child of the series that is locked up in the attic.Overall Score: 7.5 / 10
Halo 3
Overall: As any real gamer would know, this is the "final" game in the trilogy that has made the Xbox consoles the sh*t. From beginnning to end, the game is fueled with moments that make you not want to put the controller down. Forget bathroom breaks, wear a diaper! All of the elements come together to give you what you've been missing, a game that has it all! Big budget visuals and sounds plus compelling and addictive gameplay! Its time to finish the fight!Beautiful visuals will keek you company through out the whole game...whoever knew getting your @!%#*! kicked would look so good?!
Interesting fact: if you're playing music and decide to jump on the game, a window will popup and tell you to turn off your bastard music and listen to what may very well be an audio orgasm...
Gameplay: If you've played any of the other games in the series, the gameplay elements pretty much remain the same: kill, run, drive, splatter, shoot, maim, stick, and blow sh*t up! The controls have been reformatted to fit the 360 controller and in my opinion, do it well. As far as differentiating this game from its previous installments, there is less backtracking, but more baddies.
Overall Score: 9.5 / 10
Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects
Overall: Its a new spin...take familiar Marvel characters we know and love and pair them against brand new characters created just for this game. The bare skin of it is just a rehashed fighting game but with new visuals...Gameplay: The gameplay is the same of every other fighting game. The only cool thingsabout this game are the fact that the super powers are limited (cheaters cant keep hitting you with web) unless you go into rage mode. I also liked the interactive environments...
Graphics: Visuals were very different. It looked smooth and shiny at time... When you look at the Roekel character you can tell something is wrong with him because he looks like he fell in a tub full of baby oil...sharp, crisp clean...
Audio: Sound could have been a little bit better. Come on now EA, all we get is a fight intro and a punch line if the character wins?!
Overall Score: 7.0 / 10
Madden NFL 06
Overall: Wow...everything you know and love...and haabout Madden is back. This time with a kind of new look and a new player on the cover! Supestar mode and the QB vision are new...but what can you really say has changed with our old friend?Gameplay: Gameplay is basically the same. Little tweaks with the controls and fancy new modes aren't enough to keep fans around.
Graphics: Same old visuals. Nothing breathtaking...maybe they're saving everything for the next gen? Or not...All the visuals are basically 2003 again!
Audio: Sound is always on point. Especially with a surround sound syste you'll feel the crowd around you. Good job on this
Overall Score: 7.0 / 10
Burnout Revenge
Overall: Great game...better than all of the usual racing games, Burnout ensures that you will be its slave for at least 6 months...Gameplay: I will admit that I have not played any of the other burnout games. When I played the demos for this game, I knew that I had to have it. Slick gameplay with a hard hitting race style equals me likey.
Graphics: The visuals are as good as they're going to get going mn near 200 miles per hour. With everything wizzing past you, its basically a est to see if you can keep your eyes from blinking at the wrong time.
Audio: The sound is of course good. You can basically hear all of traffic around you. Since we have surround sound in the living room, you feel yourself emmersed as if you were really in traffic
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Overall: A great game overall. If you haven't played the PS2 version...its even more fresh for you. Great Story, great sound, graphics will kick your ass! Hey! And even a black main character...whats not to like?Gameplay: Unfortunately for me, I DID play the PS2 version. The game was the the story retold and a new button layout for me to catch on to. But I still enjoyed the missions, this time they were better because I actually knew where the hell my buttons were at!
Graphics: Graphics blow its PS2 brother out of the water. I was blown away by the difference between the 2 platforms. Its like comparing Buffie the Body with Oprah...ugh! Rockstar did a great job with the retooling for the XBX.
Audio: Well...my favorite part of any game is how it sounds. First off...if you have a theater system, it already rocks your jaws. Add in my favorite feature of all time, and we got a winner. Yes thats right, playing your own tracks is what makes this game a winner. What's better than doing a drive by on another gang listening to Young Jeezy or some other gangsta &%#^? Nothing...thats what!
Suggestions: PLease Please Please...throw in a little twist or something...the same story told twice is killing me! Or maybe I shouldn't play the crappy PS2 version...

