have a nice day :)

Happy thanks giving everyone ^_^

Halo 3

The first thing I noticed when I started the halo 3 campaign was the graphics, there simply amazing, the screen shots from the halo 3 multiplayer beta just don’t do it justice.

you could even see the vanes on the leaves of the plants under foot, I was really surprised the graphics were as good as they are.

You are once again on earth, your mission, to finish what they started, alongside your allies the arbiter, sarge, and captain keys you must fight all your old enemies in all new ways. The storyline is intense as you fight your way through the brutes, there forces, and the flood to save what’s left of the human race, and there are some major plot twists in store.

Bungie had a lot more up there selves then they were letting on, some of the new weapons include the mauler, gravity hammer, and flamethrower, there is also a new human flying vehicle called the hornet, though sadly it can only be flown in the campaign.

Another fun aspect of halo 3 is the theater, wish your friends had seen that incredible over kill you got with the sniper? Save it and play it back later, you can also take screen shots and upload them to bungie.net you can find yourself spending hours just going though replays and taking awesome or hilarious screen shots, if that’s your kind of thing.

Then there’s forge, while it is lacking in some areas it lets you make some pretty fun, or goofy custom games to play with your friends.

Over all I’d give halo 3 a 9/10 for the campaign and accessories such as the theater, forge, and armor customization.

Some pretty awesome stuff, this MMO just keeps looking better and better, literally, the Graphics are amazing.

Halo 3 Multiplayer

This is what gamers dream of. updating

Up coming games in 2007

Halo 3

The 3^rd game in Bungies Halo series, Halo 3, looks to be one of the best shooters coming out for the Xbox 360 this year. With a new brute vehicle, ATVs, fully customizable armor, some awesome maps, gear such as shield grenades, and many new weapons, Halo 3 multiplayer is sure to have you glued to your TV screen for weeks to come. If that wasn’t enough lets not forget the campaign. Halo has one of the best storylines I’ve seen in a FPS game and they have finally included online co-op, 4 player online co-op no less. So hold onto your Hats, helmets, halos, or any other head accessories and prepare to be blown away.

Mass Effect

This is the next Si Fi RPG coming from Bioware studios. I really do love a good story and Mass Effect promises just that. From punching out raving lunatics, saving humanity and bringing FPS to a single player RPG this game should be a real blast!

Call of Duty 4

Want a ridiculously large number of weapons to choose from? Amazing graphics? Killer game play, and awesome maps? Then CoD4 is the game for you. The Graphics are some of the best yet to be seen on the 360, and I just love the way bullets rip through thin walls etc. The Perks system is pretty interesting. ^_^

Assassin’s Creed

Well I’ve already reviewed this, so there’s not much to say. The graphics are great, the story is promising and anyone who likes climbing, tall cliffs, or acrobatics in general (in video games) will likely enjoy this game.

Tabula Rasa

I’ve been in the beta for TR for a while now and I must say its looking really good. I like how they have nearly no UI needed, in many MMOs I find my self staring at my skill bar or mini-map and not even looking at the game in TR you really get to enjoy the graphics more during normal play, speaking of which the graphics are top notch, and bound to get better as the game nears release.

All these games coming soon 2007.

Age of Empires 3

The latest Age of Empires game is by no means disappointing. Although similar to its predecessors, it has some significant differences. First, in AoE3 you have a home city that can send you supplies from overseas, you start out with a “deck” that has a fair number of “cards”. You can use these (usually only one time per card) to get supplies from your home city. Your home city can level up, and as it does so it allows you to get new and more powerful “cards”, which in turn, you use to gain resources, troops or upgrades from your home city. To start with, you can use all the cards you have in your “deck”, but once your home city reaches a higher level you will run out of room to use all the cards and you will need to find what best fits your play style. This of course has the most effect in multiplayer, where your “deck” will likely mean the difference between a win and a loss. Also, buildings, ships, walls etc, are destructible and will crumble as they’re attacked, but not the way other RTS games have done it. When a cannon ball hits a wall, boat, or building, part of it will be blown off where it hits. This makes navel battles extremely enjoyable. Previously we just got to watch ships fire at each other until one of them burst into flames and sank, or suddenly exploded, now we see the cannonballs ripping through the ship, with shrapnel, bits of wood and chunks of railing, flying everywhere. Also, now some ships can use the broadside ability to cause some major fireworks and deal significant damage to other ships. The next thing on our list that’s new about the game, is resources. In AoE3 your villagers no longer have to walk back to your town center or resource drop off point. The resources are simply added to what you already have as you gather them. The other change in this area is that you can no longer harvest stone, now you can only harvest wood, gold and food. Despite possibly being easier than the other Age of Empires games the computer AI can still kick my ass when set to max difficulty.

The single player campaign is great, and the multiplayer is sure to keep you occupied for hours after you’ve mastered single player.

Over all I’d give this game a 4 out of 5. My favorite part of the game is the navel combat and the great effects for buildings/ships etc being damaged or destroyed.

Assassin's Creed

Set in Jerusalem, 1191 AD during the 3rd crusade. In Assassins Creed you play as Altair, a “Master Assassin” who finds himself caught up in a conspiracy that threatens the entire world. What else do we know about it? Well the graphics kick ass, they look to be some of the best among the ‘next gen’ games and the combat appears to be very realistic and fast paced, no more surviving being stabbed in the chest half a dozen times. the game has a strong base in History, the people you will be assassinating are real historical figures who died in 1191. Also all of the cities in the game are accurately recreated cites from that period in time. The AI seems to be very good, NPCs will follow Altair through crowded streets and even leap across rooftops with surprising agility, also the way your targets will change course depending on where you are to best avoid you, and speed up when you draw near to them impressed me. too few games spend enough time on a really good AI. But what impressed me the most about this game is that you will be able to climb just about anything, and go anywhere, other games have claimed this before but Assassins Creed seems to have truly done it. This game is coming out November 07, I know what I’m getting for Christmas!

Fable

Though Fable came out quite some time ago, its still a really fun game.

The concept of raising your hero from the time he was a child well into his old age, choosing between good and evil, And having people react differently to you based on that, was a brilliant idea. The replay value is high because there are so many ways to play the game, you can be good, or evil, or somewhere in-between. You can also play an archer, warrior, or magic user, but you can mix them freely and it is possible to max every skill. If that’s not enough for you, there’s still many things you can do even after you beat the game, from owning every building in the game to marrying the “lady gray” and becoming the mayor of Bowerstone. I bought it the day it came out and have beaten it a few times and I still have fun playing it, if you like RPGs and don’t have this game, get it you won’t be sorry.

Woot?

Yah, okay well that's my intro.
