Hello everyone:D
Just thought I'd write a new blog before the world ends:P
And I didn't talk so much about my new games in the previous blog, so this one will be a big update on my gaming life, which had some surprises in the last days :p
First, I have played all of my new games except for RDR. I started Resident Evil 4: WE and Uncharted 2 but didn't get far in them, I think both have quality to be in the top games for their respective consoles and I plan to enjoy them more this year (as long as the world doesn't end today).
I've also been playing three fighting games: Super Street Fighter IV 3D, Mortal Kombat (X360) and Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (PS3). All of them are good, no doubt the year has started strong for one of my favorite genres, but I think all of them have their pros and cons. This is how I rank them and what I think of them so far:
1st. SSFIV3D - Impressive 3D visuals, a variety of fun game modes, includes the best SF characters and stages, it's hard to tap the screen while playing:x
2nd. MvC3 - Exciting team battles, simple to play for everyone, has the greatest characters from both universes, not as fun and addictive as Street Fighter.
3rd. MK - Outstanding graphics and sound, lots of features, cool moves for every fighter, not my favorite fighting styIe, can get extremely difficult.
Now if there was a Soul calibur on 3DS... :P
In other news, I beat God of War!8) First time I finish a game in a while so I'm proud of it, though I could not complete it 100% but at least the main story so now I can begin God of War 2. It was also one of the best games I have ever played and my favorite on a PS system, but that can still change with the sequel or Uncharted 2. Only time will tell...
And as you may know, I got a Nintendo 3DS some weeks ago. Perhaps the most revolutionary handheld system made by Nintendo, and now I got to experience the greatness of its features and games. I bought it along with two games, Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D and Super Street Fighter IV: 3D. But first I will talk about the system, which is amazing. Even though the 3D is not exactly as I expected, it still looks cool giving it a wonderful effect and making the games' graphics even better. Other characteristics are quite interesting like the two cameras, Mii creator and the fact that there's only one friend code per system. I am also loving the AR Games, it is incredible how one simple card can provide so much fun xD As for the games, PES 2011 is just what you can expect from a futbol game and a good start in this handheld. The champions league is surely its best feature, it feels like you are actually watching a real CL game, and winning it will be a challenge in any difficulty (except maybe the easiest one). But being honest I don't think PES will ever be better than FIFA, but this game does the job well until FIFA 12 comes out. SSFIV, as I stated above, is a superb fighting title and totally recommendable to anyone with a 3DS.
And now that I left clear my opinion on the 3DS, time to talk about an iPhone/iPad game!:D Infinity Blade that got a big update this week and is now at its max potential. They have added online multiplayer, survivor mode and tons of new content for the story mode. Really if you don't have this game yet, get it! It's a fantastic RPG with the best graphics on iOS, and I believe it's on sale for a limited time. And if you have it and wanna play online, pm me. I'm not so good at it but I try:P Also in this game, I recently got the Infinity Blade (the sword) and am making a lot of progress, it is one of my favorite iPad games, but it has a little problem, it eventually crashes and takes me out of the app after some battles, making me unable to get the golds that appear in cutscenes =( but idk if this happens to everyone or if it's just me.
One more thing, yesterday I saw some new details of FIFA 12 and it looks very promising. It will improve a lot in gameplay, but I still want to see new stuff like national teams in manager mode to make it the best game in the franchise.
With this and other games, my wishlist for 2011 is growing a lot, can't wait for E3 to see more about them:D
Sorry if this blog was long, but it may be the last one I do... jk. Thanks for reading and leave a comment if you want.
