Batman has always kind of been an icon to me, ever since I was a child and even now. Although I tend to go off to the darker side of the Batman instead of the kid friendly version. However, Arkham City was definitely the side that I prefer to see. Arkham City was an excellent game, and is made even better with the Catwoman DLC. I'm sure many, if not all of you are aware that this is the sequel to Batman Arkham Asylum which is a game I did not get to play. However, if it is anything like this game then I do not think I will be disappointed.

I rated this game a 9.7, the game played smoothly no confusing controls or very overwhelming missions. I think that the only real thing that did bother me with the game was the A.R. Training courses. They can be quite frustrating if you can't nail them within a few tries, but the upgrades are completely worth it. When it comes to how this game looks, the only word that I can come up with is amazing. The graphics are phenomenal, I rated them a solid 10. Usually I encounter a bunch of graphical problems with games, but I cannot say that I have with this one. Like I said earlier it plays pretty smoothly.

The sound I rated 9, there wasn't really that much music in the game mostly it was the sounds of the city which I think kind of adds to the realism of the game. What music there was in the game was to add the effect of whatever was going on around you, mostly in clip screens and boss fights. And there is something kind of satisfying about hearing your foes making sounds of pain when you beat the crap out of them. I think it is one of the reasons why I keep playing, which brings me to the addictiveness of this game. I rated the addictiveness a 9 as well, I played this a little once or twice a long time ago, but once I really got into the story of the game and found out what was going on I was hooked. The game's story is what did me in. So would I play this again? My answer, oh my god yes!

Now once again it is time for my favorite part of the review, the story this game scored a 10 for it's story with me. It was a very consistent story and I like that, one that makes sense all the way through and doesn't throw you somewhere far far away for whatever reason. The story is like this: Hugo Strange becomes head of the prison facility Arkham City, which is the old Gotham City after it was shut down. With all of these prisoners running around committing the crimes that they would have committed in the real Gotham City, you are surprised to find out that political leaders are suddenly being thrown in by Hugo Strange. Which brings us to Bruce Wayne, his sudden interest in politics has him thrown into Arkham City as well. Now Batman is here to stop Hugo who not only knows who Batman really is, but is also going to unleash what he calls Protocol 10. Soon Batman has a run in with the Joker who poisons Batman with his own blood, finding out that the Joker is sick due to the Titan containers (which I'm assuming is from the first game) Batman must find a cure which leads him through a wild goose chase to famous villains like Mr. Freeze, and Clayface (just to name a few, trying not to spoil). So now Batman has two goals, with a bunch of side quests to take on as well. Which now leads me to discuss the depth of the game. There are a lot of side quests, and a lot of "hidden" items, and by "hidden" I mean right in plain sight just a pain in the butt to actually get to. For instance, there are Riddler Trophies that you must collect to unlock things like concept art, etc. There are also upgrades like the grapnel gun boost, which will make traversing Arkham City a lot faster. I rated the depth an 8. Mainly because although there is a lot to collect, collecting them is not mega difficult. Speaking of difficult, this game has a bit of a challenge to it. It's not impossibly hard but there will be times where you have to repeat a mission once or twice before you actually get how to do it, the hardest times being a boss battle. This is why I rated the difficulty a 7.

Overall Batman Arkham City was a great game, and I'm so glad I had the chance to play it. I will more than likely be playing it again very soon. I hope that I have inspired all of you to try this game, whether you be an avid Batman fan like myself or just an average fan this game will promise to deliver and it does. I would like to thank everyone for reading this review, until next time.

Brigand : I honestly didn't expect anybody on here to really know who he was mainly because this is a family friendly site, but I've been listening to a lot of him lately I wish I could have seen in concert but I kind of feel like him and me would have been fighting since he likes to hit his audience lol

alsonic : I would suggest checking out the link that Brigand sent, that is if you haven't already. Let's put it this way, he was awesome lol

I never once hid that I didn't believe in any kind of higher being to any of my family, even the ones who were all about Christianity and I have always said that if my kids decided they didn't want any part of my beliefs that it wouldn't matter I'm not going to make someone believe something they can't believe in.

