This game is called MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) in which we find different player teams (3 vs. 3, 5 vs. 5) battling each other to defeat the enemy and ultimately to destroy the other teams base.

Let’s start at the beginning, League of Legends (LoL for short) was created by the man who created the map in Warcraft 3 DotA, the game concept sounds good already right? It was created with the team at Riot Games and is today one of the most popular online games free to play (yes, it’s free) increased greatly in the past year. The game was released in October 2009, in October 2010 participated in the “WCG”, and this year in June it participated in the ‘Dreamhack’. To play LoL, access their website, and you can register for free. You can create your account on the American server or on one of the two European ones, the decision is yours. I suppose that you have already downloaded and installed the game, so it is time to log in with the newly created account. Once you have logged in, you have to create a summoner name you name ID and already you can start the game.

You’ll see a big, red PLAY button. You can follow the tutorial or start to play live, the decision is yours again. Note the right buttons “Summoner-ui ‘, profile, default settings of the game and shop which is in connection with the online store. Go to profile and you’ll find more buttons about the history of matches, champions (heroes) that you can use in games, Links of runes, masteries page, i.e. Summoner’s talents and spells page. You surely wonder what are those runes pages, and masteries, but first you need to know about “Champions”. Weekly, the game offers a new set of Heroes that you can use in the game for free. You can play with other heroes to but you have to buy them from the shop. How do I buy them you ask? Simple, after every game, you get a number of “Influence Points” (IP), part of a currency exchange system used in the online shop. Heroes in the stores have different IP prices ; you just need to have enough IP to buy them.

Also at the store you can find runes and skins for heroes. You will see that for champions, skins, rune pages, bundles of experience boosts or Influence points boosts there is also or a different currency needed to purchase them this numbers will be shown in red since you won’t have any when you first get the game these are the Riot Points, this currency costs real money. You can buy those RP with a credit card, pay pal, by sending and sms from your mobile phone or whit a pre paid; you should know that the only think you have to buy with money is the skins of champions which do not offer any advantage in the game play they are purely visual enhancements and a way for you to reword the game developer for their work the decision is yours.

About masteries, I can say that these are the talents that a summoner has. Each level gives a mastery point, in total with 30. You can choose between three talent trees: offense, defense and utility. Depending on the chosen hero, you can configure these talents you without any reconfiguration cost.

About heroes I can tell you that they fall into several categories: tanks, those who go in first in battles, Mages, who burn others in battles, support those who help teammates in battle, giving them auras or heals, and assassins those who are the most evil on the battlefield, using normal attacks combined with magic attacks.
Overall League of Legends offers you a great role playing experience from the thrilling environment of a MOBA game.

Two great powers trying to control the money, weapons and resources: NCR (New California Republic) – a military force relatively democratic and Caesar’s Legion – a group trying to imitate the Roman Empire through clothing, especially through the structures of internal organization. But her actions are so radical and almost all communities consider them a threat.

Apparently abandoned bunkers in reality hide the ultra-tech military and researchers Brotherhood of Steel which is a third power in Fallout: New Vegas. Bos monitors everything that happens on the surface waiting for a good time to allow the takeover targets of interest. Although the most advanced weapons and armor, soldiers have to patrol at night and spy without being detected, because their number is much lower than the dominant powers Caesar’s Legion and NCR.

Your character is a courier shot in the head and left in a cemetery on the outskirts of town Goodsprings, a rather small village. The game itself begins with the awakening of the unconscious and talk to Doc Mitchell, that tells you that a robot named Victor brought you in for treatment to his house.

Like Fallout 3, following an interview and an aptitude test, you define the personality and physical abilities. If you are not satisfied with the results, you can choose the desired skills freely, without being limited by the test answers. Elucidate the mystery of the storyline is related to the unfortunate event: who wanted to kill you and why. But the scenario is far from a linear one. Numerous quests make you forget you actually watch and get involved in missions get much wider than just revenge.

During the game, we shape karma depending on your actions. For example, if a character help kill a villain it is considered positive and improves your karma and you are more likely to attract allies in this category, and if you steal or kill innocent characters you get to be chased by the officials.

On the same principle you can join one of the forces mentioned above. Obviously, with a spring flower it doesn’t mean it’s spring so with a single mission is not enough to win the trust of powers like NCR. And confidence can be easily lost if you support rival factions. All these great communities are spies if you worked for their opponents they will know.

