I heard of this a few years ago, it sounded
insane with a samurai dude in the Wild West and that intro
music was awesome lmao, there is also a PlayStation 2 game similar to
this that I want to play too. This is the only game I
can't play on PlayStation 2
because it's larger than my original disc eh and the
emulator doesn't work, I had it on my PlayStation Portable but I
wasn't sure about playing there because of the controls so
it was time to use the PlayStation
3 again. This dude Johnny got defeated and
was found by his dad's Japanese friend and he went back
with him to Japan and learned the samurai way lol,
wielding a katana in one hand and a gun in another. You
get a really detailed training thank god, some of the
moves were crazy like hitting back ranged attacks or using
the sword like a helicopter for long jumps lol. The camera
fucking sucks but you can lock on to enemies and if you
attack it will always land on them. You have a bunch of
different special attacks like charge, sweep or somersault
but you gotta press the direction button combo first
before the attack button. The gun isn't as powerful as the
katana and you can't move while you fire, but it has a
special attack too that fires really fast. These all need
energy from your blue bar but it slowly recharges. There
are finisher moves too where you gotta press all the
fucking buttons lmao then keep attacking as much as you
can before the time runs out and you get a rank too but I
was so fucking slow I almost always got the worst one eh.
You also have to do that for those stupid all button
events like when a giant fucking bomb lands on you lmao
and you need to fill up a bar in time but I could barely
do it eh at least you won't die just lose some health. So
the area you're from was overrun by this evil Japanese
group lol what are they even doing there, they have these
straw man enemies lmao, ninjas, sumo wrestlers etc and so
many crazy bosses and they all speak some gibberish
Japanese. The dude calls himself Super Ultra Sexy Hero Zan
lmao and he gets offended when people recognize him and
call him by his real name (lol at the sheriff chick
wearing a bikini with a star on her top). Levels can be
quite long so I only played one per day. They have a lot
of wacky machines, like you get fired out of cannon lol,
there are flamethrower machines to jump over, moving
platforms to jump on so it ain't just fighting. Sometimes
there are timed segments but they were almost impossible
eh. There are cowboys too you can rescue and they're only
wearing underwear and a hat lmao. You can find pickups in
crates, health is Japanese food or American fast food
lmao, you can get special bullets for you gun and spirit
balls, the blue increases the special attack bar I guess
and the red gives you extra life if you die. If you got
enough kills you can get into Hustle Time which makes your
sword really long and you fight really fast and your
special attacks don't cost energy, you can press the
button 3 times if you have all three levels of it to make
it last longer. Besides your town there are a bunch of
stupid locations like a moving train with tons of traps
and timed shit and a robot boss, you ride a minecart in a
goldmine lol, a Japanese theater whith plays (one of them
is with your impostor lol), sometimes with stupid tasks
like playing baseball with your sword lol or that fucking
slot machine god it took forever. But god the controls
were terrible, you can't use the analog stick and the
D-pad at the same time and movement is awful with the
D-pad and the combos are impossible with the analog stick.
And I'm not kidding this game has by far the worst camera
I've ever seen in a game, it took me so many tries to
complete levels and by the last 2 it was literally
impossible with how fucking dumb and slow I am, my brain
couldn't even register the enemy attacks to block them,
but the combos sometimes felt impossible to do like they
weren't even registering correctly. So I fucking had
enough of this shit and just looked up how to use
GameShark and finished the last 2 levels with cheats, it
fucked up the music though but whatever. You can unlock a
new character who is your master's daughter and she has a
different play style, and stupid shit like an underwear
costume for Zan lol. It's another game I couldn't enjoy
because I'm too fucking retarded for this shit but even
with that the camera was fucking awful, it's a shame
because it would have been a really cool game. |

Robert Ludlum's The
Bourne Conspiracy (PlayStation
3) Developer: High Moon Studios Publisher: Vivendi Games Released: 2008 Genre: Action, third-person shooter, stealth |
![]() |
I finally watched the first two movies last
year, they were pretty cool I love this spy shit so I
might watch the third one this year. Because of the name I
thought this game is based on the book but apparently it's
based on the movie but you play through some of his past
missions too he doesn't remember that apparently they made
up for the game. Either way Matt Damon didn't want to add
his face and voice because he wanted it to be like Myst
lmao what a moron how the fuck would that even work for a
Bourne game, well at least the chick is voiced by the
actress but her character looks different too. It needed
