Mafia II takes you to an era when criminals had real class...and a seemingly unending supply of bullets. This mob-saga sequel flashes back to the late 1940s to early 1950s underworld, where there were three must-have criminal accessories: an overcoat, a fedora, and a Tommy Gun. Looking for a way out, Vito, the son of a poor Italian immigrant, is tempted by organized crime and its shortcut to the American Dream. He and his childhood buddy Joe team up to try and become part of the Family. With a cinematic storyline, environments that load seamlessly, and a throwback, licensed soundtrack, Mafia II unfolds like a classic Hollywood gangster movie.
Great story, but really nothing else. If your looking for a fun 10 or so hours through a good story you should check it out. but don't expect to find much to do in the open world. What this game does best is make you feel like your a 40's-50's era mobster, and it is VERY detailed, weather it's the bottles breaking all around you when your in a gunfight, or how your car gets dirty after driving it for a while, or how you have to manualy open every door, the game feels very authentic. The music is sweet when you get to the birth of rock 'n roll, and the voice acting is top notch. If you love movies like Goodfellas you should play this game. The major downside is there is really no replay value whatsoever and there is NOTHING to do other than the missions . The gunplay is fun but the enemy A.I is not great by any means. This is a great game to rent, but deffently don't buy.

Red Dead goes Undead in this new adventure that unleashes zombies on the Wild West. Red Dead Redemption followed former outlaw John Marston across the frontier, where he chose to travel an honorable - or reckless - path. This time, there's no morality to worry about, and no weighty choices to be made - it's all about survival. When an undead plague ravages the West, it's up to Marston to find a cure for the disease and deal with the pesky zombie problem it creates. Battle zombies Wild West style, using frontier weapons and tactics in a genre mash-up that will have you wondering why someone didn't think of this sooner.
Red Dead Redemption is, arguably, one of the greatest games I've ever played and I thank Rockstar for releasing such an awesome game; if you played this expansion, you probably played the game so I can spare the drool fest.Undead Nightmare opens with a wonderfully macabre spin on the original game's events and the story sets off. You'll run into familiar characters from the original game showing their same old charm; essentially, it's another couple of missions added on and that's just fine with me. As the game continues, the dialog gets a little hackneyed but you stick with it and what luck, the end of the storyline seems to be have reached with a little bit of mystery about Marston, a little bit of creepiness and then the payoff is null. No arguments about it making sense or adding up, the only issue is the build-up to what could have been really cool was nothing; it wasn't even lame, it was absolutely nothing. Maybe that's life.
I enjoyed the spooked out score but was a little turn off when I was forced to listen to a Halloweeny-Surf-Rock track. It was tolerable during the town cleansings as it
threw back to bad zombie movies and just felt nostalgically good. This Surf Rock abomination was probably meant to feel like an epic 'ride off to battle for the third act' but I simply wasn't feeling it; I worry the Rockstars of San Diego may have muddled with the music to include their skateboard lifestyle.
Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare delivers a game as solid and as well-done as the original; as an expansion, it excels. What it also has is originality; there are westerns and there are zombie games but who thought throwing them together would be such a rich and fulfilling experience? It's shortcomings, though bothersome, are few and do not spoil the experience overall; fans of the awesome game will likely enjoy this expansion.

The Story of Fable 3
The next Fable will be authored by a new generation. Return to the kingdom of Albion and shape your destiny playing as the child of your character from Fable 2. Ascend to the throne and decide how to rule. Kind or cruel, you will bear the burden that comes with the crown, making choices that could ripple across the entire kingdom. Your character, canine companion, and weapons will evolve according to your combat style and morals. A new Dynamic Touch system lets you reach out to your loved ones - or take a swipe at your enemies. This time, the choices are more severe and the outcomes even more profound.
I, typically, in every game, always try to complete everything prior to the final quest. I've learned from my past mistakes on other titles. But in Fable 3, you're rather forced into completing the final quest (Part 1) to get to the aftershock effects of your decisions in Part 2. Part 1 wasn't bad at all; however, Part 2 is way too short and completely lacks substance and left me asking myself what's the point of continuing?
I had high hopes for Fable 3 and was excited to finally receive it. I dug the last 2 games, but yes they needed work. I was hoping the developers had read and taken to heart the many complaints of many gamers reviewing the previous ones. Well, they may have tried. There weren't as many glitches, that I noticed, but IMO, they fell short in gameplay.In an attempt to not spoil anything, IMO the side quests are bland, tedious, and repetitive. The main quest, rather Part 2, is way too short and virtually pointless. I don't see any point continuing after the main quest is complete, other than to trying to obtain the weapons, clothing, etc. But, I'm also not one who plays XBox Live. I prefer to remain reclusive and complete a game in its entirety and on my own. Fable 3 forces you to play live in order to open all demon doors, to obtain all weapons and clothing, etc. I'd prefer XBox Live be an option and not a mandate. I didn't play live and therefore wasn't able to complete everything. Argh!I believe Fable 4 needs more focus, whether on battle or running an empire. The fighting is way too easy and the ruling is quite banal. And, Reaver and Logan need to remain in the end. There just needs to be more focus or something...It's definitely worth a rental, and I put days of playing time into it and had fun, for the most part, as it is rather funny seeing 2+ wives together in the same room. But I stuffed the game back in the Gamefly envelope yesterday, feeling disappointed yet anxious for Fable 4.

