This was one classic that made everyone know about newgrounds Alien hominid became very popular with all newgrounds users since The behemoth and Dan Paladin were very popular at the time
Since They released alien hominid on xbox i really wanted to get it but at the same time knew that it wasnt my type of game and this is coming from a guy that likes almost everything.
Firstly I will focus on the positives since i am awesome!
- The change from newgrounds to xbox simply made the graphics look stunning
- The bosses are creative and orginal
- A variety of different weapons to use
- A variety of Moves you can use such as digging into the floor and pulling enemies under ETc
- Levels When your In the Ufo
Negatives
- The One Hit Kill bullshit fair enough its common that the game has one hit kills like the old version but still when you have a fuckload of enemies coming for solely the purpose of kiloling you it makes it kinda difficult i know this is an issue but it actually makes the game slightly more challenging which this can be seen as a positive aswell if you think about it in the right way
- Multiplayer Games are poo
IF i wanted to eat a bowl of cereal i would'nt do it on xbox i would go downstairs and makes some thank you
- Some Bosses take like 10 mins to kill fair enouigh the bosses are supposed to be challenging but fucking hell it doesnt make the battle intense it makes it stale and repetitive which makes it boring to gamers

Golden Oldies : Gunstar Heroes Review
one sum can be used to describe this game
SEGA MEGA DRIVE + GUNSTAR HEROES = INSTANT WIN
i remember playing this game when i was young and remembered how flipping awesome this game is when i sorted my xbox live after a year of me getting my xbox FML!!! i looked on XBLA and i literally had lost my mind after seeing it for a measly £3.50 i bought and played it.
REVIEW>
MUSIC-
when i played the first level of this game i got that nostalgic feeling and i looked back at my childhood the music really never gets old the boss battle music really fit in with the theme of non stop action which is what i always prefered when i was younger
PLOT-
This game is about a planet called gunstar 9 the gunstar heroes need to stop the uprising of gold silver who is like an unstopable diety who can be revived if he obtains the 4 jewels so the bad guys who are known as the empire who have collected the jewels and are trying to revive him for a unknown reason probably for evil purposes.
Weapons-
Well basically the weapons system is very basic there are four different weapon types such as fire,electricity,chaser and some next orange things im not sure what they are well and what i like that you are able to mix them together and make new combinations which makes every combination unique and a very new weapons at the time of the sega mega drive era kind of like altered beast.
Bosses-
The bosses were really enjoyable when i first played my first playthrough since every boss is unique and fit in well with the music which gave it a retro hype i thought the names of the bosses were original because they were normal colours such as pink,green ,black,orange my favourite was green personally.
Downside-
Sometimes when you play and there are loads of enemies on the screen it lags but its on curtain occasions such as the 5th level with the diagonal boxes it lags like crazy which irrates me i would have expected this on the sega genesis but on a remake its really unexcusable even though you would expect it from a classic.
Another downside of the game is that some of the cominations are literally so weak when fighting a boss a fight can last up to 10 mins which can make it really boring.
This was one of the first games i played when i was younger with other classics like Flicky,Alex Kidd or altered beast there were others that i prefer not really to go into detail with such as pinocchio and some flight simulation games which i cant remember the name at the moment which will probably why i dont remember them since they were so not memorable oh yeah bubsy aws quite awesome aswell
But this game stood out since i always enjoyed playing it despite its repetitivness which in my opinion is acceptable since it was a action game on the sega genesis and their should have been a hidden opition to choose green as a hidden character which to me would have been awesome in the remake which to me was a big disaster!!!!!

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Xbox 360
erm there really isn't alot to say about this game its one of those games that is so average i cant comment on it but this is renowned as one of the hardest games ever realesed on xbox 360 which i recently borrowed from a friend this game had a decent storyline and good gameplay mechanics since people try and insult it but its just a quick reflex kinda game.
The way the game starts seems kinda quiet until the ninjas drop in within 5 minutes and kidnap some girl seriously team ninja and their water balloon mechanics are flippin nuts since dead or alive was released all the girls have huge boobs many people say that team ninja got lazy and started recycling characters for example lisa (la mariposa) and tina look exactly the same but with different skin colour and hair/fighting style a similar thing goes on with ninja gaiden the only unique aspect in this game is the bosses all the enemies look the same but slightly tweeked such as different costume colour the only time i recall not seeing those annoying ninjas that gangrape you is when your against the werewolves.
volf was supposed to be a really intimidating boss to take down but when you fight him all he does is spin around in circles wtf i wont ruin the rest of the game for you but its a constant gangrapefest

Final Fantasy XIII (My first thoughts on disc one)
well when my edition came a day late which pissed me off i noticed that in the game mannual their is a picture of leona lewis listen yeah fair enough she done one song for the sountrack but still why dedicate a picture to her in the mannual i know alot people that got pissed since i know alot of hardcore ff fans.
ok my first thoughts i like to look at the achievements when i first play the game so i get the general idea of what i need to do but to my suprise their all secret wtf is the point of having secret achievements you don't know how to "achieve" them most them are like master the cammando paradigm and shit like that.
ok the graphics of this game look fantastic but since i heard the game had to be compressed to able to work on the 360 so they look abit "watered down" to be able to play omg btw i entered my square enix members password to get a free avataR uniform PURE AWESOMENESS why are the codes soooooooo long its like IAMMA-KINGAN-EXTREM-LYLONG-CODETO-TYPEIN-TOPISS-PEOPL-EOFF.

