Just Cause 2 - Review

3rd person

The game is Just Cause 2 made by Avalanche Studios and Square Enix. I do almost only have positive experiences with the game that s a singleplayer, open world, shooter game.
Let's get right to it!

Gameplay

The gameplay in Just Cause 2 is really free, which is quite obvious as it is a open world game. The world that you can move around in, either by walking, in car, plane or boat is some asian collection of islands, where there is a dictator and tons of soldiers ready to kill everyone. Most people are poor, and the game could remind some of North Korea.

It is possible to have three weapons at a time, two pistols and a big gun, like a sniper, machine gun or a shotgun, i could be going on, but well you get it. Other than those three weapons you got a chain or rope with a grapping hook attached. You can shoot this grapping hook anywhere and Rico, which is the character, will fly to the place. Simple but a really fun thing that you can play with for hours.

If you get tired of playing around, then you can do missions where you help different rebel groups. Panau, that is the name of the country, and runned by a dictator in the same way as the western world see North Korea, as said earlier. Which by the way actually is the reason why Rico, who is character, came to Panau. Those missions could for example be about taking over a habor or hack the satellites.

Another cool feature in the game is the racing events. You can race all over Panau in any vehicle you could possible think of. If you finish a race, a mission or if you are just making chaos, you will be awarded with dollars that you can use on the Black Market on either vehicles, utilities or weapons.

You are also able to install mods, which can give you a whole other experience of the game. It could be new vehicles, weapons, new missions, Black Market hacks, etc. etc.

Graphics

Once again, i've been lucky to find a game with amazing graphics. There is some beautiful details, which makes it realistic and personally i feel like i'm a part of the game. This applies in the mountains with snow but also on the sunny beaches. There is about 250 unique vehicles, all of them filled with detalis and are close to the real cars, which i really appreciate.

Advantages & Disadvantages

Advantages
  • Realistic graphics
  • Open world and the freedom that follows
  • Worked through missions
  • Almost three hundred unique vehicles
  • Tons of easy-to-install mods
Disadvantages
  • No multiplayer
  • Rico have unrealistic much HP

Final comment

I would like to end the review by saying that Just Cause 2 is a beautiful and a complete game, that really deserve more attention than it got. The graphics are amazing and the same applies for the gameplay.
With a price on 15€ you get really much quality compared to what you have to let go. The only thing i feel that is missing is a multiplayer function, but i know that there are Just Cause fans working really hard on this.
I will be buying Just Cause 3 as soon as possible, and I recommend you to also do so!

Orcs Must Die 2 - Review

2

It's time for a review, and this time it will be the game Orcs Must Die 2, by Robot Entertainment, that we will put in the searchlight. The game is the same style as Dungeon Defenders, that means it's a Tower Defense game, but instead of a top/down view, you play it as a 3rd person game.
Lets begin!

Gameplay

Just a picture of the OP gun
In Orcs Must Die 2, your task is to stop the orcs, trolls and other monsters before they have been through the level. You can do this by using traps, weapons, trinkets and other magical and clearly not magical things. You start out by choosing if you want to be man or women, each have some special weapons. I chose the man and got a pretty powefull gun that kills all the orcs.. Or something...

For every level you complete you will earn skulls, those skulls are used to upgrade traps, weapons, etc. in the spellbook, this can make a big difference, and you should take your time to do it. In every level you have a number of lives. It depends on the level and which difficulty you are playing on. The levels take place on mostly a castle and the area around. The longer you come in both the individual level and in the game itself it gets harder and harder. 

You have the possibility to play online both with some people you've never met, but also with your Steam friends, and this really make the game much funnier, as with many games that have both single- and multiplayer, so be sure to try that out too, if you get the game.

It's fast to start, and only and bit confusing menu, as it's difficult to get right to the online part of the game. But  it isn't anything you think much about.

That was a little short Gameplay part, but there really isnt much.. You slay orcs and monsters and it's hilarious.

Graphics & Music

The graphics are a toony style, which is perfect for this kind of game, so not much to say there other than it gets you in mood to play more. The game wouldn't have been much fun if it had Skyrim graphics.

Another thing to get you ind mood are the music. It really gets you in action mode, and is just great composed. And also the characters comes with funny lines a bunch of times through the game, which also give a plus.

Advantages/Disadvantages

Advantages
- Great for pastime
- It's cheap
- It's funny
- Got some great music
- Multiplayer mode

Disadvantages
- A bit of confusing menu
- Can get really hard at points

Final comment

So overall Orcs Must Die 2 is a really good game, that you can play for hours and hours with your friends and alone. It's cheap and have cool graphics and music. I can nothing but recommend the game to everyone!

Assassin's Creed III - Review

3rd person
Once again its time for another game. This time i will be looking at the game Assaissin's Creed III by Ubisoft, this game was expected by thousand of gamers and fans waiting for this game to come out and when it did the game was quickly sold. I been playing this game for about 2 months i completed the game a month ago and now im just enjoying the online play. But lets get started.

Gameplay

The Gameplay in Assassins Creed III is just amazing. You have as player alot freedom and you can travel along side the American east coast. The player can steal, make assassinations on many different ways, ride on horse, sail ships in the Atlantic ocean, hunt in the forest and climb around on houses to get easier around and faster.You also have a large amount of weapons to choose between, there is the known Tomahawk in and there is also bow, axes, knifes, swords, rifles and alot other.
There is a special pistol called Duck-foot which have 4 runs, which means you can hit 4 with one single shot, but you have to practice alot with it. These weapons can be found by stealing from soldiers or weapon leaders, that you killed.

Although the free part of Assassin's Creed is a major element, then i personally like the campaign most. It is really implemented, and I haven't played many games that have had such a complete history. You start as the protagonist Haythem, who is the father of Connor, when you have completed some missions, then Connor is coming into the history.

Missions are well made, you really fell like you are in a universe that is in the 1800s. Ubisoft says that every person you assassinate in a mission, lived back there and had a central role in the American civil war. Sometimes you get back to the present, there you have the control of Desmond who gets some missions. This is the only thing in this game i dislike, its only a small part of the game and it isn't destroying the game.

Another part of the game is the music, it just gives a feeling in your body, for example. the music changes itself as soon as you are persecuted or are running around on the roofs, to a kind of action music, it affects the body to be more upbeat, but it is typically so concentrated around the game, so you would typically not be able to reproduce the melody behind.

Also as a new thing in Assassin's Creed III is that you can now climb around in the woods, which gives a good advantage of hunting and ambushes.

Advantages/Disadvantages

Advantages

- Good and thorough history.
- Beautiful and realistic graphics
- Good Gameplay and natural controls.
- You are able to do whatever you want.

Disadvantages

- Minor bugs (ex. when you can't attack)
- Not the best Online/multiplayer seen.

Final Comment 

So all in all, Assassin's Creed III is a really good games, and are worth all the money, if I had tried the game before I bought it, I had been ready to give one hundred dollars for it, which I think most others would have done too. The graphics are good and realistic, and the same is the gameplay. And on top of the entire pool, you get to learn some of the history of the united states in a fun way.

Thanks for reading this review hope you enjoyed it.
