Hitman: Blood Money (Xbox 360)


Hitman: Blood Money (Xbox 360)
In a nutshell:
Agent 47 is back in the game that finally does full justice to the Hitman concept, with huge improvements to the graphics, controls and, most importantly, the number of ways for you to plan your hits - from wading in guns blazing to making it all look like a simple accident.

The lowdown:
Although the Hitman games were always a great idea they never quite worked the way you expected, with an awkward control system and camera and far less freedom than it at first seemed. This latest sequel solves almost all these problems, starting with a standard third person camera over which you have full control. Although you can ask for hints on how to carry out a hit you’ve so many options the game’s almost like a macabre graphic adventure - do you use the remote detonated bomb on the chandelier winch in the ballroom or plug the secretary’s Coke with poison and hide in the cupboard? The new notoriety system seems a bit pointless but otherwise this gets almost everything right.

Most exciting moment:
The game features tons of new additions like grabbing human shields, a quick draw for your gun and the ability to hide bodies. The most fun though is the simple sounding push option, which allows you to sneak up behind someone and send them flying off a balcony by “accident”.

Since you ask:
Blood Money includes various references to previous Hitman games, the most prominent being the Paris mission in an Opera house, which acts as a prequel to Hitman: Contracts.

The bottom line:
The best Hitman game yet, that makes a real effort to fix the flaws of the previous games.

Customer Review: the world shall kneel !!!!!!!!!!
i have just got this game and it is the best game i have played on there is nothing that you can’t do you can get human shields, take uniforms, push people off cliffs to make it look like suicide and people do not just collapse on the floor when you kill them.the only thing that needs improving is that there is not enough of it there are fourteen levels and considering the length is more than substantial but all outstanding games cand be improved by making it longer.

Customer Review: A great sequel from a great series
Sadly, it shows that it is a last gen port. The graphics range from PS2 standard to excellent. Fortunately the gameplay is still excellent regardless of the games graphical standards. It doesn’t deviate much from the previous installments, so fans will knowwhat to expect.

Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (Xbox 360) In a nutshell:
The surprise hit of 2005 is back and this time it’s moved on from the prequels and onto “proper” Star Wars. It may sound like one of the worst excesses of marketing hell but this is good enough to rejuvenate your love for both video games and Star Wars (and Lego)!

The lowdown:
As ridiculous as the idea sounds this is one of the few games that really can be played by all ages, from tots to grandparents - the game even adjusts its difficultly level on the fly depending how well you’re doing. The graphics are absolutely hilarious as the game pokes gentle fun at all the films and characters and uses the Lego motif so you can build new structures and objects as you go. With more playable characters than ever each now has their own special move, such as Chewbacca’s ability to pull the arms off Stormtroopers, and you can get in and out of vehicles whenever you want in some levels.

Most exciting moment:
The game features a large number of vehicles to drive, including landspeeders and AT-STs. You can also ride a Dewback which excretes an ominous looking brown Lego stud if you press a button…

Since you ask:
The all important two player co-op mode from the first game is still in the sequel, plus you can now design your own characters out of component Lego pieces. Darth Greedo, anyone?

The bottom line:
The Force is strong with this one.

Customer Review: Don’t be a cynic - play it!!
Ok.. so this game sounds childish and silly - just for 3 years olds right? Wrong.

I am 28 and my partner is 29 and we are addicted. Its brilliant!! It takes aaages to get all the achievment points and there’s just tons of super fun game play here. It’s not too easy (I was worried that it might be) and its not too hard.

Positives: The amount of characters, levels, ships,minigames and the sheer fun value you get out of this game, whether playing it alone or in co-op mode. The star wars lego cut-scenes are hilarious!

Negatives: not many to be honest.. depth perception can be difficult. Sometimes the camera angles can be awkward. In co-op mode you cannot sign in with a second profile and unlock the achievements for both. Only player one will get the credit. The levels with the ships can be a bit chaotic…

All in all this is just brilliant, I was really surprised.
Customer Review: Fun to play…Incredibly Frustrating To Save!
I like this game a lot. It’s a laugh to play as you go through the various famous Star Wars scenes and stuff as a Lego character (the Lego Boombox that blasts out a heavy metal version of the Imperial March, making Gamorrean guards rock out is one of the best things I’ve seen!) However, I find trying to save your progress in this game EXTREMELY frustrating! For some reason when you clear a chapter and your autosave kicks in, it doesn’t save your progress properly and you end up right back at the Mos Eisley cantina when you reload your game. Not cool.

I plan to keep playing this game and figure out what’s going wrong, but that in itself is something no gamer should have to do. In short, great game, LOUSY saving system!

Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie (Xbox 360)


Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie (Xbox 360)
In a nutshell:
Video games based on movies have never had a terrific track record but this looks like breaking the mould forever. Not only is the Peter Jackson himself involved; but so is the Michel Ancel, creator of video game classics such as Rayman. The results look extraordinary.

The lowdown:
You take on the roles of both Jack Driscoll and the mighty Kong. Being the big monkey is great, naturally, but the feeling of power is neatly turned on its head when you play as the considerably more vulnerable Jack. It’s an intense, absorbing romp.

Most exciting moment:
Escaping down some white water rapids as a puny human, chased by two tyrannosaurs rex.

