Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Best ever) 『This game is one of the best ever fighting game.. plus up to 4 ppl can play..』
(fun "quick to beat" game) 『It's not for everyone, but It's oviouse who would like it, It has violence,(it is a fighting game)It has famouse rappers like ICE-T and Snoop Dogg, You can beat the game it in a day, unlocking characters for future play,but you can make different fighters with different fighting styles, so you can play it again and again, when you got time to kill. I like it. It won't go in the pile of games I beat and never play again.』
(Rap, Hip-Hop and Wrestling!!!) 『Reviewed for Big Boss Games by: P.K. The Green
It's nice when a company has faith in it's unique franchises. And with a company as big as E.A., you would have faith too.
I'm talking about Def Jam: Fight for NY. Boasting some of the biggest names in both hip-hop fashion and talent (who lend their voices to the game) really adds to the authenticity of the culture the game portrays.
The fighting engine is easily compared to the classic wrestling titles on the N64. This is a good thing, as some will say these are some of the best games of the genre.
There are 5 fighting styles, which as you progress, allow mixing between them. With unlockable's including wrestlers, venues, and merchandise, there is plenty to keep you playing. Fans of fighters and hip-hop shouldn't miss this one.』
(Video Games) 『I bought this for my husband and he loves it. He plays it over and over again. It has story lines and gaols to meet so even I was entertained to watch him play! It was great and a lot of fun. A game to be played agaian and again!』
(Def Jam: Fight For NY) 『Classic album hands down. I got this game around the same it came out and its still fun now days. You can get something new out of it every time you play it. One of the good things, is that you can change the way you wan't your player to look etc and customize his face, eyes etc. Good option.
The graphics, well i'll say for the type of game it is they are decent. Nothing good or nothing really bad. Just normal lookin graphics for Xbox. They dont push the limit or anything, but the same is so good graphics arent a biggie you know? But they did a good job on making the characters look like the actual people.
The sound is one of the best on the game. The music choices they use on the game are very good choices. I like a majority of the songs that are on the game, after you beat it I think, you can go to the sound and listen to ALL the songs! And in the storyline, the characters talk etc, really good.
The control, very very good. The game is very easy to learn in my opinion. Countering attacks can be quite hard to do, but learning how to fight is not hard at all. You will get the hang of that easily. I liked the controls, and all the fighting moves. You can upgrade your characters stats to make him stronger/faster etc. You can also use weapons a couple times.
Now, how fun the game is. Its crazy. While playing the storyline, it keeps you entertained a majority of the time. Your character has a Sidekick cell-phone and usually after each match youll get a messgage from other characters in the game. Mainly Method Man sends the most messages to you. There is ONE big twist in the game which is really good and keeps you entertained also. Then, you can buy clothes from a store in the game with the money you make from winning matches, another good thing. You can also by Jewelry, for the wrist, neck, earrings etc. You can get Tattoos, and different haircuts to make your guy look different as you want.
So overall, the game has a lot of things to do and is also really fun to play with friends on Multi-player so play that also! Really fun, just beat the game and unlock all the places and charcters or use a cheat lol. But its a fun game pick it up!!』 『The ultimate hip-hop fueled fighting game Def Jam Fight For NY challenges players to step into the shoes of a ruthless street fighter battling for control of New Yorks hip-hop underground. The game features an all-new fighting engine including weapons interactive environments and five unique fighting styles that can be combined to form dozens of customized hybrid styles for the ultimate edge on the streets. Def Jam Fight For NY stars more than 40 of the most well-known artists and personalities in hip-hop today including Busta Rhymes Carmen Electra Lil Kim Ludacris Method Man Redman Sean Paul Slick Rick Snoop Dogg and many more. -- SPECIFICATIONS ------------------------------------ESRB Rating : M for MATUREGenre/Category : SPORTSSystem : Microsoft Xbox Number of Players: On-Line Compatible : www.ea.com』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (DOA 3 Somewhat dissapoiting) 『When I first heard DOA 3 was coming out I had high expectations for the game since the previous game DOA had impressed me with gorgeous graphics, an amazing soundtrack and a smooth fighting system. When I first played DOA 3 it looked just like DOA alive 2 until you actually start fighting. The feeling is just not the same. Sure there are more characters and new locations, but it doesn't take away from the fact that the fighting system sucks』
(What else can you say about this game??) 『Ok first off let me say that I dont really do the fighting game scene, I am an RPG/Sports and FPS (First person shooter) person... but my friend came over and said hey put this in. The next thing I know its four hours later and everyone that was there was calling for the controller. This game has some awesome graphics, easy controls so for all you novices out there (and i mean that in a good way) it wont be too hard to just jump into the game. Its story line is good even though it is a little bit short. Which in my opinion is the only downfall of the game. They have some great cut scenes and you which ever character you use, you learn a little more about why they are there and what they are doing for it. but like i said that is the only downfall of this game. If you are looking for a game that you can play with friends or by yourself then this is for you.』
(Dead or Alive 3 defines what a fighter should be with it's amazing visuals and sound, but other than that, it's ordinary) 『A step ahead from Dead or Alive 2. The story is about a fighting tournament which offers a big cash reward. Each fighter is in it for a certain reason whether it is for glory, riches, or to confront another in a fight. Now, what do you notice, first of all? The graphics! The graphics are well detailed and it's near the summit of graphic design.
The soundtrack is great and features bands like Aerosmith. Each character has their own theme song. Attacks, moves, and crashes have relistic sounds to them. The Story Mode is good. You can play the role of each character and then unlock their movie clips and costumes. There is a practice mode where you can practice your techniques. A Time Survival mode where you try to beat the enemies fast. There is a tag team mode where each character can tag in. One fights while one heals. There is team battle where each player can have up to 5 characters and they duke it out.
The character variety is awesome. You got the slow, but powerful characters. You have the fast, but weaker characters. You have the average characters. Each character is good at something like punches, kicks, crunches, and a mix of some of those. There are over a hundred moves for each character and plenty of combos to try out. The settings can set the difficulty, the controls, and the sound which is decent. The environments are beautiful. Some have electric walls. Some have areas to fall. Some have little and some have plenty when it comes to space. This game is great for multiplay and for single play. The game is a step up from most fighters, but it's not anything that a game hasn't done before. All in all, DOA fans will love this. 2d Fighting fans will love this. You can punch, kick, grab, defend, and pull of combos. The game can be beaten easily unless you challenge yourself, but never the less, this game has a thick amount of replay value.