Not to complicate myself I preferred to go on my own and pursue my personal interests: money, weapons and small allies, but very useful (unlike doctors with special skills – capable of advanced implants). Sure, it is difficult until you builds strong character, hard to kill. Therefore at first we should look humble and carry out orders without comment commanders. But afterwards, you can help turn against them and who you want. The feeling that even an army of angry Legionnaires can stop is simply uplifting. You feel a kind of God of the desert, the only creatures that you can raise the “Deathclaws” some giant reptile very fast, strong and you can kill two, three strikes.

Regardless of the barricades which you are, remember that all the decisions you make throughout the game will not only influence the final showdown between the great powers, but also smaller communities.

Let’s say a few words about the difficulty of the game. As a mega-fan of the series (Fallout from the first appearance in 1997 and until today, except the failure called Fallout: Tactics), I noticed a growing decrease in the level of difficulty. And I do not mean that you can choose to play on different levels, but the ease with which you finish quests. I would have liked to se the dialogue become increasingly more complex, from episode to episode, closer to reality, not spin me around four, five possible answers, one of which opens the quest and the rest of the information is often only interesting by the fact that they are fun or give information about people and places in New Vegas.

The ease with which you go to eliminate enemies and complete quests depends very much on how you choose your character and builds Perk’s (special skills).

I for one, I chose a character that is the main skills “Small Guns”, “Repair” and “Barter”, but as I gained experience in other chapters have pointed out that we considered important: Lockpick, Medicine and Energy Weapons. Physical, moral and meta-emotional, character we built a nimble, smart and lucky.

I finally left about the graphics, because there is not much to say. There are obvious improvements compared to Fallout 3, but love the game and visually, especially due to slow-motion effects during the battles and endless violence. Unfortunately, bugs are present on duty and it happens often enough to bug you: soldiers and creatures trapped in the stones or put half underground, AI retardation (once you are caught stealing from his pocket and threatened the victim sees on the road, etc.)..

However, Fallout New Vegas remains a very solid game that immediately after you finish it you feel the need to resume some missions (especially those who decide the end of the game) or to seek an expansion pack on the net. For now, Bethesda has announced a new episode only available on Xbox – Dead Money is called. We hope soon to be announced on other platforms (Windows and PS3) as well.

The new physical engine of the FIFA 2012 game brings us a whole new feeling it manages to capture the aspect of realism that we missed in the previous versions. The 2011 version of this soccer game that the Ea Company presented to us this year not only that it brings us these wonderful new features but it also presents us some new ticks.

Although many of the tricks in FIFA2012 are old they are presented as new mostly due to these new physics engine which makes each trick you do unique. The ball reacts different every time you interact with it.

Also the player collision mechanics have changed and you can be witness to some weird and funny character collisions, especially when you chose to replay a game since you can adjust your camera view in such a manner that you will be able to see everything that happens in the field from every angle you desire. FIFA2012 was made by the EA Company and they are the leading Company in digital motion capture of a real life person. No matter how you put it you won’t be disappointed in the FIFA2012 soccer game, you will enjoy the new team management system.

The naturalness of holding a match full contribution and the new Impact Player Engine, a system developed specifically for EA Sports brings players closer contacts between the reality. Sure, this addition is not 100% perfect, with some really funny situations created from the impacts arising from different players taking part in games in FIFA 12. Overall, however, an extra element of realism is given, making, to some extent, figures from the land of virtual replicas of real true players.

Although you will find the game to be an overall good experience you will probably disagree with the control style that it leaning more into the style of a console type then into a pc controller type. This was implemented to serve better the new tricks that you can perform in FIFA 2012, the multitude of options you can chose when you want to send the ball into a particular direction have increased thus the controls are more complex.

Many of the greatest pleasures in the field of gaming I have with this StarCraft game but due to time I switched to other and other genre titles like (Tiberian Sun, Red Alert 1, 2, 3) and left it somewhere in a dusty corner of my chest of memories.

There was a big surprise to me when, about a year ago, I learned that my teenage game (besides Quake 2 and 3) will be due. I know, probably I learned much later than some of you, but I assure you that I remember with pleasure the times of 10-11 years ago. What times, what battles, the stories and then the memories. I did not live for the game and I didn’t felt worthy to participate in organized competitions nor would I say that I was very good but I was confident enough that I would dare to accept a game from anyone that would challenge me.

