Mega Man X8

Description

In the late 22nd century, humans have commenced a construction of an orbital elevator to the Moon. A Reploid named Lumine was put in charge of the project. Lumine belonged to the new generation of Reploids, which were apparently unable to become Mavericks (i.e. turn hostile towards humans). Soon thereafter, Lumine was kidnapped by unknown assailants. The team of Maverick Hunters, composed of X, Axl, and Zero, must pursue the abductors and find what they were truly after. However, they will also have to deal with familiar enemies from the past…

Mega Man X8 is similar in visual style to earlier Mega Man X games, moving away from the 3D gameplay elements introduced by its predecessor. As in classic Mega Man games, the player is free to tackle the levels in any order, and must defeat a boss at the end of each. The player is able to control X, Axl, and Zero, which are distinguished by their gameplay style: X is able to equip body parts and armor, Axl specializes in guns and can also hover and glide in the air, while Zero focuses on short-range attacks. …

Played with a third-person view, you will need to complete numerous game levels which feature a variety of action and puzzle-solving as well as completing the three tasks in the Triwizard Tournament and facing Lord Voldemort. Each character has magic spells that can be used to help out, and additional spells can be learned as you make your way through the game. Occasionally all three characters will need to work together to complete a task, such as moving a particularly large object or defeating a tough opponent. During the game you will come across Bertie Bott’s Every-Flavor Beans; collecting these can help out by restoring stamina or magic powers. Additionally, at the end of each level, the Beans can be used to purchase collector cards; these are used to increase a character’s abilities. …

Country Justice – Revenge of the Rednecks

Description

Country Justice: Revenge of the Rednecks is a first-person shooter similar in themes and humour to the Redneck Rampage games. In the Yahoo Country in Mississippi, Steve Earl is informed by his cousin Ellie May that her goat Dixie has been stolen. Steve and Sheriff Cletus set out to search for it, but right at that moment the entire county is affected by nuclear waste, dumped in the river by a scientist, mutating all animals and turning the humans into zombies.

Starting from the main, trailer-infested village, the player can attack mutated goats, cows and horses, as well as the zombies with weapons such as a fists, a baseball bat, a pistol, a rifle, different types of shotguns, an M16, a crossbow, dynamite, and a spraycan that becomes a flamethrower when used with a lighter. The action takes place both indoors and outdoors. There is a fixed mission path, but most of the environment can be roamed freely and it covers a lot of terrain with meadows, rivers, bridges, various small buildings, towns and small sites with crashed cars. Earl can travel around using different vehicles such as four-wheelers, pick-up trucks, air boats and semi-trucks. His main truck can be tuned at the local gas station or garage.

X-Men Legends II – Rise of Apocalypse

Description

The mutants from the Brotherhood and the X-Men try to forget their differences since a common enemy has appeared – the dreaded Apocalypse. His plan involves kidnapping mutants, and, with the help of the mad geneticist Mr. Sinister, extract their powers and use them to make himself even more powerful. At first, the heroes must rescue Professor X, who has fallen into the clutches of the enemy. However, when Apocalypse kidnaps Magneto’s son Quicksilver, the leader of the Brotherhood is determined more than ever to team up with his former foes and stop Apocalypse’s evil plans.

X-Men: Legends II – Rise of Apocalypse is an action role-playing game and a sequel to X-Men Legends. The player controls a party of four characters, though only one at a time can be controlled directly. Beside switching the characters for combat purposes, the player is often obliged to do so, because some of the tasks in the game require the specific abilities of a certain mutant. For example, Iceman can put out fire, Magneto can generate a metal bridge across a gap, etc.. Most of the time, however, is spent in combat, collecting loot and acquiring experience points. Unlike the first game, items dropped by enemies are random. The character will level up, become stronger, and learn new skills. The player can opt to allocate all the experience and skill points manually. …