NCAA Football 2005
Overall: Its an okay port into Madden. So many new things could be incorporated into the game but EA doesn't want to. Good game though.Gameplay: Gameplay is...eh...there are too many dropped passes for my liking. My game has frozen up on my a couple of times...wonder what that is? coughcoug
Graphics: Visuals are the usual EA crap. I am very disappointed that they really feel no need to improve their graphics like 2k Sports...EA=teh gay
Audio: Sound is okay at best. I do love the marching band playing the school song...but over and over and over...at least get a !&%$@#* remix..:P
Suggestions: Better graphics, better sound, ablility to change divisions, and more in depth recruiting possiblilities.

Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition
Overall: This is the best underground racing game EVER. The customization is on another level. Add the music in and the perfect racing game is in your hands.Gameplay: The gameplay is slick and smooth. The various types of cars and depth of customizing them is what draws you in. Motorcycles, choppers, SUVs, Trucks, Exotics, Tuners, and Luxury Sedans are the the spices that you can apply to your trade in this game. Excellente!
Graphics: The sexy visuals kep you in the game. Aside from a few jaggys when your in top speed, the visuals set the bar for racing games. Everything shines and glimmers.
Audio: I am a music lover and the music that is in this game keeps me happy. Except for a few lame songs the in-game music selection was good enough to keep me away from my custom tracks even though I could have used those too. Kudos to rockstar!!
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
Halo 2
Overall: GREAT GAME!! Even though it was shafted in the award shows (**** you, spike tv!!) I think this game was the best of '04, hands down. Even though the game's ending left you hanging, that's what developers wanted. No doubt there's more in store in the 3rd installment Live is teh ownage!Gameplay: Gameplay was repetitive again but much better than the first Halo. I spent basically the whole time dodging brutes and the flood and everythign else that came my way....mix it up bungie, make it more fun!
Graphics: Visuals were spectacular...you have to see a comparision between oother games and this...this game knocks your freaking socks off!!
Audio: Sound was okay. I like how they incorporated rock songs into the gameplay and my favorite monk chant returned, Marty & the music dept held it down...
Suggestions: Mix it up bungie. Give us more variation in our objectives and more levels...Cut off another game when, I'm just getting into it and you'll have a riot on your hands.
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
Def Jam: Fight For NY
Overall: Good game, solid story, and nice fighting engine. The only problem I had with the game is that it wasn't long enough to suit certain features in the game such as the respect and side plots...maybe next timeGameplay: Gameplay was great. I had no qualms what-so-ever about how this game played....Its by AKI so of course it was on point
Graphics: Visuals were good, I liked him but could have varied away from fred flinstone lookin mo-fos. I wish I could have seen more variation
Audio: In a hip-hop game the music is key. Of course it was mainly def jam music so it was iight. if they put in Outkast, why couldn't they get other non def jam artists on the soundtrack...
Suggestions: More characters....bigger, longer plot, more music...CUSTOM SOUNDTRACKS!!
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
Azurik: Rise of Perathia
Overall: its a great game..or so I think it mixes a puzzle game an an rpg just right...good job guys. can't wait for the next oneGameplay: the gameplay is straight but this is not a game to keep you up addicted. you would need to play this in the afternoon, otherwise its snooze time
Graphics: okay visuals...i like the little cutscenes because they attempt to capture the xbox's technology to the fullest
Audio: i hated the sound in this game..i think this is a contributing factor to being bored with this game...
Suggestions: throw in some mature themes or something more exciting....
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
Unreal Championship
Overall: good game. Set in the future, sets of teams face off against each other in deathmatches...good conceptGameplay: gameplay gets a little repetitive time after time but you know you have to do something to spice it up a lil bit...live's the best part
Graphics: the visuals are good.. everything looks clean and everything. i just said everything twice in once sentence....good for me!
Audio: sound's okay..they do good with that they can but you know it really could use a custom soundtrack option...thats what i think...
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
Tony Hawk's Underground
Overall: Nice work on this one....i like how they twisted their minds and came out with a story mode with an actual storyGameplay: gameplay is the usual you come to expect from THPS and everything i liked the manuals and everything...especially create a trick
Graphics: visuals were really good for an extreme sports sim game... everything flowed pretty smoothly, hardly any jagged areas and no black areas for the most part
Audio: sound was great! i liked hearing some new flavor from their soundtracks. they really know how to pick them i hardly listened to my own music when i played this game
Suggestions: make the story weave a lil bit more...its cool though we need another THUG...