Anyway, enough with the stories, it’s time to move to more serious things. A few months before the release of the game I managed to get my hands on a StarCraft II kit (beta of course), whose release date was fast approaching. Immediately after installation I got like a chill of my known world woke up to life with the same wonder at what was happening on screen. What can I say, I felt at home among the three races already known (as well as they have not changed) whose features have remained largely the same. Zergs – some overweighed slimy bugs, humans, the Terans with their technology and technical superiority and the Protos air and any alien who is worthy of respect.

Changes from the first StarCraft both are equally small and large, but largely unobtrusive for anyone to go through periods where the original was in vogue. Not for those who are just now grab the StarCraft will not think it will be a difficult transition because everything takes place in a logical and natural environment.

Graphics has changed a lot but it is overwhelming especially in crowded scenes as well as characters and explosions, speakers full of confirmations, warnings and bass explosions on the battlefield. It is an experience that surrounds a fine mesh around the player’s attention seems overwhelming, the senses and the spirit of warrior grabbing each of us. I’ve found out that my protos friends, change for the better but with the same basic units and a bit redesigned to the visual demands of today. But technology has not remained the same, although the units are in a somewhat similar, they added some new combinations of buildings and upgrades have been changed so I still get the same pleasure to play.

As a passionate and participant in the golden era of StarCraft’s I, the new released StarCraft II is a joy and I look forward to it and hope a few games for everyone.

Do not reveal anything that would be, which are upgrades and which units were added, but we can say that the environment of the game finally became 3D, the feeling of depth, fine-tuned effects, excellent graphics and sound were exceptional even in the beta stage. The game is not yet free of defects; however, like everything good, it has to go through a stage of maturity.

It’s four o’clock in the morning and one individual in the guild voice-chat exasperated screams, threatens, curses and sobs because they had been (inadvertently) given an armor that makes him about 1.5% stronger to some one else. Officers announced a break of five minutes to decide how to solve the existential drama of the injured party, an occasion to run for your life cross the hallway into the bathroom.

Yon as a hippopotamus in the mirror and study yourself notice the bloodshed than formed on top of each other, crowded under your eyes that are so tired and yellow that if you did not know better, you would’ve tot it is because you have liver problems. If your mother could see you she would blame you as usually for the thousandth time that 12 hours standing with your eyes glued to the glass is not good for you. Your father no longer speaks to you, and going to college is a distant memory that provokes you nostalgia.

If you’re afraid that WoW: Cataclysm will transform you in the character of the previous lines, you should not worry. It is impossible. Once labeled as the most dangerous and as addictive as heroin and Facebook, the controversial MMORPG danger level that once was causing divorce claims drastically reduced. Report of effort / reward is considerably less, so the early missions in newly introduced areas and the high level is undoubtedly more interactive, more intense and less repetitive. Where you put the narrative thread is finally decorated with suggestive videos and animations, instead of abstract puzzle of information to be sought so far to understand the background story.

Thus, Cataclysm WoW is a more intense and more concentrated this time to halve the amount of experience needed to progress to the full, gained perhaps the most bright in color content provided by Blizzard so far. True, the old-new continent is smaller than the endless plains of the Lich King’s Wrath for example, but it is compensated by the dynamism and density.

Like the proverbial school yard dealer (not one that I’ve ever so), Blizzard has not neglected any potential newcomers, “nine goods” being represented by one race for each faction (Goblins for Horde and Worgen for the Alliance), with a fresh starting area and immpersive story that outlines the simple, clear and convincing integration into conglomerates of already established breeds.

For both fresh factions the learning curve is optimized even for the lost persons on Facebook, and narrative depth that is compelling enough to motivate even the most hardened of WoW veterans to make a turn.

Dead Island is a pretty strange combination of genres: it has zombies, but not survival horror, it’s first-person shooter but it’s not, dedicated screenshots too awkward made, he doesn’t even have a moving story. It has an open world, however, emphasis on melee combat, part RPG it brings a healthy benefit levels, experience every zombie can be destroyed, degradable weapons and improvements, plus a four cooperative online.

Once you pass the introduction of the weak and pathetic dialogue and you successfully ignore doubtful voices, you are free to enter the entire island, from the beach resort to the jungle, towns and sewers. In addition to basic tasks, a wide range of side quests give you the opportunity to walk through all the corners, collecting money from zombie tourists abandoned suitcases, all kinds of objects for improved weapons or machine parts. Most missions are in the category “very trivial”, especially in the second act, the sewers, but the beach is downright creepy.

