TRINE (2009)

Trine is a side-scrolling action platform and puzzle video game, available for the PC and PlayStation Network. It was developed by the Finnish company Frozenbyte. The game was released on PC on July 3, 2009. The PSN version was to be released in July 2009, but last-minute bugs discovered in testing close to its release date caused its delay. Eventually it was released on September 17, 2009 for the EU and on October 22, 2009 for NA. A version for Xbox Live Arcade is being developed by Atlus.

Gameplay

The player controls and switches between three different characters (a thief, a knight, and a wizard) to try to complete levels. There is also a cooperative play feature, whereby multiple players can join in at any time to control different characters simultaneously.
Each character has their own health and energy meter. Energy is used for certain weapons and abilities, and is replenished by blue-colored bottles found throughout levels. Health is replenished by collecting heart-shaped containers, which result from destroying certain enemies.
The player also has a single experience rating that is shared among all characters, and is incremented by acquiring green-colored bottles found throughout levels. Every 50 experience points, each character is given one point towards the purchase of upgrades to their abilities.
Treasure chests are also spread throughout levels, each containing a charm that offers the bearing character new or upgraded abilities. The player can transfer these objects between characters, though some will only have an affect on certain characters.
Checkpoints are spread throughout levels, in the form of silver orbs on pedestals. Upon crossing a checkpoint, any deceased characters are brought back to life, and any characters below a certain amount of health and energy are replenished by that amount. The amount of energy and health replenished is dependent upon the difficulty setting chosen by the player.
When a character dies, the player must choose another living character to continue playing the level. If all three characters die, the player is sent back to the last checkpoint crossed, and all three characters are resurrected.
Enemies primarily include walking skeletons and bats, along with boss characters, like giant skeletons and other large creatures. Some skeletons are armed with swords, others with bows and arrows, some spit fire, and some have shields. Skeletons are capable of scaling walls. Other dangers include lava, fireballs, giant sharp pendulums, and various other booby traps.
Trine utilizes Nvidia's PhysX physics engine to provide objects and characters full physics interaction.

Dragon Age Origins

Dragon Age: Origins, (also known as Dragon Age), is a computer role-playing game currently in development by BioWare's Edmonton studio. The game will be released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in North America on November 3, 2009. Bioware has stated that the game will run "very well" on Windows 7, released just two weeks before Dragon Age.
Dragon Age: Origins utilizes a new game engine named Eclipse. It has been confirmed that a toolset for creation of fan-made content will be included. The game will be single-player only and not provide LAN support. BioWare co-CEO Ray Muzyka describes Dragon Age: Origins as a 'spiritual successor' to the Baldur's Gate series, though it is not based on Dungeons & Dragons.

The designers are incorporating 'origin' stories for each race and some classes in the game. For example, a Dwarf Noble will begin the game as part of the royal family in one of the Dwarven cities, and a Dwarf Commoner will begin on the streets of the city. Origin stories determine the background of the player's character prior to the main events of the game's story, forming an introduction to the game world while also comprising hours of game-play. People that the player meets during the origin story may reappear throughout the game, some of whom may be adversaries.
There is no tracking of alignment as in previous BioWare games, but the moral choices of the main character throughout the game will still affect the story. The player may save the world whether choosing to be good or evil, but the decisions that the player makes in the process will change the game world – deciding who will become King, for example, and affecting nations and races and their places in the world. These decisions will also influence the companion NPCs, possibly causing an NPC to leave the party or even attack the player.
As with the Baldur's Gate series, players will be able to issue orders to NPCs in real time or while the game is paused, and queue up actions such as spells and special attacks.
Several of the game's features have been confirmed.There will be three base classes to choose from: the rogue, the warrior, and the mage. These classes can be upgraded later into a specialized class. The confirmed specialization classes are Berserker and Templar for the warrior, and Shapeshifter for the mage. The six character backgrounds are Human Noble, Human/Elf Mage, Dalish Elf, City Elf, Dwarf Commoner, and Dwarf Noble. The game will use a party system similar to that of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, in that it will feature the main character with up to three active party members, chosen from a large pool of NPC's in the game. The camera will be over the shoulder third person view when zoomed in, and an isometric-style view when zoomed out. The spells in the game will interact with the effects of others. For example, a blizzard spell would put out the flames caused by hitting something with a grease spell and then a fire spell.