an almost 5 GB install wtf is with this console lol. You
start in France and just walking around some street, it
looks really cool. The collectibles are passports you can
find, you need to find all of them on a level to unlock
concept arts, music, cutscenes, and to replay boss fights
too I guess. You have this thing called Bourne Instinct
which is like that eagle shit in Assassin's Creed
lol to see targets, items or objectives. It costs
adrenaline, when one tier charges up you can perform a
takedown with a QTE which is insta kill, if you have more
you can take down multiple enemies (3 max as that's the
most tiers you can have). There are a lot of melee
fighting, you can punch and kick and they have stronger
versions too. Luckily there is regenerating health because
I fucking sucked at the combat lol (but you can change the
difficulty even if you load up checkpoint after quiting
huh), sprint is with R2 which means fucking R1 shooting eh
and you can perform a running takedown when you sprint but
I could barely ever do it lol, there is also sneak
takedown when you are behind the enemies and they haven't
noticed you. It has Gears of War cover mechanics
lol and you can do shooting takedowns too. Sometimes there
is a time limit too and there are some interactive
cutscenes with QTEs so you can never relax lol. Boss
battles are melee fighting only, you can use the
environment with takedowns but they aren't instakill here,
but there are so many random QTE parts like literally
every couple seconds Jesus. The first couple missions are
about that black dude he was supposed to assassinate, how
he got on the boat and shit, then you see cutscenes that
were in the movie like he goes to Switzerland sleeping on
the bench then he gets another flashback of a mission that
happened in Switzerland. Then the embassy movie scene,
after that you go to Paris and play through that fight in
your apartment, and as you look at a Lithuanian passport
you get another flashback mission that took place there.
In Paris there is a driving mission too lol, this has
adrenaline too to slow things down for a moment but I
didn't like how the car handled. You fight that dude in
the farm too and there is another flashback mission in
Paris in a museum with interesting art lol I liked looking
at it, but I fucking missed the last passport at the very
end fuck off. Things were all a bit different compared to
the movie but the end very much so as the final boss here
is the assassin who killed your boss. It has built in
accomplishments like Dark Sector lol and you
unlock cheats after beating the game, I think I unlocked
everything I missed with them (I wish it had making of
videos but I found the ancient YouTube channel of the
studio and they had some videos there). It was alright but
it had too much QTE shit and the boss battles were
annoying and it had some brutal slowdowns eh but it's a
cool game, the movie is much better though. |

Haze (PlayStation 3) Developer: Free Radical Design Publisher: Ubisoft Released: 2008 Genre: First-person shooter |
![]() |
Aka the Halo killer lmao. I never
even heard of it until late 2010s, all these FPS games
Sony tried to make to compete with Halo like Killzone,
Resistance and this one I didn't even know they
exist lol I guess that shows how impactful they were but I
knew nothing about PlayStation 3
games at all, I paid zero attention to them. This was made
by the TimeSplitters devs and those games suck lol
but they also made Second Sight which was cool so
maybe TimeSplitters: Future Perfect will be good,
I will find out soon. It has plenty of controller settings
thank god cause the default was retarded R1 shooting. So
this Mantel corporation has an army cause national armies
are no more and only these mercenary corporations exist,
they use this drug called Nectar to boost soldiers'
abilities, you have 6 packs and gotta administer it but
they recharge and you can take it from other soldiers too,
it makes enemies bright yellow to easily see them, your
melee attacks become more powerful, you're more resistant
to damage (you have regenerating health btw), and it adds
a danger indicator for exploding shit. You can overdose
too lmao if you administer it above the bar, allied
soldiers do that too sometimes and go crazy and start
shooting at everything then kill themselves damn, Nectar
grenades can overdose you too lol and you lose control
over your shooting when it happens. Everything is yellow
and shit with beehive aesthetics lmao, the graphics look
ok but nothing special but holy shit the texture loading
was so fucking slow when you load up a save. So you're
being sent to South America to deal with a militia
supposedly led by an insane dude who wears the skin of his
enemies as coat lmao. Your soldiers are like dudebro
parodies lmao but not the cool ones from Gears of War,
they were so bad lol. Corpses are disappearing after a few
seconds so it might seems like shit but then you realize
it's the Nectar doing that, you don't see any blood for
the same reason too. Sometimes it's malfunctioning and you
start seeing reality, blood and corpses littered
everywhere and you hear the screaming, when it gets
damaged you hallucinate too. There are vehicle sections