Pros: Beautiful graphics with detailed characters and environments. Fighting gameplay is great and a nice soundtrack to go with it. Good selection of characters and many modes to play in. Multiplayer is very entertaining and the game has juicy amount of replay value.
Cons: Behind the stunning graphics and sound, the game isn't that much innovative to other fighters.』
(Not bad at all) 『This game has a lot of potential. Anybody notice the feet are too big, though? Anyway, the fighting moves are really on point. The grappling moves look good, not generic like other games where characters are automatically in a takedown or hold. The female wrestler should probably have her own game as well, with other wrestler type characters. Maybe we can have her do a guest appearence on the next Rumble Roses game? Oh well. The game can get boring after a while, with little extras. And yes, the women are great to watch in action. Almost famous for this one.』
(like watching a porno film) 『 I mean really half naked woman and very sexy clothes. It's a video game for god sake. I really don't like it and if you like porn go ahead.』 『Dead or Alive 3 gives gamers the ability to enjoy a richer, more intense, action-packed experience than was previously possible on a video game system. Dead or Alive 3 is a 3D fighting game transplanted from the arcade to home, specifically for the Xbox. Tecmo has done extensive research into the technical capabilities of the Xbox and is convinced it is the ideal platform on which to showcase the latest entry in its extremely popular franchise.』 『Any new gaming console needs to offer a quality fighting game at launch, and for the Xbox that title is Tecmo'sDead or Alive 3. ThoughDOA3doesn't revolutionize the fighting genre, it does offer a great gaming experience, and its graphics easily surpass every other fighting game on the market--on any system.
DOA3offers eight modes of play, including story, team battle, tag battle, and sparring. Sparring mode is customizable and is a nice way for new players to learn how to play the game, while story mode lets you take one of the 16 available characters through a series of matches culminating in a fight against theüber-powerful Omega. Once you defeat Omega, a short movie specific to your character is unlocked. The story mode doesn't make a lot of sense (and the dialogue is laughable) but the end movies are pretty cool, and it's fun playing through the game as each of the characters.
The real meat of the game, though, is its combat, andDOA3delivers in spades. Each character has specific attacks, such as Zack's Devil Elbow or Bass Armstrong's Stun Gun Chop, and once you get the moves down, the entire affair can unfold like a carefully choreographed ballet as combatants block blows, counterattack, and land devastating punch and kick combos. Adding to the game's appeal are the massive and detailed multilevel arenas (introduced inDOA2), in which a precise kick or punch can send a combatant plummeting through the air down to the arena's next level.
It's obvious thatDOA3was designed as a showcase for the Xbox's graphical prowess, and it shows--the game's graphics are awesome. The character models look amazing and feature highly detailed clothing and accessories, and the animations are extremely smooth. The environments are also outstanding, and feature tons of little touches such as fluttering leaves, snow-covered ground that can be torn up during the course of a fight, and great-looking water. Even the background structures are highly detailed.
DOA3doesn't rewrite the rules of the fighting genre, but its great graphics and intense fighting--especially in multiplayer mode--make for an enjoyable gaming experience.--William Harms
Pros:
Brilliant graphics
Lots of gameplay modes
Multileveled arenas keep the fighting exciting
Cons:
Story mode makes no sense
Few unlockable extras

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Great!) 『This is a great product. I got this for myself to help me lose weight but when the kids saw it, I was lucky to get on it. My son was on it for about 3 hrs stright, his face was red. It has a calorie counter, you can slow it down and learn the dance steps. It has a freestyle of which you just go as fast as you can and compete with the computer. My son really like that one. It even has karaoke but you need the xbox microphone to do that. Nice fun was to get fit.』
(DDR Ultramix 4 - Like an LSD trip? Not so good for exercise) 『Ultramix 4 needs improvement. The background is very distracting (like an LSD trip in the movies) and makes it hard to follow the arrows while you are dancing. It is definitely not for anyone prone to migraines or seizures. The grading is harsher than Ultramix 2. Whereas you would pass in Ultramix 2, you fail in this game. When you fail, the game ends, and you don't get the exercise. The whole point for us is to get a good workout in a fun way. We recommend Ultramix 2 over this one.』

It is in Party mode (when u earn it or put a code in for it like I did :)) It has 5 power mixes all about 4-5 songs long each...keeps your stamina up and builds alot of endurance...Mix 4 and 5 are the best...you'll burn a ton of calories doing these mixes...A++ on that.』 『Dance Dance Revolution ULTRAMIX 4, the hottest revolution and bestselling video game around, delivers its best dance performance yet on the Xbox!

Usually ships in 24 hours Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Myst IV) 『This game is extremely well adapted to xbox. Beside the nice possibilities to move it has a help-function where it is possible to chose between "hints" and a full solution. The help-function also contains maps of all the ages of Myst IV helping to move around. Myst IV is not an easy to play game, I would only recommend that game for people being fond of solving puzzles (difficult and extremely difficult ones). Also some puzzles contain to bring codes, others are not straight foreward. Therefore just for the really really fond of puzzle gamers. Besides that, wonderfull environments are always a great joy in Myst (I never encountered such nice environments in other games), and the movement possibilities of 360 degree and up and down viewing is adding to this joy.』
(ADDICTING!!!) 『First off i would like to say that i love the myst series, i started playing them since Riven: The Sequel to Myst. I'm not a big computer gaming fan because i dont like the keyboard and mouse, the only games i play on computer are click and point puzzle games like broken sword or 7th guest. Well i dont really play computer that much and when i heard the 4th myst was coming out for xbox after the release of the 3rd one for xbox, i said to myself, i gotta get it. Well i did since i love xbox!!! And wow, i love this game, im hooked on it, i also bought the strategy guide with it. I only played about a half hour of this game and im already hooked. The graphics are BEAUTIFUL!!! they look so good. The sound keeps you in the game, all from quiet good sounds, to up tempo music, its all there and its all good. The adventure and puzzle part is what hooks me to it, i love adventure/puzzle games and this is one of the best click and point puzzle/adventure games ever along with 7th guest for the PC. Anyone who wants a GOOD challenge should pick this game up, and since it's only $20, it's a definate pick up, trust me.』
(Myst IV for the Xbox? - I am so Happy!) 『I have been a big fan of the Myst games since I played the original on my brand new 486pc. I have played them all, and I am very happy to be able to play the latest offering.
