Games You Haven't Played #5

Another re-boot to an arguably original topic I used to cover, here's three more games you haven't played.

Dark Void



I bought this game about a year ago now, I got halfway through it and then stopped playing it, I have no idea why I stopped, it's a really enjoyable game, with an alright campaign, it has jetpacks and guns, how can you resist it?

Phantasy Star Universe



A very nostalgic game for me for whatever reason, I used to play the demo of this game all the time, and I recently found it in a game store for only £2, while the multiplayer is offline, apparently you can download something on the marketplace which turns it back on which is just amazing, well worth giving this a playthrough.

Over the Hedge



A movie tie in game again, this is honestly a pretty decent game, the movie was also alright, you can probably pick this up cheaply on GameCube which is the console I have it for.

So there's three more games that you've probably never played or heard of, enjoy.

Games You Haven't Played #4

More games you haven't played! Yeah, that's about all I have to say, here's three more games that you might not have played.

Call of Duty Roads to Victory



Call of Duty Roads to Victory is one of those forgotten games that I played because I kept finding money around the house and would proceed to take that money and put it away. This was about £26 or so and I'd say it was worth every penny I "found". The graphics, they're good for the PSP, some very unique missions, especially the "Lucky 13" mission where you move around a plane shooting numerous amounts of planes to the floor, blowing up lots of civilians in the process.

Section 8



I found this in Grainger Games, it was £2 and it's got some fairly good reviews dotted around the place, from the back of the box it looks like a good, futuristic version of Battlefield. It hasn't even been in my Xbox yet, it just looked fun.

Metal Slug 3



Every single person I've talked to hasn't got a bloody clue what this game is, I mean, it's an SNK game for God's sake. A side scrolling shooter, which is a hell of a lot of fun to play with friends, especially on Steam and Xbox 360, the other games in the series are also fantastic but this is the one I remember most fondly.

There's three more games to get started on, I'll just wait here until you finish them all.

Games You Haven't Played #3

So, another one of these 'ey? Sure, why not, here's three more games to play through that you may not have heard of or don't have the recognition they deserve, it'll be only games I've played though, but I've delved into the darkest depths of the Grainger Games value shelves, car boot sales in a field and charity shop bags to find some hidden gems of games.

Bulletstorm



I don't think I've ever spoken to a person that's played this game, other than the person that bought me it for Christmas. It's a fairly fun FPS game, with some unique features, such as the whip, which throws enemies into the air and slows down time in the process. Definitely a fun game to play, not too keen on the story front, but it's worth it for the unique features provided by the game.

The Simpsons Road Rage



Crazy Ta-I mean The Simpsons Road Rage is basically Crazy Taxi with some underwhelming reviews, slippy controls and Simpson characters. It's surprisingly good for what it is, but you can see why people might not want to play it.

Shrek Superslam



A surprisingly good game, basically Super Smash Bros. but with Shrek characters. Very good character spectrum, a moderately decent storyline to unlock characters and it has a variety of challenges to accomplish that'll unlock trophies and such. It has multiplayer too!

Games You Haven't Played #2

So, I guess I'll just use these when I can't think of anything new, I'm way ahead of myself on writing the reviews which will come out every Friday, but I'm having trouble filling in the rest of the week, any suggestions would be great, but for now here are three more games you've probably never played.

Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard

Surprisingly, this game is decent enough. I was expecting some sort of sub-par shooter. Which it is, but with one of the most parody filled stories I've ever seen. This game is cheap as hell if you can find it and it's well worth it for the story, but it's nothing special. Did I mention Neil Patrick Harris is in this game? There's another reason to buy it.

Destroy All Humans 2



Damn, I remember playing this game all the bloody time on a PS2 at my friends house. It's a nostalgia fuelled adventure for me and made by the once great THQ and Pandemic, who've both closed down. You can get the first one fairly cheap and the same goes for the second one. While the mixed reviews may put you off this game, believe me it is well worth it.

Crash Tag Team Racing

This is at #3 in my favourite games of all time and it's by far my favourite Crash Bandicoot racer/game. I have spent hours playing this game and it was one of the very first games that I've ever completed 100%. It's full of new and old characters, platforming and racing. It combines the platforming with the racing seamlessly, with a hubworld and the actual races. Not to mention you could morph with other cars, destroy everyone else with a Wampa gun and then disengage as you crossed the finish line. Sweet memories.

Games You Haven't Played #1

So, another new series I'm starting, while the game reviews will be up every Friday, this will be up every Saturday and I'll find something else to fill in Sunday, not sure what yet. But, in this new, thing, I'm going to be listing a couple of good games that you've probably never played or even heard of for that matter. Just remember, these are only games that I've personally played. Let's begin.

Godzilla Destroy All Monsters - Gamecube




                                               





 









I've never been a fan of Godzilla, but then I played this. I heard about it from AVGN and I picked it up from my local game store. The best way of describing this game is that it's like Super Smash Bros with Godzilla characters and lasers. The game I have is for GameCube, which received very positive reviews when it came out way back in 2002, with IGN giving it an 8.5/10. Each character has their own special moves, like Godzilla has the Atomic Ray, while Rodan has the Uranium Heat Beam. It really is a great game, which you should be able to pick up on eBay for very cheap.

Beyond Good & Evil - Xbox

This game was one of the first games I ever bought for the Original Xbox, I mean, it wasn't as soon as the game came out because I was a GameCube fan, but I found it in a game shop for £1 with a lot of other great titles and I thought "Why not?". It was at that point I stuck it into my Xbox 360 (didn't have an Xbox at the time). While the game received extremely positive views, I personally feel as if the game has been forgotten over the years and it could now be considered a hidden gem for the Xbox.




 007 Quantum of Solace - Xbox 360




















Wow, a movie tie in that wasn't awful? I used to play this game all the time, I like the James Bond films, the newer ones as much as the older ones. This game is pretty creative, I didn't pay much attention to the story, it's pretty much Casino Royale but with a couple extra missions. While the graphics are, uhm, OK, it's still worth having a look at this game. IGN gave this game 3.5 Stars out of 5, so you can probably tell the game is average, but in my eyes it's pretty damn fun, with some easy achievements too.

So, there's three games to sink your teeth into, you can probably get these three games relatively cheap too, so that's always a bonus.
