Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 The Masters


Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 The Masters

Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 is a spectacular game. That is of course if you’re a golfer. The new version of Tiger Woods did not really “add” a lot of new game play features. It added the enhanced caddie mode which helps your golfer develop along your way as a professional. The game has added a few new courses including Augusta International to the course line up. The graphics have been improved heavily from 2011 as well as the putting. Now the system is designed with your caddie giving you the best recommendation for your shot. One of the “EASY” features they took out was the 3 click system, not you have to actual practice your shot before you swing or your shot will be off. This will make a lot of casual gamers upset but appeal to the more hard cover golfers like myself. So in conclusion Tiger 12 added some new course, golfers and a few bonus things to the game play but removed the minor things that made the casual gamer enjoy it. From a golfer stand point this is an incredible game.

Pilotwings Resort 3DS Review


PilotWings Resort 3DS

For fans of Pilotwings I am proud to say the 3DS has brought out an amazing 3DS title for all the fans. For those who are not a fan of Pilotwings all I have to say is this game will bore you. The game offers a wide variety of 3D concepts including gliding, flying a plane and a jet pack. You will spend most of the time doing missions to move on to the next ranking. The downside to Pilotwings Resort is it gets repetitive. You find yourself doing the same thing over and over until all the missions are completely, then the game ends. The graphics show some good indication of the power of the 3DS. Pilotwings is a simple to play fun title that you can kill a few hours with.

Crysis 2 Review


Crysis 2

Crysis 2 is an incredible FPS. The series originated on the PC and has finally made its way to the console gaming market. The world has been ravaged by a series of climatic disasters and society is on the verge of total breakdown. Now the aliens have returned, with a full invasion force bent on nothing less than the total annihilation of mankind, starting by trying to rip the heart out of Earth's most iconic city. In New York, terrifying alien invaders stalk the streets and a nightmare plague strikes down the city's myriad inhabitants with brutal epidemic speed. The city's systems are in chaos, its streets and skyline are smashed and in flaming ruin. This is New York City like you've never seen it before. Neither paramilitary law enforcement nor the might of the US military machine can stand against the invaders, and all who choose not to flee are dead men walking. Just to survive in this maelstrom of death will require technology beyond anything any modern soldier has ever seen. One man will inherit that means to survive. One supersoldier, wielding the combat enhancement technology of the future with Nanosuit 2, will make the last stand to save humanity from destruction in the urban jungle that is New York City. The game play offers a lot of interesting features. Your Nanosuit 2 is fully upgradable based on your needs as a FPS gamer. Throughout the game you will encounter many areas where you will be begging for ammo and other parts of the game where you have no idea which weapon to use. The graphics are insane, bottom line. This game offers some of the smoothest textures that I have ever seen on a console. Multiplayer is fun as it takes the future of FPS and mixes the game play with battlefield style gaming. The game offers a really unique storyline that will suck you in from the beginning. ---Post by Ryan of The Game Exchange