You do not see every day a pool full of blood, corpses floating casually chewed three quarters, muttering threatening zombie in exchange booths or in the bath, and after every corner surprises you might like hide. At one point it even better to miss them because they gather in large groups, and the hero he is immune to the virus but not to death, fortunately, the only financial penalty if you die is that you are returned to life just a few meters away from the place of death, ready to take vengeance.

It is also extremely fun to crush zombies with the car and obviously more efficient than with a hammer, machete or a paddle. Dead Island is borrowing many of the co-op shooter from Valve, although not always very well done (see pale imitations of the zombie like bosses, which are bigger and more powerful versions of normal undying).

And like another weapon systems, this time borrowed from Dead Rising 2. Almost every pipe, stick, piece of wood can become a weapon, but there are also knives, axes and hammers. Whether you approach, or you throw weapons the emphasis is put on melee weapons, firearms appear later and are not great to use, when going after more than human enemies (yes, there are of these, but I would have to spoil the story), but even without these all can be improved until they have poison, electric shocks or spikes. Unfortunately, weapons degrade incredibly quickly, even if it is unique or special items, so you often wake up with a trivial bat or a pipe as a weapon.

The combat style is to say the less full of blood. The most effective method of killing is to crush the head of the attacker, preferably in the first blow, which will spread the brain in every direction, flesh, blood, a delight for those who appreciate such quantities of plasma non-stop. Personally, I said disgusted after about 10 hours, but that’s just me…

The visual is probably the most problematic, in addition to any awkward effect that happens in battle, where the engine misfires. Graphics may look better, but everything is very dull for the details and landscapes are copied from one area to another. Cinematic sequences were absent, and at first you need some time to get used to character movement and attacks. Animations are not proud, nor are the level of detail, except zombies, but their sounds, are 100 times better achieved and even able to shoot a couple of scares out of you if you are in a darker area. Obviously, everything is covered with generous amounts of blood and guts, so you do not stand to look around too much.

The cooperative, online only, lets you enter any ongoing game if you’ve already reached that level and to work with up to four players, just the number of characters to choose from in single-player. Connection via Steam is extremely stable, so there were no technical problems, only that I failed to find any game that had even four people to participate in the action. However, even in the two is very fun: you can heal your partner and you may be healed and you can attack and trade, changing objects.

Obviously, there were plenty of things to improve, but those from Techland have managed a much better job with Dead Island than the recent Call of Juarez: The Cartel. Technically, no shortage of bugs and awkward, but the overall experience will take about 20 hours into the campaign, because there are many weapons and missions and levels. But if you want horror stories this is not the ideal game.

And to begin this article directly with the conclusion, Duke Nukem Forever is not what you expected. Duke Nukem Forever is an old-school shooter with dozens of enemies on screen. Duke Nukem is not a superhero capable of carrying a huge arsenal of weapons. Duke Nukem Forever is, however, an old shooter without its own way too well defined, overly influenced by the changes that took place in this area during his long period of development.

The blame for this situation, unfortunately, belongs entirely to those of 3D Realms, are always looking for the Holy Grail of first person shooter genre, never satisfied with the results and too easily influenced by trends in the industry. Moreover, for years, George Broussard’s team kept in the dark all updates and changes to the game, away from fans who have supported it all these years. They, in the absence of something, began to create an image of the game themselves, and their favorite hero – Duke Nukem, or on the basis of their expectations, be influenced in several spin-offs of the series, such as Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project (a cute platform, very successful even today).

And as I mentioned earlier, these expectations have been largely shattered with the advent of the final version of the game. Duke Nukem Forever is a combination of Half-Life 2 and Halo, with a topping of Duke Nukem. Moreover, if we were to go back for a few moments in the mid 90s, and Duke Nukem 3D was going about in the same direction, with the same additional layer characteristic sunglasses blond hero, added mastery recipe popularized by Doom.

That said, Duke Nukem Forever should be considered in its current form, without preconceptions, as a member of the current FPS “family” and not as a remnant of the old days. And, viewed from this angle, Duke Forever is not just a game, even if veterans franchise and probably would have wanted something else.

