Quoted from Dreamscale
I wasn't crazy about Dead Space.  Thought it looked great but the sample I downloaded on PS3 wasn't very cool, IMO.  I love the RE games, but this one didn't quite do it.


Please reconsider. I too downloaded the demo and wasn't too impressed. I only got the game cause it was on sale and I had heard good things. The game is so much better than the demo made it out to be. Terrible demo, AMAZING game.

Not really a review. I just wanted to pop in and say how fucking awesome Killzone 2 is. What an underrated masterpiece. This game makes Modern Warfare 2 look like a bad joke. You guys wanna play a real shooter, play Killzone 2.

Underrated?  It sold close to 3 million copies and scored like 9's and 10's across the board.  In this day and age, selling on a Sony console to boot, selling 700,000 is a success for those guys.  

But with that said, yes... Killzone 2 really set the bar.  I'd say buy a Ps3, not for the games, but for all it can do.  It really is a media hub.  I own 2 of them, a launch system in which I put a 500gb hdd in and store a wealth of my movies and what not on... And a new slim, on which I do "light" gaming on.  

I have a stack of games I haven't even opened up yet.  I have God of War 3 and like 5 other games still in the wrapper.  I just don't have it in me.  If I'm going to do something these days that doesn't have to do with my little girl, it's going to be my music - gym - my concept cartoon album and then writing.   Then again,  I do find myself gaming more than usual while staying with my band mates these last few days.  We have some off time late at night around 2 to 4 and I'll jump on Burnout or play Gravity Crash for a bit.  Though it'll change when I get back home.  My wife keeps me on my toes.

PS3 ROCKS!!!!  It does everything you'd want such a thing to do.  When my computer crashed, it gave me E-Amil through Web Mail and of curse, the internet.

I only have 2 games...Oblivion, which I mastered and spent some 500+ hours on, and now I'm playing Fallout 3.  Both Bethesda, and both brilliant.  So huge, so open, so fucking COOL!!!

Okay maybe underrated was a bad word choice. But I always here people talking about MW 2 and never hear anyone mention Killzone 2. In my honest opinion Killzone 2 is the FAR better game.

Jeff, I love Oblivion. Currently going through the fighters guild. I got bored with Fallout 3 about 4-5 hours in. Not a bad game, just not for me. Stay away from Bethesda's newest game "Rogue Warrior". I haven't played it, but I've heard it's laughably bad.

Killzone 2 was/is a victim of hype. I bought it and never played it for half a year and when I did finally play it I loved it but put it away and haven't played it since.

Playstation 3 exclusives are kind of forgotten by gaming fans especially when not titled God of Bore and are exactly the same shit you come to expect.

I always heard about this half second gun delay in Killzone and never experienced it. Single player FPS experiences have gone down hill with games like COD boasting online and not being as fun as they were a few years ago because nothing new happens.

MAG is the answer to that I think wherein you can actually play as a medic (Battlefield has that but is average) and once they get more maps it will take off possibly or die like Socom because PS3 exclusives with that chat system just aren't as fun.

If only they would copy xbox and allow party chat (Give it some shiny new name but have it be the same thing)

MAG was HORRIBLE. Impressive player count, but the gameplay was so generic. Bleh. Killzone 2 surpassed the hype for me. After the mediocre original Killzone I wasn't expecting much from the sequel, which is why I waited so long to pick it up. I wish I would have got it opening day. It's amazing.

Yeah, Zack, I've seen this many times.  Sure wish I could get the damn thing now. It looks amazing and I've read so many good things about the game. They've revamped a number of things...the characters no longer just stand and stare at you when they talk..they carry on whatever they're doing and it's actually harder to have conversations with some characters because they're busy doing stuff.  Also, you can equip weapons in either hand or both, and you need to have a free hand for magic.

And...there are dragons which play a major role in the game.

Speaking of dragons...I bought Dragon Age Ultimate Edition a couple months back.  I've tried to get into it and just can't.  Way too much to worry about and set up all the time.  Graphics are weak. Combat is terribly confusing, and the controls are so difficult to use.

So many people say it's one of the best games ever, but definitely not for me.  I'm giving up and going to be selling it, as it's barely even used.

I actually went back to Oblivion as a different character to get me through the wait till Skyrim.

GEARS OF WAR REVIEW

When Gears of War was first revealed for the Xbox 360 it blew people away. Never before had graphics been this detailed. Well I'm here to say that while the graphics are indeed fantastic(they still hold up very well), the game play is what makes Gears such a great game.

Concept- Many critics have cited the story of Gears as a weak point, but I disagree. It is a very simple tale about an alien(or demon? horde coming up from underground and engaging humanity in a brutal war. There's not much to it, but I feel as though the characters are strong enough to push it along.

Graphics- Amazing. Even today they can compete with the best of the best. Everything from the character models to the textures to the animations is top notch.

Sound- The sound design and voice acting is great. However, the script itself is a bit hammy. Also, i kinda wish there was a more memorable score.

Game Play- Excellent! The cover system was revolutionary and has since been copied by a vast amount of third (and first) person shooters. Co-op really does make the game twice as good.

Overall- A good game by yourself, but great with a friend! This game will be remembered as one of the first truly great next-gen games.

9/10

SKYRIM REVIEW

Haven't posted a review in some time so I figured I'd share my opinion on a little game called Skyrim. Jeff, I know you're a fan of Oblivion, so I'm sure you already have this masterpeice. And if you don't, shame on you. This is an amazing game. Ten times better than Oblivion in every aspect.

Concept- You are the legendary Dragonborn, and it is up to you to save a world being overrun by mysteriously ressurrected dragons! And if you wanna ignore the story and go do your own thing, feel free. There are guilds to join, a Civil War to fight, crypts to loot, wild life to hunt, bounties to collect, and MUCH more.

Graphics- Amazing. This would look good for a game one tenth its size. Great textures, character models, and animation. The draw distance is also pretty great.

Sound- Great on all fronts.Sound effects and voice work is exceptional. And the score is one of the very best in all of gaming.

Game Play- It's Oblivion... but much improved. It controls like a dream. And the 3rd person view is actually playable this time.

Overall- I got this game the day it came out and have been playing it ever since. This is one of my favorite games of all time and Im sure I will continue to play it for years to come. A masterpeice.

10/10