When Myst IV was initially released for the PC in 2004, I was upset to discover that my current machine would not be able to run it. Therefore I was surprised, and greatly pleased, to find that Myst IV was released for the Xbox, and at such a great price to boot. I had been hoping for months this game would be released for Xbox, and I can only wonder how UBI managed to sneak it in without anyone knowing, especially considering I had even scoured their website for information about just such a release. While I am sure the game would be better if experienced on a PC, for those of us that do not want to spend the funds to upgrade, the Xbox version is the perfect (and only) alternative.
There are a few complaints about the game, but they are minor. The biggest issue is the loading time. The game seems to have to buffer the data into memory, and moving to new screens can take a few seconds. Return to previous screens is a bit faster, but on average, it will take about three to five seconds after clicking the move button to actually see the new screen.
I have read reviews that usually focus on poor video quality in the Xbox version. I have to say that I have not noticed any substantial problems with video quality when compared to the previous games on the PC. Not surprising, when you have someone appear and talk to you on screen, the video for this is clear, but not quite as smooth as the world around you. Let's face it; plugging some video into a world that is already created virtually is never going to fit in seamlessly. In all honesty, it does not look any worse than what was experienced in Myst III for the PC. One issue though is the lower resolution of the television screen. While reading the handwritten journals in the game, the resolution is sometimes too poor to read the writing. This is helped a lot with a zoom function to see them better. Perhaps it is the poor handwriting of the author that makes them hard to read, but even zoomed I found myself squinting to read the pages.
This current game also features a new "touch" option. This is made even more so by implementing the rumble feature of the Xbox controller. Users can tap objects and hear a sound specific to it, along with an appropriate vibration on the controller. This feature also extends to having to "move" objects, instead of just clicking on them. To open a drawer, players must click on the drawer, and then drag the hand down to open it. It can be difficult at times to tell what items can be moved or not, as the slight change in the hand cursor is sometimes too subtle to see on a television screen.
This new game also has a divergent story line that will change depending on how you treat the people and things in the various ages. If you open a box and release some beetles early on, the owner of the box, upon their return, will criticize you. If you leave the box alone, the owner will instead talk to you about the experiment they are performing. I admit the change is small, but it can be cumulative, and has potential to change the way people will respond to you in the game. This is very different from the previous three games where players could fiddle with everything without the risk of causing problems, just wasting time.
My favorite new feature is a snapshot option. This allows the player to take a snapshot of an individual screen and view this same snapshot anytime. This is a great help in the game as I have previously filled pages with my own notes of something I just wanted to be able to reference somewhere else in the game. With this snapshot, I can take an image of it, even if it is a journal page, and go back to it at anytime.
The last new feature of this game is the implementation of a help system. I myself have not utilized this feature, but I was pleased that when you select this option, players are warned that using the system may affect the storyline, and to choose to proceed or exit. Having this feature at all makes this game much more accessible to new players.
Another problem is that Myst IV was a game created to be played with a mouse, and not a controller. Using the joystick to control the on-screen pointer can be tedious at times, especially when trying to "move" an object on the screen, and the screen moves along with it. These times are not common, but they do take away a bit from the game. Thankfully there is an option in the game to adjust the sensitivity of the joystick.
Overall I am extremely please with the game. Keep in mind that the entire Myst series is a cerebral adventure, and it will require a large amount of time to figure out the puzzles, let alone just figuring out what the puzzles are in the first place. If you enjoyed the other games, Myst III in particular, I would highly recommend this game. The only real detractors for the Xbox version are the loading times, and the occasional difficulty with control, resulting in a score of 4 stars instead of 5 overall. 』
(Myst IV: Revelation) 『Great story. The game is great and is like a fantasy - scifi- magical- mystical saga version of Star Wars. Myst twists the laws of physics to an alternate reality. Good game.』 『Myst IV: Revelation is the final chapter in the best-selling computer adventure ever published. Travel through environments that pulse with life, as you unearth a treacherous scheme involving two of Myst's most sinister villains. Solve the challenging puzzles carefully consider your options... and attain the Revelation.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (amazing game with few but huge problems) 『This game has monumentaly fantastic unpixelated graphics (for the idiots out there who can't understand a single word i just said it means (pretty..... colors). But it does have a few problems.like how it lacks balance between many kaiju (that's the Japanese term for monster). Its almost not fun to play against monsters like "DESTROYAH". If you attack him at close range he will use a series of unblockable unstopable moves that take out half your life in a matter of seconds. Especialy those stuped power horn katana attacks.I got this game because i thought it looked cool. I got it three days ago and i beat this game 5 times already. I beat this game in 4 minutes and 54 seconds (granted i used a cheat code to get every monster and do four times normal damage). but no cheat code in this game is perminant to keep all your monsters and cities you have to unlock them. Wich stinks but its more fun. I have some awsome cheat codes but to type them in you have to be on the main screen that has where you choose to do melee, adventure or verses and stuff like that.(IMPORTANT!)(THESE CODES ONLY WORK FOR THIS EXACT GAME AND ONLY ON THE ORIGIONAL XBOX) you have to PRESS AND HOLD L TRIGGER THEN PRESSAND HOLD B THEN PRESS AND HOLD R TRIGGER (IN THE SAME ORDER I SAID IT!!!!!!!!) (THEN RELEASE IN THIS ORDER)B THEN RIGHT TRIGGER THEN LEFT TRIGGER.If done the exact way i said a box should appear. If it doesn't you didn't do it right.(!!WARNING!! THE FOLLOWING CHEATCODES ARE NOT PERMINANT, THEY WILL TURN OFF IF YOUR XBOX IS TURNED OFF).ALL CITIES AND MONSTERS INCLUDING "ORGA" type 863768 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar.PLAYER ONE IS SMALL type 558277 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar. FOR INVINCABILATY ONLY FOR PLAYER ONE type 152446 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar. PLAYER ONE DOES FOUR TIMES NORMAL DAMAGE type 940478 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar. TO PICK UP ALL BUILDINGS AND OBJECTS type 248165 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar. FOR UNLIMITED ENERGY PLAYER ONE type 778393 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar.FOR UNLIMATED RAGE PLAYER ONE type 159120 if typed corectly you will hear godzilla roar.