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3
Overall: OH MY GOD!! before this i wasn't really into tactical games that much but how i've learned! rainbow six 3 was just an amazing experience..Gameplay: i liked the gameplay. it was something new to me and it was very exciting to plan everything out. i just wish I had my headset to vocalize the commands though
Graphics: the visuals were excellent...of course.what else do you expect from a tom clancy game? the cutscenes were fantastic and the game visuals weren't too far from the scenes...
Audio: sound was good even though you get tired of the suspensful music after a little bit but everytime you hear something you start thinking somethings gonna happen. all the sound effects were authentic too...
Suggestions: keep on keeping on
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
Overall: At first i was hesitant to rent this game because its a SW game and that usually means its nerdly orgasmic...when i put this game in my whole world changed. This game is the only reason that i like SW now. I will buy this game as soon as i get a job....Gameplay: This game is really smooth when you play mostly everything is nice and organized the only thing i couldnt deal with was all of the long cutscenes
Graphics: all i have to say is that the visuals on this game were fantastic....a friend of mine got a little too close to Batista when she was running around in her drawers, i had to guy him.
Audio: the sounds were so !&%$@#* great man..the only thing i didnt like was the repetitiveness of some of the music. i wish we could have played custom soundtracks. it would have been too damn funny with me rolling around tattooine listenin to 50 Cent.
Suggestions: just add an option for online play somehow and custom tracks and you'll be straight
Overall Score: 10.0 / 10
Amped: Freestyle Snowboarding
Overall: its a great game.....nice tricks good idea it just lacked a little for me i mean the whole "trying to get discovered" thing was nice i was just looking for moreGameplay: nice gameplay for the first couple of hours but after that i got a little bored and fell asleep on it
Graphics: nice graphics but mostly everything was white so u cant really hail it was being the best looking thing ever...
Audio: i loved the music in the game and since this was one of the first games i played i loved being able to listen to my custom sound tracks
Overall Score: 7.0 / 10
Capcom vs. SNK 2: EO
Overall: i love this game! i mean i wasnt totally in love with 2d fighters but i picked it up for the live advantage i got totally hooked. my friend and i battle each other constantly and i really enjoy the live addition without it i might not have got itGameplay: overall....the unlocking of characters is what gets me to play...i played so much just to get shin akuma and ultimate rugal that i had blisters on my thumbs.
Graphics: not stunning but kinda of repetitive but u get used to it after a while and appreciate that theres not a cut scene for everything
Audio: sound is average not over the wall and the songs do start to urk u after a while but good nonetheless
Suggestions: more characters and expand on the color edit mode thats where the real fun is
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
NFL Fever 2003
Overall: a really fun and creative football game. not just your usual nfl teams....the custom teaming and dynasty modes add to the gaming experienceGameplay: even though it is a football game, its one that you wont get tired of easily the tackles and different animations keep you playing
Graphics: really great visuals even though i could deal with less cutscenes, i enjoyed watching the facial expressions of my players after a touchdown
Audio: it really surprised me when i started the game up and the clipse bounced at me....i wasnt expecting that but i really enjoy their music
Suggestions: more capabilities with online pla...how about a sudden death showdown or kickoff competition
Overall Score: 8.0 / 10
BMX XXX
Overall: this is one of the sorriest games i've ever played....of course i played for the nudity but the bmx part left me lacking happinessGameplay: i meant bmx games are usually good and i like them a lot but the missions on this game are really repetitive but funny
Graphics: it looked good and i especially loved the unlockable visuals :))))
it was a good looking game that caught my eye
Audio: the sound was good the music really went with the bmx culture and plus the fact that it made the music i have on my soundtracs louder impressed me
Suggestions: dont mix the bmx with nudity just make a strip club sim
Overall Score: 4.0 / 10
Halo: Combat Evolved
Overall: This game changed my whole outlook on gaming. i used to shun fpss but after i played ahlo i was hooked...the game is just so beautifully doneGameplay: the plot and everything complements the controls and everything likea tight dress complements a woman's curves i couldnt see it any other way
Graphics: my jaw actually dropped a couple of times during come of the scenes...its not anything that u can cry about but altogether its nice
Audio: sound is amazing...it helps to have my surround soundset up so i know if someone's tryin to sneak up and the game developers put that in there
Suggestions: dont stop the good work
