The Godfather Game Review - PS2
Right from the beginning of this game you know you are playing something special. The attention to detail of 1940's New York is amazing. Litter blows around the streets, steam comes up from the sewers and pigeons wander around parks. In the distance from your home in Little Italy you can see the towering empire state building.
The object of the game is to rise through the ranks of the corleone family until you eventually become the Don. The game is made up of both linear and non-linear storylines. At anytime you can follow the storyline or simply go off and grow your crime business.
The main currency in the Godfather is respect. You earn this by completing missions and by taking over businesses and rackets. You have to tread carefully though as there are other gangster families who will not take kindly to you moving in on their turf. Push them too far and you will start a vendetta resulting in gang warfare.
Throughout the main storyline you will encounter various characters from the film including the Don himself. Some of your missions will cross over in to events that happened in the film. This element really makes you fill part of the bigger picture.
The style of gangster you play can be fully customised right down to looks and clothing. As you gain respect levels you can spend points in upgrading a number of skills such as fighting or shooting. The side missions are varied and you can more or less pick where you want to go. Stuck for cash? Get a stick of dynamite and rob the local bank. If you take this job be carefull as you will have cops all over you from the moment you leave the bank.
To get around town you can use vehicles such as your own car or if you wish hijack someone elses.
A warning for parents, this game is very much aimed at adults which is why it carries an 18 certificate.
All in all I think whoever plays this game will not be disappointed. It offers something for both fans of the films and those new to the genre.

Futurama Playstation 2 (PS2) Game Review
Based on the TV series, the Futurama video game has all your favorite characters, Bender, Fry, Lela, Professor Zoidberg and more, with voice overs from the original cast.
Gameplay:
The game starts out in the hangar at Planet Express as you play as Fry, on the look out for missing tools for Professor Zoidberg. Search the hangar, offices, corridors, avoiding electrical wires, perform some platform jumping, collecting cash and filling up on extra health from the "Slurm" vending machines, and find the hidden key card to unlock doors. Fry starts out with a hammer on this level, but works up to some cooler, more powerful guns throughout the game.
Head underground into the Sewers, where as Fry you have to kill mutants, underwater snakes with one eye, and pipe tentacles with your laser gun and avoid the deadly sewer canals whilst jumping over crates to cross to other areas. Shoot crates for cash and ammo.
Go through the Mine Facility as Bender, defending yourself against robots with his twirl attack, sliding lunge, collecting power-up crystals and avoiding the heat blades on the conveyor belt. In Run Bender Run, head into the mine shaft and run for your life to avoid a giant boulder coming up behind you, whilst jumping over caverns, collecting your crystals, and dodging barrels.
Or as "one-eyed" Leela in Market Square, you get to fight with your punch and kick attacks against skeletons, avoid the crazy bombers which will try and blow you up, solve codes in the puzzle rooms, by stepping on the correct tiled squares in sequence on the floor. Collect gold bars by destroying objects.
There are plenty more levels to explore, and when you reach the last level in Fry Fight's Back, you battle against the "Destructor", the big boss robot with his one arm missile launcher. Before you meet Destructor, you have to search through various corridors for the last lot of keycards. Dodge some spinning blades and gas vents, hide in the crevices as you dodge a couple of huge laser machine guns, destroy some half-bodied robots and work out some numbered codes to unlock your master laser weapon. You then meet the Destructor for the final showdown. He shoots missiles, lasers and then stands still while his stomach opens and you are attacked by flies. Avoid his firepower and get him in the belly where it hurts enough times and "yay", you've saved the planet and get to watch the final movie scene.
All up the game has 21 levels, there are heaps of items to collect throughout, find switches and credit cards to unlock doors, solve an array of puzzles, but more importantly, destroy the bad guys! Each character has their own weapon/attacks/health power-ups and you get to travel through some other amazing levels, from Red Rock Creek, Old New York, the Junkyard, Temple Courtyard, Red Light District and more. Other baddies include rock monsters, swordsmen, weasels, lava monsters, evil cactus, and sentry's to name a few. There's also plenty of slick Futurama-style humor to keep you laughing.
Extras: If you collect all nibblers (creatures in cages) in each level you also get to unlock movies, music and characters. There's a total of 20 minutes worth of unlocked movie footage never seen. You can also switch from first to third person view anytime during the game, and there are cameras for viewing other areas in each level.
Summary:
Number of Players: 1
Graphics:
Animated and resembles same as in the TV show. Good colour, with darker areas that set the scene.
Controls:
The controls are okay, but the side view movement can be a bit tight during the game when turning around.
Fun-factor:
9/10 - Overall, really enjoyed this game and there's a good variety of action and puzzle solving to get through. I would recommend this video game for kids and adults if you enjoy the Futurama TV show, as you'll definitely get some value out of it.