I think thats enough cheatcodes (by the way they are the best ones i have and for more go to cheatcc.com)
Here are descriptions of every kaiju.
Godzilla 90's and Godzilla 2000 very good monsters very well rounded but Godzilla 2000 is stronger.
ANGUIRUS decent attack, highest defense posible, beam attack is very weak.
MEGALON strong attack, low defense, very fast, strong beam attack.
KING GHIDORAH AND MECHA KING GHIDORAH extremely high attack and defense which are equal, low speed, strong beam attack.
RODAN weak everything escept speed, which is as high as posible.
MECHAGODZILLA 2 AND 3 low attack and speed, high defense highest beam posible.
THE GREAT ORGA!!!!!!!!! high everything!!!!
This is a great game and i highly recomend it to every gamer, its a must have. I hope you enjoyed my review. And please use this information. Print it and give it to others who own this game for xbox. Thank you for reading it for cheatcodes go to cheatcc.com they are very reliable.
』
(Great game. Superb graphics. IMPOSSIBLE to play.) 『This is the best Godzilla game. PERIOD. It's loads of fun. Really, it is. It's really fun to control all the monsters you've seen in the movies. My personal favorites are Destroyah, Mechagodzilla, and Megalon. The only problem is that the game is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too hard. Megalon has got to be the biggest problem monster. He will be underground 80% of the time you fight him, and it is extremely difficult to run from(But is possible, I know). And if he gets right underneath you, he'll come up, grab you, and throw you in one fo his special throws. To make things worse, his energy attack is magnetized right towards your monster, and the attack is brutal. Why Megalon is one of the starting monsters I'll never know...but thank God because he is one of the best characters of the game. King Gidorah is another good monster and one fo the best. Even his(their)none energy attacks are quite brutal. Gigan is quite possibly the funnest character to control, soley because he has the coolest throwing moves(like the buzzsaw throw). It's also fun to use his special teleport move. Gigan may not go far, but it's definately cool to watch. The Mothra airstrike power..I'll say this..GET IT FIRST. Mothra has got to be the most annoying asset of the game, as she continuously zaps the opposite player with ridiculously painful results. Mechagodzilla is the toughest monster here. Not to mention he's totally cheap. His rocket fingers do a lot of damage-ridiculously brutal damage-but fortunately, he is limited to 3.
So, all in all, it's a solid game. It can be impossible 80% of the time, but it's still fun and worth the difficulty.』
(Godzilla: Destroy this Game) 『This game is, in a word, REPETITIVE. You do the exact same thing over and over. Oh look, a giant monster is attacking, why I think I'll smash a few buildings and smack that monster around. Oh look, I beat the last level and the next one looks exactly the same. What's that? Another monster attacking, why I think I'll smash a few buildings and smack that monster around. Yea, I beat that level. Oh look a monster is attacking, why I think I'll do the EXACT same thing that I've done for the last fifty levels. Who created this? A five year-old? This game is so stupid that it is actually insulting. Don't even waste the money on a rental.』
(Good With Minor Issues) 『Firstly, the game is fun. It isn't as fast paced or responsive as some of the fight games out today, but in some ways I like that because I don't have to memorize insanely huge combos. The monsters are all good and reasonably well balanced. The Single Player game is somewhat short. Fighting the computer is difficult at first, but then becomes rather too easy. Another annoyance is the fact that you have to unlock monsters to use them and you only start off with like 2 monsters. I don't mind unlocking monsters, but at least give us a little more 'starting' variety.
THE BAD There are some small but definite balancing issues. King Ghiddorah is the most powerful monster by far. When flying, he can shoot you, and this shot is not wimpy. What is more, he can shoot you like this three times in a row before his energy runs out. Then all you have to do is run away from your opponent and recharge. Lather rinse repeat. They can't stop you. There is no 'wind up' to this flying shot. You leap in the air and instantly fire. Reacting in time is impossible against a half-way decent opponent. But even if you block the shot it still doesn't seem to stop the damage.
Rodan has some of the same balance issue. However, his shot doesn't do as much damage and flying sucks his energy much faster so it isn't as big a deal.
Destroyah's energy katana is another ability that can be abused. It is fast and 'stuns' you as well as knocking you down. It also does a LOT of damage. So as long as Destroyah has energy and gets in close enough you are hard pressed to avoid losing a good 20% of your health bar when facing an opponent that knows how to pull this move.
Mechagodzilla's missiles do a TON of damage. If you are on your feet and careful you can avoid them easily enough, but if you get cornered or knocked down and he hits you with a full spread then you lose a good 35% of your health. That's a LOT. Considering that no other monster can do damage at that magnatude it is a little unfair - especially considering he gets THREE missile loadouts at the beginning of each round. So basically until your opponent fires off all his missiles you are dancing around trying your best to make sure you never ever get cornered.
But the most annoying balance issue is MechaGhiddorah. His special shot makes your monster pause, scream, and drains ALL your energy. What is more, it doesn't matter what you are doing if he hits you. If you are on the ground and you get hit with this thing you get up, pause, scream, and get drained. So it is essentially 3 free 'grabs' your opponent gets if he ever lands this thing on you. That's a ton of damage and it is very frustrating.
Considering that Godzilla, Orga, Megalon, Anguilas, and Gigan don't have anything close to this ability to strip 20+% of an opponent's health in one shot it is a litte wampus.』
(Great Game!) 『But if Destoroyah really starts beatin' you up, go to a wide open space, and if he's far enough away, charge your special attack to THE MAXIMUM (press&hold black button when gauge is completely full). But if you have Anguirus, since his roar special attack is short range, let him try your spiked back. Anyways, controls aren't that bad, though because of using every button but Back(maybe so), recommended for Ages 10+. Several people talk about certain games as in stupid comments like "Oh! The graphics are bad! So don't buy this!" If it effects the game's fun, yeah, but some don't even tell how fun it actually is! My fun rating for this game: 7 of 5 stars! I just sat upstairs constantly on the Xbox and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle(GameCube) a break! I thought it was unbeatable! Melee Mode(Xbox only-mode) was my favorite mode. Team Battle was similar. You could be on the red or blue team and you did the same thing you do in Melee Mode: get points! Knock down a monster: 100 points. KO an opponent: 500 points. Style points: 50 points. Health Bonus(if tied with other monster(s)): (depends on health).

