Darksiders 2

Classification: MA15+

Genre: Action

Developer: Vigil Games


Reviewed on: PS3

Release Date: 16th August 2012

Players 1 - 0


Run-through

Death as the name suggests is your main playable character, and he is a bad-ass mother fucker.  His job is to deal with death all around him and he takes no shit from any of the games NPC's who constantly need his help. Darksiders 2 takes the player on multiple quests and tasks set by other main characters who are lazy or incompetent. Darksiders 2 has a rich and enchanting world to explore that comes with epic music unlike the first Darksiders.

Diablo, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Tactics Ogre and more can all be name-dropped when talking about Darksiders II, which borrows heavily from them and others, but once again it’s all done in such a way that it never feels heavy-handed or obvious.



Death begins his journey on an epic crusade to erase the crime his brother, War, is being charged with: breaking the seals and unleashing the apocalypse on humanity. Death naturally has to reverse these crimes and prove his brother War innocent.


A Bonus of Darksiders 2 is the promise of Death's stead Despair, and yes your stead is available at a quick press of a button.




     Difficulty


The game’s pacing is handled well and at a decent length, and I never once felt like my hand was being held. Turning the difficulty up to Apocalyptic and switching off Tutorial notes leaves the 
                                                                                                                                                                         ^Inventory of Death

experience just that - a challenging and engaging foray into 
 a world of acrobatic plat-forming, challenging puzzles and visceral combat. 




Main features:
 Great new world to explore, Visceral Combat, Currency and Loot System is Simple and Delicious, The Voice of Michael Wincott as Death was a great choice, all this and a Deeply Rewarding Narrative! 



Rating:

9.5/ 10 Carrots for RPG lovers! 




Minecraft

AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Minecraft!

A little history of Minecraft:

Minecraft is a sandbox indie game originally created by Swedish programmer Markus "Notch" Persson and later developed and published by Mojang. It was publicly released for the PC on May 17, 2009, as a developmental alpha version and, after gradual updates, was published as a full release version on November 18, 2011. A version for Android was released a month earlier on October 7, and an iOS version was released on November 17, 2011. On May 9, 2012, the game was released on Xbox 360 as an Xbox Live Arcade game, co-developed by 4J Studios. All versions of Minecraft receive periodic updates.
By Wikipedia

Layout and Objectives

Minecraft let's those who want to build- do just that, at first the world seems confusing because you are thrown into life as a man with blue pants and shirt - seemingly all alone in a fast collection of biomes in the world.

Walking to find out objectives is your first move, a land filled with pigs, cows, chickens (not ducks) wolves, ocelots (once tamed become pet cats) and sheep. however when darkness falls hostile enemies appear to remove you from existence. 


Once you begin to understand the layout of Minecraft and accept its graphics, you grow the compulsion to build , and build 
                                                                                                                   ^ Example of Minecraft start in Survival Mode                                                                        
and build. And to also find any other blocky human being in existence!


Minecraft gives players a great deal of freedom within the game and the scheduled updates make the game more enticing with a new mob or craft-able item/tool to help you survive and customise. 

< Minecraft hostile mobs

Minecraft has an over-world and the Neither - Which is filled with multiple other ghouls and Ghasts and Zombie Pigman .
Neither Screenshot in Minecraft (no creatures) >


       Multi-player

Multi-player on Minecraft is available through player-hosted servers and enables multiple players to interact and communicate with each other on a single world. Players can run their own servers or use a hosting provider. Single player worlds allow LAN connection, so players on the same network can join locally without a server set-up.

A lot of reactions to this game can be firstly summed up by this video, however most people continue to play the game : 


Minecraft is a fun game for all ages and on both Pc and Xbox 360, and can become quite addicting, this game is continually added to for enjoyment and creation!



I award this game with:

9/10 Carrots for gamers that enjoy creativity!



Dragon's Dogma



Platform(s): Xbox 360 and PS3


Classification: MA15+


Reviewed on: PS3

Dragon's Dogma is a game that requires first time players to continually try at the game system within in order to achieve an understanding of how to play, once this understanding occurs the players are rewarded with a deeper experience and somewhat interesting game-play.

Start of Story:

Once you complete the detailed character customisation, you begin your life as a fisherman enjoying the uncomplicated life as a commoner. Before long a large dragon gains interest in burning your village and whilst its there it grows an interest in you. The dragon cuts away your heart and flies off, however instead of dying (cause that would make the game REALLY short) you come back as on of the 'Arisen', a hero persona that has a habit of killing beasts of all types and sizes.

Environment

The environment of Dragon's Dogma seems fairly standard at first, however that changes the longer a player continues their journey. The created day/night cycle dictates enemies within the environment whilst making it exceedingly difficult at night when trapped in a haunted forest - Wolves EVERYWHERE!. You are going to need to stack up on health when at a low level during night time!



Dragon's Dogma is built for those RPG gamers that love to immerse themselves in a fantasy world, along with action packed combat. Dragon's Dogma works hard to create a lively and persistent world for you to inhabit, players that are looking for a unique experience will find it with Dragon's Dogma.

I award this game: 

5/10 carrots for non RPG gamers

8/10  carrots for RPG gamers

The Razor Naga Hex - Wraith Red Edition!

The Razor Naga Hex - Wraith Red Edition!

Within normal RPG Games 6 hotkeys are only needed to create pure ownage and the Razor Naga Hex Mouse offers just that!

 6 MOBA/action-RPG optimized mechanical thumb buttons

With 250 clicks per minute this baby is small and deadly whether you're assassinating the enemy or fighting a horde of zombies approaching you!

I would recommend this mouse to any female computer gamers as it is smaller in size to other regular Razor mouses, whilst a smaller female thumb fits perfectly in the provided rest spot.

I award this product
7/10 Carrots!
