Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition. *Warning this review contains spoilers about the game*

This game is near perfection. It has great characters like Leon, Krauser, Ada, and Albert Wesker. The storyline is amazing and so are the visuals. The story goes that Leon Scott Kennedy is sent to a remote part of Mexico to find the President's Daughter Ashley Graham. At first you go into an abandoned house to see a man stirring the fire. Leon asks him if he's seen Ashley and shows him a picture. Then he picks up an axe and walks towards Leon. He has no other choice but to shoot him. The man falls to his knees. After that you jump out of the house and kill some more villagers. You go into the town do some stuff (Which includes having a awesome fight with a chainsaw weilding maniac.) Then you keep going on trying to find and save Ashley. You eventually save her at the end then have a showdown with Osmund Saddler the protaganist in the game. You kill him with the help of Ada Wong and at the end try to get off the island on a seadoo with rushing water behind you.

One of the cool things about this game are the weapons. There is everything from Pistols, to Magnums, to Shotguns, to MGs. You can customize your weapons buy spending money to increase their attributes which I find is a cool feature.

The visuals in this game are so damn amazing. They are the best visuals I have ever seen on the Wii. Everything from gunshots to the arm, to Head Decapitation, it all seems real. This is one of those games that makes you feel you are actually in the game.

Here are my ratings for Resident Evil 4:

Visuals: 10/10
Sound/ Music: 10/10
Multiplayer: N/A
Storyline: 10/10
Wii Remote Functionability: 8/10
Overall: 9.5/10

Call Of Duty: World At War
This game is awesome in almost every way. The only drawback is the multiplayer. I hate that only one player gets to move and the other player just aims, shoots and reloads. It does sort of make sense though because you wouldn't want to people waving wii motes at eachother. It has awesome online play and the story is an awesome story of World War II. The visuals are really good for the wii especially the killings. I also like the feature of turning violence/swearing off because if I'm bored and have no one to play with I can play with my little brothers and brag about how good I am. (Just kidding I'm not that much of a dick) The visual, sound, and storyline are all great.
Here are the ratings I give it:
For online play I give this game 9/10.
Multiplayer 6.5/10.
Single Player 8/10.
Overall (This is not an average) 9.5/10.

Shadow Of The Colossus-PS2
Shadow Of The Colossus is an awesome game. It didn't make it into the PS2's greatest hits for nothing. This game is so cool because you get to fight big huge creatures called Colossi and they are fun to battle. The bad thing about it is the gameplay is sort of repetitive and the horse and character are a little hard to control. The blood on the Colossi is black which is pretty cool and it only gives this game a teen rating. The weapons you get are a sword and a bow and arrow. The whole point of the fights are to get the Colossi down then climb on them. Once you are on them you have to find their weak spot which is indicated by a shining light somewhere on their body. It is usuallly located on their head or behind. You then have to stab it to lower their health then usually after 3 stabs it dissapears and you have to find it again. I highly recommend it to anyone that doesn't already own it. I only give it a 8/10 because it is hard to find the locations of the Colossi and for repetitive gameplay. Still it is a game you should check out. My ratings:

Gameplay: 8/10
Controls: 7/10
Visuals: 9/10
Sound: 6/10
Overall(Not an average): 8/10

Driver Parallel Lines-Wii
Driver Parallel Lines for the Nintendo Wii.
(Sorry if some of the info is incorrect I haven't played it for a while.)

General:
In general what's not to like about this game? (A rethorical question) It has gang affiliation, drugs, and awesome gun fights. This game is worth buying and playing until the end.

Storyline: *WARNING CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS*
The story is basically you're a gang member doing missions for people while trying not to get arrested. You do get shot in the middle of the game and get sent to jail and get to go into the future. When you're in the future you get to seek revenge on the people that helped put you in there.

Gameplay:
In the game you get all kinds of weapons such as: Machine Gun, Minigun, Pistol, Shotgun, Grenade Launcher, and a bazooka. You get to steal people's cars and crash into other people's cars. What's really funny is running people over with your vehicle. That never gets old. When you complete the game you can get a tank which is really fun because it's virtually invincible.

Vehicles:
The variety of vehicles is really good. In the past you get some old time vehicles and some cool ones too. In the future you get some cooler cars and most of them are faster.