too, they clearly wanted to ape Halo lol, there
are a lot of huge open levels too (it has a beach too
lol), just tons of vehicle sections but they're just not
fun here thanks to the shitty handling and controls (fuck
those canyons where you avoid explosives). When you or you
vehicle is on fire you gotta shake that fucking controller
motion shit to put out flames lol but the fire and smoke
look so bad. At some point you capture the leader and
actually join the rebels after you revolt and your plane
crashes, then you see things normally, how your former
allies have fucked up skin and eyes from the drug. The
rebels have different abilities too, you can steal guns
after a melee attack, pretend to be dead by dropping to
the ground as they can't see you that way because of the
drug, you can create Nectar grenades from dead enemies,
scavenge ammo from different type of weapons, put down
grenades as land mines, roll away with double tapping X
and you can revive rebel soldiers too. They have different
vehicles too like that buggy which looks straight out of Halo
3 lol and their own weapons of course, like you have
a knife dipped in Nectar lmao. But you can't have the
benefits of the drug anymore so no bright enemies and shit
eh. There are some fucked up moments though like when you
find crates of Mantel soldiers dead from the drug damn, or
when they commit mass suicide after you take out the
Nectar command lmao. Also lol at the similarities between
the two factions near the end, they really wanted to make
you think about war and how power can corrupt you and
justify what you do but they didn't really do a good job
with it, it just ends up being lame as fuck. It actually
has bots for offline multiplayer wtf I had no idea I just
randomly found out as I checked the menu so I guess will
keep it, I downloaded the DLC maps too lol. So it's just
ok, it's an average shooter that's obviously nowhere near
close to Halo lol. |

Mercenaries:
Playground of Destruction (Xbox) Developer: Pandemic Studios Publisher: LucasArts Released: 2005 Genre: Action-adventure |
![]() |
I think I heard of this in the 2000s, it's
another game form my beloved Pandemic Studios and
essentially a Grand Theft Auto in a warzone which
sounded awesome so I always wanted to play it, it was one
of the first games I put on my HDD when I upgraded it.
Getting ready to play it felt overwhelming though there's
so much shit in the manual and in the strategy guide. The
story is Korea is almost united, but the North Korean
dictator is killed by his evil son who then builds nukes
so the allies invade to stop them and they put a bounty on
his head so you arrive there as a mercenary. There are
different factions besides the allies, South Korea, China,
and the Russki mafia and you work for them too. You can
choose from 3 characters, I went with the black dude cause
he has more health, the Asian chick is stealthier and the
Swedish dude is the fastest, they all speak different
languages too that can help with factions. Besides the
dictator there is also the Deck of 52, which are like
poker cards assigned to other targets like officers,
scientists and shit like that and you can find the
numbered ones on the map and you also get intel to where
to find them from doing faction contracts aka missions.
There are 4 chapters (2 in the south and 2 in the northern
province) and each has 13 cards, every faction has 3
contracts and the first two always gives you intel while
in the last ones your objective is to go after a face
card, while the allies' third one is always the Ace
contract. You can either kill or capture them, capturing
pays more but you have to call a helicopter and it can be
shot down so it's harder to do. You slowly get more intel
as you deal with them and when it reaches a certain amount
you get the Ace contract but that means if you haven't
finished all allied contracts they'll be gone so it makes
sense to start with those, you also don't have to get all
the cards but I still captured all of them. Contracts can
be simple like killing someone, destroying or capturing
shit but there are some different ones like driving around
a journalist lol, and sometimes they have bonus objectives
which usually unlock shit for you to use. Cause that's the
main gimmick of the game, you can order so much stuff and
use them for missions or just to fuck around, like all
kinds of vehicles, crates like health and ammo, bunch of
airstrikes, artillery, laser designated missiles, so much
shit lmao and sometimes you get them for free during
contracts. You can order them from the Merchant Shop which
is like an online store operated by the Russian mafia
lmao, you can access it from your PDA where you can also
read your emails and view the map and check the cards and
the factions status. Factions actually fight each others
and a lot of contracts involve destroying their base or
killing their soldiers which of course fucks up your
status and if it goes down to hostile they'll fire at you
lol and you need to bribe them if you want to continue
doing missions for them eh. You can disguise yourself by
driving a faction's vehicle but officers will notice you
or when you damage them, you can also honk and soldiers
will hop in the car and man the turret or travel with you.