Prototype:-The Shapeshifter 5 Star Rated Games

Description

An all-new, third-person open-world/action game, PROTOTYPE™ lets gamers feel the power of being the ultimate shape-shifting weapon. You are the PROTOTYPE: Alex Mercer – a genetically mutated man without memory, armed with amazing shape-shifting abilities, hunting your way to discover what created you and determined to make those responsible pay. As Alex, gamers tear through a densely populated contemporary New York City with Parkour-style agility, consuming anybody that gets in their way…assuming their physical identity, memories and abilities. Fueled by a three-way war between Alex, the Blackwatch (military) and a viral outbreak known as the Infected, players venture into a deep, dark conspiracy 40 years in the making!

Features

• DEADLY SHAPE-SHIFTING ACTION – Alex Mercer is a shape-shifter with amazing powers of combat, destruction and deception. As Alex, gamers can consume and absorb any living person they come into contact with while moving through PROTOTYPE’s New York City backdrop, and as such, he can gain access to their memories, assume their physical identity and use any special abilities/powers they had, each time bringing him closer to solving the growing conspiracy behind his existence. Further, Alex can mix and match genetic traits to create incredibly deadly biological weapons, including razor sharp claws, blades, armored skin, shields and more. Used correctly, Alex Mercer – the PROTOTYPE – is the ultimate shape-shifting weapon.
• UNPRECEDENTED LOCOMOTION AND AGILITY – Alex Mercer’s movement in PROTOTYPE is based on the art of ‘Parkour’ – a French term meaning to move from one point to another as quickly as possible principally using the abilities of the human body. Being more than human, nothing in PROTOTYPE’s bustling New York City setting is an obstacle for Alex. Players will vault over hundreds of cars, run vertically up the sides of skyscrapers, scale huge distances in single jumps and more.
• ‘DECEIVE AND DESTROY’ GAMEPLAY – PROTOTYPE’s ‘Deceive and Destroy’ gameplay allows players the opportunity to blend in with the crowded population and covertly progress through the story, or fully unleash Alex’s powers, moving through New York City as a walking slaughterhouse – shape-shifting and consuming enemies in plain sight on the street, commandeering military vehicles, including Apache helicopters and Abrams tanks and causing destruction at every turn.
• NEW YORK CITY IS YOUR HUNTING GROUND – PROTOTYPE’s playground is contemporary New York City done right! The city is jam-packed with thousands of pedestrians, hundreds of cars and is truly a bustling, thriving representation of the world’s most famous city. The population is extremely dense, providing for an endless feast of gameplay possibilities, so when things start to explode, players really get the feeling that the city is caving in around them. Furthermore, in reference to some of PROTOTYPE’s boss battles…there’s definitely a need for a setting as big as Manhattan.
• A, NEW, ORIGINAL EXPERIENCE FOR GAMERS – PROTOTYPE is an original intellectual property created internally at Radical Entertainment featuring Alex Mercer – an all-new anti-hero framed within a conspiracy-drenched plot that provides gamers a fresh storyline and experience to play through. With no memory of his past, Alex Mercer’s sole mission is to find out who’s responsible for what’s happened to him…and make them pay. As players evolve Alex and his shape-shifting abilities throughout the story, they’ll incrementally learn more and more about his tortured past while combating the lethal Blackwatch Military Special Forces and a virally mutated enemy faction known as the Infected. Gamers will also delve into the deep, dark back-story mechanic known as the ‘Web of Intrigue’ and witness a conspiracy 40 years in the making spiral out of control… revealing Alex Mercer’s past and defining his future.
• DEVELOPER PEDIGREE – Radical Entertainment is the developer behind PROTOTYPE and touts a wide catalog of successful titles, including the highly acclaimed The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, Simpsons Hit & Run and Scarface: The World is Yours. PROTOTYPE is powered by Radical Entertainments all-new proprietary Titanium game engine, sporting mind-blowing gameplay with explosive on-screen action, and is one of the first games ever to support Neural 7.1 Surround™ Sound certified by THX for audio and video quality.

New PSP-Go is a glimpse of the future of the game

The Go-PSP looks and feels too sexy to be disturbed in the controversy. Operational However, the voters of the discord surrounding peripheral Finalize Sony held game was inevitable. The Go will open a new chapter in the videogame industry is a welcome change for everyone.

Sony has the discs for downloadable content that the only way by which means GB game dropped, the downloading of games, game collections of many years of PSP owners "obsolete. This cutting retailers and rumors that some refuse to rich, the new equipment in stock.