Here is a small list:

Teen Mom 1 and 2
16 and Pregnant
Big Bang Theory
Family Feud

I'm sure there are more, but this was a short list because I can't really think of any lol

Mindlessly wander the earth eating every living human I seen along the way, until the day where a survivor shoots me in the dome. What would you do if society started to crumble and you were given the most important choice in the world that would determine not only the fate of your country but others as well, with the simplest mistake killing millions of people?

I always thought it would be interesting to be murdered like, not act itself, but the fact that a lot of people will remember it and maybe even research it and it is all because some dude decided to come in and kill me. I have always had this fascination with the most goriest way to die, and I can see murder being the most gore filled.

To be completely honest, I don't think it does. Mainly because I believe if you are a true musician you should be happy that people want to hear your music whether they pay for it or not. In fact Trent Reznor released an album for free on the NIN website when his record company wouldn't release it, at the time he was all about free music. I mean if I found out that someone was downloading my music I would just feel honored instead of getting all angry like Metallica did, I mean that is just ridiculous either way it is not going to stop. Besides it is always because of the record company that the money even comes in, I think a real musician shouldn't worry that much about money. You are playing music, make that your first love not money. But that is just personal opinion really.

Hmm that is really hard, there are a lot of really good titles for the gamecube. I think my favorite though, might have to be either Pokémon Gale of Darkness or Metroid Prime. It might even end up being one of the legend of Zelda's for the gamecube I haven't exactly gotten to play them yet, and I really, REALLY want too.

Honestly, I hated a lot of rap music, still don't really like it that much. However, there are a few rappers that I believe do it right such as Busta Rhymes, Hopsin, Tech N9ne and Yellawolf. But I don't listen to them regularly anymore, I use to listen to Tech N9ne like everyday lol

This is easy, metal most definitely, I grew up on bands like Slayer and GWAR so metal is kind of like a first love for me. I love Punk a lot too, but that R'n'B stuff no thank you. I can't listen to that stuff, it is all chorus. What I hear when a song like that comes on is either a song full of chorus that is meant to get stuck in your head or a song about some kind of break up or first love or something like that. I am not bashing the style please everyone do not misinterpret that, I don't care at all if anyone listens to it, just my personal opinion is all.

So I have been sitting here for a little while now just jamming to G.G. Allin, and then I suddenly started thinking, "I wonder if anyone on vizzed knows who G.G. is.." So here I am, does anyone on here at all know who this man was? Also, what do you think of his performances? Do you like or dislike his highly distorted music, or hate it? Personally, I love it I think his lyrics are hilarious and the music is kind of my style.

Usually I don't care for any of the generations after third, I barely cared for third when it was around, maybe it is because I grew up with the first few seasons. However, I am actually really excited about the new sixth generation. I think the Sylveon could look differently, it's cute sure but not what I really expected. I am stoked about Fennekin however, I think the idea of a fire psychic type is very interesting.

The Darkness is a wonderfully dark and twisted game involving the mob, revenge and a pair of demons that embed themselves in your body? I had borrowed this game from a really good friend of mine, and I was not disappointed. It was a great title, I find myself loving all of the characters within the game that I happen to come across, like Aunt Sarah.

I rated this game a solid 9, it is a great game. A first person shooter that I like almost as much as Bioshock, with a great story and awesome game play. Not once did I have any real problems with the controls, maybe a little with the camera but not enough to really take notice or quit the game out right. Then again a lot of games have the problem with the camera. As for the graphics, I thought they looked amazing I rated the graphics a 9. Everything was very clear the cars looked great and so did the darkness itself. The only thing graphically I noticed was if you were standing in front of a mirror and moved around you will notice how Jackie (the protagonist) hair flowing very oddly. Other than that the game looked great.

The sounds were interesting, the music wasn't exactly things that will get stuck in your head. However, the game has an awesome metal style song playing during combat, which I found kind of unique. Even the darkness talks every once and a while. I rated the sound an 8. As for the addictiveness, I rated this game a 9. Once I really started getting into the story of the game I couldn't put it down. I think a lot of people will find this game very entertaining and fun.

