Shrek the Third review

Posted : 2 years ago on 31 October 2007 05:24 (A review of Shrek the Third)

Boring, slow, easy, clumsy and dodgy graphics basically sum it up for me. It seems to me that it wasn't as well made as the first one and also there were some changes. This one you can not go from character to character during game play, rather the character is chosen for you so you still get to play different characters just not by choice. Also there are quests during the game and a shop where you can buy lots of silly outfits for Shrek to wear. So yes, boring and short for adults.

For kids on the other hand, going by what a 9 year old said, "It's cool". Still easy but fun and a good thing about it, and if the kid playing it isn't impatient, is that it has pop up information on what the character should do and what the buttons do. Good for kids at that age where they are willing to read it all.

TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 6 June 2007 01:58 (A review of TMNT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)

I've found this so far to be more on the frustrating side then anything. The moves seem to be a bit skittish and/or clumsy at times. I can't quite figure out if that's because there are too many special moves or if it's just the game play. I have also noticed that there is a lot of jumping involved. A LOT. It feels as though for some stages it's all you're doing and the fight scenes can become a little repetitous. The graphics are alright although not as smooth as I would like them to be and there are some cool little moves that would entertain the kids going by my nephew's reaction which was to have an intake of breath and then say cool every few minutes.

So basically I'd recommend this for the youngins, roughly 8/9 years up and for adults if you just want something to fill in your time with but don't expect anything riveting.

I love this game. The graphics are awesome, the story line is great and unpredictable and there is just the right amount of gore and violence. Plus Kratos is just a great character to play with fantastic weapons and moves