The Force is Strong with this one.
In the first Force Unleashed, you were gunning for targets that Darth Vader sent you after; this time, Vader is gunning for you! Go on the run in this sequel to the fastest-selling Star Wars game of all time. Vader wants to clone you to create an unstoppable Sith warrior. You have other ideas. Uncover the mystery behind your past, search for your lost love, Juno Eclipse, and harness incredible new abilities in a story set during Episodes III and IV. Wield two lightsabers at once, unleash new Force Powers, use Jedi Mind Tricks, and fight with a fury designed to show your former master just how powerful you've become. This sequel felt like an extension of the first, more than a new game in itself. You play as Starkiller's "clone" and are out for vengeance to take down Vader, with the help of the Rebellion and some Jedi. You are bound to find your love, Juno, and you are basically on a hunt to find her and take down Vader. If you liked the first game, basically you need to check this out.
THE GOOD
Melting through storm troopers at record rates is still a blast, and the ridiculous powers you have make it all the better. You can crush TIE fighters mid flight with death grip, and rip through enemy AT-MTs with some sweet combo cut scenes. The death choke and ability to play mind tricks adds some humor, making a helpless trooper either jump to his death or shoot his team mates. The symphony soundtrack is nothing short of the cornerstone of what a Star Wars movie sounds like. Epic scenery is also a trademark, and this game does not disappoint on the graphics department. Challenge modes provided some added difficulty and replay value. Easy to unlock achievements.
THE BAD
I found the campaign to be short once again, and was hoping for way more action with new force powers and sick dual saber combos..but was let down HARD. I could've thought of 1000 cooler ways to use dual sabers (which don't add anything to the gameplay FYI). Even though the force powers were the same, the upgrades just breathed horsepower.
THE UGLY
Surprisingly, the story is empty and forgettable; not something you normally get from LucasArts. You also spend 95% of the game on rainy, dark, and cloudy Kamino. This is the cloning planet we all know from the 2nd movie. In the 1st, we were taken to Kashyyk and like 4 other colorful and unique planets with their own different enemies and life forms. Kamino looks like the machine world from the Matrix. Redundant finishing moves and jumping/targeting enemies are still very awkward. Aside from that, it's still a must rent.

The Need for Need for Speed.
In Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit you can choose the right side or the wrong side of the law. Either way, you are definitely going over the speed limit! Set out to be Seacrest County's top cop or its most-wanted racer and get there at top speed with help from some of the finest engineering on four wheels. Gorge on horsepower with vehicles from Porsche, Lamborghini, alfa Romeo, and other top manufacturers, including some rides playable for the first time as police vehicles. Manage your ascent with the Autolog, which tracks your progress, recommends challenges, keeps you connected with friends, and lets you see what the competition's been doing.
I like that this NFS title has a more realistic driving experience than previous versions. The physics crash engine looks terrific and the cars look more realistic than ever. The only downfall to the game is its lack of balance between playing as a criminal or a cop. As a criminal, I can do 200mph+ in a McLaren F1 and yet the cops can pass me and throw down spike strips. Yet when I play as a cop, I can hit 200mph and barely keep the criminals in my sight. There are a few more imbalances such as this between cop and criminal but not enough to destroy the entertaining game play. I would definitely recommend this title to other racer-game enthusiasts.

To Be an Assasin or not to be
In the thrilling third installment of Assassin's Creed, you will need help from your Brotherhood to complete a mission
that's simply too dangerous to pull off alone. Infiltrate one of history's greatest cities, and team up with other
assassins to strike the Templars at the center of their power: Rome. Master Assassin Enzio is back to lead the Brotherhood.
Recruit, train, and deploy assassins across the city, sending them on missions or rallying them to help with yours. The
Brotherhood continues online, where you can match your assassin skills against anyone in the first-ever Assassin's Creed
multiplayer.
Like the first two Assassin's Creeds, Brotherhood IS KICK BUTT. The campaign followed the first two, which you don't see a lot in games now a days. The graphics are awesome, the cut scene graphics have improved from the second one. Overall i
would recommend this game to any gamer.

The Dead Spce Effect

His reward: Waking up from a coma to find himself hunted by the government, fighting dementia, and stalked by nightmarish visions of his dead girlfriend. And that's on top of a new infestation to battle! Stare down hordes of frightening Necromorphs in this survival-horror sequel.

This Game is a Fright F.P.S game. You want to play this game at night by yourself, to get the full effect of this game.
All About black ops
Fight in the shadows cast by two global superpowers in a new type of Call of Duty experience.

Infiltrate fortresses high atop snow-covered Soviet mountains, strike your enemy deep in the jungles of Southeast Asia, and more. Use authentic Cold War-era vehicles and weapons on missions that combine stealth with full-blown combat. COD's traditional tactical-shooter style has been expanded with new types of first-person scenarios, and plenty of new multiplayer options. And thanks to input from Black Ops vets, you'll feel the full intensity of critical flashpoints that threaten a world's uneasy balance of power.
This video is just one of many of my friends who play this game. The random stuff happens every second on this game online.
So if you love this game its a must have for a F.P.S. (first person shooter.)
