God of War: Chains of Olympus PSP

Kratos is making way to the Handheld world. God of War: Chains of Olympus is another title release by Sony Computer Entertainment of America. GOW:COO promises extensive action gameplay just like the past PS2 titles. The game delivers excellent graphics for a handheld console, heart stopping and an enjoyable gameplay, and an interesting Myth-Greeky type of storyline.

God of War: Chains of Olympus SC1

Another masterpiece from Sony Entertainment. GoW:Chains of olympus uses state-of-the-art graphics engines, It delivers incredible 3-D in game animation, cool flashing special effects and great texturing on all parts. There maybe some unnoticable graphical glitches, this will not get in the way throughout the game. This is one of the best grapihcal presentation that Sony has to offer for PSP gamers

Great sound mixes from background music to sound effects. Voice acting is great too, you can almost feel Kratos’ anger everytime he gets pissed. There maybe some flaws for other gamers about GoW’s sounds, try to put on headsets or PC seakers to experience sound’s greatness of this game

God of War: Chains of olympus delivers pretty addictive gameplay. You can execute incredible combos and some special power to use against enemies. The strong engaging storyline will also inspire gamers to play this non-stop to follow the main plot of the story. The bad thing here is it’s disappointingly short, you can finish this within 7-8 hours straight.

Good control scheme for some PSP experts but this game has somewhat irrataqting controls. Analog stick can get in the way with the movements of the character, don’t even start with the dodge roll, it’s nearly impossible to execute it at the right time. Chains of Olympus could have done a better job on the controls and some camera angles.

Blood and more Blood can be seen in the game mixed with Topless chicks. This game is for mature players, extremely not for kids. PSP action players will definitely enjoy this.

Castlevania: SOTN - Remembering the true nature of games

If you like RPG, Action and side-scrollers then Castlevania: Symphony of the Night ( SOTN ) is the game for you. Upon it’s release, This instant classic Castlevania title ruled the Playstation console for years. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is a hybrid of RPG-Action-Sidescroller. You’ll get to use Richter Belmont as your intro character in the game and then Alucard all throughout. Alucard’s equipment roster is fully customizable, you can change your stats by changing and mixing weapon attributes. Just like any RPG’s Alucard’s level go up as you progress through the game, you can reach as high as level 70 – 90 although it will be tedious and dragging as at that level state, you will be ultra strong and indestructable. Castlevania: SOTN is somewhat Open-Ended in a sense that you don’t need to follow quest or linear instructions. You can go anywhere you want in the castle as long as your transformation skills and equipment are complete.

Stop looking at my genitals!!!

You get to battle hundreds of monsters and bosses, some of the enemies came from other Castlevania titles such as medusa heads, skeletons, flea, werewolves, etc….

More stylish vampire than Twilight cast eh? suck that Edward!

The story starts with Richter Belmont – The youngest in the Belmont clan. You are on the hunt for Dracula, and then you’ll get to slay him and then the first story comes to an end. Then you will run off to the Castle as Alucard, Dracula’s son. Your main mission is to destroy the castle but there will be a lot of twist along the way.

Now that's a true artwork

Soundtracks of Castlevania: SOTN are epic and catchy, arrangements are very well orchestrated and elegant. Although Voice acting are overly ugly and cheesy, don’t get me wrong, Alucard really does have that big manly voice, but the script is a piece of crap. Dialogues are ugly.
Despite the short comings on the voice acting, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is still one of the best games out there. The Graphics, Gameplay, and Soundtrack are all close to perfection. If you haven’t played Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, then you’re missing half of your life as a gamer. Castlevania: SOTN is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace and Playstation Store. You can play it too on that Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles title for the PSP as a bonus/unlockable game.

Riviera The Promised Land

Finally some good JRPG for the PSP, it’s really hard to find a good Role Playing Game for the PSP until I saw this game from Atlus Riviera: The Promised Land. Riviera : The Promised Land features likeable story and characters, new gameplay mechanics and nice artwork. Riviera is addictive although some play may find it boring due to the streamlined combat, absurdly linear quest system and limited exploration.

Give me your best shot!!

You’ll find this RPG enjoyable if you are a big fan of JRPG’s especially if you want something new. Riviera: The Promised land is highly recommended for you PSP library.
