Left 4 Dead

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 07, 2009 | PC

A low-production value game for kids and run-n-gun lovers. It's a nice break from tactical shooters but that's about it.

First and foremost, this is only a half review but I don't think that makes much difference. In one line, Left 4 Dead is the most straightforward shooter I have ever played. Is it good? Partially. Tactical shooters are d... Read Full Review

Tomb Raider: Underworld

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 06, 2009 | X360

Like Legend? Like Underworld!

(The following review is based on the PC version which is identical with the X360 port, but looking even better, perhaps. I can't post it on the PC review board so...) Typically, Tomb Raider games carry very poor re... Read Full Review

Tomb Raider: Underworld

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 06, 2009 | PC

A worthy sequel to Legend that doesn't come without disappointment. As a TR game, it carries low replay value.

Typically, Tomb Raider games carry very poor replay values. Don't get me wrong because I do think Tomb Raider games are exceptionally enjoyable. What makes up to the one-time-fun ledge jumping and puzzle solving is the i... Read Full Review

Crysis Warhead

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 04, 2009 | PC

Successful expansion pack. Look down on the first.

Last year, Crysis broke quite a number of records in the PC gaming world. It set a new standard of graphics, physics and AI which made other titles seemingly diminished. In my review back then, I criticized Crysis for it... Read Full Review

Dead Space (2008)

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 02, 2009 | PC

Not innovative. If you played The Thing, you'll find the story terribly similar.

Dead Space is by no means a terrible game but it does demonstrate many shortcomings. What a surprise to me most people seem blind to the fact that Dead Space borrowed a lot of stuff from existing titles. From my point of... Read Full Review

Need for Speed Undercover

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 03, 2009 | X360

Crash, crash, crash until you get it by fortune

What do I mean by "Crash, Crash, Crash"? You really crash the cars a lot and I would just restart (if it's a takedown/ outrun/ highway battle). This NFS game features a bigger tri-cities network than Most Wanted and C... Read Full Review

Need for Speed: Carbon

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Dec 25, 2006 | PC

Carbon did not come close to Most Wanted

There are many player reviews out there so I am not going to recycle similar ideas over and over again. Carbon looks good visually. It was obvious to point out that a new engine of image had been used to produce this ... Read Full Review

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: May 11, 2010 | X360

Fun but short. Less humor and unique features - becoming another Modern Warfare...

I've just beaten Bad Company 2's single player on the second day of play. Wow, this game is really short. All flash and bang, no substance. It's a shame the world is less open than before. But still, it is an okay shoote... Read Full Review

Assassin's Creed II

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: May 01, 2010 | PC

-High production value with flaws<br /> -Too many puzzles, jumping and stealth<br /> -Dark and offensive story

The Assassin's Creed franchise is going to leave a mark in my memory forever because I have not seen a narrative as dark and menacing as this one. "Nothing is true, everything is permitted". Ah-oh, this creepy sense of w... Read Full Review

Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Apr 11, 2010 | PC

Hard enemies. Too many puzzles and death traps.

This review is very late. Jedi Outcast is now very outdated. Well I won't waste all day babbling about my gaming history so what's up? I wound up playing Jedi Outcast because its sequel Jedi Academy was a blast. I kin... Read Full Review

Aliens vs. Predator

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 26, 2010 | PC

Any AVP fan will gladly play it although it hasn't beaten the records.

Let Me Repeat AVP is a video game franchise long before the two thrilling movies (as of writing) in 1990s. Stop saying it is born from the movies. Funny Name "Stormtrooper effect" invades AVP! Ten years ago, you hav... Read Full Review

Gears of War

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Jul 30, 2007 | X360

Gears of War deserves its praises as one of the best action shooter.

There are more than 3500 player reviews out there so what more should I say? I bought the Gears of War included Xbox 360 bundle and I was pleased I got this game along with the console. The graphics. When you talk about... Read Full Review

About the same as the first

FIrst off I hate those fanboys who often rate over 9 for a game. That is pathetic. But they exist everywhere, which annoys me. What's nice: 1) Decent Graphics (More of the same from Vegas) 2) Good voice acting 3) O... Read Full Review

Godzilla: Destroy All Monsters Melee

By Ausutorarisu | Review Date: Feb 07, 2009 | XBOX

Yes, the atmosphere of Godzilla Destory All Monsters is less tense than any of DOA games, but it is good!

Being a fan of Godzilla, I kept an close eye on this game back in 2002. Lucily, I have no capital to buy the Gamecube version, then I got the Xbox version in June 2004. The graphics is amusing! My instincts say it is ... Read Full Review

It does well to please some people which happen not to be me. I prefer a think-free racer.

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

Unreachable Game Difficulties suffocates me. You may have come to the wrong place if you are looking for a kill.

Not really intended to write a technical review to cover all about the game, especially I could not beat the game yet. I agree GRAW is a very good title for benchmarking graphics card, CPU, staff like that but I have to... Read Full Review
