Injustice review

Injustice Review

Injustice: Gods Among Us is a fighting game based upon the fictional universe of DC Comics. The game was developed by Nether Realm Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 3, Wii U, and Xbox 360. This game has all the DC Comic characters for an example Super Man and Batman.

The gameplay in injustice is very similar to the game Street Fighter just because both of the games are 3D scroller. When in this game you the player is able to play as all the DC Comic characters for example Wonder Woman and The Joker. Each character has their own abilities/skills with in the game, for example Batman’s best move is bringing out bat car and running the enemy over to that a lot of health of them. I really enjoy the game play in this game, it is quite hard to get into due to the different combat moves that can be done but apart from that it is a really good game.

The graphics in this game are also quite good they are not the best but there is still quite a bit of detail in the attacks and characters. The parts that lack in detail is the background with in the game it just looks like the people that have made this game have only concentrated on were the characters go and pick up. So overall the graphics on this game do have some improvement to make the game better but the graphics are still good.

The sounds with in the game are very good there is sound effects for pretty much everything if it is not actually in the gameplay in the game for example the background noises from cars animals etc. There is sound effects from the characters when being hit and also when attacking the enemy. There are noise/sounds that repeat themselves over and over again so this could be an improvement to stop this from happening. What could be do is maybe add in more sounds to make the game a little bit better.

The replay ability is also good due to players being able to play as lots of different characters and to be able to use different moves in the game. There is an online in this game to allow players to go and fight against other players, there is also DLCs that players can get which allows the player to have new characters to play with and maps to fight on. I think at the moment the replay ability is good for the time being.


Overall this game is enjoyable and fun to play, the PROS in this game the replay ability due to there being lots, so players will have a reason to come back and play the game. The CONS in this game are the graphics because of there being not enough detail on the background in the game. There is also the sounds with in the game this needs to be improved to stop the different sound repeating. Overall I am going to give this game a 7/10.

Infamous 2 review

Infamous 2

Infamous 2, is a 2011 action-adventure video game for the PlayStation 3 video game console developed by Sucker Punch Productions and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The character that the player takes on has supernatural powers to control electricity in an evil way and good way depending on how you go they the game depends on the good or evil of the character.

The gameplay in this game is extremely good fun by being able to use electric as a weapons against enemies. Through the game the player will be able to choose between two paths one is a good path and the other an evil path. The only difference between them is different kinds of power and the colour of the electric, if the player chooses to be good the electric will be blue but is the player chooses to go evil the electric will be red. I found the gameplay to be very similar to assassins creed by being able to climb wall run across roof tops, the only difference I the use of electricity as a weapon.

The graphics on this game are quite good there is a little bit of detail on buildings and the environment, the most detail has be put into the character I believe this is because the game view is set in 3rd person so through the whole game the player will be seeing the character more than anything else. I feel that the game has good graphics but do not beat the newest games graphics like Killzone Shadow Fall, this is because the game can out in 2011.

The sounds in this game are also good they is sound effects from the characters when speaking and when attacking enemies/getting hurt by enemies. There are not very many sound effects in the game, there is also the sounds when using the electricity against enemies and to help get around the place.

The replay ability in this game are being able to go online to play with friends and other random players. This one of the main replay ability part in this game which encourages the players to come back and play the game that most. There is other replay ability parts in this game like being able to unlock achievements with in the campaign/single player mode. The replay ability on this game is good enough to bring players back to play it. There is also a DLC that players can get which is free for the players to get. This is good because players that don’t have the money to spend on extras means that they can get this DLC.


Overall this game has lots of feature in it to mess around with and have fun. The PROS in this game are the gameplay by being able to climb buildings, fly by using the electric powers and run across roof tops. There is also the replay ability with the free DLC to allow players that don’t have the money to spend on extras to get the DLC. The CONS for this game are sounds with there not being very many but that is about it for the CONS in the game. Overall I am going to give this game an 8/10.

Bulletstorm review

Bulletstorm Review

Bulletstorm is a first-person shooter video game made by Polish developer People Can Fly and the American company Epic Games, and was published by Electronic Arts for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows. There is a single game mode and a co-op game mode for players to enjoy.

The gameplay in Bulletstorm is focused on combat with the use of firearms and melee attacks. Also throughout the game the play will be able to kick enemies and use the energy leash. Through the game players will play in the first person shooter view killing enemies as they get through the game. When going through levels in the game players will come across bosses and harder enemies which make the game fun to player with having a bit of challenge. I find this game to be very similar to Gears of war but to be in first person instead of 3rd person.   

The graphics on this game are amazingly good lots of detail on characters and the environment a lot of work has been put into making this game. I think the main reason for the graphics been at their best is because of the Unreal engine 3. I found when playing the game I could easily see the detail that has been put into the weapons and the environment. I do not think that there are any room for improvement on the graphics in this game because there are just amazing.

The replay ability in this game is also good as well there is achievements that the player can unlock. There is also the choice to go online to play with friends and other random players that are playing online at the same time. There is also a DLC for this game which allows players to get for the price of $9.99, I don’t this this is that expensive but for some other people that may not have that kind of money to spend then this is a problem for them. In the DLC there is new maps, new missions, new achievements to be unlocked and I believe there is new colours to go onto the guns with in the online mode. So overall in the replay ability section there is enough to keep players playing this game for a while.

The sound effect in the game are also quite good, when getting shoot by an enemy there will be painful, shouting sounds from the character that the player is controlling. There is also sounds for the environment the player is in, for example in one of the mission the player will be able to hear falling rocks around them. I also think that there is music at the very beginning of the game at the menu scene.


Overall this game is enjoyable to play and fun coming up against big bosses with in the game. The PROS of this game are pretty much everything, the graphics in the game are amazing the detail on the characters and environment etc are so good. Also the gameplay is enjoyable there is lots of things to do so the player is always busy. The CONS in this game are very slim but there are some, like the cost of the replay ability I this is okay for some people but there is some other people that would not be able to spend that amount of money on the game so this would lead to them not having a reason to play the game over again. Overall I am going to give this game an 8.5/10.
