Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm going to start doing some game reviews every once in a while if you guys are interested. I'll do mine of Smackdown Vs Raw 2011 because it's the latest new game I've played but others will follow. I will post it in a couple of days.

Fire Prowrestling Returns. The only wrestling game you'll ever need. 3nodding

Smackdown vs Raw is a series almost every wrestling fan has played. You may have loved them or hated them, but you've played them. Smackdown Vs Raw 2011 is the latest installment. Many of the frustrations of the previous games have been corrected, such as the career mode and not being able to edit downloaded creations, while new problems have been created. Perhaps the most anticipated new feature is the WWE Universe mode. In this mode the "universe" revolves around you. Every match you play, every opponent you face has some effect on the lives of the superstars. This provides for a more realistic feel to the career mode. It does have it's problems however, for example the heel wrestlers attack the face wrestlers from behind. While this is realistic to the world of professional wrestling, it happens way too often. It feels like every match at a PPV I'm being blindsided by The Miz or Chris Jericho. Another new feature is the backstage roaming in The Road To Wrestlemania mode. Many will remember this from Here Comes The Pain, an old Smackdown game. This does give you something to do besides matches and cutscenes however the backstage area is too big and it feels like every time you try to interact with someone they either insult you (Morrison called me a jobber! The nerve!) or tell you to get lost. Sometimes it just feels tedious and you wish you could just skip to the match and other times it's a lot of fun. Another great new feature is the new physics system.They have completely revamped the physics and grappling. Now, instead of doing your strong grapples by holding R1 and moving the right stick, you now do your grapples by just moving the right stick to initiate your hold in the different grapple positions. When you're opponent is groggy you do a series of four groggy grapples which are somewhat stronger than your normal grapples. You can also do directional grapples where you do a suplex or a powerbomb and you move the stick to where you want them to go. This helps if you want to do a suplex onto a table or a chair. The physics system is most prominent in the new TLC match. Now, instead of there having to be two people on a ladder to push it over, you can push it with just one person on the ladder. This makes the match more realistic, but it seems like every time you get close to getting the belt or briefcase you're getting pushed over. And while on the subject of getting pushed over, you can now push the superstars over onto the tables making it much more realistic. With all these new features and fixed problem the faults are very conspicuous and you aren't really bothered by them all that much. I reccomend any wrestling fan pick this up rather sooner than later.

9/10

It takes devotion, put it that way.

Killer 7- Gamecube

For those who don't know this game, it can be a little is REALLY weird.
The game starts with Harman Smith, an old assassin who is confined to a wheel chair. He communicates to Garcian Smith who gets in contact with clients who tell you the targets you need to kill. The game Revolves around 7 assassins that you control. Dan Smith, Kaede Smith, Mask De Smith, Con Smith, Coyote Smith, Kevin Smith and Garcian Smith. The game has unconventional controls in which you are basically on a single path with branching side areas. You use the buttons to move and the joystick to choose a side area when you reach a branching area. The only time these controls change is when you start shooting. When you hear a creep laugh you take aim and start shooting. The enemies are called heaven smiles and the are some of the creepiest mother ******** you will see in the game. Not because of their appearance but because of their creepy laugh. They don't do much of an attack to you other than walking up to you and exploding. There are many different kind of Heaven Smiles and can be differentiated by the type of creepy laugh they have. One thing you will notice about the game is the gorgeous artwork in this game. The Shading works well with the artwork to produce one really good looking game. Another thing to mention is that this game is MATURE. I know a lot of games say mature, but this one is REALLY mature. There are may depictions off blood, profanity and sexual references. And I don't recommend this game if you scare easily. But overall this is a great game for those who love a good story but don't mind being confused. And trust me, you will be confused.

9.5/10