Meanwhile, Sony has plans to kill, a program that can replace the PSP owners to download their old code to UMD. The main thing is that PSP owners should plan on radically new.

Despite the controversy, the GB of free disk, a thin, lightweight and extremely portable game that eliminates the need to order a few games in the bag. It also looks at the turbulence and the vibration of the rotating disk, creating a gaming experience with a quiet sweetness.

The games can have a PC, PlayStation 3 or the crossing directly on the built-in Wi-Fi, also allows the online multiplayer games available for download.

There is a 16 GB flash memory built to store downloaded songs, but it is likely that Sony releases come with more storage capacity.

If the memory card is not sufficient to meet the needs of the space to be, there is a slot for Memory Stick Micro.

New on the Go is Bluetooth support, an excellent addition, since the PSP built-in Skype. It also means that you can use a PlayStation 3 controller with the thumb.

The Go is available in two colors, white and black. Drag the magnificent display of 3.8 inch LCD (about the same size as an iPod, touch screen) shows the controller know PSP, but more squeezed together design is really more easier and more comfortable to hold and as the recent widespread use button.

Although he moonlight as a music player and Internet browser, music player, the Go is awkward and clumsy browser.

But as a portable gaming device, the Go is unmatched. PlayStation published a library of unique titles PSP - including the god of war and the upcoming portable Little Big Planet - and announced the next PSP Minis, a collection of bite-sized book cheap, perfect for travel.

Start the $ 250 to perhaps a little too rich for a portable game device - especially given a Blu-ray PlayStation 3 can handle is only $ 50 more expensive.

However, the Go is play a solid entry in the line of PSP, and a glimpse into the future.

NBA Live 10

Of all the sports, which may be turned into video games, none of them are as simple as basketball. The rules are fairly simple, the qualification is not particularly complicated, and the presentation is fairly simple. Enter "NBA Live 10", the last entry in the venerable franchise, EA Sports. It's only five guys, a ball and a hoop, is not it? Maybe not.

The Basics

Suit with one of the 30 teams in the National Basketball Association, for games through exposure, bows in playoffs, and multi-season dynasty.

The heights

Ultra-Smooth Flow

Much of the basketball is on speed and pace of the game, especially when working with teams like the Suns and the Cavaliers, which greatly in the transition game. Hoops Video games tend to slow down everything, but 'NBA Live 10 "the pace keeps up. It is a constant flow that is not fast arcade-style - basically as fast as an NBA game is to move.

Player-specific skills

More than any other sport, basketball is a game for individuals. A man can absolutely bring the other four on the ground for victory (just watch) the Cleveland Cavaliers LeBron in the first two years. And if a player is hot, it can mean the entire game. "NBA Live 10" includes the situation and act accordingly. Each player can get hot at any time and change the content of the game. To move during a Knicks game with my beloved, I succeeded by a handful of theatrical quality, with Al Harrington, who manages the Knicks lead to victory. It's like the old "He's on fire" trick "NBA Jam" save for Basketball ball real flames.

Camera-Ready Presentation

Although NBA Live 10 "bears the mark with ESPN to the substance in the game is totally stolen dissemination of TNT, which treat them as a basketball crazy Sideshow, it is in general. It is a compliment that all the graphics, repetitions, and play-by - (Care Marv Albert) play together to make one of the most beautiful Doppelgangers shipment I ever seen.

The Lows

Overcomplication

The biggest problem with "NBA Live 10" is the commitment to the strategy as part of the game. For someone who is regularly in the NBA, they know that for every well-designed games, there are a dozen executions are just a lot of physical prowess. "Would like to call NBA Live 10" that every time a piece of the Word, which slows down the game and makes it a bit unbalanced. It would be better if the play calling system was somewhat more effective and intuitive, but after many, many games, I found myself whistling shot clock violation, and I tried to take a position for a pick-and-roll.

Limited Options

Given all the mini-games that are competing in the "NBA Inside 10", "Live 10" is pretty spartan. There is nothing to do but play basketball. No competition of skills, no dunk contest, not two games against two pick-up. It makes the whole thing a little musty. There is not even really a form of practice, except for an agreement on the menu screen that lets you close a handful of giants. So I have to break at the menu screen as a way of the action.

Nitpicky details

I know the answer to this has to do with contracts and sponsorship, but it is strange that the arenas in the game so specific and yet are Madison Square Garden, called "New York Knicks arena. This is nitpicking, yes, but if everything is correct , is this kind of thing really extraordinary.

