Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Amnesia: The Dark Descent

Games that absolutely radiate fear and horror aren't so common now a days. Amnesia, was created by Frictional Games. The game is fairly short, but do not fear. You will remember every second of this horrifying game. For example. Just a tiny little part of the game.. All the times your in the dark, or witness any sort of scary event you slowly go insane, seeing more and more events of horror! Wonderful eh? But down to the point, this game offers many puzzles and can seemingly go very far in depth without losing you. The storyline is quite to the point, and the voice acting is spot on. Graphically this game is quite good, it's not that of crysis. But its not that of minecraft :). The feeling you get when you know something is after you, and you need to hide or devise a plan to get rid of it is bar to none. The game has to be one the scariest games I've played in awhile. The atmosphere is near perfect to an absolute hell! The terror is unforgiving and you may find yourself sobbing. Its Amnesia: The Dark Descent.. I rate this 8.5/10 although I feel it deserves more..

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit

Need for speed hot pursuit

Need for speed hot pursuit is the newest game in the need for speed series that lets you pick between two different campaign like sides! Cops or Racers! First off the games graphics look absolutely amazing, but feels quite a bit like burnout. Cops and Racers get weapons such as road spikes! These are used to take out cars in races but later the weapons become over powered and are used against you! Trust me you start to run for your life. The autolog system works very well and keeps it fun after you are done with the game. The game is about 7 to 9 hours so there is a fair amount of races. You should give it a try! I rate it 8.5/10

Monday Night Combat

Monday Night Combat

I know for a fact that many people play Team Fortress 2, its fast paced combat is quite enjoyable. After awhile it becomes loathsome, and often times you drift away. Thats where Monday Night Combat comes in. Its a very lighthearted shooter compared to team fortress 2, yet has quite abit of the same things. For example the classes are Assault and Tank (big weapons) Assassin and Sniper (smaller yet powerful weapon/options) and Support class which is able to heal such as a medic on TF2, at the beginning you start off with some money and must decide where to spend it! Maybe on yourself? Or maybe on turrets for safety. You have to choose fast because soon the wave will come. Wave? Yes! waves of minions! Like league of legends, or Dota! You kill theses for more money to progress more and upgrade more through the level! Besides all that I find this games content to be fun and focused. Not at all an extreme shooter with people trying to be god. This is a light fun tactical game, such as TF2. I rate this game 8/10

Magicka

Ever want to have a game where you can combine spells to create other spells you have not found? Multiple elements you can add to create an epic spell? Shield bombs? Frozen bolts of earth? All! this is in magicka! Magicka's spell system is one of what many have wanted, allowing for extensive experimentation and discovery! The gameplay is often laid back, and most of the time when not fighting epic bosses, you are testing new spells and combos. You also learn spellbook spells which often times are much stronger and greater than normal spells.

There is witty commentary on the story, and everyone talks like a Swedish sim! Soon you will find yourself speeding through using crazy spells and healing and shielding yourself thinking your invincible. Till a boss beats you, and your forced to change your tactics! Did I mention this is Co-op? and multiplayer? also a challenge mode/ arena challenge mode! Servers you can connect to and play with other people. Playing Magicka isn't just about remembering and spamming spells over and over again. Its more about trying all kinds of different spells watching destruction before you, as you win the battle! It's epic that the mechanics of this game are so sound, and feel so rewarding. I would rate this game 8.5/10!

Dead Space 2

This game is insane. The terrifying moments and epic kills are worth it alone. When I first started the game I already felt that similar feel of the other game. Always anticipating, and fearing. The kicker to this game is that you don't have conventional weapons.. You have weapons that were already there for mining. Buzzsaws and plasma cutters, with an engineering suit to boot. The main character is Isaac, he has quite a background, and his hullucinations and conversations with himself are a halarious part of this game. Behind all of this its gracefully placed on a well good story-line. Which just completes this game in its entirety. I would rate this game 9.5/10 if you played Dead Space 1 and liked it at all. You will absolutely love this game.
