Episode 45!

game. Imagine the combat from Rogue squaron or Crimson skies, but in a fun Peanuts world. Graphics are clean and very peanutty. Art is a combo of cell shaded 3D stuff and actual 2D peanuts stuff The music is ok, but the VO is a bit lame. The actors are obviously not the same as from the cartoon show and it feels different. The gameplay is solid with a good mix of combat and flying. Missions are well varied from kill this to defend that! Buy this game. You WILL have fun.

Oddworld, Stranger’s wrath -

3rd person action game with FPS elements. In the same universe as previous Oddworlds games plays like many other action games. Bounty enemies for cash to upgrade and catch bigger/ badder emenies.

Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition - PS2

To start I have never played on of these before. I’ve seen the first one played, but never done it myself. This game as everybody knows is all about cool. This game covers cool, like a fat guy on a bicycle seat. Graphics are very nice for the PS2. FMVs are pretty and full of humour. The sound is well done, but the hard rock soundtrack is kind of annoying during the load screen… especially after you’ve died 3 or 4 times on a mission and it starts from the same spot. Gameplay is the same old DMC fair: You fight hordes of spooky baddies using swords and guns in a multitude of high flying combos. If you like 3rd person action (Final Fight updated) this is a great game. If you’re looking for a deeper story or something a bit more tactical this ain’t for you.