Forever begins with a humorous sequence, which I had the opportunity to experience and demo, Duke reliving the final moments of Duke Nukem 3D, as a video game that he tries in his own luxury apartment, located on the second floor on 69 Lady Killer casino in Las Vegas. The first ten minutes of game action does not involve itself, but is rather intended to reintroduce the character’s fictional world players. Having rejected the alien invasion 12 years ago, Duke became the hero of humanity, extolled the newspapers, on TV etc.., I must admit that I felt great in the first minutes of the game, exploring a museum dedicated to Duke, giving autographs and interacting with all elements in the environment.

Unfortunately, as I said, the game falls victim to design inconsistencies emerged over the years who have left their mark more than evident on the actual game play of Duke Nukem Forever. After the introductory sequence, you are thrown into a very linear shooter that despite interactive environment, it leaves almost no freedom of movement. Not long before the first puzzles you come across individuals, undoubtedly inspired by the Half-Life. The problem is that the physical system in real time from Duke Nukem Forever is not nearly as developed and used by Valve’s Havok, these puzzles impression of scripted sequences seems so not finished.

In fact, this is probably the biggest problem of the game, a lack of finishing almost any chapter related to the single player campaign of Duke Nukem Forever. During the last part of the game, the Duke makes a visit to the Hoover Dam, which is by far the most consistent component of the single player campaign.

In fact, I think that not being able to carry more than two weapons at the same time is another great drawback of the game. Too bad, because the producers seem to have reached all the “sensitivities” when it comes to weapons included in the game: Colt 1911 (Duke’s default weapon), shotgun (by far my favorite, almost unchanged from Duke 3D), Ripper (machine gun with three pipes, also “imported” from Duke Nukem 3D), RPG (rocket launcher, they are able to track targets), Enforcer Gun (a new weapon that launches three missiles simultaneously on spiral trajectories that can be guided with the mouse), Shrinker and Freeze Ray (classic weapons in Duke 3D, kept almost unchanged) Railgun (Quake series inspired) and the devastating (weapon consisting of a dual missile launcher). They add Trip Mines classical (laser beams which, once reached, triggers explosions) and pipe bombs (remote grenades that can be detonated when player sees fit).

The health system has been replaced by a classic bar Ego, which acts as a sort of shield before the Duke dies. The difference is that Duke can recover all ego when performing “heroic deeds” such as the execution of a nearby enemy, or when involved in “male” actions. These can range from the admiration of a naked women in a magazine profile, and by playing basketball, air hockey or pinball (yes, there is a fully functional pinball game integrated in Duke Nukem Forever).

Another thing I appreciated the humor of the character which is preserved almost unchanged from Duke Nukem 3D before. Parts of certain monsters are accompanied by lines that are more or less fun, as we would expect from an “all American hero”, like Duke Nukem. Many have complained that in some cases manufacturers have gone too far with these lines, cross the border of humor and venturing into the realm of controversy. Perhaps it depends on individual tastes personally I’m very pleased with the attitude of Duke in this game.

Graphics is another chapter in the Duke Nukem Forever game that shows its age, with game play sequences mentioned earlier is one of the most inconsistent parts of the game. In some moments, looks surprisingly good, given the outdated technology used by Duke Nukem Forever (modified version of Unreal graphics engine 2.5). In other situations, however, the aspect of the game is downright pathetic, with patterns and textures that have no place in a title released in 2011. Fortunately, system requirements are not high, the game running smoothly even on computers not as efficient

Despite inconsistencies mostly related to single-player campaign, Duke Nukem Forever remains a title worth playing, at least to draw some conclusions about how you should NOT lie about 15 years with the development of such a game. But leaving aside the “history lesson” Duke’s Forever multiplayer is fun and chaotic in a good way, representing a welcome change in direction compared to current stereotypes that characterize the first person shooter genre.

The series tells the story of Cole MacGrath Infamous, a simple courier, which got stuck into the middle of a devastating explosion that laughed off the Earth’s surface an important part of an American metropolis Empire City. However, Cole not only survived this incident, but also, acquired the ability to control electricity at his will just as comic book heroes. Using his new powers, Cole can decide whether to fight for the people or leave the city population dominated by selfishness, by trampling upon innocent people for his own welfare.

The action of Infamous 2 takes place to another imaginary city on the east coast of the North American continent, New Marais, no doubt inspired by New Orleans. Cole travels there with his friend Zeke, for the amplification of the two hero’s powers, and it is where he will probably be confronted with the most powerful enemy, a huge creature called The Beast. Things are not exactly as expected since, New Marais is being under the sway of a militia created by Joseph Bertrand III, a religious fanatic that seeks to eliminate people with “special powers”.

