| Dead Rising 2: Case Zero Achievements Posted: 27 Aug 2010 08:32 PM PDT DLC has a notoriously forgiving Achievements-to-hours invested ratio, which would be enough to recommend Case Zero in itself. Throw in the fact that the content’s only 400 MS Points, and the fact that it gives you a five-level head start on other Dead Rising 2 players, and you’re left with a winning combination.

| Posted: 27 Aug 2010 08:11 PM PDT Admit it, you sick bastards. You’ve been waiting your entire lives for the opportunity to attach virtual chainsaws to a virtual kayak paddle, and go slaughter some virtual zombies. I knew it! Thankfully for you, Dead Rising 2 was invented. Picking up where CAPCOM’s 2006 bloodthirsty action-RPG left off, the game promises more of the inventively gorey zombie-killing we’ve come to love, along with high production values and full complement of reverent hat-tips to shuffling-undead classics. A new item combination system explains the Kayak-chainsaw monstrosity above, and the design team has recently unveiled a deliciously demented gladiatorial multiplayer system, which allows competing gamers to try to outdo each other as they hew through the slavering horde. Below you’ll find a full walkthrough, along with achievements, trophies, and cheats — all you’ll need to survive infested Vegas. Good luck, and good huntin’.

| Dead Rising 2: Case Zero Walkthrough Posted: 27 Aug 2010 07:27 PM PDT Priced at a mere 400 Microsoft Points, Dead Rising 2′s Case Zero DLC punches above its weight. Commissioned by executive producer Keiji Inafune (of Mega Man and Onimusha fame) as both a demo and prequel, the software will introduce gamers to Dead Rising 2 protagonist Chuck Greene, he of frosty glare and frosted tips. Trapped in the arid, Undead-infested town of Still Creek (2 years after the events of the original Dead Rising), Greene must defend his daughter Katey from the zombie onslaught, introducing players to the game’s key mehanics (like item combination — see above) and enabling them to get a head-start on abilities, items, and experience up to level five. Maybe more importantly, Case Zero is the storytelling bridge that connects the first installment to its sequel, filling us in on the carnage that transpires between Frank West (Photojournalist)’s escape from Williamette Mall and the Las Vegas-based mayhem that Greene will indulge in later this Fall. Get going on your way to Vegas (avoiding Bat Country, perhaps), with this step-by-step walkthrough.

| Only Have a PSPgo? Want Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep? Can’t Have It. Posted: 27 Aug 2010 04:34 PM PDT
But that’s not so with PSP-exclusive Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep. Because that thing is UMD-only, ladies and bros. Here’s what a person doing PR on the game said, per all-around-guy-wh0-writes-stuff Phil Villarreal: “Just found out that there unfortunately are no plans to release KHBBS on PSP Go. If that changes, I will certainly let you know!” Well that settles that. And while I don’t doubt that, someday, the game will show up in the Playstation Store, if there are “no plans” now, it won’t be up when the game comes out in eleven days. Stop counting; eleven days from now is September 7.

Well, prepare to be even less bored, because the game is getting some paid DLC on September 21 called the liars and Cheats pack. It’s all about multiplayer free roam, and here’s what it includes:
That’ll run you $10/800 MS points, depending on the platform. Alright, neato. Again, that’s September 21 on both the PS3 and 360.

| Posted: 27 Aug 2010 01:26 PM PDT Too often we think of the quality of games only in extreme terms; usually we either say a game is amazing or not good. And that’s it. Mafia II is neither amazing nor not good. It’s just good. What we have here is a game that is unusual. It’s an open-world game, but it’s very linear all the same, not unlike Crysis. A chapter begins, typically, when the main character, Vito, wakes up and gets a phone call. You want me to meet you somewhere, Joe? OK. You go meet Joe or whoever, do something, shoot some guys and go back home and go to bed. Chapter over. There’s not gonna be much dicking around on the player’s part, because there’s not much dicking around that you can do aside from robbing stores for little money or running over pedestrians in your car. The only extra thing I ever did after a mission was go to the store and buy a new outfit with my hard-earned cash from the day. The story is pretty slight. It’s a typical coming-up-in-the-mob tale, and it takes elements from most mafia movies you’ve seen, but it still manages to surprise in some very pleasing ways. The game opens with Vito fighting in Italy in World War II, and you actually spend an entire chapter in prison. The game moves along at a brisk pace, and it’s a good ten hours long. In a way, they’re taking a lesson from GTA IV, which was so long and meandering that some gamers never finished it. But the story suffers because of it. At one point, while Vito and his friend Joe are driving through Empire Bay’s nicest neighborhood, and Vito says he’s gonna own a house there one day. And he does, but the game doesn’t give you time to appreciate that fact before some bad s**t goes down and you lose the house. This is my main beef with the game. Yes, it’s all a generally pleasant experience, and the driving and fighting are, while not spectacular, efficiently executed, and the productions values are quite high, making it one of the best looking games on the 360, for sure. But the story just does not breathe, and the story is as important as anything else here. The game has fifteen chapters, and Vito experiences a major life change about every five chapters. The problem is that the chapters are too short, usually encompassing only one event, whether it be a mission or going to a bar to pick up Joe because he’s drunk and waving a gun around. This is a big problem because the scope of the game is so large. It takes place over eight years in Vito’s life, and in order to make the player feel that, the pace of the game needed to be much more relaxed than it was.
People liked to complain about GTA IV’s time-wasting elements, like when friends would call Nico to go drinking or bowling or whatever, but those things were absolutely crucial to immersing the player in Nico’s life. Because there’s no extraneous material and because the story moves so quickly, the player is more like a spectator in Mafia II. One big nitpick: the checkpoints in this game are horrendous. You might go through ten minutes of combat and then die, only to have to do it all over again. The worst part comes when you have to come up with about $1500 by robbing stores or crushing cars; I had robbed five or six stores, and then I got shot up by the cops. And then I had to start all over again, because the game won’t save until you get all the money and deliver it to the loan shark you owe it to. This is abuse. So what are we left with? Mafia II, despite those flaws, is still a good game. The story is interesting and engaging, and there are some great character moments scattered throughout (my favorite is when Vito drives a couple drunk mobsters home and they sing along to Return To Me by Dean Martin). And it’s fun to play, pretty much. But while it’s ultimately a title that won’t be mentioned on best-of-the-year list come January, I doubt many folks are going to regret spending the time it takes to complete it. Pros: Cons:
Final Score: 80/100

