Super Smash Bros.. Brawl

Super Smash Bros.. was born with the developers of HAL Laboratory nine years ago. The game hit and became a worldwide success story on the Nintendo 64. A sequel was inevitable, and in 2002 appeared Super Smash Bros.. Melee for Gamecube. For the third part, which was recently published for the Wii, developer Sora took over HAL.

The cast of Brawl
Super Smash Bros.. Brawl is not a traditional fighting game. There are no lengthy button combinations that you need to learn by heart and you play with a wide variety of characters. Opponents beat you to run through their damage meter and eventually make a powerful smash attack, allowing them to be beaten. Literally from the field them So far nothing new under the sun, so too did it stand in the previous two sections. So the question is what's Brawl to new possibilities.

E3 2008: Star Wars The Force Unleashed

Many people in their thirties who grew up with Star Wars have few good words about George Lucas and his last trilogy (Episode I, II and III). The hatred that some Star Wars junkies compared to the second trilogy of expressing Lucas goes very far. Yet the criticism that the Star Wars games have been understandable in recent years. The potency of the Star Wars license is unlimited, but time and again it was not the bottom of the barrel achieved in the development of the games.

ForceUnleashed2008
About commercial success LucasArts has nothing to complain about. Star Wars: Battlefront was very well sold both children and Star Wars fans of the first hour were charmed by the Star Wars Lego games. However, the glory days of Jedi Knight or Rogue Squadron II continued: Rogue Leader an echo from a distant past. Only developer Bioware did with Knights of the Old Republic, the Star Wars magic part call. Again

Meanwhile, LucasArts has realized that it should be treated. Carefully with his licensed games Therefore lacked hastily put together Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull example at E3, and is almost four years to Star Wars: The Force Unleashed worked. This third-person action game could be seen as the spiritual successor to Jedi Outcast, with more emphasis on Force Powers than ever before

E3 2008: Gears of War 2

Cliffy B., the lead game designer of Gears of War and Gears of War 2, is never afraid to do. Oversimplified statements Since developer Epic earlier this year revealed Gears of War 2, he preaches the gospel Gears of War 2, through its three pillars: 'Bigger, Better, More Bad Ass! "

Gears2
Incidentally Cliff Cliffy B. would not be called more. This nickname, which he used for years, according to him, has been settled. We talk to his request so again just about Cliff Bleszinski. The reason for his name change? The game designer claims to be grown, and it fits the name of a member of a boy band not to. He remains happy nonetheless still a bit of a child, for his penchant for ultra-violent shooters bubbling unabated through his veins.

The question is whether Gears of War 2, the words Bleszinski next, indeed bigger, better, and, uh ... horrible than ever. The game offers at least more gameplay time, both as a single play in multiplay. Indeed game graphic looks nicer and more detailed and the gameplay feels overwhelming and pleasant grotesque than that of its predecessor

E3 2008: Fable 2 - Molyneux 'Magnum Opus?

Peter Molyneux is a man standing in the game industry. He is a veteran, headpiece and visionary at the same time, with titles like Syndicate, Populous, Magic Carpet and Dungeon Keeper to his name.


After he sold his company Bullfrog Electronic Arts, Molyneux Lionhead Studios has built up a studio which soon became famous with the godgame Black & White. Molyneux is also known as the creator of equally imaginative and unrealistic plans. He had lofty ambitions with Black & White - and later with Fable - and he came up with improbable ideas that could never be achieved. This really was the credibility of Molyneux not good.

Then also Black & White 2 and The Movies not brought the hoped-for success, Molyneux 'reputation seemed to lose gloss. 'Leek', because with Fable 2, the English charmer again the press and the public packed. Furthermore, Molyneux learned from his enthusiastic commitment. Information about Fable 2 brings him little by little to the outside, rather than put all his cards on the table at once and high tower blow. Although he can let that last sometimes not at all. In an interview he recently said that Fable 2 is the game that Fable should have been.


With that statement he's partly right. Some ideas that ultimately did not make Fable is present in Fable 2. Moreover, the action-RPG gets a lot better, emotion office story, says Molyneux. We know the latter is true only when we have played the game quite what hopefully in the winter months of 2008 will happen. About the potential and the gameplay of this second Fabel we can fix the other say.

SBK 08: Superbike World Championship

While motorsport events in Spain and Italy rise to complete folk festivals, the love for this sport in the Netherlands remains largely confined to the city of Assen. Netherlands, the last few years more in motorsports country, but with the TT-circuit or a location where all the major championships are held.


So why earlier this year the Superbike on the circuit, the class which is at the motor racing game SBK 08: Superbike World Championship. All drivers, teams and circuits from the 2008 season are present. So expect riders like Troy Bayliss, Max Biaggi and Troy Corser. In the game, they take on all the official circuits against each other, including the TT Circuit Assen. It's very nice to see that all aspects of the license of the Superbikes are fine elaborated.

Mario Kart + Wheel Wii Review

Nintendo has created a new Mario Kart for his console. After the SNES, Nintendo 64 and GameCube Mario Kart Wii is the next in line of this famous series. In addition to an innovative and fine classic way of control, the racing turned out very nice. Speed ​​has become the code word of this Wii game. Objective The objective of this game is simple. Race from a to b and pick the move items on the opponent to make it difficult. These items range from banana to a bullet to pick up mushrooms that give you turbos. Meters The only disadvantage is that you will get back the better items, and you should do it. Front with such a small banana So, you can from 1st to 6th place pockets while you almost won. Controls The new controller is designed for the casual gamer. It uses the included Wii Wheel, with a move to the left / right causes you to continue racing in that direction. A move while jumping up and you make a stunt. This is all very natural running and the steering wheel is definitely not a dud, but such a thing. For those who have a GameCube controller, it is advisable to use. It sends better and you have the feeling that you have some control, because that happens. Besides these two methods also can get a combination of the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, or use the traditional controller. Tracks




A game like Mario Kart is not particularly beautiful or has tremendously good graphics. These games need to have the tracks. There are 16 new and 16 old in of earlier Mario Karts. The tracks are almost all nicely done, but there are also very simple as a track from the Nintendo 64. Beyond an ice rink and some penguins come out. In contrast, there are also very beautiful with lots of color and good music. A good example is Maple Treeway, one in which you drive around in a natural forest environment, in the fall. The accompanying music makes this one of my favorite tracks. Online and multiplayer Mario Kart is not a game you play for its single player. So that you also finish playing without much trouble. The fact that this game in your Wii let sit for months because you can play it. Against others This can be offline or online against up to three people via WiFi with up to eleven people. This is the first Mario Kart for a game console's online mode, and I must say, it's all very well developed. Lag and fellows (a technique where you use continuous turbos) are not. Therefore there is a fairer chance to win for everyone.


Conclusion
Mario Kart is the perfect party game and for anyone who has a Wii, this is also highly recommended to buy.
Used in conjunction with:
Wii Wheel

Battlefield: Bad Company

The movie Three Kings tells the story of three soldiers in the Gulf War, which leave the war for what it is and go hunting for fortune.