The story is always my favorite part of the game, well that and game play. But the story for this is absolutely breath taking. You play as Jackie Estacado, a hit man for hire for his Uncle Paulie who thinks that you and a group of people screwed him over on some money. That is when things start getting weird while running through a construction site trying to escape gunman, a voice in Jackie's head begins to speak to him. Discovering that he has had an timeless force known as the darkness on his 21st birthday, Jackie has to figure out how to stop the darkness from whatever it's evil goal maybe. However, Jackie may use the darkness to his advantage as well. The darkness can become seen to everyone and attack faces by turning into a snake creature, summoning a vortex and things like having "darkness guns." Needless to say there is a lot to this game, a few power ups for the darkness to gain, guns to be found, collectibles like phone numbers and letters to find and call/mail. Which brings me to the depth of this game, I rated a 10. I felt the game had the right amount of added content with the numbers and the letters to find, and the game is pretty deep when it comes to story and how long you actually sit there and play.

Now the difficulty, I'm not going to lie at times I have found myself stuck in certain parts. Kind of like the game will expect you to know right away what you need to do, which can get a bit frustrating. I rated the difficulty a 7. The game is not terribly hard, but can pose as a bit of a challenge from time to time. Then again I guess that is what makes a game fun and entertaining.

I highly recommend that people pick up this title, it was a great game and I don't think a lot of you will be disappointed. Especially with things like phone numbers, letters, guns, mob, darkness and an Italian last name Estacado. I hope that you, the reader have enjoyed this review and will continue to enjoy my reviews, thank you for reading until next review.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but I love Pokémon Snap. It's a very simple camera game, and by very simple I mean not even a single drop of difficulty. Pokémon Snap is easily beatable within an hour or two. After a while it kind of becomes a game of beating your highest score. However, you have a splendid time doing so.

Overall I rated this game an 8.3, although I love the game I can't really call it much of a serious one. You just take pictures, never once do you battle anything, it is definitely much more different than your average Pokémon game. You don't even move your character ever. The game was based around a character Ash had met in the anime Snap, who is a Pokémon photographer. Graphics were really good in this game, I rated them an 8. They look nice and pretty solid and cleaned up, at times however one Pokémon will pop up looking a tad blocky but it is easily forgivable.

The sound of this game honestly wasn't very exciting, and there wasn't anything that was really getting stuck in any ones head but they were not terrible. In fact they were pretty enjoyable. I didn't mind them, however the camera sounds great. They have implemented the perfect shutter sound. I rated the sound a 6. As for addictiveness I rated this game a 9, it is highly addicting and it is so odd that it is. You pretty much don't do anything, yet you have a ton of fun. In the end it is some how super fun to try to amp up your score as high as you can, and it is interesting to see what kind of pictures you can take.

Story is seriously lacking in this game, I had to rate a 4. And I think 4 is giving it some justice, the game has little to no story at all. Professor Oak needs someone to take pictures of Pokémon for him, because he is making a sort of book of Pokémon research and needs pictures of Pokémon in their natural habitat. That is where you come in, you are Snap and that is it. The depth is also seriously lacking, there are pretty much no secret areas or items. Every item you do get is handed to you by Oak, those being apples, pester balls, dash engine and poke flute. Which all have good uses for taking great pictures. There are however certain ways you must take pictures of certain kinds of Pokémon, for instance Slowpoke you have to evolve it into Slowbro by luring it over to a fishing spot with some apples and let it fish for Shellder. But that is really the only thing "extensive" about the game. Difficulty I rated a 1. This game can just be simply put as easy.

Overall Pokémon Snap is super easy, but a great game nonetheless. Nintendo saw that people loved it so much, that they decided to take it a step further and at Blockbuster you could take your copy of Pokémon Snap and print off pictures of the Pokémon you took. Needless to say that as a child Blockbuster was one of the best places to hit up. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this review and hopefully you will fall in love with Pokémon Snap too. Until next review.

Chrono Trigger is a mind blowing addition to the Super Nintendo. I believe a lot of people were really pleased with this title and it is not very hard at all to see why. This game has amazing story elements and great game play. Never once did I find the controls awkward or weird and the game plays pretty straight forward for the most part so getting lost just wasn't an option. Needless to say that Chrono Trigger captured my heart and is still a very much enjoyed game today.

