Hehe, sexcellent, I didn't figure there were many people who used that one. ;)

I'm surprised my brother hasn't done this one yet...

Gears of War

Grade- Holy sith Awesome!! (That's an A by the way) :p

This is definitely a game that you all need to play. Well, if you're into gory, action packed, beautiful looking, easily controllable shooters. I read a review that gave the plot of this game a thumbs down, but all I have to say is, he's a friggin magazine editor, and we can't trust them as far as we can throw them.

The gameplay is incredible, and the story line is awesome. The game ends with you wanting more, which can some times be a bad thing, but not in this case. It leaves off perfectly for at least one more game, and while I can't wait for it to come out, this one has definitely not gotten old yet. The replay value is tremendous. While I generally suck at these types of games, that is easily remedied with the co-op mode if you have an experienced player playing with you (As in my case). Co-op play is probably the best I've seen so far, other than, of course, the Halo series.

I could go on and on about the wonders of this game, but the best way to experience it is to play it. Granted, having a 360 is necessary, but as someone who has never really thought of Microsoft in the highest regards when it comes to console gaming, this does make me a believer. I would honestly get a 360 just for this game. If I had the money. :p

You know...I'm actually surprised I didn't review this...

You'd think I would have lol

But...there is a reason behind why I didn't review it. I didn't really want to review a game that I've been looking forward to more than a Halo game....

For me to review Gears pf War would be like Peter Jackson reviewing the first of the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. It would be waaaay to biased.

I've been waiting for GoW for over a year....and since I read the first description of the game, and I knew of the basic elements of gameplay from the beginning....there isn't really much I can say about it. The game lived up to what they boasted about....and way more.

To suffice....GoW = Halo 2 x 25.

Thus.....Gow - PWNS Halo. (I don't care how your math figures that out.....just know that GoW is what Halo envisioned + so ewoking much more)

And what's so wrong about about going out and buying a 360 :p

Granted GoW is a must have....but there are a ton of good games for it that are worth the price of the 360 :p

Yea, but overall, the PS3 is cheaper. Cause once you upgrade the 360 for WiFi, HD DvD and all wireless controllers, it costs more than the $599 version of the PS3 which has all that stuff built right in.

Game: Resistance

Console: PS3

Rating: A

Comments: A very realistic game. You can completely shoot out windows, shoot concrete barriers to the point where they fall apart. Gameplay really pulls you into it. The storyline plays really well...I remember seeing ads for the game and thinking that it was a movie. Some of the action feels a little overdone, but that's probably just because I'm female.

Finally, a real review, from a real person. ;)

Till now, all I've read about the game was in magazines, but it's nice to hear something more concrete from someone I know...in a strictly online sense. ;) Especially from a girl. :D

^-^ glad to be of service

here's another one...

Game: Ridge Racer 7

Console: PS3

Rating: B

Comments: There's just something about the AI that Chris, Robert, and I all agree is off. The other cars don't act the way yours done when it and it provides an unfair advantage when racing. All else aside, it's a decent game.

I like how the Wii has a loading screen that says something along the lines of..."Why don't you pause your game and take a break?" and then it shows you a picture of the outside through a window.

I just ignore it and play more Zelda.

Then I switch to my 360 and play GoW.

Then I watch cartoons and play World of Warcraft.

Freakin sweet.

Hmmm...here we go...
