Fantastic 4 Review for PlayStation 2 at GameSpot

2005-07-10T09:17:00.000-07:00

Fantastic 4 Review for PlayStation 2 at GameSpot: "Fantastic 4's biggest failing is that it lacks a lot in the overall feel of the gameplay, which is important for a beat-'em-up. While you can see onscreen that you're picking up barrels and cars and throwing them at legions of foes, the controls don't make you feel all that powerful. What's more, the controls feel imprecise and floaty. The targeting system in the game is clunky, and it's sometimes difficult to lock on to anything, let alone switch between targets. "

Batman Begins Review for PlayStation 2 at GameSpot

2005-06-18T12:48:00.000-07:00

Batman Begins Review for PlayStation 2 at GameSpot: "While reviews of the film Batman Begins indicate that the caped crusader has made a turnaround of sorts on the silver screen, we can't say the same about him as a video game superhero. Yes, the new Batman Begins game from Electronic Arts and Eurocom certainly captures the fearsome new look of Batman as portrayed in the movie. And the inclusion of high-quality voice work from Christian Bale, Liam Neeson, and the other stars from the film also contributes a lot to the overall package. Unfortunately, the gameplay feels too much like a mishmash of several other well-known gaming franchises and ends up overly simplistic. While the game is still worth a look for Batman fans, you can't help but feel that an opportunity was missed to make something more special."

PlayStation 3: Inside and Out: "The new PlayStation 3 controller resembles what can very easily be described as a 'batarang.' The crescent shaped controller looks to offer the same number of buttons and analog joysticks as the PlayStation 2 controller in a new, aerodynamic design that is sure to strike fear into the criminal element. The ever-present square, circle, triangle, and X buttons make their appearance in the same arrangement as in previous Dual Shock 2 controllers. The familiar dual analog joysticks and D pad are located in all the right places. "

Naval Campaigns 3: GuadalcanalThis new simulation shares the virtues of the previous Naval Campaigns games, Jutland and Tsushima: a robust, easy-to-play design whose authenticity will surely please naval-combat enthusiasts. It also shares those games’ decided shortcomings: a dry, Spartan, minimalist presentation that eschews animated battle scenery in favor of generic ship symbols, abstracted numerical damage-effect calculations, tiny water-splashes, and microscopic pepper-grains that represent shell trajectories.

Act of War: Direct Action Impressions - Act of War: Direct Action Previews for PC at GameSpot: "The game's storyline, which revolves around an oil company conglomerate that's looking to raise oil prices, will see you reacting to terrorist attacks in the first couple of missions--before you go on the offensive and start hunting down those responsible for these attacks. In the single-player campaign, you'll be playing both as the modern-day US Army and as the 'Task Force Talon,' an antiterrorist unit with access to experimental and near-futuristic weaponry. We got to see a number of different units in action during our demo, including some accurate re-creations of the US Army's Paladin and Abrams tanks and the Apache helicopter. The Task Force Talon will employ a number of remotely piloted vehicles and drones in its war on terror, although the unit that we actually got see in action, which Strandberg described as the Talon's signature unit, was a 'Shield Unit' that comprises a marine in a powerful exoskeleton. Details on the third faction in the game, the terrorists, are being kept under wraps for the time being, but we understand that you will be able to play as the terrorists only in multiplayer games.

PlayStation 2: Kessen III: Hands-On

PlayStation 2: Kessen III: Hands-On: "I had the opportunity to sit down with the final Japanese version of Kessen III today so that I could see just how different it is from its predecessors. Needless to say, the changes are immediately noticeable and depending on your opinion of the second installment and the strategy genre in general, is either a grand improvement or a terrible disaster. Beginning with the death of Nobunaga Oda, the game goes back in time to the beginning of Nobunaga's ascent up the military ladder. Essentially a memoir of the life and times of the great Japanese leader, Kessen III tells a story that spans 13 different chapters and more than 50 different levels."
