kill.switch (PS2) - Review

killswitch kill.switch is Namco’s attempt in 2003 to create a new type of third-person shooter. Considering other games at the same time, the general game was rather poor, but there was one aspect of this game that made me interested in playing it, that being the cover system, which has been stated to be the predecessor to that used in Gears of War and other tactical third-person shooters. It is interesting to see how close to what we see in games today was already present in kill.switch, though the game suffers major faults from being too short and too linear throughout.

God of War: Chains of Olympus (PSP) - Review

god of war God of War: Chains of Olympus is a prequel to the God of War series, moving from the PlayStation 2 to the PSP by Ready at Dawn studios. Despite the change of platform and developer, the game retains the great flavor that the other two God of War games in both action, setting, and presentation, with the only major mar being the poor PSP controls that the game requires. It is also a bit on the short side, but it definitely is fun while it lasts.