The first thing that “hit” you when Infamous 2 starts is how much the graphics have changed for the better: The game looks simply delightful, New Marais, despite flooding suffered as a city more colorful than the Empire City. Furthermore, many elements are now destructible environment; they play an important role in game play: sometimes it is easier to destroy the pillars of a structure that will collapse all enemies within it, than to confront them in direct combat. Despite this environment of open and partially destructible game, Infamous 2 runs smoothly most of the time, was amazing how well they managed to optimize Sucker Punch title. Only occasional lack of anti aliasing in the certain effects or explosions remember that we are dealing with a game that still runs on the PlayStation 3 console that will come soon in the fifth year of his life.

On the other hand, even if the graphics improvements are more than obvious, familiar feeling once you get your hands on includes gamepad, the first mission of Infamous 2. Cole moves too, have the same powers acquired in the first game of the series, and the movement system that allows fast navigation through the city, was kept unchanged from the first Infamous. This has its positive and negative effects – any experienced player of the firs Infamous will know immediately what to do in Infamous 2, and its shortcomings – the movement system is inaccurate, Cole choosing to catch all kinds of cables and buildings in the worst moments.

Like the first title of the series, Infamous 2 continues to provide many times the player can choose between good and evil, between helping ordinary people or their exploitation for his own pleasure. But these choices are now implemented on several levels, from story development, through the performance of secondary tasks through to acquire new powers. Thus, as in Black & White, where you were guided by an angel and an imp, in Infamous 2 there are two characters that portray good and evil: locals Nix, who is in control of napalm and fire, and the former agent Kuo, whose specialization is mastering the power of ice.

The two women will fight for Cole’s heart, there are several moments during the game when you will have to choose between them: whether the borrowing powers of one of them, be it the side quests offered by two or the options you suggest to solve tasks related to the main story, balance between Nix and Kuo provide a degree of replay ability to the games crave.

Secondary tasks, such as the infamous one used to regain control over certain sectors of the city, also received a visible upgrade. One of the main complaints about repetitiveness was their first Infamous, Cole is always sent to the same task more or less boring / mundane. The Infamous 2 things have changed; most of these side quests are unique. There are some tasks that are repeated, but rarely enough to not become annoying. Instead, they were introduced and mini-sites storyline in such missions, the game of pepper and more from Sucker Punch.

These side stories round a good plot, but not as good as the first Infamous cohesive. The story of the Infamous 2 is broken into two: the struggle of resistance against Bertrand and the preparation to face the Beast, none of these threads are developed as they should really be. Comic cinematic sequences derived from animated pictures were kept in Infamous 2, but they are much fewer and story references only really appear in critical moments, the rest being used for scenes made with graphics engine to push events forward. As voices of the actor who played Cole MacGrath first title of the series was replaced, but the new voice is at least as good.

In terms of actual game play, not much has changed in infamous 2 appearance yet many bosses, especially mutant creatures appear from the swamp near New Marais. At first they seem a bit out of context, but, over time, the emergence of mutants in the swamp begins making increasingly more sense. Cole retains the powers of the first game of the series, to which you can add, as I mentioned earlier, and skills borrowed from both its aid. Thus, an electric vortex can be turned into a devastating attack by ice, and a grenade can be improved and to freeze enemies when it explodes.

With the Little Big Planet, Sony has tried to give to the community members a chance to develop their own content to play the title from Media Molecule offering a very powerful editor with which any enthusiast could fulfill its own additional levels, which could then be share with other players via PlayStation Network. This philosophy has now been borrowed and Infamous 2 Sucker Punch provides the necessary tools with which those interested can create their own missions in New Marais. They appear and then sprinkled on the city map and are generally very different from what normally the game gives. For example, in one of these missions, Cole must fight against a huge disco ball, attacking the town’s population. These user-generated Missions further extend the life of a title that already has a respectable replay ability.

Although many of the improvements of the Infamous 2, the first title of the series had more charm in his time, mainly due to better developed story. Even so, Infamous 2 remains one of the best games released this year and a title that PS3 owners should not overlook.

The first episode of this new compilation of Back To The Future is called About Time, and it was released just before the winter holidays of 2010. The story follows the adventures of the main character, Marty McFly, who returns while trying to save his good friend Doc Brown, the other protagonist of the famous series. This, as every scientist a bit crazy, succeeded again in coming in all sorts of trouble, and yet he managed in taking some precautions this time.