Copying PS2 Video Games
How many PS2 users have had their video games damaged by wear and tear? Everyone who owns a video game console that takes CD and DVDs knows the feeling of not being able to use a game due to scratches. However, copying your PS2 video games is an excellent way to protect your collection and enjoy your games for years to come.
If you're looking to play copied PS2 video games, there is a lot of technology that can allow your console to read a DVD or even CD copy. The key is to put in a mod chip to play these video games. This mod chip works to allow copied CDs that were not originally coded to work on a PS2 console to boot without problems. Without these mod chips, the system would automatically reject any copied CD.
Installing and using a mod chip can put a lot of pressure on your PS2 game system. Many mod chips can even eventually wear down your laser and result in the need to buy a new one. Mod chips should only be installed by trained professionals, as it is never advisable to open up your own PS2 console without special training. Make sure to use only the best technology, as a cheap mod chip can ruin your PS2 console.
Creating the right copy of your PS2 video games also requires a special program for your computer. HD Loader is one of the most popular systems for copying and storing your PS2 games on your hard drive. This allows you to create a back up disc or keep the information there for safe-keeping. HD Loader allows you to catalog boot and load your games faster, and reduce the wear and tear on your PS2's laser. Games like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas that read from the disc most of the time during play will wear out your system, so HD Loader offers many advantages to archiving games that you legally own. With HD Loader you don't need a mod chip or special equipment, but you'll need the PS2 Network Adapter, a Playstation 1 game, and an IDE hard drive (Maxtor ones work the best, usually) for continued use, as well as an Action Replay Max to get the hard drive software on the memory card the first time.
Many PS2 users who want to protect their original video game use this technology to back up a disc, or use HD Loader to boot their games faster and keep their laser from being overused. However, users should be careful to not break copyright laws, since buying or downloading a pirated PS2 video game is against the law. It is also against the law in many countries to bypass any copyright technology that is installed in a PS2 video game, so make sure you check into local laws before going ahead with this kind of project.
This technology helps users restore video games that have been damaged by wear and tear and continue enjoying their PS2 experience. Protect your games and continue to enjoy the best video games in the world for years to come. Back up your collection of PS2 games today using a mod chip and special software on your PC.

Final Fantasy Characters
A good story is nothing without a good lead, and the Final Fantasy series has always been known for the diversity of its lead characters through the years. Here we will detail all the leading characters from Final Fantasy VII - XII. Cloud Strife Cloud Strife made his debut in the acclaimed Final Fantasy VII. His most noticeable features are his chocobo-inspired spiky hair, and his famous Buster Sword, a giant sword almost as large as he is! Cloud has become a staple character for Square Enix, and has appeared in FFVII, FF Tactics, Advent Children, Dirge of Cerberus, the Kingdom Hearts game, and Itadaki Street Special. Squall Leonhart Squall Leonhart is the lead protagonist in Final Fantasy VIII. The series took a major shift into a more realistic visual style, and this showed heavily in Squall, who had a very natural dress sense and an appearance which is alleged to be inspired by Gackt. Although older Final Fantasy fans has often criticise Squall's character for being too angsty and emotion, he has become a popular favourite, and made numerous appearances in the Kingdom Hearts games. Zidane Tribal When Final Fantasy IX revisited the more traditional roots of the series, so did its lead character. Zidane Tribal turned out to be a much more upbeat and energetic character than either Squall or Cloud, which never hindered him! Although not as popular as some of the other leads, he has appeared in Itadaki Street Portable, and appears to be on the front of the cast leading the upcoming Dissida -Final Fantasy- Tidus Tidus was the main characters in Final Fantasy X. His design was centred on that of a footballer, which was also emphasised by the game's popular sport, Blitzball, which was essentially football underwater. His hyperactive and emotional character would see him loved and hated by fans in equal measure. He made a brief appearance in the first Kingdom Hearts game, and also appears in Itadaki Street Special. Vaan Although the story of Final Fantasy XII is not directly centred on Vaan, it is told from his point of view. Vaan would turn out be more unique from past characters in that his story is developed and his character matures more quickly and more profoundly than past leads, and this maturity also helps develop some of the other characters in the game. His appeared in Itadaki Street Portable, is set to appear in the upcoming DS bounded sequel FFXII: Revenant Wings, and will also make a brief appearance in FF Tactics A2.

