The next Xbox.
The original Mech Assault was the first game I played on Xbox Live and it was a great game. For the past few months I had been looking forward to the release of Mech Assault 2: Lone Wolf for a fresh Xbox Live experience. After playing a few games online, I’m very disappointed.
The single player campaign in Mech Assault 2 is challenging and fun, just like the first game. They’ve upped the intensity and added some new features that make it one of the top games released in 2004. The controls have changed, but are still extremely easy to use. There are new mechs, new maps, and new enemies to blow up. The maps/worlds are really well done with some great detail and design. With the addition of new mechs come the addition of a few new types of weapons that add more variety to the game.
What a great game! The single player campaign in Ghost Recon 2 is top-notch and the Tom Clancy series delivers yet again. You simply can’t go wrong buying a game with the Clancy name on it.
The graphics and audio are among the best I’ve come across on the Xbox. You can really feel the action in the heat of battle, especially if you have a nice sub woofer for your stereo system. Player movements, communication, and environment details are all very important in a game such as this. Ghost Recon 2 delivers in all areas.
Halo 2 Trick Jumping has a lot of neat videos showing special jump techniques that can be used in Halo 2.
In less than a month, more than 5 millions copies of Halo 2 were sold. The game has also logged more hours of play on Xbox Live than any other game. That’s pretty amazing since there are numerous games that have been playable on Xbox live for 2 years and Halo 2 did it in […]
Bungie has already released an update to Halo 2 via XBox Live. It fixes the long delay (of a minute or two) sometimes experienced when joining a game through matchmaking. This was quite a delay considering a lot of the games only last 5 or 6 minutes. After installing the update, I was able to […]
When I first fired up Crimson Skies I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. I had read several favorable reviews about the game though, so I was expecting it to be fun. After the first 5 or 10 minutes I thought, “This game sucks. I’m doing the same things over and over again.”
But after playing a little bit more, I was quickly addicted. The action is fast-paced and fun. Not only do you shoot from planes, but you shoot from AA guns on the ground and from in the sky too. Crimson Skies is all based around missions to make money or get information and each one is a little bit different. Over the course of the game you aquire new planes, each having their own strengths and weaknesses. One thing I didn’t understand was that my hanger of planes never filled all of the available spaces. Maybe I skipped a part of the game somehow.
Earn medals playing Halo 2 multiplayer! Only 7 hours and I’ll be at home playing…
With over 1.5 million copies on pre-order, Halo 2 promises to be AWESOME. Have I mentioned this enough in the past few weeks? Here’s some reading material to get you through the rest of the day. The reviews from IGN and Gamespot are both several pages long but full of information and only some of it is in both articles. You’ll want to read both.

You will love Halo 2 multiplayer. It’s really that simple. And if you don’t, there’s almost certainly something very, very wrong with you.
As previously suggested, easily the worst part about the story is the way it ends, insofar as it doesn’t. You’ll run into this game’s cliff-hanger ending like a compact car into a brick wall, and you’ll certainly be left aching for more.
Yes, the actual gameplay of Halo’s single-player campaign is a blast. But the campaign also winds up being the most disappointing part of the game–probably the only disappointing part.
Listen to one of the songs used in Halo 2.
If you don’t see any updates on the site over the next few days don’t be suprised. Less than one day left…
