Let's Play Star Trek Online! It's a game with some bizarre problems (not the least of which: it thinks it's an MMORPG) which, nonetheless, still manages to be fairly entertaining. Q: Wait, Poptarts, you said this was an MMORPG? Isn't Let's Playing an MMORPG kinda stupid? Yeah, it would be-if I considered Star Trek Online to be an MMORPG. It really isn't (or, rather, it is in the same way that Dawn of War II is a real-time strategy game). Honestly, STO is a single-player story-based game where...

"What the christ?" doesn't even begin to describe this game. In case you haven't heard of it, Metal Wolf Chaos is a Japan-only XBox game, and it's one of the most insane games I've ever played. The basic plot is as follows: You play the President of the United States, and run around in a giant robot suit blowing up major American cities and landmarks.

Myth:TFL is a "real-time tactical" game released for Mac and PC in 1997 by Bungie Studios. In defiance of established RTS conventions, it has no base-building, resource-gathering, or tech tree. What it does have is a collection of unusual or groundbreaking features such as 3D terrain, ballistic and collision physics, squad formations, a free-rotating player POV, and hardware-accelerated graphics that (thanks to maintenance from the fanbase) are still easy on the eyes. It also has the...

What is Alone in the Dark? Alone in the Dark is an adventure game released in 1992 that spawned the 'survival horror' genre. It plays almost identically to Resident Evil (which was released in 1996, four years later), but with a few notable differences: - You can save anywhere. - You can drop items anywhere, and be able to pick them up later. - AITD's voice acting is even worse than Resident Evil. - No door-loading scenes. - You can actually kill enemies without a weapon. As far as gameplay...

Let's Play 5,310 5.3K 007: Quantum of Solace by FrenzyTheKillbot movies eye 5,310 favorite 0 comment 0

Quantum of Solace is one of the newest James Bond video games and the first movie based Bond game in 3 years. The last Bond game that was released at the same time as the movie it's based on was The World is Not Enough in 2000. This game covers both of the new Daniel Craig movies, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. As the game is built on the CoD4 engine, the game is very playable and is in fact quite good. While the levels are easily identifiable for a fan of the movies, they will seem...

Phantasmagoria 2 is one of the last attempts at making an adventure game with digitized actors portraying characters. While it’s a sequel in name to Phantasmagoria 1, which was previously LPed by Spiteful Crow, the game’s story doesn’t have any ties to its predecessor other than a fleeting reference to its main character, Adrienne. Like the first one, Phantasmagoria 2 is known for its violent and gory content. It also has sexual content, though it’s mostly only alluded to, with only one...

God of War 2 was released for the Playstation 2 March of 2007 by Santa Monica Studios. By this time the Playstation 3 was already released and the market was drying for Playstation 2 games. Even though it came at the end of the Playstation 2's life, God of War 2 is considered one of the greatest games for that system. Featuring a large improvement on graphics and gameplay, God of War 2 took everything from the first game and turned it up to 11. The game follows the story of Kratos, as he...

In 1999, a little developer called Neversoft had a game published by a little company called Activision. That game was Tony Hawk's Pro Skater - An arcade-style skateboarding game featuring one of the biggest names of the sport (Well, several, actually). It proved to be very well received, and has not only spawned almost a dozen sequels and a handful of spinoffs, but helped bring skateboarding into the mainstream.

It was created by Double Fine Productions which was founded by Tim Schafer, whom you may (but probably will not) remember from games such as Maniac Mansion, Monkey Island 1 + 2, Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, and Grim Fandango, which all share the virtues of being excellent games and full of mind-bendingly funny humor.

You earn each death just as you earn each accomplishment, and your own experience level and skill with the game will take you much farther than the level of your character ever could. In other words, you can't simply grind your way to victory in...