Final Fantasy For PSP
This article outlines the different Final Fantasy games available for the PSP and a great source to where you can get them. The PSP has become a great source for Final Fantasy games which means you're never to far from your favorite series.
The first of the series is a remake of Final Fantasy 1, called Final Fantasy Anniversary Edition. This is really aimed at people who haven't played the original and want to delve into Final Fantasy's history. The graphics are very nice and the random battle system is ever present but bearing mind the original is 20 years old, you might find a few elements are missing. It's still worth a look though as there is an added dungeon which will prove quite a challenge for even the most seasoned players.
The next FF game quite logically is Final Fantasy 2 Anniversary Edition. Graphically, this is even better than the first one. There have been some nice additions to the system and you will find more opportunities for combat as the random battles come thick and fast. A big selling point for the game is the story is more involved and interesting than the first installment which is an important factor for many fans. There is also plenty to keep you busy as you can get about 40 or more hours of game play.
As a side note, these two are officially released on most countries yet but I will tell you later how you can get them.
The latest and greatest of the FF game to be officially released for the PSP is Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions. This for me was the first game I played within the Tactics series, I'd avoided them before as I thought it would just be fighting without any story...I wrong I was! The first thing that struck me with this game was the graphics and the camera angle. For anybody who loved the look and feel of Final Fantasy 7 are going to love this.
In my opinion, some of the more recent Final Fantasy games have been too simplified and have lost some of the appeal, this game however, will remind you what go you into the series in the first place. There is a great class and job system which really gives depth to your characters, there's an almost infinite number of combinations you can create.
Something that is not to the series with this game is the cut scenes which have taken on a more cartoon like feel, this ads a new dimension to the game which makes it much more than a remake.
There are more Final Fantasy games for PSP in the pipeline, the first to look out for is Crisis Core which is an offshoot and prequel to Final Fantasy 7. This has been in the pipeline for nearly 4 years and promises great game play and soundtrack. Also on the horizon is Dissidia: Final Fantasy. This sounds very interesting as it will actually incorporate various characters you would have met through the entire Final Fantasy series.

For quite a while now, Final Fantasy has been considered as one of the best RPG games there is and the series is living up to that with the newest version which is Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions. Plus, it would be a vindication for the PSP as it has had games in the past that have the same non-realistic design, and it looks like FF Tactics is going to be an exception.
Not forgetting to mention that for this game, you'll be able to play two new character jobs: the Onion Knight and the Dark Knight. With the Onion Knight, you will be able to add to your strength while also compromising some of your other abilities. Meanwhile the Dark Knight will enable you to strike at your enemies and take magic points from them to increase your own. The second one is the Dark Knight, which permits you to whack your opponents; but if that isn't enough, you can always steal magic points to add up to your own and it will surely be an asset to your game.
As for the intricate plot line in Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions, it has raised the experience to a whole new arena, and everything else will go smoothly. Those other jobs included in the game are quite a challenge, taking you through various levels of gameplay and a staggering 60 battle maps to complete.
Final Fantasy Tactics is any RPG fan's fantasy come true. To add more thrill to your gaming, you'll have more character jobs which will take you various of levels to master; but in the end, it should pay off knowing that you have 60 battle maps to explore. Aside from the two mentioned above, you'd have more character jobs available in FF Tactics.
And if you have played previous games from the series before, you might recognize some of the characters that will be appearing in War of the Lions. You might recognize some of the characters in this game as some of them are returning for War of the Lions, such as Balthier from Final Fantasy XII and Luso from FF Tactics A2: The Sealed Grimoire.
The latest off of the Final Fantasy series takes RPG gaming beyond anything fans have expected from the popular classic. And although there were few who were saddened by the fact that this game is more of an expansion rather than a remake in itself, that is not entirely considered a flaw. This makes things even more interesting as it has taken its leap from the basic premises of the game and infusing more flavor to it. If it's from Final Fantasy, you can be sure that it won't disappoint!
When it comes to the technical aspect of the game, role-playing has never been this exciting. And though you might experience longer loading times at some points in the game, it's not something to bother you at all. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional characters are sweet reminders of what there is to love about this game, and everything has just gotten better as the game turns portable. Plus, the action sequence and level of intensity just would not let up since the moment you draw that sword!
Also as a bonus feature, you can view mini-clips of important events during the game, making it possible for you to view when and how it all happened. The mini-clips were amazing, and because it was done by Akihiko Yoshida leaves nothing more to be said.
Because you can view some of the important events in this game - like the kidnapping of the princess, the memory of Ramza, Delita's reed whistle and destructive explosion of Fprt Zeakenden - you have the luxury of setting them up however you want to play it, so that the actual game can be even more exciting. And because this game is too exciting to be played alone, now you get to share some gaming time with your friend. So you can tag your friends along to join you in your battle, or compete against them to see which one will prevail in the Final Fantasy world!

PSP Game Downloads Hot Tips
PSP game downloads have swept across the PlayStation community like a storm in the past couple of years. Sony Playstation portable units have been faithful companions to so many kids and teenagers of today. In terms of popularity, it is almost synonymous to games, just like music is to iPod. But before you start to download games for your PSP unit, there are some things you need to know about playing those PSP game downloads.
Our computers run on an operating system, ie Windows or Mac. Unlike PCs, our PSP units run on PSP firmware. This is the core operating system of the PSP that gives your PSP the ability to play games, video and audio. The firmware is installed in the flash disk of your console. Sony would occasionally release new versions of firmware to add more functionally to your console or to troubleshoot some bugs that are inherent in older versions.
However, you may not be aware that only the older versions of PSP firmware such as version 1.00 and 1.50 can allow you to play PSP game downloads. How do you check out your PSP’s firmware version? Simply take a look at the system software information in the system settings menu. Newer versions come with firmware versions higher than 2.00. If you just bought a new PSP, then there is no need to check if it supports the PSP game downloads.
This feature is a security-protection feature to prevent any user from running unauthorized software on their PSPs. While it does have its merits in expanding the functionality of your PSP, it can be crippling if you plan to play some older console games such as Nintendo, Game Boy Advance, Sega Genesis games or PSP game downloads. You may not be aware also that Sony only allows you to upgrade your firmware to higher versions. You cannot reverse the process once you upgraded your PSP. This inability sounds more like a double-edged sword to a lot of people.
Some software designers have been working hard behind the scenes for years before they came up with ingenious ways to overcome this problem. The solution is in the form of PSP emulators. PSP emulators are software that can read and run game programs that operate on a different architecture, ie console unit such as Nintendo. There are so many emulators out there, free or paid version that can easily "convert" your PSP to play any kind of console game and PSP game downloads, new and old, proprietary or non-proprietary.
Did you know that there are now many PSP game downloads sites that offer you lifetime access to their huge vaults of PSP games, music, movies, software, etc? Learn more from my blog on how you can join the millions of online users who are downloading PSP games right at this moment as you read this article, without having to spend more than the cost of a pizza meal for the family.