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Fight night 3) 『Fight night round 3 is the best boxing game so far, I mean pernonaly I like it, you can go to carrer mode, and you can make your player look like you, and as you go through training,and fighting you really get into it, makes you feal if your in the game boxing your way through belts, and trophys ,and keeping your record clean with no loses.』
(Kill the body and the head will die) 『I love fight night, and I have been playing EA's boxing games on XBOX since Knockout Kings 2002. The total punch control is nothing new now, and I find it very intuitive once learned. The reason why I cannot give this game more than 3 stars is because A) it has very few new boxers from last year's edition. If there can be over 500 baseball players in a baseball game from EA and several hundred real Football players in Madden, why not make more fighters in Fight Night? Also, this game is really easy. I am a true boxing fan, and if you fight with the right style it is very difficult to lose a fight, even on the hard setting, until your fighter has lost all his attributes on the decline in career mode. (the Mike Tyson punch out style actually works the best for this game) What I mean by that is... Block and Parry your opponent and counterpunch rather than lead. After successful parries, you should be able to land 3 and 4 punch combinations at will and you should have no difficulty breaking down your opponents and stop them 95 percent of the time within the distance. When I first played the game, I went straight to career mode on hard... and unified the title with a 35-1, 34KO record. The one loss was me fighting out of character going for a KAYO when I was ahead on the scorecards but didn't play it safe and paid the price. The game is just too easy against the AI.
For those wondering why your boxer freezes sometimes when you are blocked... it is because the computer is parrying your punch, which renders you useless for a bit and opens you up for very damaging counters. Do this to the computer, land counters in combination (I prefer a right hook to the head, right to the body, left to the body, right to the body or head as my bread and butter combo thats easy to pull off) At least 3 punches should land hard and clean after a successful parry.』
(XBOX Live "bug" fixed...) 『This is one of the first boxing games I've grown to love. Unfortunately, the game lacks features like themes - the soundtrack gets old very fast, especially if you're not into hip-hop.
Anyway, XBOX Live doesn't work until you "fix" the "bug" the game was programmed with. In short, I had to call XBOX support to get the solution - Set your XBOX System's date to 11/15/01. This is the only way anyone will get this game to work on XBOX Live.
As for re-setting the date every time you want to play online?...I don't know because there were only 12 others online at the time I played, which doesn't make for very good competition...considering the lag and cheaters.』
(KO Mohammad Ali !!) 『This game is great fun, high on adreline, good graphics and the best of all, lands your punch like no other :) Among the highlights, I loved the ESPN Classics where you can relive the greatest boxing rivalries that existed in the world. By taking on the role of a previous champ, you get to play his moves! For instance, Ali is nimble, has stamina etc. while Frazier has deadly power behind his punches. But ofcourse, the main highlight of the game is the career mode, where you get to create your own boxer and make him a champ in any weight class! The game has amazing punch control and is extremely addictive. On the negative side, it lost charm after 40+ fights - coz most of my rivals had better physical fitness ratings than my boxer :( Overall, highly recommended - you will love it till you get tired of it.』
(Serviceable, but riddled with minor imperfections) 『I decided to rent this title after seeing this game being played by some of my brother's friends on the Xbox 360. With my curiosity, and my newfound powers as an 18-year-old, I rented it and popped it into my Xbox. What I had expected was a good fighting title that would consume many hours of my life. Unsurprisingly, it did... for the first day.
When I first entered the game, I played a skirmish fight against my brother, mainly for control of the Xbox for the time being. He played as Roy Jones Jr. and I played as James Toney. Unfortunately, I lost the match via TKO. Therefore I lost the Xbox for the night.
Back on the subject, the fighting mechanics of this game seem difficult to learn at first, due to the movements needed to execute a simple jab or an uppercut. However, the controls are surprisingly intuitive. After a few fights, you'll have a basic jist of what you need to do to execute most moves within the game. You have to mix up these punches, just like in real life as well, so you can't just go in there and throw a knockout punch with your first punch. You also have your specialty punches (to go out and K.O. your opponent with style), taunts, and cheap shots to put in there to catch your opponent (and sometimes the referee) off guard.
The mechanics are pretty good, but it doesn't come without it's flaws. The only gripe I have with the fighting mechanics is the random pause that you get when your opponent blocks your move. When your opponent does this, you randomly stall for about two seconds. During this time, your opponent has probably knocked your memory back a few hours with a swift haymaker to the temple. It isn't much, but it gets very frustrating after a while.
For the career mode, I had high expectations. You start out by either creating a custom fighter or restarting the career of one of the fighters selectable in the game. If you are creating your guy, you get taken to the area where you create your boxer. You choose what he looks like, what his fighting style is, and what nickname he will be called by (there are some decent nicknames, but some of the nicknames in the game are just outright stupid and laughable).
After you create your boxer (or use one of the real-life boxers in the game), you go through the rough and grimy rings of small-time gyms, warehouses, and training regimens. When you enter the career mode, it's pretty immersing. The Game appears to have that small-time Rocky-esque feeling to the menus and gyms, as in it seems old-fashioned and out-of-date. I don't have a gripe against this. Actually, I like it a bit.
When your boxer trains, you have the option of choosing between three trainers. Here's a hint, always choose the first trainer. The other two trainers only boost your skill increases minimally in their specialty (Let's see: +1 Strength when I train for $25,000. That's a ripoff.). The actual training is just a bunch of mini-games. However, these minigames aren't just some excuses to burn some time. These minigames are well-thought-out and will not bore you to death when you play them at first. You have your trainer push you harder by telling you that "my mother can do this and she has an ingrown toenail!" (They don't say this, but it's kind of like that). These are a good excursion from the usual fighting in the game, however, these get repetitive after a while (since there are only three minigames to choose from). Another thing that's a bit awkward is the results of your training. Every time you train, you seem to go from chump to champ in your appearance. This is just cosmetic, but it looks like your fighter just conquered the potty and not the punching bag. I got a chuckle out of it after a while, so this isn't that bad.
