Postal 2

Description

Postal 2 is the sequel to Postal, the gritty, violent, over-the-top game that was the target of almost every politician’s speech about violence in video games. Once again, the player takes on the role of Postal Dude, a normal (comparatively normal, anyway) guy living in Paradise, Arizona. The game is composed of a five day week, Monday to Friday, where the player must accomplish various errands. There is no time limit and errands can be done whenever the player feel like it. Errands range from getting a carton of milk (buying it or stealing it, player’s choice) to cashing a cheque at the bank (either wait in line or kill everyone, again, player’s choice). The game is as violent as you are, meaning the player can go through the majority of the game without killing someone or beating up someone, but can also go through it killing and decapitating every one the player comes across.

For killing needs, the player has a plethora of ways to dispatch people: kick them, urinate on them (making them vomit), shoot them, bash them with a shovel, throw gas on them and set them ablaze, leaving behind a charred corpse, and if the player wants to be stealthy, it is possible to pick up a cat and stick a shotgun into its rear end to use it as a silencer. One of the similarly over the top weapons is a decapitated cow’s head filled with anthrax, which will cause everyone in the immediate area to gag, throw up, and eventually die.

The game uses the Unreal Warfare engine, and comes packed with the Warfare editor, allowing the player to create new people, levels, or even entire mods. …

Chaos Legion

Description

The story of Chaos Legion is based on a light novel of the same name, written by the Japanese author Tow Ubukata. The events begin in the year 791 A.S. (Anno Satanis). The protagonist of the game is a Knight of the Dark Glyphs named Sieg Wahrheit. His best friend, Victor Delacroix, blames him for the death of Siela, Victor’s sister and Sieg’s lover. Unable to contain his despair, Victor decides to “purify” the sins of the world by unleashing hordes of monsters and finding three sacred glyphs to resurrect the evil spirit Azrail, who would eventually obliterate all existence.

Chaos Legion is an action game with a heavy emphasis on melee combat. The game’s stand-out feature is Sieg’s ability to summon the so-called Chaos Legions. Named after various emotions (Guilt, Hatred, Malice, etc.), these Legions have different combat styles, strengths, and weaknesses. Sieg himself is weakened once a Legion is being summoned, and has to rely on their powers to survive. The legions can be assigned general combat tactics, but are otherwise controlled by the AI. They can be upgraded during the course of the game, increasing their attack power, duration of their presence, etc. …

Description

The game starts with an opening crawl resembling the ones featured in the Star Wars films. Further story details are presented through the game’s instruction manual, pre-mission briefings, characters’ conversations during the game and in-game cut scenes. During the Trade Federation’s initial invasion of Theed, Lieutenant Gavyn Sykes and Captain Kael are able to escape the capital and head into the surrounding farmland. The two attempt to protect civilian farmers, but Federation presence is too strong, and they retreat into the nearby swamps. There they learn of a smuggler hidden in the mountains who might aid them. With the help of farmer Ved Deviss, Sykes and Kael find Borvo the Hutt. Borvo agrees to assist the resistance movement against the Trade Federation after the group helps him escape Federation forces.

In their first strike against the Trade Federation, Kael, Sykes, Ved, Lutin Hollis and Kol Kotha, a mercenary agent of Borvo’s, destroy the communications satellite Comm 4. The satellite’s destruction temporarily disables a Federation base on the planet, allowing the resistance to successfully attack it and destroy numerous droids and heavy equipment. During the fight, Sykes commandeers a Federation gunboat and uses it to liberate labor camps along the Andrevea River, escorting the freed prisoners to a rendezvous point among ruins to the north. …

1st Century After Tsunami 2265

Description

It’s the year 2118 and a cataclysmic seaquake has enveloped not only Japan, but a sizeable portion of the world. Those who remain alive ally themselves, and for the first time the world is united under a single flag; a nation known as the Terrestrial Republic. Power-hungry corporations and their leaders, however, have seized the opportunity to lord over self-proclaimed kingdoms, battling one another for land and scant resources. A mysterious energy source known as ELENA (Earth Light Energy Alpha) sits at the center of the conflict. In the roles of both Naoko Hikari and Neon Shima, you must venture through 13 levels spread across eight environments in this third-person shooter. Utilizing the graphical rendering technique known as “cel-shading,” Tsunami 2265 attempts to mirror the visuals found in Japanese cartoons known as anime.

Gameplay is split into two distinct styles: the first has you piloting one of a variety of mechs armed with missiles and a laser weapon, both of which have infinite supplies of ammunition. Populating these shoot-em-up sections of the title are enemy mechs and robots that must be dispatched in order to continue unhindered. The second style of play comprises a few “adventure” levels interspersed between the action-oriented mech levels. Here, players must leave the safety of their mech and head out on foot. In these levels players need to find keys or manipulate objects in order to gain access to secured areas, while armed only with a basic pistol for self-defense. You’re given a handful of chances to complete each level; lose all of them all and you’ll need to restart the level from the beginning. …

Prison Break – The Conspiracy

Description

The story of Prison Break: The Conspiracy is based on the first season of the TV series Prison Break.

The original story of the series is dedicated to the young engineer Michael Scofield and his elaborate plan to rescue his brother Lincoln Burrows, who was falsely accused of murder and is now awaiting execution in the Fox River prison.

In the game, however, the player does not control Michael, but a character who was not present in the TV series: Tom Paxton, an agent for “The Company”, the main villainous organization of Prison Break. His mission is to get into Fox River prison and report to the company about Michael’s attempts to escape with his brother. The original story serves therefore as a background for Paxton’s experiences in the prison. …
