Jackass the Game

Review: 7 Stars out of 10
The overarching story of the game has you directing the new season of Jackass, which in this case only runs for seven episodes. Each episode has five stunts to perform, making for a grand total of 35 stunts. In essence, Jackass: The Game is a collection of mini-games, all of them simplistic by nature, though some much more so than others. Each is very easy to play, requiring very few buttons. Only a couple took more than one try to figure out what to do, like the timing on an explosive golf stunt. But generally speaking, they're very simple by nature.

Rock On Str8 Rippin!

BioShock












Review: *9 Stars out of 10*
Based on the bottom of the Alantic ocean, this first person shooter is very outstanding. The great atmosphere and visual design is outragous! Along with lots of alternative character customizations the voice cast sells the story line. But little is wrong after about 5 to 6 hours of non-stop playing this game will freeze for only a half of second.

Story Line:The year is 1960, and you're flying over the Atlantic Ocean. One mysterious plane crash later, you're floating in the water, apparently the lone survivor, surrounded by the flaming wreckage of the aircraft. But there's a lighthouse on a tiny island just at the edge of your view. Who in their right mind would put a lighthouse this far out? You swim closer and discover a small submersible called a bathysphere waiting to take you underwater. After catching a breathtaking view of what's below, you're sent into the secret underwater city of Rapture. Masterminded by a somewhat megalomaniacal businessman named Andrew Ryan, this city is driven by its own idea of total freedom, with capitalism completely unhindered by governmental meddling and science unhinged from the pesky morals of organized religion. Sounds like the perfect society, right? Well, even before you step out of your bathysphere and into the city, it becomes obvious that everything has gone horribly wrong down here. The city is trashed, and genetic freaks called splicers roam around, attacking anything that gets in front of them. At the heart of the matter is a powerful, corrupting substance called ADAM, which makes all this genetic tinkering possible and allows you to get your first plasmid power, the ability to shoot lightning out of your fingertips.

The epic saga continues with Halo 3, the hugely anticipated third chapter in the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo franchise. Master Chief returns to finish the fight, bringing the epic conflict between the Covenant, the Flood, and the entire human race to a dramatic, pulse-pounding climax.

Taking full advantage of the power of Xbox 360, Halo 3 expands on everything that has made the Halo franchise great, adding a wealth of graphical, technical and gameplay advancements, as well as offering a whole new level of online gameplay.