Final Word

"NBA Live 10" looks and sounds good and looks good, but it seems that there should be more about them. Regardless of the size of fate gameplay is the fact that the overall outlook is not derailed goal. Think of "NBA Live 10", as Darko Milicic: fundamentally sound, but certainly not a superstar, a plateau.

Supercar Challenge Review

There are things that we like Supercar Challenge. Faced with Razzle Dazzle cyclists as Colin McRae: DIRT 2 and Need For Speed: shift work, dripping with over-the-top production values, it is refreshing to play an honest simulation racer.

Buy your copy of PSM3 for £ 4.99 and they have delivered to your home! 

Especially one that a large number of real circuits, a high-end line-up of engines Maserati MC12, Koenigsegg CCX, McLaren F1, Ferrari and naturally enough, the Sultan of Brunei jealous.

Learning Curve

The actual driving - game - let us down. The simulation mode provides management a real challenge - in fact it's a bit longer. Turn off all you can choose and realism at the expense of the game, but therein lies the greatest weakness of the game.

In a single car, estimate distances correctly, if it speeds from corners and if you have your tires at the limit of their grip, a physical and not simply replicate listening experience Supercar Challenge.

It feels like 70mph to 40mph, which make the difference between a corner and sits in a gravel bed making. Yes, you can overcompensate to override, but it is not right.

This is the game not only problems, either. Dense AI, and a carpet damage model make things worse. Supercar Challenge has a good stab at trial Gran Turismo-like race, but it is still not over the network.

Need for Speed: Shift Review

Come back, Need For Speed, is all forgiven. I know we will take you and your shiny wheels in the desert, because you lost the thread. But we love you again ... 

Forgive us a little emotional, but with the line (from the heady days Hot Pursuit 2 and Most reach up to the tired and sad ProStreet Wanted Undercover), our relationships with Need for Speed has been a ride of roller coaster of highs and lows were. 

No doubt, the creation of the British developer Slightly Mad Studios has revived the series and made it a serious contender. Of course, it helps to move the Need for Speed: saying that last year's King of the Road, illuminating Code Master's Race Driver: Grid, as a benchmark. 

Gone are the police. Thus, the illegal street racing which is unwanted, obsessive thoughts with major visual changes (including body kits, vinyls and color schemes can still be optimized) and all attempts to act crazy or a bit part models Glamor screaming at your mission objectives through placement cell phones. 

Instead, we had a damn good driving simulator to areas of law: beginning to be bred a lot of cars for motor racing as pandering to the LA treatment, visceral motor noise; punish vehicle damage ticks, and working really only live, the less you trust the driver supports. We would like to admit it is much more realistic than GRID, but without the serious and threatening nature Race Pro or straight-laced features in Forza Motorsport 2 

All the problems we had with handling Preview stage has been resolved out, and what is still plenty of feedback without feeling inaccessible hardcore. We still have some questions, but - the manual transfer switch on the LB and RB buttons are a terrible idea (no control customization options, either). And mode of operation requires such precision, it is more an exercise in how easily you can feather the gas instead of the fun, smoke pluming Race Driver madness. 

In contrast to the fragmentation career Grid mode (you throw a Demolition Derby with a Formula 3 single-seaters and so on), giving shift much more predictable progression. Work your way through four phases of breeds, from a VW Golf or tired old 1970 Skyline is up to a Bugatti Veyron, McLaren F1 or Pagani Zonda general Need for Speed. 

In fact, even with the new direction and serious intentions motorsport very clear that a shift Need For Speed product. 

Although developed by EA Black Box, co-(need NFS game for the last ten years) did, it should not be surprising. Although EA has entrusted the driving duties Slightly Mad, the black box on behalf of their distinctive stamp on the case too concentrated. 

In addition to the above changes and the glittering showcase sections, it comes in the form of driver profile. Sitting with the devil, the angel of aggression and precision at the shoulders (the two main areas in which they assess your driving skills), you will be rewarded, depending on how you behave behind the wheel. With skill marks overtaking every aspect of running (drafting, drifting, podiums, etc.) and special events Invitational unlocked depending on the style, they act so appealing constant pats on the shoulder. In addition, they can be a good indicator of the ability of an online opponent used. In a short time before everyone has all the gold that is ... 

The best part is that even if you strip away bells and whistles racial Case-star collection, award marks Horten, swooshy menus and expensive licensed soundtrack, you're still looking, fine-Renner, hold the handle can head up against some very tough competition . Shift can not apply a criterion to turn 10, Polyphony Digital and Codemasters, damage model may not have taken the best of the genre, and it is not the absolute last word in a realistic driving experience. But it has sparked our love for Need For Speed - which in itself is quite an achievement.