Weapons:
The weapons in the game are awesome I mean whats more fun than blowing someone up with a grenade launcher? They could have had more like a baseball bat, a chainsaw, and some other types of each weapon category. Ex: MG's, Pistols, etc.

Cops System:
The cops are so damn fun to piss off. Just by speeding past them they will get so damn pissed. You get your rating up each time you kill someone or cause damage. What's gay about it though is if you steal a police car you automatically get 5 stars. When you get to 4 stars or more you get chased by either a helicopter or a S.W.A.T. van.

Visuals:
The visuals in this game are just amazing. When you kill someone it looks so realistic. The explosions need a bit of work but other than that it's great.

Sound/Music:
From explosions to gunshots the sounds in the game are awesome. The character voices kick ass too. This is one of the things that make it feel like your actually in the game. The music is alright in the past because it has some catchy songs but it is way better in the future. There is one song I really like but I don't know what it's called. They could have had some more music though. But this is pure opinion.

Past VS Future: *WARNING CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS*
I think the future is better than the past for: music, vehicles, weapons, and missions. In the future you get revenge on the people that helped put you in jail and end the game by killing the person that actually put you in jail. It is a wicked fight.

My ratings for Driver Parallel Lines-Wii:

Sounds/Music: 8.5/10
Visuals: 8/10
Weapons: 7.5/10
Vehicles: 7/10
Wii Mote Functionability: 6/10
Characters: 9/10
Overall Experience(Not an average): 8/10

Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen- DS
I know this game is a bit old but here is what I have to say on it:

This game in my opinion for the Nintendo DS game system isn't very good. Here is why. First of all I hate to be a damn critic but the visuals, sound, and AI suck. And I don't mean suck as in not good, I mean suck as in horrible. I mean I'm not trying to compare this game but take Mario Kart for example. It has a good graphics engine. Now I'm not basing this game on graphics because a game could have the worst graphics and I would still give it a 5 star rating. With Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen it's not just the lack of visual that makes it a bad game but some of the other things like sound, storyline, and the crappy boss fights.

Yes it is addictive but not for long. After a while you get tired of the weapon sounds, (sounds like someone's crumpling a peice of paper) the visuals, and the braindead AI. I mean come on, when you shoot an enemy they usually just stand there and it is so easy to block their gunshots. You just keep jumping in on direction.

The music in the game is good so I have to give them that. Though that may be that's the only sound quality that isn't lacking anything.

It is so booooooring battling bosses. All you do usually is shoot at them, then do something to destroy a forcefeild they go behind about three times then they die. That's about it.

There isn't much of a challenge to Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen basically because what I said before: "The AI is braindead." Yes you do die sometimes when for example you are trying to dispose of a bomb and a whole crapload of enemies are shooting at you, but there is such a simple way to get around that even a person suffering from Mental Retardation can do it. (I exxagerate to make a point.) Pick em off one by one.

Although my review has been negative so far I gotta hand it to them it was a good idea but they should have had a Megan Fox theme where she strips in front of you. That would have boosted my rating up a couple stars.
But in all seriousness they had a good idea going and you think they would've improved more by realizing their mistakes from the first one. For example: they could've used a better graphics engine. Again I'm not saying the Visuals is the reason I hate it there is lots of others.

The mini-games in the game are creative and kind if cool. It is fun to race other Autobots, but it is sort of a challenge to collect a bunch of Energon while doing that.

One of the cool parts of the game is levelling up your autobot. If you collect enough Energon you can raise it's attributes such as: Strength and Accuracy.

Enough about the game's features let's talk about the storyline. Not much of a story so far but I'm only half way through the game. Actually that's about all I can say about the storyline because there isn'y much too it.

So sure this game is based on the hit Movie Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen but it lacks some of the things the movie has like Megan Fox. I don't know about this game on the Nintendo Wii but I think it is better than the DS version. (Atleast I hope.) So if you are one of those few people that made it this far into the review and you haven't bought it yet I don't reccommend it. But what I do reccommend is you maybe rent it or borrow it from a friend. If you do own this game for either the Wii or The DS please comment on this review telling me your personal opinions. Please keep reading my reviews.

Here are my ratings for Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen:

Visuals: 3/10
Sound: 3/10
Storyline: 4/10
AI: 3/10
Music: 7/10
Overall(Not an average): 6/10

Please visit my Profile page and feel free to add me as a friend if you haven't done so already. I will hope to be doing a review on the first Transformers for Wii soon.
