Burnout 3 and Upcoming Games
Well, I can finally talk about Burnout 3. If there's one word that comes to mind when anyone says Burnout... it's definitely crash. Burnout has the most exhilirating crashes ever to meet the face of gaming. It's so intense and so realistic that I can't help but feel guilty for enjoying it as much as I do. Let's start with the basics...
Graphics: These are by far some of the most amazing graphics on the PS2... they are incredibly polished and ranked with games like God of War (great game btw), Need for Speed, and I'd even say Gran Turismo.
Sound: It sounds unbelievably realistic, and with the exception of the annoying radio announcer the games sound is perfect. The rock choices are good enough to keep me pumped up for a race.
Gameplay: Here is where the game shines. There are four main modes. Race, Road Rage, Crash, and Time Attack. Race is when you go for the finish line taking down enemies and driving dangerously. Road Rage is not about time or goal, you just take down as many enemies as you can before you get taken out. Crash is about causing the most damage in traffic and seeing just how much money your crash is worth. And time attack is simply beating a time limit on a track. Now, time attack is the weakest mode in the game, but all the other modes sport the best intense racing action ever to be created in a game. This game is unbelievably good, believe the hype.
Final Say: Go get this game!

Let's see, I'm excited for a couple of games.
I'll begin with Ultimate Spider-man. I love spider-man, and I really enjoy reading the Ultimate comic series. Ultimate Spider-man is just a fun read, and now there's a game coming out for it. It has crazy 3D inking technology that's similar to cel-shading, but a lot cleaner. This makes the whole game feel like playing the actual comic book. The swinging mechanics from the Spiderman 2 game are here and here's the great news. You get to play as venom. I can't wait!
Prince of Persia has been a great series. You know how I feel about Sands of Time. Warrior Within was a great game with an amazing fighting system that outdid Sands of Time on so many levels. However, the music and the storytelling was lost somewhere in the second installment. Which brings us to the third installment of POP. Kindred Blades is the working title and the three new features are chariot racing, stealth kills, and the Dark Prince. Chariot racing is self explanatory. Stealth kills: Don't let the name fool you, they're not slow at all. They're actually very quick one hit kill moves. And the Dark Prince is the prince's alter ego who brings up great moments in storytelling (as the prince will now be talking to his counterpart and vice-versa) and introduces the new Daggertail weapon which creates unique moves both in terms of combat and platforming. Should be good times!
Kingdom Hearts is an amazing game! I love disney and I loved the final fantasy series. This game is truly magical. The second installment features lots of cool things including new characters like mulan and jack sparrow from the pirates of the carribean, as well as new attacks, fusions and more. And the best part... the story sounds amazing so far. This one should be a real gem.
Other titles that have caught my interest are Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects (a new marvel vs. EA title that pits marvel's greatest superheroes against a band of nobodies called the imperfects), Matrix: Path of Neo, and Urban Reign (a current-gen street brawler: finally!)
