Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 Review: The latest installment of the WWE series, it is actually a pretty solid game even if your not a wrestling fan. The controls are easy to learn and gameplay, game review, is fluid. If you are a Create-A-holic like me, there are tons of things to do in this game. Create wrestlers looks, moves,taunts, gear and then create your own grapple finishing move or the new top rope finishing, game review, move creator. Then, create your own entrance for them. Then, create your own storyline! Yes, new also is the Story Creation mode.
If your a WWE fan, and love to be creative, you will want to pick this one up to carry home. If not, the gameplay will probably grow stale, game review, after a while. It's worth atleast a rental.

Left 4 Dead 2 Review: It's Post-Apocalypse. Zombies and mutant creatures run rampant through the streets of Louisiana, game review, . What do you do? Grab three of your buddies and shoot/hack your way to freedom through five good length campaigns, four different game modes, and an A.
I. "Director" that changes the pace(monster spawns,weapons and items, etc..), you will be playing, game review, Left 4 Dead 2 long after the evacuation choppers have left. My favorite game mode is Versus where you can also played as specialized Infected characters and try to off the survivors before they make it to the safe house. A Definite BUY for FPS and zombie fans.

Dragon Age: Origins Review Bioware has been perfecting the art, game review, of the RPG for years and this is the crowning jewel so far.
With combat you can choose to go on the fly and program your other members with in depth controls over their actions, or pause and, game review,, game review, give each member a specific action to perform on a specific target. Also, a lot of moral decisions are placed in front of the player, where a lot of grey area is involved, making have to, game review, look within yourself to decide what you would actually do. A lot of these choices do impact the story as well. This allows for a lot of replayability as well as all of the specialist, game review, classes(each character can have 2).
Since you only have to earn, game review, them once, starting a new game leaves them open from the beginning. You will, game review, want to buy this one, as Dragon Age has a lot of content, as well as added new downloadable content from the Developer.

Overlord II Review: Let's face it. Sometimes being the bad guy can be fun., game review, Add an army of hilarious gremlin-like minions at your beck and call, and you would have never thought pillaging the countryside could be so fun.
The controls, game review, take a little getting used to, but they are designed well and make controlling the different types, game review, of minions and your overlord not as such a daunting task as it may seem. You can also craft weapons and armor for your overlord, game review, using the souls of your creepy little friends. The minions are the key to all the puzzles in the game as well as unlocking items and areas. You can resurrect your favorite minions, who will equip weapons and armor(sometimes unique) from fallen, game review, enemies.
One annoying factor I found is the map on the game screen has no compass and turns with your overlord. This can make finding your way difficult, especially with the lack of landmarks in the game environment. The game play also can get repetitive after you have conquered your first couple of towns.

Questions To Ask While Purchasing A Game
There are many games out, game review, there clamoring for your hard earned, game review, money. They all try to dazzle you with fancy artwork, big name stars, and amazing graphics; but, what makes a game fun and what makes a game look good are two separate things.
The, game review, majority of your purchases will be dictated by what type of game you prefer. While we prefer RPG and Adventure games, other people prefer sports and action games, and still others prefer puzzle and mystery games. While there are a vast number of game genres out there,, game review, there simple tips will help you get the most bang for your buck.
Listen to reviewers,, game review, but don't depend on them. Reviewers are often pressed for time and while big name games (Final Fantasy, Zelda, Metal Gear Solid, etc...) can garner a very in-depth review, most games are only played for one or two hours before a final verdict is made. What should you look for in a review?

Each of these will manifest themselves throughout the game. If the game has any of these problems in the few hours the reviewer had with the game, then you can be certain that those problems will continue to manifest themselves in the rest of the game.
Narrow your scope. When I go shopping for a video, game review, game I try to limit the genre of game I'm going to pick up. While I like to keep my options open, there are too many games in too many categories for me to make a decision on. The more, game review, I focus on one (or two) genres, the faster I can make my, game review, decision.
How much value does this game offer for your dollar? This is the meat of your decision. To better answer this question, I break value up into several categories:
How much time does it take, game review, to beat the game? This depends on what type of game you're, game review, looking for.
If you want an expansive RPG you probably don't want to pick up Tetris (of course, if you're looking for a quick 'pick up and play' game, Oblivion isn't your cup of tea).
Can the game be replayed? You can start every game over, but they often get repetitive; for, game review, example, playing Halo 2's single-player missions a second time around tend to get, game review, boring.
Does the game, game review, offer multiplayer/online play? Supporting multiple players can help extend the, game review, life of the game ten-fold.
With its online component, Halo 2 has managed to be a stable game that I go back to again and again.
What content does the game offer? In other words: what reward system does the game use? Are you able, game review, to unlock features or components of the game, or is it a linear game? Generally speaking, games that offer "unlockables" also offer more content, thus more bang for your buck.
By asking yourself these simple questions you can separate yourself from the marketing hype and determine if you're going to have a fun time with the game you're going to purchase.
