Plot:
Get ready to switch off lights and set your headphone for maximum sound.....Fear 2 is a game which will take a hell out of you. You can feel your hairs getting errected while playing the game. Sound quality is mammamia its 10 on 10 in respect to sound and music. The story is of a team which is sent just 30 minutes before ending of the Fear(previous release), the protagonist is Micheal Becket, The game starts with him experiencing a hallucination of Alma, a supernatural element which wants to take revenge from those who have done a wrong to her. Becket and his team finds penthouse complex in assault with black ops from Armacham Technology Corporation's Board of Directors. Becket learns of a project name "Harbinger" and as he tries to know more from Aristide but could find nothing serious but the explosion from FEAR point man knocks him unconsious.

The rest of the story is for you to find out, Becket receives guidance from "Snake Fist" and as Alma tries to absorb Becket the scene and ambush is awesome. You will surely like this game and give it a must try. The moving away from your team and then reuniting is full of thrill and it really takes you inside the game.

Recommendations including switch off lights and if you got an AC put it on you will feel much thrill and fear trust me ;) .

POP The Forgotten Sands Review(*********-/10)

2010-08-14T22:42:00.000-07:00

Publisher: UBISOFT

Developer: UBISOFT MONTREAL

PLOT: The opening shows prince riding on his horse to see his brother Malik but he finds the kingdom under attack. The prince after a lot of effort was able to see his brother. They both fight together with the army but when they reach the treasure vaults Malik commits the mistake to open a burried secret. With a seal he opens up the sand army and Ratash the master of them. Now whosoever touches the sands becomes sand itself. All army turns into sand. Malik and prince got separated in mean time Prince meets a Gin who takes care of water and kingdom in their she helps prince to put back Ratash and save the kingdom by providing him with powers he never had.

The powers and gameplay are awesome mainly the capability to stop water. Good use of this power is made and Ubisoft has thought a lot on how to make most of it. Now both of them fight separately, if you have played earlier versions you will get essence of Dhaka in Ratash, you have to just run and run but later with a mystical sword prince is able to somewhat kill Ratash but the ending shot was made by his brother, Ratash occupies his brother's body and now uses him by imparting him more and more power.

The ending 3 dimensional fight and video are beautiful and deadly too. The powers to kill and fight are great and you will find fun killing the creatures. Though the game is quiet easy to play and don't offer much hurdles to pass.

If you truely want a game in which you don;t have to think in 3 dimensions but 5 or may be 6 dimensions simultaneously then the game is surely for you.

The game is short though but intact in-place and absolutely no flaw like its earlier version.

Check out some screenshots , gameplay videos and trailers.

COD Modern Warfare 2 Review(**********/10)

2010-07-28T10:31:00.000-07:00

General Info:
INFINITYWARD

RAM: 1 GB
Graphics Card: 256 MB NVIDIA GeForce 6600GT or better or ATI Radeon 1600XT or better
Hard Drive: 12 GB

Plot: No matter how confusing the story is and whether you get it or not the game is a must to play. I really clapped at the end of game when I killed Shephard and my eyes really filled with tears. The game has excellent quality in both audio and video. spell bounding game with lots of environment in which game occurs from Afganistan icy place to underwater, in Helicopter at every place you will have every bit of gaming flavor in it.
Your duty calls and nothing can stop you from performing that. The game is ultimate you have to go undercover and shoot even at civilians to catch a deadly terrorist. Your own leader betrays you and tries to kill you. The direction is of supreme quality and camera movements along with action video is amazing.

A must shot game and should definitely be played. You will surely miss a great battlefield. Everything in the game is more than expected. Best action game uptil now played by me.

You can check out screenshots, Trailors and gameplay videos before finding warrior within yourself.

Plot: The story is a sequel to previous sands of time, it features a monstrous creature named Dhaka.

A nice boost taken by Ubisoft and unbelievable too.

The Prince has made a fatal mistake in past by opening the SANDS OF TIME in hourglass. A monstrous creature Dhaka kills anyone who opens it and so prince is chased by this ugly monster i.e. his death. His fate has been written that "He will die." .

He meets on his way to kaileena "mystress of time" who first helps him to escape from island but later it turns out that she wants to kill the prince because she is mysteress of time and has forseen her future that prince will kill him.

Now the game is basically in two parts i.e. alternate ending.
In one ending you kill kaileena, you regret for what you have done and go in past to give her life but after being leted lived she doesn;t listens to you and you have to kill her.
In other one u get water sword and kaileena remains alive and u kill dhaka amazing and actually the real ending.

Great game and requires a lot of thinking to what is happening you will face yourself in past and future amazing things, in past you go to kill yourself so that you can make things right. Great concept game and if you haven;t played it you are missing a great thing in life.

Drawbacks:
A bit of glitches and way finding problems otherwise rocking and maddy game.

Story and Game: An ultimate racing game and the best I have ever played. So less are the system requirements but the game rocks. Its graphics are pretty good, motion bluring, dynamic lights all give you a real look and feel. If you have not played it then you are missing a big thing in life.

Check out screenshots, trailers and gameplay.
Game starts with you losing your BMW to the police chase and then meeting Mia and company. There are 15 blacklist bosses you have to deal with. Slowly progressing to top one RAZOR and beat him. To get noticed by the level boss you have to finish small events and tasks of racing and also make your bounty up to the level of boss.
The Police chase is marvellous and keeps your hip out of the chair till end. If you play via gamepad or voyager wheel then it will be even more good to go.
Videos are of good quality and intact story line which keeps you interested in game.