| Posted: 27 Aug 2010 10:00 AM PDT The latest entry in the venerable Metroid series is Metroid: Other M. Developed by Team Ninja and set just after the events of 1994′s Super Metroid, Other M features a brand new story starring intrepid bounty hunter Samus Aran. It’s also one of the more highly anticipated games of 2010. Does it live up to the hype? One of the first things you’ll notice about Metroid: Other M is that Samus actually has quite a bit of dialogue. This is both a positive and a negative, as some of the dialogue is painful to listen to. Trust me when I say that you’ll be sick of hearing about the Baby. Plus, Samus comes off as less a bounty hunting badass, and more a whiny brat. Still, it doesn’t spoil the story. The game begins as you watch a cinematic of the conclusion of Super Metroid, and you get to see what happens to Samus afterward. Soon, Samus returns to her ship, and while flying through space, she receives a distress call. Following the call takes her to the “Bottle Ship,” where the majority of the game takes place. There, she teams up with a team of Galactic Federation soldiers to search for survivors. Fans of the Metroid series will be right at home in Other M right away. The game is in 3D, but much of is played in a side-scrolling, third-person environment. Other M uses the standard Wiimote with no nunchuk. Instead, you hold the controller sideways, much like you do for New Super Mario Bros. Wii or Mario Kart Wii. This simplifies the controls markedly, and allows them to incorporate the true standout feature: the ability to switch seamlessly to a first-person perspective. Activated by simply pointing the Wiimote at the screen, switching into first person allows the player to use Samus’ missiles, as well as to look around and examine the environment. First person mode does come with a major drawback: you can’t move around. Tapping the D-pad in any direction allows you to dodge enemy attacks in either view mode, but outside of this, you’re rooted to your spot in first person. My one big complaint is that the switch to first person often leaves you looking in a very different direction than you anticipated, resulting in a second of disorientation, and often causing you to die to whatever enemy you’re facing. Samus comes equipped with her full arsenal of weapons, but many of them are off-limits in the beginning. Since she’s working with a team of soldiers, Samus is limited by the rules of engagement they issue. As she progresses in the facility, she receives permission to unlock more powerful weapons as the need arises. Unlocking weapons shows off one of the coolest new features: beam stacking. As you unlock new beams, they don’t replace the old one as they did in the Metroid: Prime series. Rather, the beam simply augments and improves your existing beam. This is important because it allows you to use the more powerful wave beam and still gain the freezing effects of the ice beam. It also frees up buttons on the controller, which are at a premium. Samus continues her tradition of rolling up in a ball and cutting through ventilation shafts. In fact, exploration plays a large role in this game, as many of the items (energy and missile tanks) require you to find your way to them. Other M is one of the best looking Wii games I have played to date. The environments are varied, and the Bottle Ship presents a number of different themes, including a lava board and a snow & ice area. You’ll encounter a large variety of enemies, and many of them are quite unique. One facet of Other M that didn’t thrill me was the difficulty. Instead of a rising difficulty throughout the game, it seemed that extremely difficult spots were interspersed throughout the game in seemingly random locations. I expected the game to be challenging since Team Ninja was involved, but it almost felt kind of schizophrenic at times. Still, Team Ninja has crafted a Metroid game that stands solidly on it own. It’s similar enough to previous games in the series that it remains instantly familiar, but different enough to stand apart as well. As a bonus, it’s roughly 15 hours long, meaning that you’ll definitely get your money’s worth out of this one. All in all, Metroid: Other M is a compelling title that will appeal to longtime fans of the series and newcomers alike. It’s a polished, well-rounded experience. While it may not be reason enough to buy a Wii, it’s a game that should definitely be in the library of any Wii owner. Pros:
Cons:
Score: 90/100