Overall I rated this game a solid 10, I personally loved it and find it a cult classic of video games. Chrono Trigger took me on an amazing adventure, and still takes me there time and time again. I never get tired of playing. I love the style and the feel of the game and the story, it is nice and solid.

The graphics of this game look pretty good, especially for the era that it came out. I gave the graphics an 8, I loved them they were not to distorted that you couldn't tell what it was. You can definitely tell when you can interact with something and character designs look really nice. When it comes to the sound I had to rate it a 10, I loved every bit of music that this game produced each one fitting the mood of the level just perfectly. Each location sounding just as amazing as the first.

Addictiveness I rated 10, I am completely hooked and love playing this game. I also think a lot of new age gamers, if given the chance, will love this game too. And I really think that the story is what captivates most people, so I rated it a 10 as well. Chrono lives with his mom and wakes up one morning to go to the Millennium Fair and see his friend Lucca, but then he runs into a girl who calls herself Marle. As you and Marle find your friend, you watch as she displays her new invention a teleporter which Marle is so happy and eager to test out. However, her pendant reacts to the machine and now Chrono must go to the past and save her, turning a simple rescue mission into saving the whole world from a destructive and desolate future. That is the story shortened up, I didn't want to give any spoilers.

As for the depth I rated the game an 8. Sometimes you may find little secrets, like tonics and items. There are also a few extra characters who will aid you on your quest like Robo or Frog. Difficulty I rated a 7, the game wasn't hard really but sometimes can be a challenge when it comes to some bosses, etc. But overall the game is not impossible, not even slightly.

Chrono Trigger is needless to say an amazing game, and definitely deserves much praise. I hope that I have inspired those who have not tried this game to pick it up. It is an excellent adventure, and a wonderful game. Have fun, until next review.

Wolfenstein 3D is one of those games that you first look at and think, "there is no possible way that this game could be any good" but then kind of surprises you because it is not really that bad. It is interesting to say the least. Your main objective is pretty simple take your gun and kill Nazi's and try to get the highest score possible while traversing through different floors (or levels, if you will) of a building. Now I'm not sure at all how this game ends, I would assume once you got to the final level that you would have to take out Hitler or something along those lines but to be completely honest I am not sure. I only really played to check the game out because I heard some interesting things about it, with it being censored during a later release due to tons of swastikas around the place. However, I'm sure I made it far enough to write a pretty solid review of the game.

For the overall score I gave this game a 7.6, I didn't expect much when first going in especially since this game was first released on the DOS (for those who don't know DOS is a really old floppy disk game). However, when thrown into the game I was surprised with how much fun I had just running around and shooting Nazi's and rabid dogs, and collecting different treasures and guns. The only real problem I had with the game was that the controls were a little clunky and odd, but eventually you kind of get used to them. Maybe it is only on the Gameboy Advance that is like this? Perhaps the original had better controls, but I kind of doubt it because again it was released for DOS.

Anyway, the graphics surprised me a little I didn't think they were going to be as good as they actually are, granted they are not great but for the time period they are good. I rated the graphics a 5. Things looked blocky, but they were still recognizable. As for the sound I had to rate that really low, a 2. There was no music the only thing you ever heard throughout the game was when you shot your gun, found an enemy, got hit, collected treasure or healed with food or a med kit. It's a real shame to, I personally think that the developers could have had  a lot of potential for a great soundtrack for this game.

Wolfenstein is a great game to kind of pass the time, so it being an 'addicting game' is saying a little to much. I wouldn't say that it was addicting as much as it is a time killer so I rated the addictiveness a 7. I wasn't totally absorbed and wanting to really beat it, I just wanted to shoot things and that pretty much seems like all you really do. As for story....is there even a story? I didn't in any way really find one, I rate the story a 1. Even if the story of the game is that you are an agent sent in to defeat the Nazi party and save the world or whatever, it just doesn't seem like to solid of a story to me. So in the story department this game seriously lacks.

As for depth and difficulty, the game wasn't to big and there wasn't a whole lot of options to choose from when it came down to items. I didn't even see items, and the game wasn't hard you just fired your gun repeatedly. So on that note it is no wonder that I rated the depth a 3 and the difficulty a 2. I made through a few floors in less then 15 minutes, so again this game great time killer.

