Far Cry 2 Review




Far Cry 2...Is a awesome game when it comes to gameplay and graphics. The story does not continue on from Far Cry 1 it is a whole new story and game.

The game starts off with you choosing one out of 10 players to start the game with so after you have chosen a player you have to endure a +-10 minute long drive in the back of a Jeep Wrangler, but it gives you time to look at the Beautiful Africa.

Your goal/mission in the game is to find and kill the jackal, a Notorious arms dealer that is tearing apart Africa with a war between two rival Factions the APR and the UFLL.

Okay so now I will get a little bit more in to the actual gameplay of the game. The shooting is very original except your guns can rust up and jam in the middle of a gun fight so it would be wise for you to buy new guns at the gun shop to stop the old ones that you pick up from jamming on you. And you can also buy upgrades for your weapons to make them jam less and to make them shoot more Accurately.

The game has full 24 hour day and night Cycles and it also rains sometimes, you can set the time of day with your watch at your safe houses when you decide to take a snooze, I would Recommend you to set the time to night when you do a mission because it is a lot easier to do a mission at night because the enemy does not see you so easily.

There is also a few Vehicles for you to ride in the game like a truck, jeeps, car and a boats. Besides from the main mission that you have to do for the APR or the UFLL you can do mission to unlock more guns or you can go look for all the diamonds or you can just go for a ride threw Africa.

If you would like to make a walkthrough, hints & cheats, list for all the diamonds, list of guns and vehicles, or any help you need in the game just leave a comment and I will be happy to help you out with this awesome game.

GRevieBlog's rating for Far Cry 2 is a 8 out of 10

Crysis Review




Ah yes Crysis, Crysis, Crysis where to begin. Crysis is probably one of the best looking and feeling pc games I have ever played I will give it a 94 out of a 100, the only stupid thing about Crysis is that it is only available on PC and you need a monster PC to run it at full settings, but when you run it at full settings It looks like you are playing a movie the graphics are wow they are awesome and the nanosuit is just as awesome. When you play it on the Delta difficulty it is quite a challenge you have to cloak from tree to tree. Okay now I will tell you a bit about the beginning of the game, Your Captain's (leader of your squad) name is Phrophet and the other members of you squad are Phsyco, Aztec, Jester and you are Noman.
August 07 2020 You here a distress call from some people that the Koreans have discovered something that will change the world, but then before they could say what, there was screaming and shooting and then we lost the signal...
August 14 2020 Seven days later, You are in a plane on your way to the island where the transmission came from to go and Investigate, You are debriefed and told what to do while you are in the plane after being debriefed on what to do you all wait for the green light get ready for your first skydiving lesson, hope you enjoy it when your parachute fails to open :-0 (well look at the positive side they have a lot of faith in you to teach you that kind of stuff on the first lesson). After you crash land in the beautiful water with your multi-million dollar nanosuit that got a bit of a beating from the crash you must get ashore so you can get the nanosuit online, Once you reach dry land Phrophet will contact you and switch your nanosuit on and then he will tell you to go join up with Jester, After you reach Jester (who is stuck in the tree) Phrophet will contact you again to tell you that Jester and you must go get Aztec because he has lost contact with him, just as Phrophet is talking to you guys a communication comes in it is Aztec and he ses that he is not alone up here that their are four Koreans up here, Then all you can here is shouting and shooting and then you lose contact with Aztec so Phrophet ses you two must get to his location ASAP! After you get there, their are four dead Koreans and Aztec is dead to but it was not any of them that killed each other it was something else... Well thats it the game is finished now we must wait for Crysis 2... no man I'm just kidding if you want to know what happens next you'll have to buy the game and play it because it is well worth it.

Mafia 2 Review




First things first Mafia 2 does not continue with the story of Tommy Angelo, Because he is retired (dead). Mafia 2 takes place twenty years after the original, telling the story of ex-military man and small time crook Vito Scaletta, just before the end of World War II. This means that players now have a urban playground twice the size if Lost Heaven, twenty years of car advancements (sweet), and the chance to experience probably one of the most exciting times in the History of America.

The story starts of with Vito arriving back from the war after a mandatory term of service, following a blundered burglary. Joe Barbaro (his buddy) waits to pick him up from the train station. Determined to make it big, Vito and Joe team up to take on San-Francisco and New York, empire city mobster style. With the aid of already 'made man' Henry Tamasino, The three will embark on a journey of money,murder and mayhem (triple m not x), with missions raging from simple mugging and burglaries to elaborate assassinations. Vito is on a quest to move up the ranks in any of the three reigning families, in other words you'll have to perform various job's for the families to get the respect needed to make your way to being a 'made man' - not just a street thug.

In effort to make the game world more that much realistic, the developers have been hard at work creating systems that will truly bring the City to live. Citizens will have real activities to do: you could literally trail a random pedestrian, watch him or her go into a clothing store, make a purchase and head home. Windows will light up when the sun sets, drivers who have been in a collision will get out of their cars and, exchanging a few nasty words or insurance details.

Platforms: PC,XBOX and PS3
Release date: 2009