The vehicle controls are weird though, why can't I use the
right trigger for gas eh it makes it impossible to use the
camera with A, at least bigger vehicles have normal
controls but they all have awful physics, I kept falling
over or got stuck in everything. There are helicopters too
and you can pick up cargo with them and can hijack them if
they fly low lol. There are cities of course but they
aren't very big but you can destroy every building which
is cool, the graphics would be fine but the draw distance
is limited with a bad fog eh. There are civilians too but
if you kill them you will lose a lot of money and faction
status. Besides contracts there are also challenges which
are like vehicles and you gotta drive somewhere in time or
talk to someone and destroy a certain amount of vehicles,
simple shit like that. The collectibles are blueprints
(with some stupid shit like Episode VII screenplay lmao or
Death Star plans), national treasures, and monuments and
listening posts you need to destroy, they increase a
certain faction's status and can unlock new items and
cheats too (like there is a cheat crate with portable
airstrike lol). I tried to collect everything and do all
challenges but I had enough because it's such a slow game
it takes fucking forever and I've always wanted to play
the next game and I needed enough time before the heat
starts. It's bad enough that some of the fucking cards
were in such a bullshit place too, by the last chapter I
realized I could slowly chase them out disguised as North
Korean lmao and capture them without a million fucking
tanks and shit firing at me. And holy fuck the final
mission, it was so insanely impossible I just had to cheat
because I would have never finished it. You're supposed to
get different endings based on which faction had the
highest status, I wanted South Korea because I want them
to unite so I killed some other factions lol and it's
fucking nothing eh just a few seconds of clip with a
different line, what a fucking joke. Oh and you can't even
go back after the credits to continue playing, great.
Honestly it was disappointing I expected something great,
the contracts were fun but hunting for cards and shit was
awful and you only get good vehicles by the end eh, it
felt empty and way too long and frustrating, but it's
still a good game though. |

T'ai Fu: Wrath of
the Tiger (PlayStation) Developer: DreamWorks Interactive Publisher: Activision Released: 1999 Genre: Action, platformer |
![]() |
I actually tried to play this last summer
on my PlayStation Portable
cause I thought it would be the perfect game for it but
it's broken there, the emulator on PlayStation
2 doesn't work either and it's the kind of
game I would never burn a disc for. But this is where the
PlayStation 3 comes in
handy as it works there, so between these 3 I could play
everything lol, I heard you can upscale it to HD and turn
on smoothing and shit but that means more input lag so
nope thanks. I think I heard of it a few years ago in that
old console magazine, the reason why it was noticable
cause it's literally Kung Fu Panda from DreamWorks like a
decade earlier with the same producer or someone like that
who worked on both of them lmao (never seen that though I
was too old when it came out). The story is this last evil
dragon wants to take over China and he destroys the tiger
clan and you play as T'ai Fu who is the last survivor and
you journey through China to take revenge. And damn it
looks awful on LED TV eh, so I tried it with the PlayStation 2 cable on my CRT
TV and it was so much better lol even though it's 480i not
240p. It's kinda isometric though eh or shows it from the
side, you can't move the camera so it auto gives the angle
it thinks it's the best. There are jade pieces to pick up
and you get a life after 100 of them and after every 25
enemies you killed too, and of course there are life
pickups as a tiger symbol and health sometimes too thank
god, and invisibility or invincibility scrolls while the
gold coin is where you end the level, most of them were
short enough and linear with a few checkpoints. You can
only save after levels and he walks through the world map
to get to the next level but you can't go back to replay
them or pick a different one. Levels are like cliffs and
hills, temples and fortresses, and they have tons of
platforming but jumping sucks, you gotta jump at like the
very last pixel to make it eh, also there are jumping pads
to jump higher places, but the 3D here is so weird and the
camera angles can be so bad that I kept jumping to the
wrong places, and with all those fucking spike pits and
chasms in some places it was a nightmare. Well at least
you can pick up and throw down enemies too, the combat
seems easy first but as you journey through China you meet
new clans and you learn their moves, like dashing and
bigger jumps from leopards, rolling move from monkeys
(they live in an Ewok style village lol), hovering from
cranes, and obviously you gotta use these moves to