Overall I actually was kind of surprised with Wolfenstein 3D, I didn't think I would really like it to much but kind of enjoyed it. Is it a game that I'll be playing a lot, probably not but I might pick it up from time to time and who knows maybe one day I'll get interested enough to actually beat it. I wouldn't say that this game is not recommendable, it is and it is pretty fun too. However, I just don't take it that seriously. That's it for this review, I hope that you enjoyed it and that maybe you'll be interested in this game. Until next review.

ender44 : Thank you, and I had a lot of fun playing Castle Crashers with my friend. I don't know how far you made it or anything and I really hope I don't spoil anything for you but the last boss is ridiculous lol

TheeDragoniteMaster : So then it does cost money? I wasn't sure if I had to buy it or if it was one of those free downloadable games, my friend has it on his 360 I probably should have asked him when we played it lol

Castle Crashers is an interesting and fresh side scrolling beat 'em up adventure game that I find truly one of a kind. I didn't know anything about this game until a few weeks ago, I was visiting a friend of mine and he had it downloaded on his 360 and from there we began our journey together. This game seems like it would be good if it were just one player, but really takes the cake when it comes to multi player mode. You must fight your way through different levels with your partner in order to save princesses from these strange people who can fly around on crystals, and every so often after a boss you will have to fight each other for the princesses kiss (which honestly looks more like making out to me).

Rating this game was kind of hard for me, but after long thought and careful consideration I rated it an 8.9. It was a great game, and has to be the best beat 'em up game I have ever played, so far. Everything about this game will catch your attention, the way you use your character, the animation style and the creatures that you face not to mention the design of your characters. As you start you must choose from a small list of colorful characters, each having different magical abilities and as you play more characters can be unlocked.

The graphic style of this game, to me where fantastic I love the way it is animated with the childish styled looked added with a comic bookish imagery. I rated the graphics a 9. Even the animated animals and blood...and poop look amazing. Yes there is actually a bit of pooping in this game as you go through a level a few deer and an owl poop. Anyway, as far as sound goes the music was pretty good nothing really worth noting, or anything but I rated the sound an 8. I liked how the music went with the game it was pretty well, but nothing really got stuck in my head or popped out at me. As for the sounds of the character they weren't overly annoying like most games so this was okay in my book.

As far as addictiveness goes 10, easily a 10. My friend and I started the game and didn't stop until we had beaten it about three or four hours later. It is very addicting and very fun. I loved trying to figure out all of the cool things my character could do with his magic and his arrows and once I leveled him up enough the combos were pretty awesome. As far as story goes it was pretty standard just defeat a few bosses and save princesses so I rated it a 5. I don't even really know if there was exactly a story, due to the fact that the game doesn't really tell you much.

As for depth I gave this game a 7, there was a lot of content in this game. First off you have unlockable characters, then there are different combos that you can pick up along the way as you level up and not only that but the map is pretty big there are so many places you go and check out. There are also a ton of weapons, once you have discovered a weapon you can use it whenever you want however, you have to travel around the map to a blacksmith who holds them for you. You also can find these creatures known as pets that have different abilities and just like the weapons can be used anytime as long as you go to pick one up. Hmm is that everything? Oh right stats, as you level up you get the choice as to what you want your stats to look like. You are given a number and can chose which of your stats you want to boost up. Now I think that is everything. As far as the difficulty of this game, it is kind of tricky you may find yourself being amazing one minute only to completely fail the next so this game is pretty hard. I rated the difficulty an 8. My friend and I have replayed many of the same levels over and over again trying to just progress through to the next level.

I would say that if you have an Xbox 360 and the Internet get Castle Crashers, I'm not entirely sure if you have to pay for it or not. But if you do it is worth it. The game is great and I think a lot of people will really enjoy playing it. Well that is it for this review I hope you all enjoyed it and will consider Castle Crashers the next time you don't know what to play. Until next review.

iN008 : Sure will, I enjoy doing them  ^.^

Beastmode64 : Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. When I was a kid I didn't realize it was a sequel at all, and that is what I kind of find really cool about the game it's so good that if Nintendo was just all like oh yeah Majora's Mask was its own game and not a sequel no one would be hurt by it, but I personally could see it as it's own game.
