I've been looking forward to this one for awhile now, all I can say is that I'm having some mixed feelings on The Conduit. I'll just run down the positives and negatives.
For on thing the graphics are great for a Wii game, and the controls work well despite the Wii controller not having many buttons.
The main thing that drags The Conduit down is the level design. It's so poor, the environments you explore aren't challenging and don't have many hazards, (expect for the enemies) and the puzzles you're faced with solving are very easy. The last thing wrong with The Conduit is that sometimes the camera can be a problem; trying to turn around makes the camera get stuck pointing straight up for a few seconds for some reason.
Overall this is no Half-Life or Halo, but I will say it's much better than other first-person shooters I've played on the Wii. But still, I'm disappointed with the overall game design and difficulty.
I'm not sure about this one, maybe I should keep playing it to get a better opinion on it. Until then if you're interested in checking out The Conduit, then you may want to rent this first.
The zombie genre has recently become one of my favorites. I didn't know what to expect when I first bought The House of the Dead: Overkill, other than it's a rail gun shooter.
But I'm very impressed, the visuals look great, and the controls work very well. This has also got to be the funniest game I have ever played. It reminds me of the movie Grindhouse, and one of the main characters Detective Washington sounds just like Samuel L. Jackson.
The only things I dislike is that the story mode is really short, and the weapon purchasing and upgrading system sucks. But beside that, it's a really fun game.
I'm thinking about getting the Resident Evil games next. I'm just going to start off with the first Resident Evil that's available on GameCube, and possibly Resident Evil 0 some time later.
UPDATE: I'm thinking of returning this. Don't get me wrong, this is a fun game. But it's just after you beat it, then that's it. The replay value is really low, plus it's way too easy. I recommend renting this first before buying it.
Like the title says it was my birthday a few days ago. I would've done something a the actual day; but with E3 going on I was more occupied with all the news and announcements going on. So I'll just be brief here.
I have no idea why I never got this when I was kid. Well, better late than never. I can say even after all these years Mario Kart 64 is a blast to play, especially with friends. It's basic and simple, and that's what makes it so much fun.
This is a great game, probably the best Call of Duty ever made.The single player campaign is long and fun, you can play as the Americans in Normandy, the British in North Africa, and the Russians in Stalingrad. I can see why this was a launch game for the 360.
You thought Gears of War was violent? You haven't seen anything yet. MadWorld is an insane game with limitless fun and enjoyment. I love the art design using only the colors black and white, it's very surreal. The motion controls work well and are very responsive, and its sick twisted humor has left laughing me for days.
I guess it was a pretty good birthday.