progress but this is when the game stopped being fun and
turned into a frustrating mess because of the god awful
jumping sections. The worst thing is sometimes it doesn't
even register a lot of the moves correctly so I also died
a lot because of that shit. There are boss fights too
usually with the clan leaders (the monkey boss is like a
drunken master lmao), after the first one you learn chi
attack which is like magic and it makes the combat
somewhat easier, you can power it up by doing combos or
energy pickups, and there are different elemental scrolls
that change it like earth, fire, water etc. I genuinely
started hating this piece of fucking shit game around the
harbor level, those boar clan levels were even worse, but
the entire fucking console crashed on the brutal last
level lmao fuck off, apparently because of the emulator
and I found out there is another one you can switch to lol
how the fuck this works, it played with that one fine. But
fuck the final boss my god, it took me two days to beat
that shit. You get concept arts during the end credits but
that's it, the first half was too simple and the second
half just fucking ruined the entire game with the insane
jumps and enemies, seriously fuck this game. |

Dark Sector
(PlayStation 3) Developer: Digital Extremes Publisher: D3 Publisher Released: 2008 Genre: Third-person shooter |
![]() |
I heard of this a few years ago, I thought
about playing it on Xbox
360 but the reviews
didn't really satisfy me and I thought that throwing
weapon would be annoying. Some agent is sent to this
Russki shithole where a virus broke out and the agency
scientist there went insane and didn't come back so you're
there to eliminate him. It has fucking R1 shooting you
can't change fuck off and as usual the aiming sucks
because of the controller. The first level was black and
white huh cool and the dude is wearing a mask so you can't
see how he looks at first, but it quickly became obvious
that this game is literally Gears of War lmao,
same camera, same controls, sprinting is the same, the way
he takes cover and vaults over it lmao, you gotta pick up
weapons and ammo mannually too, even the locations look
similar too with the same color palette. You can't blind
fire out of cover though and you can only carry 2 weapons,
a pistol or a machine gun, shotgun, sniper, RPG etc and
you can shoot grenades in the air to kill soldiers lol.
Some armored mutant thing shows up, the armor has similar
aesthethics as Warframe (I actually played that
game when it came out for like a few hours before it bored
me to death) and you get infected and that's when the game
gets color, your right arm is all fucked up and some
glaive materializes in it lol. Enemy weapons have a lock
so after you get infected you can only use them for a few
seconds before they stop working, but mostly you're gonna
use the glaive after that (I got so used to it that I
forgot I could just kill distant enemies with my rifle
lmao). You can decapitate them lol or cut limbs off and
they scream like crazy lmao, you can use a pistol at the
same time too but two handed weapons dematerialize it. You
can charge up the glaive with different energies,
electricity, ice, fire and use it to open doors and shit
and kill enemies, put out fire, freeze water, lots of cool
shit you can do. You get abilities too as they slowly
activate, Steal can bring items and weapons to you with
the glaive, Power Throw is obvious lol it's stronger,
After Touch can control it slow motion after you throw it
like in Heavenly Sword, Shield you can activate and it
deflects bullets too, Energy Pulse explodes the glaive
when it's charged with energy and Shift makes you
invisible. You can find money and hidden weapon upgrades
which you can use in the black market at these manholes,
you can add upgrades like more firepower or ammo but you
need to find those specific upgrades they aren't just
generic points, and can also buy or sell and store weapons
there too. You aren't just fighting soldiers, this virus
turned most people into zombies but somehow you're immune
to it, you see these yellow bags everywhere which I assume
are filled with corpses lol cool. Later there are some
advanced zombies too that can fire at you and big armored
soldiers, and fucking Russki walking mechs lol cool, you
even hijack it once for a ride lmao nice, it can fire
flares to distract rockets firing at you. There is melee
combat too but mostly I just used the finisher move when
the enemy is stunned or hasn't noticed you yet. You often
have to use the glaive to reach places you can't get to,
activate switches and shit, and there is this black goo
around some places you need to destroy with fire to
progress. You get that Warframe armor later lmao,
you take less damage and health recovers faster, it
protects against gas grenades too and you can pick up the
armored dudes' minigun. There are boss fights with giant
monsters lol but there are no checkpoints between their
stages eh, the final boss inside that vault (Akira and F.E.A.R.
