pretty simple, you tell us how you feel about a game you are playing, have played, whatever. Rate it on a scale 1-10 1 being low, 10 being high. you can rate it in graphics, gameplay, story, whatever the hell you feel like, just include one general 1-10 rating as an overall type thing.

Chronicles of Riddick (xbox)

Graphics 9.5 only thing i've seen that's better is the DOA games and Ninja Gaiden

gameplay 8 Some of the moves take getting used to, but the alternating 3'rd person and 1st person gameplay actually works very well

Story 9 how can you argue with this. If you like the running story, pick the game up, it explains some shit.

sound and music 8. Music dosn't really stand out at all, but the sound effects are nice, especially if you have a good sound system hooked up. Nothing like hearing bullets fly by in surround sound.

overall, 9. halo didn't even get a 10 from me, so don't feel bad. So far the only ones that did were ninja gaiden, and Morrowind.

Devil May Cry

Graphics-9/10 sure theres better stuff out there but u have to consider this game came out a few years ago

Gameplay-7/10 very well done battle system with a fighting style for everybody to choose from. The camera is my only complaint here and while its not horrendous like in Shinobi its a bit frustrating when the entire battle ur involved in is blocked off by a blade of grass.

Story-8/10 excellent idea just not gotten across very well thanks to bad translation

Music-8/10 the music is great as it switches smoothly from battle and boss music back to the eerie normal game music. Voice acting left something to be desired but thats Capcom for you. The sword and gun sounds were a bit generic but still good and its not something u take too much notice of during a fight.

Overall----8.5/10 too bad the same cant br said for the sequel

predictable old me. im going with "warhammer 40,000 dawn of war" on the pc.

story : as real time strategy games go the campaign story is pretty complex, but it does make more sense if you are a fan of the tabletop game. that said most people will get the classic strugle between good and evil, 8/10 for the story.

graphics: the graphics are pretty clean allowing the player to zoom in on the action without revealling to many mistakes. obvously the more ram and better graphics card you have the cleaner the graphics are.9/10

gameplay: the bigey. dawn of war has some interesting feture that make gameplay truly excellent. the use of moral and cover can both hinder and help the player. different weapons can cause more damaging affects to moral. making the squad less effective in a fight. 10/10

an overall rating of 8/10 for dawn of war. while the game is excellent it could have benefitted from more playeble races for skirmish. also the option to play the campaign from a different perpective would have been good. still go buy it play cos it is the best rts available
