Oblivion
Nelson Hernandez III
Ask anybody who plays games what their favorite game is. You won’t get the same answer for the same two people. For me, and many other people, it’s the game “Oblivion”. This game is great. I mean it is just amazing. I can’t come to mention anything that could even possibly be bad about this particular game. Well, let me stop praising this and let me tell you about how great it is so that you can like it for yourself. First of all, the graphics are out of this world. When you play this game you feel like you’re really in the actual game! It has even won awards for it! On top of that, the overall game play is just spectacular. The controls are well suited the game, and it makes playing much easier. Besides the overall appearance of the game, there are plenty more things to cover. The actual storyline of the game is phenomenal. You play as a character that you have created who has been imprisoned for reasons unknown. Eventually you come into contact with the Emperor who happens to cross your path while trying to escape from a group of assassins who are trying to kill him. After fighting your way through the underground sewers of the prison, you eventually get to the end. However, along the way, the Emperor entrusts you to find is last surviving heir before he dies, which sends you on a great quest to bring safety to the land of Tamriel. This game also includes tons of side quests that you happen to find along your way. You also get to choose the kind of class that you will have. Wither it be a warrior, a wizard, or an archer, your abilities that you gain or buy help you along your way, or during battle. Not to long after its release, it came out with two new expansions of the game on a separate disk. They include “The Shivering Isles, which included an additional realm in the game that you can access from a portal in the middle of the ocean. In this realm, there are crazy things happening everywhere. From giant monsters attacking small villages, or insane inhabitants lost in their own mind, you will discover tons of new quests, items, and enemies to fight along your way to help and eventually become the Madgod of the realm. The second one included a new quest line called, “The Knights of the Nine”, were you start a pilgrimage after a massacre at a church to altars across the nation. Eventually, you gain all of the lost relics of the crusaders, and defeat the evil demon trying to destroy the universe.

The Orange Box
The Orange Box
This particular game took on a whole new aspect on video gaming. To people, this was a great idea. If you don’t know what The Orange Box is, it’s a single video game CD with three different games all by the same developer, called “Valve”. It contains “Portal”, were use the technology of a portal device to make your way through puzzle like levels. In “Team Fortress 2”, you play a series of team oriented games like capture the flag or king of the hill online with your friends or random people you don’t know. Lastly, in “Half Life 2”, you play as a man trying to escape from prison in a futuristic setting, and lead a rebellion against your enemies. It’s a very cool idea for a video, and incorporates new ideas that make the game so much better to play.

Nelson Hernandez III
Bioshock was released in 2007, and to this day is still one of the most popular games in existence. You play as a man lost at sea when his air plane crash lands, and find an entrance to an underwater city called Rapture. However, this city is not one you would want to visit anytime soon. This place is crawling with tons of nasty enemies. Things like Splicers, which are human in a physical form, but are deformed and have special abilities depending on what kind of Splicer you are facing. There are Little Sisters, which are guarded by giant genetically enhanced humans crafted to armor diving suits called “Big Daddys”. They protect the Little Sisters in hope of getting a genetic mutagen called Adam. Adam is used to upgrade genetic powers called Plasmids, which gives you an upper hand against enemies by using the powers you can gain from Plasmids like lightning, and fire. Plasmids aren’t your only weapons though. Along the way you will find an assortment of weapons from pistols to grenade launchers that you can upgrade to increase there abilities. Also there are tons of robots that you can hack to control and fight for you. Over the course of the game, you are guided by a man named Atlas who helps you survive the hazardous city of Rapture. There will be a new addition to the Bioshock frenchise soon were you play as a Big Daddy, so expect another reveiw soon.

Crackdown 2
Nelson Hernandez III
The new sequel to one of the number one hit games of all time is soon to be here! The original version of this game was about a small island with cities infested with gang members who terrorize citizens and break tons of laws. You played as a super agent sent to eliminate all authority and boss members in the gang. Only after you killed the bosses could you take down the entire gang. The city featured three extremely different gangs, and each one was harder than the next. You had to defeat the lesser gangs to eventually take out the main boss and clear the island for the law enforcements, and bring safety to all of the inhabitants.