Since you ask:
Peter Jackson loved Michel Ancel’s Beyond Good & Evil game so much that he asked him to make Kong.

The bottom line:
Potentially, the most cinematic video game ever made.
Harrison Dent

Customer Review: king kong did not go wrong well not for king kong fans at least
this is first xbox 360 a game i played when i got my xbox on launch day. and it did not disappoint me this game is for king kong fans as i am a big one. i loved this game the feeling of power as kong when you wrestle a tyrannosaurus rex to the ground and pull its jaws apart. or as jack the feeling of weakness as you are being chased by raptors. in my opinion this is truly a great game. but if you are not a big fan of king kong and just looking for a new game to play you may find this to be a bit repetitive. i still to this day occasionally play it. i just hope they bring something else out like this soon.

Customer Review: A Great Movie.. Average Game!
King Kong the game is one of the best game-movie conversions in years I feel, but sadly the gameplay lets it down somewhat. The game follows the movie very closely overall with some very impressive graphics to match, but the gameplay is often a bit wobbly, especially as you progress through to later levels in the game.

In the game you start off in control of the main character Jack whom you control throughout much of the game in FPS view. The FPS view is ok but a bit wobbly in some levels I felt and sometimes the control can be a bit tricky to master as well, although before long you should master the controls in no time. You also get the chance to play as King Kong in a few of the later levels which is probably the best feature about this game. You control Kong in third person view and basically you control Kong around the jungle jumping from vines to trees avoiding and killing enemies along the way.

The game itself is hard I felt. I’ve read a lot of reviews on the web saying how easy this game is but I felt King Kong to be one of the hardest games I’ve ever played. There is a cheat code you can use in the 360 version which admittidly I had to use because without it, I doubt I would have been able to complete the game.

One of the best features about this game on the 360 version is the ability to easilly get the achievements. Per achievement you earn a massive 100 gamerscore which I thought was great and even if you use the cheats you can still earn the achievements which is another great thing, so you can earn 1000 gamerscore fairly easily in King Kong, especially if you decide to use cheats.

But overall, in spite of this, King Kong is not the best game I’ve played. The graphics are great but the gameplay could have been so much better.

Customer Review: As good if not better than M/S wheel
I bought a Logitech wheel for myself after my official 360 wheel went wrong (again!) The performance of wheel compared to x-box simply put, is more comfortable, better built, clamps down to a surface firmer and reacts just as well as the force fed wheel but considerably cheaper. You can also adjust sensitivity of wheel whilst playing unlike the M/S wheel!
Customer Review: Great wheel A++
This wheel is great, Its like a wired version of microsofts wheel. But with this one its better because it doesnt need the game to support its wheel unlike the wireless one. This one uses axial force feedback… Its great! Diffrent sensory modes and everything A*!

FIFA 08 (Xbox 360)

The greatest battle of the new football season is not between any real world club but between the virtual giants of FIFA and Pro Evolution Soccer. Konami’s game has always been the favourite but last year FIFA closed the gap to such a degree that the title race has never been closer. This year’s FIFA uses a completely new game engine, for the first time built specifically for the next gen consoles. But improved graphics and animation are only the half of it, with just as much focus going on the artificial intelligence thanks to the new “35 point decision engine”. What this basically means is that every player on the pitch is fully aware of those around him and constantly thinking about tactics and position when not under your control.

Other changes include better modelled physics for taking a shot on goal, which take into account everything from air pressure to the angle of your foot. You’re also able to create your own special moves to replicate every possible trick from real life. There are also new game modes including Be A Pro which challenges you to play the role of a single player through a whole season or career. On top of this there are revamped online leagues to play a virtual season in the Premier League, Bundesliga, French League or Mexican 1st Division against real opponents. With 620 licensed teams, 30 offline leagues and 15,000 players as well FIFA might just have made enough new signings this year to put it over the top.

Customer Review: Good but RIDDLED with problems!
Had this game since Christmas and have played it quite extensivley. Completed afew season on semi-pro and found the game overall to be very very good. Multi player is also great fun. Overall a great game. HOWEVER, decided to step up to Proffessional mode as i was winning everything…things changed!! Your players become utterly stupid and unable to remember how to play football. The other teams, in changing the difficulty level up one level, become a team of Ronaldinho’s compared to the slow, non-responive players on your team. And this is not due to me being bad at the game. Your players cannot control the ball, your goalkeeper is useless and players not being controlled by yourself, their AI is useless. Against slighlty better teams it is impossible to score unless you are clear one on one with the goalkeeper and even then it is still hard to beat him. And as for free kicks…what is the point in winning one….it takes weeks to even get close to geting a free kick over the wall and even on target and a free kick from anywhere not in goal scoring distance is a waste as its impossible to pick anyone out…compared to the super skills of all AI teams, where if you concede a free kick about 10 yards out from the edge of your box…it will either curl straight in or hit the post…EVERY TIME! I have now become stupidly frustrated with this game! EA really need to work the kinks out of this for the next installment. Im a FIFA fan over ProEvo anyday but far too many niggling little things to take the enjoyment out when you become good at the game
Customer Review: Good solid football game better than pro evo
i have had this game since Christmas and it is great i have also played the pro evo game and it is not nearly as good so if you want a football game that you can play time and time again get Fifa 08