Final Fantasy XIII (My Thoughts on disc 2/3)
after completing the first disc i though it was quite short and easy since the boss battles besides the eidolons really gave me trouble odins a bitch anyway once you move on to disc 2 i though the monsters were slightly more improved than disc one but slightly the only real troble i got wass against some of the bosses such as retarded turtle creature
bartandulus is such a bastard remember to level before you fight this mostrousity of a boss when i fist fought him i jus got destroyed and i thought i would just keep on switching to the "combat clinic" paradigm which was annoying since was that boss uses "magic amplication" his magic just doubles in strength which is why you have to destroy his magic armour quick since he gets different spells for e.g he no longer has "thunder" it will change to "thundara" then change to "thundraga" when he fist did this even with combat clinic on he destroyed me so thats when you have to cp farm luckily just on the outside on that boss enemies will keep respawning constantly which will make getting cp really easy another annoying feature is when fighting the squads of soldiers make sure you kill those bazooka men before they get to attack they will kill you witin a couple of hits after you do the cp farming go back and fight bartandulus he will be easier tahn before since you have improved magic and hp
After you should soon be at disc 3 which pissed of alot of gamers since when sqaure enix announced that this game will have free roam you will not get to until you reach hran pulse which is a bitch i know alot of people that didnt like it just for this reason .
you will also get to fight the classic final fantasy summons such as alexander,bahamut and odin and a couple of new ones which made the game more interesting but the one that sazh has is a blaitent rip of of transformers its like million year old eidolon can trransform into a fuckin lamborghini which was knida cool but i never used sazh as i main mine was lightning,hope and fang which was a pretty much balanced team if you asked me attack wise and defensive wise
since i dont want to give to many spoiler in the game away now ill talk about some of the ending DON'T READ ON IF YOU DON'T WANT THE ENDING RUINED
ok since i don't want to go in depth in this game im jus going to talk about some of the ending ok as soo as you reach barthandulus in his final form he should be no troble if you are at a decent level and have some good items and weapons which i did since i went around trying to rider the jewish chocobos which was another huge dissapointment anyway he wasn't that hard to beat than you will have to fight orphan who was kind of a pain since he had 1 hit K.O attack he will use after every 2 minutesthis boss took me about 3 tries but he was nothing compared to safer sephiroth from final fantasy vii the ending to me was kinda a blur since to much shit was happening at the same time and i was baffled this happended when i think fang and vanielle turned into ragnarok and which i think created a new planet i think anyway this is the only time in the game where lightning actually smiles similar to cloud from final fantasy vii advent children they dedicated a whole song to him man anyway the game was good but it could have been game of the year with the hype about its launch since i didn't go to the official oxford street launch which annoyed me since i found out 2 days after about the launch anyways gd game recommeneded purchase for RPG lovers and Final Fantasy fans

Bout Time : Aliens Vs Predator review
i haven't done a review in ages but its about time i did one.........
Aliens vs Predator is a pretty much straight foward game you can choose to be the alien the predator or the marine the one i consider myself the best with is the alien since i am good at stealth i can't state this enough but the most annoying feature about this game is that when your the alien or the predator you can stealth kill people when you are behind your opponents when you press x/square this is annoying online for one reason when you in the middle of fighting someone and the start running away when your chasing them there is always one dickhead who follows you and stealth kills you another fucking annoying feature is when you stealth kill someon e and someone stealth kills you straight after its kinda like a domino effect and has happened to me constantly on xbox live
Another annoying feature about this game is the marine there is no skill when you shoot you can't aim in so basically its spray or prey i find myself constantly being sprayed at by marines which pisses me off since their guns can really fuck you up at close range.
Like the marine predators mainly have some next weapon that can kill you instantly if charged up to the max my favourite weapon for the predator is the combi stick since its a instakill and takes some experience to use espiacally on aliens that are aware that you are holding it

DEAD OR ALIVE 4
ok even tho i played this game ages ago this made me cry online the arcade mode was ok ok now to do the pros
ok fighting enviroment overall amazing not up to ff 13 standards but best i have seen in a fighting game so far
arcade = arcade is decent since there is a storyline with each character and this gets the gamer even the avid gamer interested in the story which was a good accomplishment a couple more cutscenes wouldn't have hurt though ok
wtf skimpy costumes = when i was achievement hunting for this game i was trying to collect all of the character costumes i got about 75% then i wanted to see them all so i was looking through the girls costumes they might as well be naked im just sayin
reversal= the reversal similar to smackdown vs raw but with a difference that one actually made sense when i played arcade on hard this pissed me off since i got constantly reversed and K.O'd
ok sorry i really need to talk about this because its so annoying fair enough when your against a final boss your expecting a certain level of toughness but this boss with a 4 hit combo can wipe your health bar i remember this boss wiped me out in less than 5 seconds once after about 2 hours i actually won only to get a 15G achivement i was like never again and i havent played the game since
WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 MORE ok quickly the online is terrible they should match you with people around your level but no you get people that play the game so much they reverse everything and i disconnect and play something else oh yh the fuckin lag everytime i swear someone put lagswitch on
