Pirates of the Carribean:At World’s End

(6.75/10.00) Yarghhh!!!! I got a chance to play the new Pirates game, and here’s what I think, Savvy!??!! Playing through the first thwo or three levels, I thought the swordplay was pretty cool in your bosses, but not as cool when you’re taking on the mindless minions. The “jackanisms”, which were little minigames where you had to pull of analog/button combos to unlock something, were also neat. The environments were also kinda pretty. The gameplay was pretty straightforward:L1 to block, Square and Circle to attack. The replay was also cool, allowing you to play through previous missions as different characters, although your new character, say Davy Jones, would still do the same things as say, Jack Sparrow. It was pretty weird seeing women slap ol’ Davy and people call him Jack. Overall, this was a pretty fun game for your Pirates fans who want to play out the movie, but to a hardcore gamer, they’ll just wish for more. 

Game of the Week:June 17-23

Posted in Video Games at 3:52 pm by earl

Well, this week has been better than others. We got some pretty good releases, inluding the good-time racer DIRT. We also had some pretty bad releases, like Raw Danger. Overall, it’s been a better-than-average week. But there was one game that stood out above the rest, and it’s been released 4 times to date! And it’s for the Wii. It’s name is Resident Evil 4. I know, I know, I already gave it this award when it came out on the PC, but the Wii version truly exceeds. Thanks to great use of motion-sensing, fun gameplay, and the fact it’s on the Wii, this is Game of the Week!
