After playing this game for around half an hour, I have come to the conclusion its a pile of steaming horse crap.
Please dont buy it without trying it first. It may appeal to some people but it could be a whole lot better.

I’m sure its been said many times, but Rockstar`s Red Dead Redemption is Grand Theft Auto IV in the wild west!
You play John Marston, an ex gang member who finds himself waking up in a small town after been shot by one of his ex gang mates. The first thing you notice about this game is the size of the play area. Although you have a map, you have to explore to locate new towns and areas. This is done mainly on horseback but there is also a train and taxi style stage coaches.
Just like GTA theres lots to do and you often get sidetracked playing mini games like poker, shooting bandits or hunting wild animals to skin them for their fur which can be sold at one of the many shops in the game.
This game really is fantastic and anyone who liked GTA will love it. There’s plenty to do to keep you busy for hours on end and that’s not including the main missions you have to complete also!
Now get off your horse and drink your milk!!
I`m not really sure why this game was released as a stand alone sequel to the first Street Fighter IV. The only differences are minor and could have easily been applied via down loadable content.
That said, its still Street Fighter and i`m sure all the hardcore fans will be buying this one to add to their collection.
Im sure many of you have already beat this game but I just wanted to say if you have a Wii, and havn`t tried this game you should!
I was perhaps getting a little too much into it, swinging away like a mad man.
They should make more games like this for the Wii instead of mainly aiming their games at familys and children.
Its a must buy!
Just got my hands on this game. I must admit, I have never really got into any of the Splinter Cell games but I like what I have seen so far.
There doesn`t seem to be as much emphasis on pure sneaking this time round, you can take enemies down anyway you like and the new execute move is pretty cool.
Take someone down with your bare hands and you are rewarded with an execute move. You can then target 2 enemies from the safety of cover and press the Y button. You then execute both enemies in a slow motion cinematic style. It looks as though the more you upgrade your weapons the more execute maneuvers you get but i`ll just have to wait and see.
The graphics look pretty good and the gameplay is great so if your a Splinter Cell fan i`m sure you will love it.
The best way to describe this game is GTA with James Bond gadgets.
First off I have to say how beautiful this game looks. The map looks amazing and it`s a joy to explore it. The sheer size of it will keep you busy for weeks never mind the missions that are thrown in too. There`s nothing like steeling a plane or helicopter and just looking around as you fly.
Just Cause 2 is also one of those games where you can play for hours on end without realizing you havn`t actually done anything. Just causing a bit of trouble and joyriding different vehicles is plenty to be getting on with.
There are some good missions in this game and you can tackle them which ever way you want. From what I have seen there are three different factions you can choose to work for and this will reward you with cash and unlockable weapons as well as the ability to get vehicles drop shipped in by helicopter.
The grappling hook has been upgraded for this sequel too. Not only can you grapple onto buildings and vehicles, but you can now tether two objects, or people together! There`s nothing funnier than grappling an armed guard to your car and then dragging him through the streets wild west style!
Try grappling someone to an up right gas canister and then shoot it. Hilarious.
Any vehicle you come across in this game can be driven or flown. Not going to spoil it too much but check out the major airports and get yourself something a little bigger 
Let me start by saying this game is totally amazing!
After initially playing the multiplayer demo on PS3, I wasn`t too impressed with the graphics. However, once you start playing, your hooked.
I can`t comment on the single player too much as I have only really played online but the couple or so levels I did play in single player mode were great with lots of fast paced action.
The online mode is the icing on the cake. I play mainly Rush although Conquest can be just as much fun with different maps to Rush.
There`s some great unlocks and gadgets to collect as well as dog tags for stabbing enemies and pins for completing achievements.
I for one am totally hooked on this game and havn`t put Modern Warfare 2 into my console since Bad Company 2`s release!
Check out the video below of the superb destruction engine….
Got my hands on this game today and i`m sorry to say I dont like it at all.
I am going to persevere with it because I am sure it will get better but at the moment it`s really slow and boring.
One thing that really really annoys me is the stats screen which appears after every single battle. There`s just no need! for it!
Fingers crossed once you start to get the better abilities the game will start to become more interesting. Here`s hoping

Got the multi player demo off the Playstation Network last week sometime and finally got a game the other day. Wasn`t that impressed with the demo until I played the single player on Xbox 360. This game is kind of funny and gruesome at the same time.
The online multiplayer demo suddenley seemd a lot better once i`d played the single player and learnt the controls!
I have only played the Predator missions so far and cannot decide whether to play as Marine or Alien next.
