[Jet Set]

Under Defeat for the Dreamcast 8/10


Released in 2006 one of the latest Shoot 'em Ups. Graphics are nice, standard Dc graphics with some great explosion animations. It does suffer from complete slowdown when bombing the whole field. Nevertheless the game plays like a charm. Has some nice features in the shooting with an option and three sort of weapons for the option.
Best way to play it is turning your tv around 90 degrees so you can fully enjoy the vertical field. Also it's nice to see a shooter which lack space and futuristic battles and lasers. The helicopter and more surrealistic tanks is a fesh breath ironically. And moves a bit slower than the average frantic shoooter so it's more playable.

As for me, coped a new joint this weekend.

Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) - 10/10

Now I'm no professional game critic, and I know this is just personal opinion. But for real ya'll this game is sick. The visuals alone are damn near next gen, this game looks better than most Xbox 360 titles and it came out a year and a half ago. It was made by the same team responsible for ICO, and has a lot in common with that game. But it shines on it's own for being one of the only games that's strictly open ended. Where ICO relied on puzzle solving to get from one area to the next, you're able to travel this world no holds barred.

This game is different due to it having no enemies. What you get instead are 16 boss fights. And these motherfuckers are HUGE! The goal, decipher theie moves, find their weak point, figure out how to climb them to get to it. The animation is spot on, and very believeable (except for the main character, he kinda has this queer arm swing going for him, but it's forgiveable) And the Colossi are fluidly animated. The first time you find yourself climbing on one of these giants and it tries to shake you off you'll be hooked in I've killed 5 of them so far so I only have 11 more to go and I can't bring myself to pull this out the PS2 till it's finished.

For real though, even if you just rent it, please do. It's one of the shining gems on the PS2.

Im playing right now Twilight Princess ... and even if I haven't finished it yet, I can already say it's disa.ppointing and pretty boring ... it's time for the Zelda saga to really evolve.

I installed Black & White 2 two days ago, thought I should give it a shot. The first could have been better, but it was such a great and innovative idea, so it was still cool. Played #2 a little, and I like it, even if it's no 9.5/10. I love it how you can now make the beast pick up boulders and trees to work out with and build muscules. The rival creatures didn't see it coming lol.

And just to mention, greatest game in the history of computerism is Baldur's Gate, just so you know it. Followed maybe by the GTA-series, Warcraft II and some more.

Sonic The Hedgehog (xbox 360) 6.5/10
The game's alright but the camera is still screwed so it helps you kill yourself

Saints Row 8/10
A good game with good music but the glitches just ruin the game

WWE Smackdown vs Raw '07 7/10
Definate improvement from the '06 version and an improvement from the PS version

Tony Hawks Project 8 9/10
Again this game is better than the PS2 version although it's totally different (where the 360 is based on the idea that AW used for one large level that you can eventually unlock, the PS2 version had each seperate bit in different levels. You can't bail like the 360 version because PS2 hasn't got the ragdoll physics. When you do the film bits the little screen doesn't come up on the tv, and the PS2 version doesn't have the slums) The "nail the trick" move is amazing and hopefully will be used again

Phantasy Star Universe (offline) 8/10
I haven't put much time into this game yet but I'm still impressed. An improvement from Phantasy Star Online, I haven't played this online yet though

THP8 is great