God Of War Chains Of Olympus Reviews
The God of War titles have always been action packed and this one is no different, with intense and gory combat in God of War Chains of Olympus it makes it an excellent adventure just like the previous games. this might be because Kratos' moves appear to be identical to what you'll find in God of War 2. Furthermore, combat is extremely responsive, perfectly mimicking the console versions. This brought back the feeling of previous God of War games and as soon as i got the feeling back i found myself using my favorite combos from the previous games and the best part was the moves performed just like i remembered them.
Not many PSP games can match Chains of Olympus from a visual standpoint, either technically or artistically. Simply maintaining a solid frame rate is impressive enough when you've got a lot characters fighting on-screen at the same time, but when you also have lighting and particle effects, moving backgrounds, and lots of blood, it's even more impressive. The cut scenes alternate between prerendered full-motion video, in-game engine, and concept art brought to life by a bit of animation and camera movement. I found all three to be great.
Just like in the original God of War and its sequel, there's a fair bit of bonus content here. The Challenge of Hades replaces the Challenge of the Gods, but works identically, and there are a number of unlockables for use if you can manage to finish it.
God of War Chains of Olympus is a stellar achievement on the PSP. It fits perfectly into the franchise's storyline and offers up the same level of intense action as its console counterparts. It's also the best looking title on the psp system, without question. Engaging from start to finish, Chains of Olympus is a mandatory purchase for anyone who owns a PSP and doesn't mind getting a little blood on their hands.
So if you like what you have seen and would like to get it for yourself theres a link below where you can find the game and I would also like to mention that there is PSP pack that's red and comes with the God of War Chains of Olympus game, you can also find this if you follow my link below it will take you to my blog that will provide you with both links.

Best PlayStation 3 Games For Christmas
This holiday season will bring some exciting new titles for gamers. The hardest part is deciding what new games to ask for. So what are the best PlayStation 3 Games for Christmas? Read on to find out. There's something for everyone in this season's line-up. If you go for racing, you'll love "Motorstorm: Pacific Rift". Using every possible vehicle from monster trucks, to motorcycles, to quads, and more, racing is on in mud, through trees, around lava, and well, you get the idea. Lots of different tracks and terrain promise high interest whether in single player or multi-player mode.
For total involvement in the first person, "Mirror's Edge" is the best of the season. You have to deliver courier packages to certain destinations, all the while trying to navigate dangerous environments. Every action is done in the first person, not you tailing behind your character with the controller. It's so vivid that you feel like you are doing the running, rolling, and climbing.
For family fun, try "LittleBigPlanet". The object of the game is for you and up to three friends, to try to manipulate the world in an attempt to get across it using level creation tools. The beauty of this unique game is that it allows gamers to try their hand at game creation. It promises to be a big part of the PS3 line-up in the future.
Finally for those who love scary games, there's "Dead Space". It's already being talked about as one of the scariest, skin-crawling survival horror games of all-time. Shoot the limbs off alien monsters before they mutate into something even more sinister, as you explore space.
This is only a few of the best PlayStation 3 games for Christmas. There are some amazing sequels and lots more first person games to immerse yourself in too.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 - PS2 Review
I have played an awfull lot of Starwars games over the years right back to the early days of the wireframed arcade game. Battlefront 2 has brought back to me some of that early fast paced arcade excitement.
As a youngster I also enjoyed the toys so being able to jump into multiple starwars vehicles and ships is just brilliant. I never played the original Battlefront but can see why it was so popular.
The game has a lot of content and is based across the starwars universe at different times. You can play during the clone wars as well as the later period. What makes the game particularily appealing is the use of special hero characters.
Battlefront 2 has been given more emphasis towards the single player as well keeping its multiplayer roots. Both work well and the AI of the bots in a single player game is quite good. There are three distinct game types you can play. A training game set during the clone wars, a galaxy conquest game and the instant action games.
New to Battlefront 2 is the ability to wage war in space. This is very exciting as yout one sided though as the enemy can do exactly the same to you.
The more competent at combat you become then the more strategies you discover. You start to use the landscape, weapons and vehicles around you. Taking control of a lumbering AT-AT and blowing that rebel scum to pieces is just sheer fun. The AT-AT are a unique unit in this game as they act as a mobile base capabllowing that rebel scum to pieces is just sheer fun. The AT-AT are a unique unit in this game as they act as a mobile base capable of spawning troops.
I do have some grumbles though and one or them is certain missing vehicles. The Millenium Falcon and B-Wing do not appear to be flyable vehicles in this game. I would have also liked to have seen bigger Star Destroyer, Rebel Cruiser interiors as these massive ships only have a limited area in which to fight and explore. If there is ever a Battlefront 3 then maybe some of these elements would be considered.
All in all this game is well rounded and entertaining and it should keep me occupied for sometime to come.

Guitar Hero 3 - Legends of Rock Review
If you liked the previous Guitar Hero games, then you should like this one. Because it is the exact same!
Gameplay: I'll just start with what Guitar Hero is about, for those of you who do not know. Basically you use a plastic guitar with a flicky thing (?) where you strum and 5 coloured buttons for the 'fret board'. You basically hold down the coloured buttons on the guitar to match the coloured 'gems' that are coming down the screen. When the 'gems' come down to the line at the bottom of the screen, you 'strum' the flicky thing and it plays the 'note'. You continue to do this for each series of gems until the end of the song. The gameplay for this has been the same over 4 games! I'm not kidding. The only thing that is different among the games is the playlist and the multiplayer which only changed on this game.
Difficulty: There are 4 difficulties. Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert. Easy is really slow and you only use the first 3 coloured buttons. Medium is a little faster and uses 4 buttons. Hard is faster and uses all 5 buttons. Expert is really fast and uses all 5 buttons. There's only one problem with this. The jump from Medium to Hard might be a bit much at first but you will get used to it. I don't know about Expert because I've only been able to do 2 songs on Expert.
Graphics: The graphics are alright, I guess. It just doesn't really matter since you're looking at the 'fret board' on the screen the entire time.
Sound: The playlist in this game is just awesome! In the previous games there was probably only one song I have heard before. In this one I've heard of most of the songs. The sound that comes out when you play are the actual recordings of the song so no remixs. Thank god!
Content: I'll just describe what is in the game. There are 42 songs and about 20 songs you buy in the in-game store. You start off with 8 characters (I think) and you unlock a further 4 including a robot. How awesome! There are a countless number of unlockable guitars including a Guitar Hero controller. There's a lot of content in this game but since this is the PS2 version there's no online store for more songs.
Final Note: Buy this game if you don't own the originals. If you do, try renting.

The jump from Medium to Hard might be a bit much at first but you will get used to it. I don't know about Expert because I've only been able to do 2 songs on Expert.
Graphics: The graphics are alright, I guess. It just doesn't really matter since you're looking at the 'fret board' on the screen the entire time.
Sound: The playlist in this game is just awesome! In the previous games there was probably only one song I have heard before. In this one I've heard of most of the songs. The sound that comes out when you play are the actual recordings of the song so no remixs. Thank god!
Content: I'll just describe what is in the game. There are 42 songs and about 20 songs you buy in the in-game store. You start off with 8 characters (I think) and you unlock a further 4 including a robot. How awesome! There are a countless number of unlockable guitars including a Guitar Hero controller. There's a lot of content in this game but since this is the PS2 version there's no online store for more songs.
Final Note: Buy this game if you don't own the originals. If you do, try renting.

Guitar Hero Review (PS2)
Guitar Hero is a fun music based game for the PS2. The developer of Guitar Hero, Harmonix, had previously created Amplitude and before that Frequency. All three of these games are music based games where you have to strum or button your way through a song. Frequency was the first, and in my opinion (and that of my friends) better than the sequel Amplitude. While Amplitude had a much better shared multiplayer view, the songs weren't as good and the sense of actually playing the music was much decreased in Amplitude. So when the guys come over to play games at my place, we usually plop in Frequency and not Amplitude.
Guitar Hero carries on the tradition, and I think is an improvement over Amplitude. It actually includes a guitar controller, which is a half-size plastic guitar with five coloured buttons on the neck. You "strum" a two inch long lever, and the guitar even includes a bendy bar. But you don't have to use this peripheral if you don't want to. Using the controller feels very much like Frequency or Amplitude, except that you sometimes have to hold down the notes over time, which wasn't a feature in the previous games.
But the guitar peripheral makes it so much more fun, you'll want to use it. The joystick ability really only comes in handy when you play in two-player mode against a friend and can't afford to buy a second guitar.
But how do you actually play a song? Easy to learn, difficult to master. The coloured buttons on the neck correspond to coloured dots on the moving score of the song. The score actually approaches you, and as coloured dots approach and cross a line right in front of you, you have to have the correct coloured button held down as you strum the guitar. Then the note will change to a different one, so you have to change your fingering before your next strum. It is easier than it sounds. Check the IGN website for Guitar Hero videos.
How is it? Fun fun FUN! This is one great game with great songs, and great multiplayer action. I've only played it multiplayer with a controller, but getting a second guitar in there would be even more of a blast. I had my friends over to play this game and they all raved about it. If you like listening to music and have a PS2, then you owe it to yourself to at least try this game.
Problems? Yes, a few. My biggest complaint (though not that big in absolute terms - this is a great game) is that the mapping of music tracks to game tracks isn't as fun as many of the tracks in Frequency and Amplitude were. In those game you'd really get into a groove and really enjoy how the tracks were arranged by the developers. Guitar Hero doesn't have quite the same creativity when it came to laying down the tracks. As well, the game ramps up in difficulty way too fast. The hardest setting is clearly impossible for everyone without a genetically enhanced metabolism. (This was also a problem with Frequency and Amplitude.)
But don't let those things distract you from what is otherwise a very fun game. And if you don't want to splurge on the full price right away, you might want to try Frequency. It's an older game so is now in many bargain bins. It's a true gem, and you can try out this style of gameplay for less than $10.

Tekken Skill Stop Slot Machine Critical Overview
If you don't remember the Tekken fighting video games the last fourteen years, then you missed out on tons of fun at a younger age. The 1990s brought us great fighting action with characters like Bryan Fury, Armor King, Asuka Kazama, Lei Wulong and several others to give you years of entertainment. So my best friend and I came across the Tekken Skill Stop Slot Machine it was definitely one of the Best Slot Machines.
For the past ten years we've been roomies dating all the way back to our first year in college and were fascinated at how to Win at Slot Machines. What can we say, we're video game geeks and just love the storylines that come with them. Listen, some people enjoy Grey's Anatomy or Heroes, and we enjoy stories and Casino Slot Machines. It's hard to believe the first one came out back in 1994, the year we graduated high school. Probably harder to believe we both still like everything about it.
The Tekken Skill Stop Slot Machine is just one of a long list of assets we've purchased with the Tekken name on it. Action figures, posters, clothes, the games of course, and even cool sun glasses back in the day are all still down in our basement as we're writing this letter. So obviously the new addition to our collection came as a surprise considering we'd never originally heard that there was even one produced.
While just showing it off like a piece of art was originally our plan, once we played it a few times we couldn't get enough. Granted it's not like the video game or anything, but the competitive nature and reminiscing about old times comes back instantly when we start playing the Tekken Skill Stop Slot Machine. Heck, we even argue who was better, but everyone knew I was in a league of my own. Although he would beg to differ.
We did feel it had its pros and cons, but nothing that would really hinder our decision on whether or not to purchase it. On a personal note we love the pull lever slot machines, but this one is simply buttons which trigger the machine. Plus, it's not a video system with graphical cartoons in the middle, but we aren't complaining because it's a hit with everyone that comes over. Even though no one has one the jackpot yet.
In the end there is a lot of different things you can do with the Tekken Skill Stop Slot Machine besides playing unlimited Free Slot Machines Games. Since you're given a key and manual you can turn up or down the difficulty levels for payouts. So if you have a little get together one week, the chances can change from week to week. The point is you can keep a lot of variety going so the entertainment doesn't get stale. Definitely a positive aspect to owning your own slot machine.
So if you're looking for something to add a little pizazz to your fun room, this is it. Then again, you probably already know that considering you're reading this right? We thought so. Now we want to just pass all our enjoyment onto you.

Tekken 6 Release
The release date of Tekken 5: The Dark Resurrection was the same with both arcade and with home console. However, in Tekken 6, the arcade version was released last November 26, 2007. How about the PS 3 game?
It is said that the release of Tekken 6 will arrive a few months after the release of Soulcalibur 4, which is supposedly about to go live next month. But are we sure about that? Tekken 6 release date has been moved from the 3rd quarter of 2007 to the 4th quarter of 2007 to now, the summer of 2008. This change of Tekken 6 release has been driving us insane. Are the guys at Namco Bandai doing this to toy with our minds? We were expecting some news on it last April when it was Namco Bandai's Gamers' Days but to no avail, they only talked about Soulcalibur 4 and the Xbox Live version of Soulcalibur. Yes we are already reassured on Soulcalibur's arrival, let's talk about Tekken 6 please.
While waiting, Tekken 6 will be included in this July's E3 Entertainment Expo, which will happen in Los Angeles, California. Hopefully between those dates the actual Tekken 6 date release will be changed from the infamous TBA to let's say September 2008, as was previously released by Fighter's Generation. (Cross your fingers, toes, arms and legs.)
All this uproar in waiting for the new game to arrive for home console is due to its tight features and fluid moves, respectfully retained from Tekken 3 onwards. One of the new features is the rage system that packs more power into your punches or hits as your vitality hits that red hue. There are also the funny item moves that the people at Namco Bandai have placed just to make us laugh. Some haters of the arcade game go as far as actually saying that these item moves are very noob friendly but to actually play the arcade game you will see that these item moves' damage are not that high. Also, this installment gives a longer health bar so these funny antics that the makers of Tekken 6 arcade made are really well compensated for. These new features, coupled with the 4 new characters are some of the reasons for the clamor in wanting a home version, as playing in the arcade san sometimes be costly and during peak-hours, it really is quite hard to find an empty Tekken 6 game. Also, for the home version, the multi-player online version of it is no longer an ad on (for Tekken 5, it required an additional $10 for that option) which makes one salivate even more
After July of 2008, when Soulcalibur 4 has already been released in the market, the people at Namco Bandai will no longer have any excuse in making us wait any longer. However, on the bright side, they may be putting off the release as developers are adding cinematics, extra customizations for consoles and basically getting the kinks out for the online multiplayer. So when Tekken 6 for PS3 is released in the market, it better be as mind blowing as the transition from Tekken 2 to Tekken 3!

God Of War 2 Preview
Sony has released the first trailer of God Of War 2 and it's a doozy. This game looks like it will earn every little line that creates the letter "M"...as in Mature. The weapons and boss battles look intense and almost give one the impression that the GOW2 team learned a few things from the Shadow of the Colossus game.
Where the original game seemed to be broken up into run here, fight this, run here, fight that segments, GOW2 looks like Kratos won't be able to get much of a breather. Some of the regular enemies look extremely tough and the bosses....fuggedaboutit.
We can tell you one thing: you will believe a griffon can fly. You know, a griffon....one of those mythological beasts that sports the head of an eagle with the body of a lion and the personality of a used car salesman? Kratos gets to ride atop one as it soars over the land, not to mention having to leap over to another beast in midair, Starsky and Hutch style. We've posted a nice whack of high res screens, so get on over in the media area and have a looksee.
I don't want to give away any spoilers regarding the first God Of War, but I kind of have to, so if you haven't already played GoW to completion, look away!
Sony hasn't exactly been as "hands on" in the software department as competitors Nintendo and Microsoft. Their first party releases for the PS2 have been decidely "meh" if you compare them to the love they showed the first PlayStation system. Warhawk, Twisted Metal, Destruction Derby...I mean, those were some kick butt games! When God Of War showed up last year I honestly wasn't expecting much, but after playing the game for 5 minutes, like most of you I was blown away by it all.
Recently Lindsay our Game News Editor reported that GoW2 was in development and I have to admit that I was shocked by the news that the sequel would be appearing on the PS2 and not Sony's next generation monster. That's definitely great news considering fans of the first game won't have to part with hundreds of dollars just to play a visually enhanced sequel
While we don't know too many details of Kratos' next adventure, we can tell you that the mortal warrior who brought down Ares the God of War in the first game (there was that spoiler I was talking about) now sits upon the throne on Mount Olympus, but his adventure is far from over. Now Kratos must journey to the far corners of the Earth in an attempt to end his torment in an epic battle between Gods, monsters and mortals. Of course, it will all be up to you and lame'o gaming skills, so better brush up. You wouldn't want to disappoint a dude like Kratos; he doesn't look like he'd be as understanding as your boss at the local Arby's.
We expect to have lots of time with Kratos next month at E3, so stay tuned for more cool info!

God of War Review
Since God of War was first demoed back in early 2004, it's been on the wish list of many action/adventure fans. God of War begins with a suicide, that of the main character. While this may sound like an exceedingly short game, it becomes clearer over time. Kratos, a tough Spartan warrior, throws himself from the highest cliff in Greece. As he plummets, you see the events leading up to the suicide. Essentially, Kratos was transformed into a killing machine by Ares, the God of War, who then tricked him into committing a sin. Kratos seeks vengeance on the Ares. This begins the combat, and the emotional tale that surrounds the action.
The setting in itself is powerful, with vast open environments that can be quite beautiful. The detail in some of the locales is quite spectacular, and the same applies to the creatures that you will encounter. Each have a number of variants.
The camera is fixed. A term which may (and probably will) put some gamers off, due to the unspectacular fixed camera in other games. However, Sony have evaded all the problems that arose from previous games, and it works tremendously well. It zooms in and out at certain times, making platforming objectives so much easier. Sony have made it seem almost beneficial to the standard manipulative camera view.
Kratos comes armed with chains that are attached to his wrists. At the end of these chains are sharp blades, for swinging and building up fierce force and power. The viciousness of the weapon fits Kranos's character neatly. Not only visually satisfying, but the sound of the swinging and clanging together of these vast blades is quite terrifying. Athena also loans her giant blade to the warrior, but most of the time it seems so much easier to just use the chained blades.
As mentioned in the Rawpulse Preview, Kratos can sweep enemies into the air, and follow with a series of juggling attacks, for an effective combination. Once enemies have been eliminated, they break up into glowing red orbs, which can be traded for upgrades. One slight problem with the AI, is that it seems to be more aggressive that smart, but you don't really notice, as you'll be battling your way through.
Button sequence attacks make a truly exciting element of the game. When an enemy is worn down from the basic attacks, Kratos can move in and perform a finishing move, or instigate a mini game fatality, which involves a series of buttons to be pressed when prompted. The tougher opponents will require a more complex series of buttons, but the reward is great. Kratos will perform some spectacular moves, complete with flips, stabbing, and a finishing move that is disturbingly violent.
Not only do creatures leave the red orbs for trading, but also some drop orbs to increase your health. Some creatures deliver magical energy, or a combination of several orbs. If you press the wrong button during a sequence attack, you will leave Kratos open for a violent counter attack. While it may be simple to just avoid this kind of attack and kill the opponent with a traditional attack, it's so tempting to unleash a damaging series of splendid attacks.
As you progress through the game, other powers are given to you by the Gods. Ripping the head from Medusa delivers her evil gaze; Poseidon donates an electrical attack, Zeus his thunderbolt, and Hades, with an Army of Hades power. These powers can be upgraded, similarly to weapons, with advantages to higher power levels. Additionally, Kratos can release the rage of the Gods, which offers invulnerability, and enhanced attack power. Combined with some of the previously stated powers, Kratos is deadly.
For an action game, God of War contains some of the best puzzles. They make sense in terms of the story and settings, and they seem to fit in with the current level position. The puzzles may not be complex, but the main theme is action, so it makes the game seem more whole and complete.
God of War provides an unprecedented thrill, and is a real pleasure to play.

Sony have made it seem almost beneficial to the standard manipulative camera view.
Kratos comes armed with chains that are attached to his wrists. At the end of these chains are sharp blades, for swinging and building up fierce force and power. The viciousness of the weapon fits Kranos's character neatly. Not only visually satisfying, but the sound of the swinging and clanging together of these vast blades is quite terrifying. Athena also loans her giant blade to the warrior, but most of the time it seems so much easier to just use the chained blades.
As mentioned in the Rawpulse Preview, Kratos can sweep enemies into the air, and follow with a series of juggling attacks, for an effective combination. Once enemies have been eliminated, they break up into glowing red orbs, which can be traded for upgrades. One slight problem with the AI, is that it seems to be more aggressive that smart, but you don't really notice, as you'll be battling your way through.
Button sequence attacks make a truly exciting element of the game. When an enemy is worn down from the basic attacks, Kratos can move in and perform a finishing move, or instigate a mini game fatality, which involves a series of buttons to be pressed when prompted. The tougher opponents will require a more complex series of buttons, but the reward is great. Kratos will perform some spectacular moves, complete with flips, stabbing, and a finishing move that is disturbingly violent.
Not only do creatures leave the red orbs for trading, but also some drop orbs to increase your health. Some creatures deliver magical energy, or a combination of several orbs. If you press the wrong button during a sequence attack, you will leave Kratos open for a violent counter attack. While it may be simple to just avoid this kind of attack and kill the opponent with a traditional attack, it's so tempting to unleash a damaging series of splendid attacks.
As you progress through the game, other powers are given to you by the Gods. Ripping the head from Medusa delivers her evil gaze; Poseidon donates an electrical attack, Zeus his thunderbolt, and Hades, with an Army of Hades power. These powers can be upgraded, similarly to weapons, with advantages to higher power levels. Additionally, Kratos can release the rage of the Gods, which offers invulnerability, and enhanced attack power. Combined with some of the previously stated powers, Kratos is deadly.
For an action game, God of War contains some of the best puzzles. They make sense in terms of the story and settings, and they seem to fit in with the current level position. The puzzles may not be complex, but the main theme is action, so it makes the game seem more whole and complete.
God of War provides an unprecedented thrill, and is a real pleasure to play.

Download PS2 Games - How to Download PS2 Games Online
What would you say if I told you, you can now download PS2 games online? Not only has the newly arrived PS3 been out for quite a while now...but the previous systems games (the PS2) are still costing almost as much as they did when released. These days it now a lot more convenient and practical to be able to download PS2 games online and transfer to DVD through the power of the internet.
When downloading any software program or game from the internet it is always good to know the risks and issues involved. There has been much publicity in recent times on people using illegal peer-to-peer applications to enable free downloads. This is where you really benefit from using one of the paid services online for peace of mind when do download PS2 games. For a one time fee, not only do you get peace of mind any files downloaded are legal, safe and virus free, but also many of the better download sites will offer a comprehensive library of PS2 games.
Having the service archive a list of games and provide both the games, software and licensing required is generally well worth what is typically a once off nominal fee. So, Are these sites user friendly and easy to use? Well, from the investigation I have done most seem to be. Of the 3 sites tested the process generally involves logging onto the website, performing a search for the games title, then clicking the 'download PS2 game' button. The game will generally take around 2 hours to download, (although this may change depending upon the speed of your internet connection).
Upon downloading the games will need to be transferred to DVD before they can be played on your PS2. Thankfully each of the services I subscribed to had their own DVD burning software, and as I have a DVD burner in my laptop is was no issue transferring the games onto disk.
Which are the best sites to use? There are quite a few sites available; many may be specific to a certain platform of console. Generally speaking the services that offer a large collection of games and downloads (think 10,000+) are reliable platforms that will offer both a good service and solid support and tools for the user should you encounter any problems.
I am an avid PS2 gaming Fan and crazy about console gaming in general. Check out my full PS2 Download review on how to download PS2 games
