Random Thoughts O’ 360 Games


Ok…so I owe it to you guys to post some impressions of games. I’ve been sent just about every launch title, and while some of the reviews are running in the Tribune, others may slip through the cracks. I just want to chime in.

Project Gotham Racing 3
I find this to be the most enjoyable game of the bunch. It’s quick to play a game or two when you don’t have a lot of time. The graphics are something to show off to friends, and the soundtracks streaming from my iPod make the drive even better.

Kameo: Elements of Power
This is another first-party game by Rare. This platformer has a lot of polish, but the gameplay mechanics begin to feel repetitive. This can be said for a lot of games, so the story has to keep you interested. It tries to be epic, but it just comes off really goofy. The original score was composed using a full orchestra, and even though it’s really good, it just doesn’t to seem fit.

Perfect Dark Zero
If you compare this game to Halo, you will be disappointed. It’s a good game, it’s just a different game. Much like Halo, I do prefer the Xbox Live multiplayer experience to the single player game.

Amped 3
This is the weirdest sports game ever. It’s like mixing Napoleon Dynamite, an episode of Cartoon Network’s brilliant Robot Chicken and a snowboarding game. It’s much like the last one, except it’s harder to wipe out and the story is strange.
