Upcoming Reviews

‘Sup peoples?

A quick update; the reviews that I am currently writing and editing is as follows:

• Saints Row: The Third

Saints Row: The Third is the 3rd game in the series (thought I point out the obvious there) of an over-the-top 3rd person sandbox action game. 

You are the head of the street gang known as The Third Street Saints who are dragged into yet another gang war, this time due to the 3 unified gangs of Steelport (the new location of the game) who call themselves the Syndicate.

  

Guess all that horse riding benefited her getaway skills on the horse looking VTOL bike.

• Deus Ex Human Revolution

... Human Revolution (HR) is the 3rd game to be created within the [Dues Ex] series. HR is also the prequel to one of the bestselling PC games of all time selling over an astonishing 1 million copies and boasting over 40 awards.

HR is a 1st person action-RPG hybrid that is set in a cyberpunk era. You are Adam Jensen, an ex-cop who is thrown into a world full of conspiracies and a place where corporate espionage flourishes.

• The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

The Elder Scrolls has always been a huge hit; the series is known for its large world and distinctive RPG style. ... Skyrim, like its predecessors, has a huge (and I mean huge) interactive world, deep story and an amazing array of inventory.
The main distinctions that separates ...Skyrim from its forefathers is the new game engine (which makes the game look beautiful), new graphical user interface and... dragons!  

"Human, om nom nom!"

•  Battlefield 3

Battlefield 3 is the 11th game to date within the Battlefield series (not including expansion packs) and still runs strong. Battlefield remains so successful to this day due to the fact the designers listen to their fans, and keep adding new modes of play.
Battlefield 3 is a 1st person shooter based on modern warfare (not the game). It is mainly played due to its online capability (and rightly so!)

"I learned this off Gears of War" .

The full reviews will be up as soon as possible, but for now I present you a trailer for Syndicate. Syndicate was one of my favourite games on the Sega Mega Drive (better on the Amiga). It was a real-time strategy, now it is a fantastic looking 1st person shooter.

I watched this...