After working my way up, I found that the game itself got pretty repetitive in terms of boxing. Your character has the same intro, the same intro music, and usually fights in the same stadiums time and time again. Don't get me wrong, it's a good fighting engine, it just seemed to get really tiring and hackneyed after a while. Also, there isn't any change in your routine for matches. You schedule a match, you train for one thing, you fight the guy, you win (or lose), you schedule another match, etc. It gets repetitive after a while, and that kills off the replayability.
Another gripe I have is with the mass commercialism in the game. Sure, I expected to see an advertisement or two in some of the bigger stadiums, however, when small-time gyms like the Windy City Gym are plastered with advertisements from Burger King (EA must be having their way with BK's coffers with all of their ads in the game), there are tons of buyable equipment from corporations like Under Armour, and the game advertises a bloody 2007 Dodge Charger before Wednesday Night Fights, you have to ask yourself: Is this a game or is this a glorified billboard? I don't like this kind of shameless and brutal advertising method, but then again, they did the exact same thing on Need for Speed: Underground 2.
One more serious gripe I have is with the music. I hope you enjoy rap, since it's the only bloody type of music they have on this thing. Unfortunately, for a guy like me, who absolutely hates rap with a passion, there's a problem with the music selection in the game. This could've been fixed with allowing us Xbox players to import our own music into the game, but no, EA wants us to think that EA Trax doesn't stand for crap.
---------------
Pros: 1. A solid fighting system, with tons of moves, specialty punches, taunts, and cheap shots to fool your opponent
2. The mini-games are surprisingly addictive... at first.
3. Creating a Boxer is deep and there are many options at your dispersal
4. Career Mode will suck you in the first time you play it... several hours of my life just disappeared like that.
5. No bugs. The game is competently programmed.
6. There is a level of strategy within the game. The computer will make you pay for thinking that you are Rocky Balboa or if you hit the wrong place
Cons: 1. Career Mode is too linear for mass replayability.
2. When blocked, your player just stands there for several seconds waiting for your opponent to punch the lights out of him.
3. The music is, once again, too selective and one-dimensional. It will alienate a good deal of people who play the game.
4. The mass commercialism in the game will make you sick. I thought we played video games to get AWAY from the commercials...
5. Not much incentive to hire the other trainers within the game.
6. There are some really lame nicknames when you create a boxer.
7. You can heal every cut. Not realistic, and I don't even watch boxing all that much.
Final Verdict: Worthy of a rental, but I wouldn't recommend buying the game, unless you absolutely need a formidable boxing title to add to your gaming stable. I haven't played FNR 2, so I couldn't tell you if this is a rehash of that title or not.』 『Electronic Arts Fight Night Round 3 for Xbox Knocking out the competition, EA SPORTS Fight Night Round 3 brings the most intense boxing videogame experience to the virtual ring.

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Best Xbox game I have ever Played) 『I bought this game with a subscription to xbox live in June Summer of 07. I think it was the perfect, best, and funest game for me. I dont like the all out imposible to get a kill action on halo 2 so I thought id give Far Cry Instincts a try. It was worth every pennie, the graphics are awsome for an xbox game the trap setting is nice the nice amount of weapons and vehicles, and the online play will have you on for months! First off I completed the campaign a little easy at first but once you get "feral powers" it was easeir. Im basically going to base this review on the online play so if you want to know more about the general game find a different review. First off I found a game as soon as I got on xbox live there are quite a few people still playing on regular xbox. I was killed over and over but found friends that were very nice and helped me get the hang of the game telling me secrets, glitches, powerfull weapons and good tactics. Also, far cry instincts was not like a halo battle everyone kill everyone in less than 3 seconds its like a halo and gurilla tactics all in one if your an action person grab an m16 g/launcher and go at 5 people at once if your a sniper it is a perfect game for you get in a tower with a .50 cal sniper 10 round magazine and kill 10-35 people before they notice and get angry and kill you. If your stelthy grab 2 silent pistols and duel wield (like halo) and wait for the perfect head shot. If you love traps set a claymore or 2 or 5 in a bush next to a heavly used pathway and hear the tink tink tink boom. Also tree-traps can be placed by putting them on trees for the unsespecting person to get wacked 10 feet back to the ground. All around it is a great game for whatever type of person you are, im all 4, I think everyone who has xbox should have this game it is simply the best.』
(fun but there's just one thing) 『i liked this game but the thing i did not was they say lots of swear words other then the swear words get it 』
(This game makes Halo look like a b$%#%) 『If you thought Halo or Halo 2 single player was good, then you haven't played far cry instincts. This game is the second best FPS in single player mode next to Half Life 2. Seriously, now that this game is less than $20 bucks you'll be happy you go it. The challenge of this game is well balanced, its fairly long considering you'll die a whole bunch, but it will make you come up with different approaches to different levels of the game. I highly recommend this game :)』
(FAR CRY, PRETTY GOOD GAME) 『This game is pretty good, great graphics, pretty good sound, and the environments are awesome. But I think if there were more guns than the game would be more fun.』
(May be the last truely great shooter on the Xbox) 『All I say is that this is way better than Halo or Halo 2(Although the Halo games had a better story line). The graphics and visuals are absolutely amazing and the gameplay is just absolutely fun. There are tons of weapons to choose from and the feral abilities are really fun to use. This is quite possibly the best shooter ever created for the Xbox.』 『Take cover in the undergrowth, set traps, kill by stealth, battle from extreme long range and gun-mounted vehicles and fight in close quarters.

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Compact and functional) 『I bought this bag coz I was tired of the xbox being carried around in a glad bag! It does what its meant to do. It is functional. Everything fits very snug. There is very little room for anything extra like games etc or an extra controller, its really just made to hold the xbox and its major accesories. It is strong and compact and doesn't at all feel bulky. I was happy with this purchase.』
(Convenience) 『What a time saver and convenience this bag is. My son can take his XBox to friends houses without the mess and fear of losing a piece.』
Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Alright) 『This game has nice graphics and sound effects. My favorite level is the first level "Pearl Harbor". It's so much fun! The only reason i would buy this game is if I was planning on playing multiplayer co-op. That's the funnest thing about this game.』
(Same Game.... Different Day) 『December 7th, 1941 is a day that will live in infamy to be sure. The day Medal of Honor: Rising Sun was released will not. Unfortunatly, this is a game that disappointingly falls short in too many areas to overlook.
