Legend of Zelda

Skyward sword

Link awakens to his fate drawing the goddess sword... awesome.

Despite the long video explaining how to set unplug, and calibrate the Wii motion plus, the 25th anniversary of LOZ is great.
Settle reference to link's awakening, YAY I CAN RUN AND JUMP. OH, this Zelda is definitely the princesses cutest rendition in ages lol.
Creepy boat dad returns in a new non-boat form.
Of course there is the awkward i know what to do, but how do i do it? Shut up and tell me how to... ok yeah just ignore what i just found out. Yeah that thing returns.
Swordplay is fun, spin attacks are easy.
Flying takes getting used to, but it's kind of fun.
Diving is cool and all but the control for it sucks. It took me way too long to hit in that circle.
I got good at using shield bash.
You have a rival called Groose or something, i hate him. So be sure to beat him in the race.
Oh Zelda... why do you always get stolen.

Fun: 8/10
Sound 10/10 who doesn't love that.
graphics: 9/10 they are great but i think it could be a bit better, twilight princess had much cleaner graphics but it looks beautiful.
It’s tough getting used to moving the Wii mote rather than aiming.

Fate//Extra

FATE//EXTRA Review:

NOTE: if you want The Black rock shooter game, get this. Same company.

I have not got to the action yet but the way its down kind of drags you into the fat universe.
You have a seat in Taiga's class, so you're not too far away from where you were in the anime.
Rin Tohsaka shows up day 2. But something’s not right....
This world may be fake?
Your main character has no memories outside school; does he even know his name?
He’s basically a blank slate for you. But he's just for the prologue.
Now the game, chose a gender, then decide between your 3 servants, i chose saber, this incarnation is a little full of herself but it's while the look is similar, she is a new Saber. Then an Archer, possibly the on from the main series. And a new class. However I have yet to check out the others.
A rock Paper scissors battle system that is very fast paced and calculated. You get 6 attacks a turn as does your opponent, your job is to concur them move wise, if 3 attacks connect in a row you get a bonus free hit.
Graphics: 9/10 clean cut and full. Nothing amazing.
Sound:    8/10 music could be better, original Japanese audio (LOVE IT!)
Game play: 9/10 simple and easy, maybe to simple but it looks good, and i cannot deny that i love it.
Story telling: 10/10 story telling is very important for RPGS. I found myself caught off guard by how well you are immersed in the game's world.

There is a hidden boss i hear, look up garden of sinners.

Batman Arkham city first Impressons

Arkham city

Amazing voice work coupled with really nice graphics and charecter models make the first look a sight to begold. the trailers did no justice to having the controller in hand! i won't spoil anything, but the first scene... is amazing.
The city is a tad tough to navigate due to it's massive size, you adapt to it tho, and the glide/dive bomb is a little difficult to get used to but you get better with time.

been playing it constantly, love this game so much.

Assassins Creed 2

I started Assassins Creed 2 last Saturday. I finished the first earlier that day. The first impression i got was the texture account is higher, but the realism of everything has dropped. So while the graphics are better, they aren't quite as real, more refined though, very well rounded. NPCs are terribly annoying sometimes; AI could stand improvement but it's fine.
 Graphics:   8.5
Sound:      9
Gameplay: 10
Fun:           7~10
 Great game minor problems, i got stuck on the ground and he was acting like he was on a perch, some NPC annoyances, but much less then Assassins Creed 1 (thank god they removed those mentally ill ones!).