vibes) was the easiest lol. It had multiplayer but online
only so who cares, and there are no unlockables eh, it has
built in achievements though called entitlements lol but
no trophies. Yeah it was cool, another Gears of War
clone just without a great story, it would have been fine
on Xbox 360 too I guess. |

Syphon Filter 3
(PlayStation) Developer: Sony Bend Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment Released: 2001 Genre: Third-person shooter |
![]() |
I wanted to burn this on CD and wait till
the end of the year to play it, but the next PlayStation 2 game was .hack//OUTBREAK
and it's too soon to play it plus I wouldn't finish it
before summer so I decided to spend the remaining time
playing PlayStation
games. I found out some South American made a bunch of
patches to POPStarter games to fix their issues so I
decided to test it with this one cause based on what I
read it's more like a best of with random missions than a
proper sequel (well that wasn't exactly true). I rewatched
the cutscenes of Syphon Filter 2 and read the plot
of the first one again, man these games have such a
complicated story. The menu is still the same lol and
there are still no subtitles eh but they finally added CGI
cutscenes, this takes place soon after the second game too
lmao, there is a Senate hearing and you play through of
their confessions and retellings of what lead to this, how
they got in the agency, how they're trying to stop the
virus etc. Like they went to Japan to kill that Chinese
general who wanted to buy the virus in Syphon Filter 2
(Gabe is wearing white suit lol) or you play the Costa
Rica mission that you only saw in the first game's intro
(which ends on a plane and you gotta shoot armored Rhoemer
out lol kinda like a boss fight but short). I guess the
graphics look better especially the faces but it's hard to
tell with these games, but I feel like the framerate is
better, everything just feels smoother especially the
aiming, but holy hell it's still hard I could barely do
the first sniping segment. There are some new things
though like these bonus tasks you can accomplish that
aren't objectives like saving someone before he gets shot
and he gives you a weapon or unlocks a map in multiplayer,
you can use a mine detector sometimes, a weapon that fires
through walls and you can see through them with the scope
huh cool, and I think that's about it for new stuff lmao
it still feels like you are playing the same game. You can
save and quit at checkpoints, but I think Syphon
Filter 2 had that too I'm not sure, but when I
loaded a checkpoint it was broken, Lian kept dying and
enemies didn't appear so I restarted the mission then it
worked, then some other checkpoint didn't spawn the
enemies correctly, and the game still like froze for a
second sometimes or the audio was a bit late, so much for
this shitty fix it literally only fixes game breaking bugs
that prevents you from playing the game eh, never falling
for this shit again. So it kinda randomly switches between
characters, like that African dude from the second game
telling how he got involved with the agency freeing slaves
from a gold mine and riding a minecart lol. Or what Lian
was doing in Kabul when working for China to stop the
Soviet occupation (it's cool to see that location, I would
love to see the ancient ruins of Bactria but those fucking
religious lunatics ruined that country forever), how she
met Gabe when he was just a soldier (and I guess that
Russki general), or she gives her perspective of the Costa
Rica mission where she was in an ancient temple. Or how
Gabe met his agency boss in Afghanistan fighting Afghan
rebels in the Soviet era (Jesus fuck that canyon part it
was insane). While someone testifies someone else is
actually on a few missions, Gabe is with MI6 in Ireland
trying to destroy a ship with a shipment of the virus then
trucks loaded with them and find out who is behind the
agency, or Lian following the evidence they found and goes
to the Australian Outback where the virus is being tested
and manufactured. That other chick who died in the
previous game is actually still alive and you play through
her ATF memories, how she met Gabe in a Ruby Ridge sort of
situation with a crashed satellite in a snowy forest and a
compound (I love these levels even though they were hard,
it's the kind of conspiracy thing I talked about after the
first game, militias thinking the government's gonna get
them lol instead we have retarded boomers now who OD on
Russki propaganda eh). As you can tell the problem is it's
all over the place without a coherent story and a lot of
times just feels like random flashbacks, but that doesn't
make the levels badly designed and it's still a good game.