MOH:RS starts off at the attack at Pearl Harbor where you as a soldier of the US Marines are stationed. Here is where the game's first problem exists. While the beginning of the attack plays very well, the rest falls flat to pointless shooting at planes while on a boat that rides on a rail. In the beginning of the mission you wake up in your bed and run through the damaged ship to the deck where you see Japanese zeros flying overhead. You are handed a weapon and you start shooting. It's very dramatic and when you first emerge from the bowels of the ship, the sight you see will drop your jaw at the shear scope of the scene. After firing on the planes however, you now get on a boat and all you do is hold down the trigger for ten minutes and aim at planes as best you can. I don't understand why they would start the sequence so well and then end it so horribly. It's like they got lazy and decided to go the cheap way out. Instead of designing a more engaging level, they stuck us on a boat and dragged us around the bay. It gets very boring and could have been something great. That being said, the rest of the missions are somewhat interesting, but nothing new at all. Nothing inovative and nothing that you haven't seen in the previous MOH games. The only real difference is that the bad guys shout in Japanese instead of german. There's no exploration as your hand is held the whole way through. All paths that you're supposed to go down are already open for you. Mission objectives are bland and usually get from Point A to Point B and kill everyone in between. Sometimes these are disguesed as "rescue the POW's" but all you're really doing is getting from your start point to the POW's. That's it. So, the missions are bland and boring which means that the game is bland and boring. Maybe there's a reason the game is so short. I finsished it in under 8 hours.
Enemy AI is somewhat smart and somewhat stupid at the same time. Some of the Japanese stop, take cover, and try to flank you. But that's a 1 in 30 chance righ there. The game boasts "Devastating Banzai charges" and that seems to be all the enemy does. Instead of firing at you like they should, they just charge at you and get shot head on. No wonder they lost the war.
The game does contain multiplayer and co-op options. Up to 4 players can play in split screen mode. The levels are nothing special and it's no Halo, but it can offer some entertainment if you have some friends with you. Co-op is basically the same missions with a partner. YOu do the same exact things. Some things change, like you have to have both people present to open a door or put out a fire. Or one player will have to go around to another side to open a door for the other player. Nice idea, but the missions are still just as pointless.
MOH:RS contains over 20 authentic World War II weapons. It's got a nice variation in that respect. No slouch in the fire power area which is good and offers at least some variety throughout the missions. The welrod is especially interesting as it's a one shot silence pistol. Very interesting for stealth.
The graphics in this game...suck quite frankly. There's no other way around it. FLAT is the operative word throughout the entire game. Water looks like flat blue gook on the ground. Everything is pixelated and flat. The foliage looks stupid and if you look at them closely you can see that they aren't even modeled that well at all and if you turn the right way you can see that they're flat. There's clipping and collision detection issues as well as Pop-up. Every character in the game moves as if they were a robot and their limbs were detached from the rest of their body. I'd expect this on a bad Playstation One game. Not a next-generation console. Poorly done and pathetic in more ways than one.
Not one to leave on a bad note, here's the good part of the game. The sound is excellent. THX certified and surround sound enabled. The sound effects are incredible. Bullets whiz by your head and the sound of tracers zipping through the air fill the speakers. The music, while not as good as Medal of Honor: Frontline, is still good and features some Japanese themes.
And thats it. It isn't a game you should avoid. It gives you a semi-fun romp through the pacific theater of the war. While repetative and pointless mission objectives hold the game back, fans of the series might enjoy it. A rental at best.』
(a three hour thriller) 『Im sorry for saying this but this game is not worth a second look.me and my father love the MOH series, but we beat it in 3 hours. It is very unchallenging and a waist of money. Now that you can buy this game for 5 dollars i think its worth it. if your spending anything over 15 dollars dont consider buying this game. A complete putdown to moh lover.
the graphics are no good and its bugged. it takes 5 sniper rounds to kill 1 enemy, rediculous. also u can shoot the enemy in the head and he will flinch, :P
i know cause Im acually done beating it.
i dont recommend this game to any1.』
(The Best MOH Game To Be Made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) 『I think this game is better than moh front line.the levels are really cool.i especially like co-op mode.it makes the game much funner playing with a friend along side of you killing japs.every level is relly fun to play.my favorite ones are the second and third ones.the weapons are pretty cool looking.the sound of the Thompson is very realistic.the only flaw in the game is the level Midnight Raid.its so dark its hard telling where your going.the level Pearl Harbor is awsome.its very authentic the way you have to navigate through the lower deck of the damaged ship and how you have to gun down the Jap planes while your comrades are being torn apart by the japs machine guns because your guys are shooting at the planes with a BAR or M1.over all i think this is a great game.others who say Front Line is better, need to get a life. I Highly Recomend Buying Rising Sun!』
(Rising Sun had so much potential, but its many weaknesses overshadow what could have been a much more enjoyable experience.) 『I was extremely excited a couple of years ago when I heard that the Medal of Honor series was going to make a WWII game themed in the Pacific. Due to the fact that the European theatre was being worn out, it was a great idea for EA to have a shift of location. The problem with Rising Sun is that a WWII game in the Pacific offers such a variety for a video game, so you would imagine EA would take advantage of it and create an amazing new take on WWII combat. But boy was I wrong.
First off, the core gameplay in Rising Sun is an extremely simple concept with a very linear design. With games turning towards a more open-ended gaming experience in which the player chooses where he or she wants to go, Rising Sun's linear one path gameplay does not appeal to most. The core concept is to run through levels and kill anything that moves. You will sometimes have squadmates along with you for the journey, but it is basically a one man show in which the game basically makes it seem like you are winning WWII single-handedly. The only thing that saves the game is just the pure-fun that the Medal of Honor series is always known to offer. Quoting the Gamespot review: "The weaknesses of Rising Sun's gameplay undermine what could have been a much more enjoyable experience."
