Halo 2

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Action
from: Microsoft

November 09, 2004
I was one of the many that pre-ordered halo 2 because I enjoyed the first one so much. About me and seven of my friends bought it at the midnight release and went to my buddies house where we played it all night and my friend and I beat the co-op storyline around 8 or 9 the next morning. There were some things I liked and hated about the game.

Storyline: If you played the first one the storyline is lacking and really straightforward. You play the "hero", fight against aliens and save humanity/earth whatever. For the second one when they released video clips it made it sound as if the aliens found earth and are attacking it and you (master chief) were turning earth into a crazy urban war between humans and aliens. Its been a long ... Read More:

Halo: Combat Evolved

Not much for me to say. I beat Halo 2 and 3 on Legendary, but had never even played Halo 1. Kinda sad. So I got the game, and also beat it on Legendary. I think it's much tougher than Halo 2, but it's a classic. If you haven't played it yet, you must, if you are fan of the Halo franchise.

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II

The original is one of my favorites ever. When I beat this I couldn't help feel disappointed. It just lacks on so many levels. First off the story is no where near as good as the first, but its not terribly bad. They probably could have made it better but it is often confusing and not all that interesting.

This one is much darker than the first which might please people. Everything else though isn't an improvement over the first though. The graphics are actually worse than the first. The game was rushed for the holidays though, still there's no excuse for the weak graphics and glitches this game has.

The characters, while pretty good just don't compare to the original. My main issue with the characters though is one character, which ... Read More:

The best star wars game in history! the only way to game! i have for PSP and Xbox.psp version is not the best but the xbox is great! my only complaint in that you cant lie down and snipe but thats o.k. The worst map is the jedi tempel because you get blown to bits sooooo easily by one blaster shot. the best maps are: death star,space maps,and mos eilsy.
the map that needs work on the grphics is felucia. buy now this is the best game ever!!!!!!

Max Payne

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Action
from: Rockstar Games


Max Payne dishes out thrills like there's no tomorrow, and is definitely one of the original Xbox's finest action titles. It may be a third-person shooter, but that doesn't mean it isn't as cool as any other shooter.
WHAT THE GAME IS: You are Max Payne; a cop whose life has gone down the crapper because of the murders of his wife and baby, and now he's being accused of murder of a cop. So you must take out mafia and gang groups with a large arsenal weapons and descend into the New York underworld of crime, while solving clues and avoiding capture.
GRAPHICS: Time has not been kind to this game, it was released 6-7 years ago and the graphics don't look good, but rather blocky.
SOUND: Shooting, explosions, dying screams of enemies, and fairly good voice-acting. ... Read More:

Max Payne 2 The Fall of Max Payne

...by producing dull paint-by-numbers sequels. The original Max Payne was inventive (with its bullet-time interludes and playable nightmare sequences) and moody (pulp comic storytelling and Noir York backdrops), and held my attention despite some pretty serious gameplay and difficulty balance flaws. Unfortunately Max Payne 2 has retained the flaws and added nothing new to the experience.

MP2 is still too easy with Bullet Time assistance, far too many health and ammo powerups, and an overall simple level of play. I'm just an average shooter player, but I breezed through it in a few hours. And maybe due to less inspired level structure than the first (warehouses...ughh), it felt shorter. The complex time-warped romance of MP2 is disorienting and silly, and by the halfway ... Read More:

Bottom line this is the next best thing to The Force Unleashed! Controls and camera are not the best, but if your are a hugs Star Wars gamer like me, then this is a must for the collection!

Star Wars Republic Commando

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Action
from: Lucas Arts Entertainment

February 28, 2005
The skinny on this game is that it rocks. The squad that you command has some pretty good A.I. and the enemy's A.I. may throw some surprises at you too. The range of enemies isn't the greatest, but you may find yourself surprised who (or what) you end up fighting. The range of weapons starts out as basic, but if you keep your eyes open, you can get your hands on some pretty devastating weapons. The gunfights range from what seems like child's play, all the way to "This Is Impossible!" fights. While there aren't any vehicles at your disposal, there are various types of turrets, capable of unleashing hell on enemies foolish enough to get within range. Overall, this fast-paced shoot'em up set in the Star Wars universe was a lot of fun. I found it to be one of the best Star Wars games yet, ... Read More:
