Mega Man X7 This instant


An onion being a maverick? what happened to the boss selection screens we used to see where there were bosses we were scared to face first because they looked bad? None of these bosses looked threatening and the weakest looking are actually the hardest...(the kangaroo boss.) Capcom should've kept it 2D and axel has no purpose. The ability to switch between characters takes away from the challenge and megaman sounds like doug funnie. Avoid!Get more detail about Mega Man X7.

Street Fighter EX3 Immediately


street fighter ex3 has the best graphics of any Street Fighter (SF) game ever produced. The characters are huge (compared to previous SF games). The animations are very fluid and very realistic. Kicks really look like kicks, and punches accurately reflect true martial arts styles. Special moves look beautiful and amazing. The background and camera angles actually change when special moves are executed.

street fighter ex3 is 3d, which means the camera angle can move around during the fight. it doesn't move around so much that it can make you dizzy (or hard to target the enemy). It moves around enough to make it exciting and still interesting.

I spend a lot of time playing this fun game. but the biggest drawback is the challenge. On a scale of 0 to 10 with 10 being hard, this game usually has a difficulty rating of 6. I have to even minimize the damage setting so i don't finish the other guy off in 10 seconds.

the computer doesn't seem to block many attacks. similarly, some characters seem unwilling or unable to attack. most matches are less than a minute. while it may seem exciting to be 1 fighter taking on 3 opponents on simultaneously, or participate in a 2 on 2 tag team match... even on minimum damage setting, you'll be able to finish off the other guys quite quickly.

so, graphics are the best plus, difficulty is worst con. Executing the special moves is also very difficult. I've played this game for hundreds of hours. But I have only executed special moves by luck.

Still, this is a great game. And if you get it used at amazon or somewhere, it definitely is worth the less than $20 price tag that it carries.Get more detail about Street Fighter EX3.

James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing Order Now


When I first bought this game, I was expecting disappointment. EA's last Bond title, Goldeneye: Rogue Agent, failed to impress me and overall I was dissatisfied. However, Everything or Nothing marks a turningpoint in Bond game history that I'd have liked to see be improved on.

The gameplay in this game is top-notch. Shooting enemies is simple and satisfying, due to the innovative (or maybe not) lock-on system. Within a few hours, you'll be able to pop off enemies and create moments that look ripped right from a Bond movie. A key gameplay feature is the Bond Sense. The directional buttons will bring you to the weapon select menu, which will rest at the bottom of the screen. Meanwhile, the game screen tints blue and goes in super-slow motion. Bond can look around and pinpoint key things such as a Guard's status (health and awareness), shootable and throwable objects, etc.

A little-known thing is something that people call "Bond Sense shooting". Essentially, Bond sense shooting is like a manual version of the Mark and Execute system in the upcoming Splinter Cell: Conviction. It allows Bond to pop off multiple enemies in rapid succession on the fly, in a matter of a second in-game. Basically, you lock on to an enemy, headshot him, go into bond sense, target the next enemy (albeit strategically), headshot, etc. It sounds unimpressive but in execution, it looks cool and feels incredibly badass.

While this is a Bond game, one thing I noticed is an absence of stealth as a serious option. Yes, you can sneak around and kill people without anyone noticing, but it's impossible to go a whole level without being seen. Eventually, there will be a part where rappel guards jump in and everything turns into an epic firefight. I'd equate it to Uncharted 2's stealth system. It's there, but don't rely on it for the whole time.

Bond controls exceptionally well. The controls work well and are incredibly fluid, and the aforementioned lock-on system makes moving, rolling, covering and shooting a breeze. Bond's moveset is not limited at all, and he will be able to do various rolls, cover manuevers, and fighting moves.

The hand-to-hand combat system is new, and a welcome addition. The Square and Triangle buttons handle punches, and while it may seem incredibly simple, pressing the two simultaneously will allow Bond to do a neat-looking takedown move that will instantly disable the enemy.

I wish the fighting system were a bit more polished, though. I found it possible to run up to a guy, press Square and Triangle simultaneously, and immediately tackle him and throw him over my shoulders, killing him instantly. It's not hard to pull off and it feels a bit cheap, but sometimes hand to hand combat can dock you a bit of health, so it's not completely biased towards Bond.

The mission types are great fun and incredibly varied. You'll find yourself in epic firefights, behind the wheel of tanks, motorcycles, helicopters, you name it. Once you complete a mission on 00 Agent difficulty, you can choose to complete Platinum challenges which will unlock cheats (Golden Gun, Infinite Ammo, Infinite Battery, etc.). I usually find things like this to be gimmicky and boring but the Platinum objectives are so fun and challenging that it's very much worth going for them. Just to give you a general taste, Platinum challenges usually involve going through a level in an alloted time limit, or without taking damage or using any ammo.

The graphics are very good. Not Splinter Cell, but good. Models look great, textures are decent res, and shadows are present as opposed to the cheap "dark circle on the ground" trick that some devs try to pull. Animations flow beautifully together and there is high attention to detail, especially present in the driving segments.

The voice acting is top-notch. Pierce Brosnan, Willem Dafoe, Judi Dench, and John Cleese all provide a voice cast that is indistinguishable from their performance in the movies. The bad guys communicate with each other and sound like stereotypical Bond henchmen.

Overall, this is one of the best action games on the PS2. I'd highly recommend it, especially to fans of the series. Make no mistake; this game makes you feel like James Bond.

great multiplayer action, the controls take a little getting used to (I recommend switching to a different preset than the default, I think it's the second one that's good, I can't remember) but it's a good brawling game.

Save Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 2


Growing up my father bought me the first two Fatal Fury titles in the early 90's when they were only available for the Neo Geo. Due to the expense of the AES home carts I couldn't afford the future release of the Fatal Fury titles as a single AES cart would cost upwards of $250+! Fast forward to the present, what used to cost $250 for a single FF title on the NEO GEO now costs only $15!(or $5 if you divide the costs between the three titles jam packed into one ps2 dvd disc. Its such a bargain! If I saw this forthcoming when my family was still dishing out $100s on AES carts I would have never spent so much, seeming as AES carts are now easily being imported on DVD disc now. That is technology for you. *sigh* Enough of me acting as a financial adviser, on to the review.


I have to say Fatal Fury has been one of the greatest fighting series to ever come from SNK. It was actually their first series that was a staple. It was released to counter Capcom's street fighter series and though did not get as much attention to average gamers it did receive its own cult following. What really separated FF from SF was its unique personality and gaming mechanics. From the start SNK wanted to make a fighting game so different from Street Fighter, or other SF knock offs, and it succeeded. From the unique character personalities to the deep story line, SNK truly did deliver a great game and continued to do so until they were bought out.

The Real Bout saga continued the FF series after the initial three FF titles. The first two FF titles played more retro and stoic and the third FF title had a complete overhaul with modern gaming mechanics and new character sprites. The changes made in FF3 were carried over to RB and included with some new features. I've digress thus far. So now on to the RB titles themselves. To sum it up with a few words, RB is what makes SNK fighters so different from fighters like SF or Guilty Gear. Compared to the first 3 FF titles RB's fighting is much more aggressive. With the inclusion of rush combos the actions always seems fast paced and frentic. The fighting in this game doesn't include high jumps or fancy acrobatics but just straight beat'em up with the intention of demolishing your opponent. Unlike the previous FF titles before RB the action moves faster and strangely there is a more shock element in this game, like as if the characters were strapped with one ton of weights and every time they had a forceful landing they would induce a slight earthquake. It just ads to the fast aggressive pace of the game. RB plays really fast and aggressive compared to SF Alpha. I would call RB a raw bralwer, just lots of action set at an aggressive pace. The learning curve in RB is relatively easy if your a regular to fighting games. Its easy to pick up the game and really start to master a character after one session of practice honing your skills with that paticular character.

I've digress enough and excuse for my unfocused review. I'll sum it all up, get this game if your a fan of SNK fighters. Its set at an amazing price with incredible value, 3 FF titles packed into one disc. If you ask me its the better of the two FF archives. I'm absolutely glad I bought it. SNK never fails to deliver when it comes to fast aggresive gameplay and compelling storylines with unique characters, though in terms of character balancing, that is something to be addressed later.Get more detail about Fatal Fury Battle Archives Vol 2.