Graphics aren't bad. Weapon models look nice and closely resemble their real-life counterparts. Character models look pretty good for the most part, but animations can look awful at times. Landscapes are definitely hit and miss, with some look nicely detailed and other looking like they were only half finished. The cut-scenes actually look very nice, with lots of detail put into them. Overall, the graphics at least get the job done.
Medal of Honor games are always known to have great sound effects, and Rising Sun is no exception. All the weapons sound great and help add some realism to the game. Explosions and grenades are nicely done and sound pretty good for the most part. Voice-overs are well done and help add life to the characters. The music is the highlight, though. With its cinematic presentation, the background music is excellent and perfect for the era. Rising Sun will not disappoint in the sound department.
The game does not have a whole lot of features except for the single player game and multiplayer. It does offer a few unlockables when you beat the single-player campaign. But the campaign is extremely short, only 8 missions to offer, and it should take you anywhere from only 7 to 8 hours to complete. It doesn't offer a lot of replay value due to the linear design and with the enemies only in set locations. While it may be worth the $15 price tag on it, it is probably better suited as a rental.
Even despite it's problems, the game does offer a somewhat high tilt level. The story running through it isn't anything special and doesn't add a whole lot of excitement to the game, but Rising Sun will at least keep you interested from start to finish.
While Rising Sun is far from great, I wouldn't consider it a bad game either. Even despite it's linear design and short length, Rising Sun does offer a somewhat cinematic presentation of WWII combat in the Pacific theatre. I would still recommend giving the game a chance. But the sad thing about Rising Sun is how much potential the game actually had. Like the Gamespot review said, with a few more months of development to help polish up the numerous technical problems, Rising Sun could have offered a much more enjoyable WWII experience.』 『Medal of Honor: Rising Sun for XBOX The epic saga of World War II continues with Medal of Honor Rising Sun.

Core2Duoノートレビュー 's review (Not bad for an old western.) 『This is the only western game that I own and I have to say that it is well worth the time playing. There is nothing like riding horses out west, collecting bounties on somebodys head and doing the pony express missions. The story lines to the main missions are really well done. I can play this game from start to finish over and over again. I forgot to mention that there is plenty of blood in this game, something that you wouldn't see in a western movie. Once you are complete with every mission there really is nothing left to do, unless you want to shoot up a town to start a showdown which won't last very long. You are even left over with alot of money and once you buy every available item there is nothing left to buy not even a farm or a house.』
(what the heck) 『I have played and beaten this game a couple of times, and have to say it is a good shoot and run game. you have a story line to follow and a few good side missions to keep you busy. the story line is short I think and the side missions easy, but what I hate about this game is the fact that you are suppose to get certain items for finishing the side missions. well you get the items but not during the game. BUT AT THE END OF THE GAME. you get cool items like the cannon gun that shoot cannon balls, a horse that dosnt get tired or dosnt get killed, but like I said you get them at the end of the game. The game is over so you are rideing this new horse and shooting cannon balls at nothing no one to shoot at and nothing to do. and start a new game want help cant take the items with you. when you start a new game you start from scratch. so overall a good fun game but no extras.』
(fast and easy transaction!) 『We originally rented this game from a video store and our 2 boys LOVED playing it soooo much that we wanted to buy it for them. They have almost completed the whole game ALREADY! Thank you!』
(Very Fun Game) 『I had Trouble At The Begining But Flew Thro The Rest Of The Game Very Fun And Additing I Rate This Game With All 5 Stars』
(GTA: OLD WEST? 7.75 OUT OF 10) 『I don't like western movies. Mostly because they're boring and not very interesting to watch. The only western movie I actually liked was 3:10 To Yuma, it was an enjoyable movie that every moviegoer should see. Gun is one of the only western games ever made, and there are reasons for that (a.k.a. the porno game Custer's Revenge for Atari 2600). Gun seems to want to be GTA, except in the Old West, and it could have been a spectacular one if developer Neversoft had worked out some kinks in the design choices. Regardless, Gun is an enjoyable romp of a third-person shooter. It's no Resident Evil 4, Max Payne or Advent Rising, but it's fun. WHAT THE GAME IS: You take the role of a man named Colton who is seeking revenge for the murder of his father during a hectic gun battle on a steam boat. So he's hunting a psychotic man known as "The Preacher" and travels to many western towns in search of this man to kill him. GRAPHICS: This game still holds up pretty well for a game from 2005, but I have some gripes about the level designs because they're a bit boring and some of the towns in the game look too much alike. Overall though it looks pretty good, and it's loaded with gore. MUSIC: Fits the western theme nicely, and it doesn't suck either especially during the gun battles. SOUND: The voice-actors are actually pretty good, the way the guns sound seem accurate, and the explosions are a nice touch as well. GAMEPLAY: As I said before, this game is a third-person shooter, and it is a bit of first-person as well. You mostly spend your time shooting Indians to protect bridges, wagons, and towns from being destroyed. You also kill some bandits too. You can buy items on this game as well, and you money comes from completing missions and side-missions like hunting down a wanted fugitive or killing whole groups of bandits. The aiming seemed to be accurate, but it felt like there was some collision detection problems. You can kill enemies most of the time, but the detection is there at times. I loved how you can blow an enemy's head off with a well-placed shot. You can also scalp your enemies if they're still alive on the ground with your trusty knife. You build things like molotov cocktails and set things on fire like people, dogs, and horses. You spend a lot of your time riding horses and even complete some training on how to ride them. To recover your health you drink Whiskey with a simple press of up on the d-pad. You can even make horses trample people on the streets of western towns. You can sneak up behind someone and take them hostage or kill them. This game is loads of fun and there is a lot to do. After all these good things why only a 7.75? The missions are over too soon and some of the wanted missions feel too much alike. But the game does manage to make you forget these problems most of the time. OVERALL: It's worth a buy, and it's not very expensive either. So it won't kill you to try this game. THE GOOD: Lots of blood, lots weapons, lots of enemies to kill, interesting story, funny ways of recovering health, horse-riding is fun, good actors, tons of missions, good music, easy game, and good graphics. THE BAD: Missions are over too soon, some missions are too much alike, and some collision detection problems.』 『New and savage ways to punish - Stealthily sneak up and attack your enemies, use them as cover, stab, shoot, or scalp them.
