White Knight Chronicles II (PS3)

So after a few weeks of play, a few distractions, and many hours spent online – I have finally finished the story mode of White Knight Chronicles II – the sequel to Level 5′s rather underrated Japanese RPG White Knight Chronicles. An 8-hour review for WKC2 can be found here: http://www.tgr-net.com/2011/09/8-hour-review-white-knight-chronicles-ii/ if anyone wants to see my initial thoughts. The game does include a full version of White Knight Chronicles as well, so if you’ve missed the first, you don’t have to shell out extra.

Which means that at the very least there will be written impressions of the beta, the game, and other things.

It is a terrible game – but the thing is… sometimes bad games are fun. And this is one of those cases… the story is poorly written, the gameplay is largely derivative, the enemies are moderately creative at best, the characters are shallow… but the fact that your experience is measured in gallons of blood that you’ve spilt pretty much says it all.

Gears of War 3 (XBox 360)

It’s time for a review on the XBox 360! Yes, what may be the biggest xbox 360 exclusive of the year – and possibly one of the most anticipated 360 exclusives ever – has finally come out this week: Gears of War 3. Unfortunately, I missed out on the first two, so I’m a bit out of the loop on the past goings on with this series, so that’s the perspective this review is coming from. [Read more...]