Guitar Hero 5 Review

You may have noticed our growing indifference to Guitar Hero. In the past year has seen franchise Rock Band, as the music loads of choice established, and the constant bombardment of GH editions, each of which offers minor improvements, has slowly eroded our enthusiasm for the old versions.



We can whine about market saturation Activision all pages long, but claims that Guitar Hero 5 was baked on a dime would be absolutely incorrect. Contrary to all expectations for the fifth installment in a serious step into the realm of party rock band, and the jump-in/jump-out new instruments and means, the reproduction of new standards for the rhythm-action genre. Both functions are ideal) for meetings (from the menu to switch between songs or instruments, switches subject seems ridiculous today, he will contribute immediately as a touch to each song in Quickplay.

The inability to members of the band could be saved, not sent home, too, though not fail-mode pre-book mode Jukebox allows users to experiment with a higher degree of difficulty, without penalty. Incredibly difficult and Fretwork drum tracks for those who remain serious challenges for the guests, only now they are supplemented by an impressive catering to casual gamers.

The career mode, always morphing has seen a further positive contribution. This time, each song comes complete with a reward for nine stars, five for performance, after perfection, and three for a role, created for a particular instrument or teamwork impressive. Stars are the single currency to unlock new sites and tools. Gear useless, we should say, because you helped crazy avatar remain with the dolls faces Neversoft and their suits.

Although role playing is the main goal of any collection effort GH5 DRM could before it began to fail. Hold down the memory card and hard drive to the house of a friend's live-less is a recipe for disaster, as the game problems of DRM is a bit strange.

FIFA 10 Review

There are times when the game is designed to remember: the third lives in the Scarecrow Batman: Arkham Asylum: Strider battle in Half-Life: Episode 2, download sniper in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. And then there is this game designed with the subtlety of this time never stops. A 40-page rocket that exploded in the mail, stream-line the last minute race to keep downtime to lead in a season maker, free kicks Cheeky exposed under the wall and jump to the side netting, obelisk Curling pen that slips into the road below . Some games may be promising in the new sights, night after night. But FIFA 10 Can.

Birthdays latest game is the most competent on the ball 360. Updating the niggles have disappeared last year, up more quickly, smoothly Footy leisure screamers from outside the box now easily dikompensasi, dribbling and new options for parts that do not terduga.

We will say FIFA always a fun game of football but not completely true. Select showdown Premier League and, yes, two players will enjoy the same strength of end-to-end action with a lot of "wow" moments easy. A match between Notts County and Torquay, however, is really different.

A lower position players can not use most of the skill moves, and the battle between the forces of good football rarely weakest. Skills without Rooney or Torres in the scope of this group is lower grinds to victory is very satisfying, and if not for all people is that they change the speed of the extraordinary attraction of leading Footy Home. Any level of football you want to play FIFA with surprising realism give.

Improvements have been meringkuk in all positions. In the right hand function skills dribble mengolok fun advocates, although rush back from the center of the body they tend to throw a piece in the way of fire. Animation movements are all very detailed (the only weakness is little delay until the players pass or shot has been finished moving). Small and beautiful movement that will affect all Shredders out there that Double Tap Y, guardian of the guardian rooted in their lines.

Several features have been pinching directly from PSE: yellow markers to help identify players scratch the site more easily than before, while the game continued to flow quickly as possible backlash. Of course, all those who watch football know that kicks faster, breaking the flow of the game, so relieved to see the ref waves in profit from each opportunity sensitive.

Comment never be shouldered and this year is no exception. One particular set of offices we really astonished because each of our comments about the strange game will repeat almost verbatim by Andy Gray. Spoof festival very high quality, just try dancing robots that people other than Peter Crouch and see yourself ...

One thing that we learned about the Footy game is a game that actually violate singularity never appears after several months of trial. While last year PES will collapse under the pressure kickabouts anniversary day in FIFA 09 stands the test of time. We believe that FIFA 10 will be tergoyahkan not the same, but the bitter pill to swallow, there are always opportunities.

But we plowed for hours in all shapes and share a tendency to go through long (and then change the settings of 'auto' "semi" or "Manual") that there is no fracture. Between classical Manager Mode, Be A Pro, Virtual legends and all that many may go to one of EA. For now, all placed perfectly into place. We will see you in court.