Also lmao at how the hearing ends, you end up chasing Mara
through a subway car and headshot her with that X-ray
sniper (she doesn't die of course lol), Gabe becomes the
agency chief, but that credits cutscene shows it's not the
end of the virus. There's a new game mode though called
Mini Game which is basically challenges, Assassin is kill
targets without detection, Thief is steal a briefcase and
return it without detection, Elimination is just kill all
enemies, Demolition is like the subway in the first game
when you find bombs and escort and protect the bomb
diffuser, and Biathlon I didn't even unlock apparently you
can only fire from specific positions. You can select the
difficulty here but you gotta complete them before
unlocking the next difficulty, and have characters like a
bag lady lmao or Chance in armor, and the maps you
unlocked are from the previous games. I only cared for
Elimination cause it's like multiplayer with bots, I might
keep the game for that, most of the others had time limits
or just sucked. Yeah honestly it's cool and all but the
lack of coherent story doesn't make it that good even
though the gameplay and levels are probably the best here
and maybe the least frustrating too, but it's really like
one game in three lmao they all play and feel the same.
The next game is on PlayStation 2
but I heard the controls are the same with lockon wtf. |

Lost: The Video
Game (PlayStation 3) Developer: Ubisoft Montreal Publisher: Ubisoft Released: 2008 Genre: Action-adventure |
![]() |
Also known as Lost: Via Domus
outside the civilized world. I loved the show, well the
first 2 seasons anyway, the 3rd was just ok and the rest
was fucking teribble and ruined everything, they killed
all the mystery with a bunch of bullshit explanations, the
creators clearly had no idea what to do. I wanted to play
this game too lol on PC
cause I kept seeing it in stores but I just assumed it's
shit. It starts just like the series, he plane breaks half
then the show's intro starts nice, you are playing as some
amnesiac dude they created for the game and you wake up in
the jungle. The graphics look fine and the music is from
the show so it's great. So you are walking through the
jungle (which is actually very linear), following Vincent
the dog lol to lead you to the beach where the crash site
is, and you can talk to the characters from the show (most
of them are not voiced by their actors but they look like
them at least), they have different topics like quest,
general questions, and you can trade with some of them too
with the items you pick up which are mostly fruits or
water bottles lol. Some conversations and items can
trigger a flashback scene, you see a torn up photo and
need to take a pic with your camera at the right moment
when it happens to remember, you can then walk around and
interact with items inside the memory to remember more
details. There are also these fuse panel puzzles that you
need solve a bunch of times, you gotta add fuses and
rotate them to get the right voltage, it would've been a
nightmare without a guide for a retard like me lol. The
chapters end like an episode of the show, and when the
next starts you get a Previously on Lost recap too lmao so
cool. You play through the first 2 seasons of the show
thank god but some places and characters show up from
season 3 too. You navigate through the jungle to reach
other areas by interacting with stuff that points to next
the location, first it's the debris, later by Locke's
markings on the trees then by following a compass.
Sometimes you gotta hide from the Smoke Monster too in the
trees (which they fucking ruined in the show with a
fucking retarded explanation, it's clearly not what it was
supposed to be) and there are some on-rails segments too
where you run away from it ducking and jumping over shit,
and The Others are also in the game and they can be
shooting at you too from trees (who they also ruined, they
should have stayed these insane evil people instead of
just a bunch of idiots living in a small town). There are
dark areas like caves where you need a light source like
torches to get through, they have a bar that slowly
depletes and water and bats can put it out so you need to
extinguish it for a moment or else you'll lose most of the
bar and then you're fucked. You can find so many shit from
the show, the corpse of the polar bear lol, the hatch, you
can find the famous numbers on the beach like on a crate
or debris and if you examine them in order you'll be
teleported to the medical station, you will go inside the
Swan station omg that was my favorite thing about the
series, I would have loved to live there lol (it's insane
but my dream is to live in a bunker lmao), you gotta enter
the numbers too man so cool. You can find the van too and
go to the Black Rock ship for dynamite and you can't run
with it so avoiding the fucking Smoke Monster was a
nightmare. You need to buy a gun too but I barely ever use
it, and you have to do some fucking IQ tests on those old
computers wtf lmao thank god for guides, you also find a
station that wasn't in the series with a giant generator.
And there is the Pearl station you can go to with some
hidden object interaction, the Flame station with the one
eyed Russki, and the Hydra station. So basically the end
is like another attempt to capture Jack before the end of
season 2 and they would let you leave but you save him and
steal the boat. By that time you found out you were a
reporter investigating some criminal and your girlfriend
died because of you, but when the ending happens you wake
up again after the crash and she is alive and there with
you lmao wtf was that. The unlockables are concept arts
and you get them by taking photos but they were kinda lame
eh. You know what, I know it's not good on a technical
level but fuck it I could walk around my favorite
locations and it felt like I'm in the show so I liked it. |