The story of this first episode succeeds in some measure, to capture some of the action of the movie from the ’80s, but not on the whole. Telltale Games have made a habit of giveing games a primitive 3D look, by creating somehow funny, cartoons specifically designed for children. Although a little more mature, graphic style is also present in the series of games Back To The Future, the impression left is not very good. I simply cannot imagine a Marty McFly resembling a doll made of glue, or a dog to be confused with an Einstein figurine created from gingerbread. These are subjective but they are only things that take your taste; others are probably excited about the artistic style used in these games.

Second, although the first episode storyline Back To The Future succeeds on how to approach the charm of films homonyms scenarios, during the game, these is simply too short. I know that we are dealing only with the first part of a series that will run not less than five episodes, but, even so, two hours of actual game play is far too little. The shortened the game play is directly reflected in the very low difficulty of the puzzles included in the game, which are direct, without the need for who knows what intellectual effort. Even in the event that someone would be able to block, there is a hint system implemented directly by Telltale Games that can provide “hints” to any solution.

Control remained identical to that used by producers in the third season of Sam & Max series or chapters Tales of Monkey Island. The main character is moved by WASD keys trough the decor, interaction with active objects is accomplished via mouse clicks. Why not use a solution based entirely on mouse control (classic point and click interface) remains a mystery, people from Telltale likely want to have a similar control scheme in all versions of the game, including the console. However, last year, Lucas Arts Monkey Island 2 demonstrated how you can have a Special Edition adventure game with a user interface on both console and PC.

A good thing is the use, of actor voices wherever possible, since they give life to the main characters in the original film trilogy. Thus, while Christopher Lloyd returns to the role of Doc Brown Spreaders, health problems have prevented Michael J. Fox to play Marty McFly again. Fortunately, Telltale Games have managed to find an actor that can imitate him very well on Fox (AJ Locascio), Marty’s voice is a flawless interpretation. Unfortunately, a method of audio compression is used too aggressively, which greatly decreases the playback quality of the dialogue.

Thus, while the game succeeds in some measure to revive the legendary Back To The Future, the game time is very low (even some games in Flash can provide several hours of game play); the banality and clumsiness of the puzzles present in these levels, the graphics and poor game control prevent us to recommend this title. Maybe things will recover in the second episode of the series.

However, the story is well told, and the cinematic, and dialogues, and the approximately 15 hours of adventure are far beyond the current offering’s DLC. In fact the Pirates of the Flying Fortress add-on is integrated into the game and can be approached both with the original character, and directly after creating a new hero. So get up on The Wandering Wraith ship, commanded by Captain Teal, a character without any mercy or love than for pieces of gold jewelry and eventually lost his great love somewhere in a cursed islands, populated only by hungry monsters.

Like the original, the hero gains experience and improves his attributes (stamina, strength, precision, hand), with direct effect on strikes with weapons or magic. Obviously, no skills are ignored, whether you want to be a mage, warrior, ranger or assassin. Metallurgy, alchemy, manufacturing of weapons and armor for the warrior, and multi-shot poisoned arrows for archer, spells of fire, water, air and earth or stealth assassin and traps are all ways to develop your combat skills.

A good thing is to improve inventory being less crowded interface, objects are not huge and every enemy is now an indicator of individual damage, “Scout” his ocular ability is allowing the research field from a safe distance to be your plan how to attack. And planning is really necessary for the enemies have been at school a few hours and now I know tactic to shield or hide, bosses are a real headache sometimes.

Because RPG Two Worlds II is a bit strange, in Pirates of the Flying Fortress we have multiplayer, with four new maps to those of the original eight players being able to face the four modes: Deathmatch, Duel, Adventure and Crystal Hunt. Unfortunately, at the time of the site review, we didn’t find online the players needed to experience the confrontation with human opponents.

The soundtrack is rich in sounds that bring to life the world and even the protagonist’s voice is something closer to that of a normal person, like all actors are much better than the original elected. How open and explore the game world is allowed by all corners, the change does not render any visual level, no hearing.

For fans of Two Worlds, Pirates of the Flying Fortress is a “must have” and the 14 hours of game play are really interesting, at least in terms of narrative. Obviously, not everything is perfect, but at least the major problems have been largely removed, the gaming experience is much more comfortable making any eye and players who have been tempted at the beginning of Two Worlds.
