Well, generally speaking if you buy a sequel to a game, it's because you like the ones before it. If you play Assassin's Creed because you like it, you don't want a sequel being like Mortal Kombat..... Yes, but I would also expect a lot of improvements for a game that's a reboot/sequel to a series that hasn't had a game come out since 1999. |

I haven't played them. I'm just trying to figure out why all of your positives basically revolved around "It's just like the old games." Because the old games were "cool" and even i played it(not trying to say this means something big). Man the old games are "cool" in a way even in these days. Yes the story is a cliché. but the feel when you play it just idunno makes the game like your fav games in one. Do you want to try the old games? I can give you links to them if you want. Sure I'll give them a try I guess... |

I like games to stay the same, but I also like them when they try and change their roots......so, I'm not helping either of you out. I think you're both correct, lol. |

Do you use Windows Mac or Linux? Windows. You extract every file to a folder. then you pull the .iso.ecm file into the unecm file then wait for it to finish. After this you open the Ken ePSXe file, configure your button layout. If there's anything me or the the emulator didn't said, then ask it. |

Finished up AvP's singleplayer, and since there's absolutely no one on its multiplayer, I'll just go ahead and review it.
The Marine section is, as one would probably expect, nothing different from your usual FPS. Audio Logs, companions dropping like flies, horrible boss fights, nothing special. Don't get me wrong, it's fun, but it's identical to pretty much every other FPS ever. Oh and, uh, by the way, if you like fighting bottom-of-the-line barebones basic Xenomorphs and bullet sponge-y as all heck androids and ONLY those, then man, this is the game for you. Enemy variety was clearly not a focus here. At the very least, they could've tried to figure out some other Xenomorph breeds or something.
The Predator section is difficult, and generally not how you'd expect. Your camouflage never lasts longer than two seconds, and even if you do manage to use it effectively and get behind your prey, they will suddenly gain supersonic hearing and promptly turn around and unload an unnaturally well-aimed clip into your face. So, of course, this means that classic Arkham-style picking the enemy off one-by-one isn't an option. So, what do you do then? Use your ranged weapons? They drain your shields, which you'll inevitably need when a military grunt on the other side of the planet hears you breathing. The only thing I found that worked was just bunching them all together, then just going ape on them in melee, hoping I go fast enough that they'll only cause incredible injuries with their gunshots. Basically, in other words, no stealth for Predators, even though that's the BASE of the Predator. :rolleyes: Still, the "finishers" are fairly cool, the parkour-like stuff you do is fun, and sometimes it's fun to just slice up whoever's troubling you.
The Alien playthrough is oddly enough, 100% stealth. If you even think of direct combat, you're doing it wrong. However, unlike the Predator, (s)he's actually capable of stealth, in a really odd fashion. His/her gameplay focuses on destroying lights, hiding in the shadows, and eating people's faces. Apparently, the darkenss made by the lack of lights is blinding to the Marines no matter what, because they've looked directly at me, with their flashlights, and didn't notice me. I couldn't help but question why the Predator can't sneak for crap, but the Alien's practically invisible. I dunno, I've never watched the Alien movies, but I thought their strength was their high numbers, and the Predators were the stealthy ones. If you ignore the lore screw-ups, though, the Alien playthrough is the most fun, and feels the most fair. The simple joy of cutting down Marine squadrons one by one is a joy that can be repeated many times and not lose its fun, even if it should be the Predators' thing.
So, yeah, it's one of those games that's tons of fun if you can put up with its weaker parts. 7/10
P.S. That Pulse Rifle sound never gets old.

Hello this is my review of Strider 2014 (The full game) (Platforms: Pc/Xb360/Xbone/PS3/PS4 please note that this is a review of the X360's game (but the game is the same on every console)) {Story}
It's the same one that was in Strider 2 Grand Master (Sexay) Meio (let's call him Mayo) so Mayo has taken over the world and the only one who can save the world is your character Strider Hiryu (or any of the fallen Striders including Hien) You have to fight your way to Mayo and kill him. I try to not spoil anything about the story so the only thing i can say is that nearly every boss is in this game from Strider 2. -Cliché storyline. (but at least it works) +Grand Master Mayo kills an annoying enemy. +Epic ending. 7/10 {Difficulty}
The game is very difficult (i played it on easy because its very hard on easy too) on the first try (or in any if you're like me) you'll die a lot
i can almost guarantee.
+(?)Challenging difficulty
-Trying to make the game difficult with 3000 enemies shooting at you from every direction.
+Good boss difficulty
-Freezing guns/laser cannons everywhere.
+Easily defeated opponents if you got the right Cypher but still holding difficulty up
7/10
{Bosses (may include (and probably will include) spoiler)}
-Too many recycled bosses.
+Every boss has a description (only their name and rank).
+Every boss has very well built ai.
+Grand Master Sexay Mayo has some good moves
(Spoiler Alert don't read this if you don't want any spoilers)+Mayo Prime (Grand Master Sexay Mayo's second/true form.) is very challenging
8.5/10
{Visuals}
+Good graphics -A little bit cartoony <+but still looks gorgeous 7/10 {Sounds}
+Well composed music
-Sometimes repetitive "Hiya!" sound
+(In my opinion) Good voiceovers
7/10 {Level Design}
+Good level design
+Good boss level design
+Good final stage design
10/10 {Ending (includes spoilers)}
After you defeated The Poo(h) sisters The Millipede, Solo, And the freaking dragon from the first stage (you beat every (who isn't the Pooh sisters) boss two times) you go to kill Grand Master Sexay Mayo, but you'll have to beat Mayo's tower first. (And Mayo's tower is freaking hard. That's where i was stuck for two months.) Once you died a hundred-thousand times, and finally beat Mayo's tower you have to beat Grand Master Sexay Mayo(note. it's not going to be easy. I recommend you using te Flaming/Explosive Chyper.) and once you beat Grand Master Sexay Mayo you have to face Mayo Prime. And if you beat Mayo prime too you get an epic ending cutscene.
+You'll feel that your money and time worth it
10/10 I give this game a 8.5/10 if you liked the old games or just want to play a good and challenging game buy it. Also please rate this review in PM because i care about what do you think about my reviews.(And sorry for the Yoda talk in the end) |

My Review of AC IV, even though I actually played it several months ago:
Personally, my favorite Assassin's Creed in years. It actually feels different from the others, and at times I forgot I was even playing an AC game.
Hopefully ACV will live up to ACIV.

In my opinion that hardly makes sense... |

In my opinion that hardly makes sense... I would hope it focuses on one of the major civil wars from the late 1700-1800s. Neither does the AC series. It can make sense, but not a very interesting sense. |

I like the AC series, in terms of the metaplot. It doesn't make any less sense than any other science-fiction game out there

I can't really get into the original AC (still have yet to play any others except BH, which wasn't bad, but I only played for a few minutes. That being said, the story confused the hell out of me......but it also didn't help that my brothers were playing AC when I wasn't and wouldn't stop playing on my profile, so I was missing half of the story anyways. May be what ruined that game for me (other than the repetitiveness).

You must love Christopher Nolan movies. "The plot made all kinds of sense when I didn't know what was going on!" |
