Released in the U.S. on June 5th, DBZ can be found for PS3 and Xbox 360. Definitely check out the trailer before you purchase the game. I mean it's an okay game, but it's basically fan-based, in regards to the storyline and presentation of the game. There's nothing big and exciting about how the game is played out. For the most part, if you know the bigger story covered in the Dragon Ball Z sagas, then this is just a a series of fights, lacking anything special.

You'll see a good assortment of characters and battles; the battles and combat being probably the best aspect of the game.


If you're not a regular DBZ fan, then you're probably going to be pretty confused as to what's going with the characters and the storyline.



Although, it's a large part in just about all games to almost all gamers, in Burst Limit, the storyline isn't the main focus of the game, which in this case may possible be a benefit to the game, as the combat can be rewarding. There are several simple attacks and moves that you can try out against enemies such as basic blocks, jumps, and Ki powers.

There are also a number of advanced moves that allow you to master the game's mechanics and dynamics. IE black and dodge against an attack correctly, and you can teleport behind your opponent and hit them from behind.

Make sure that you carefully watch and manage your Ki Gauge, as it can offer a number of strategy tips. Also, when fully charged, you can use your Ki to perform special blocks that can protect you from most other attacks.


Another good aspect of the game is the counter-attack system that allows one character who attacks another with a matching attack to get their hit in, catering towards strategy and timing.

You'll also encounter Drama Pieces that give each character a little more personality as well as have an effect on what happens in the game.

For the most part the game is ok, and personally that's about it. The variety is pretty slim to none, but the combat and character attacks make the game more interesting. The game would probably rate much higher, if only it had more stages and levels and more varied characters. Yes, there is a large list, but after you've played the game a bit, the characters all seem to be the same.

LEGO Indiana Jones

June 8th 2008 20:07
Released in the US on June 3rd, LEGO Indiana Jones has been a big hit in the gaming population. THe game is a great game for kids of all ages, but that doesn't mean that the game is just for kids. Anyone can find enjoyment out of playing LEGO Indiana Jones.

You can find the game in all sorts of game consoles, including Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii, PSP , DS, and PC.

If you've played LEGO Star Wars, then you'll love the Indiana Jones version, as it's basically the same deal, except this time, there are more adventures this time. LucasArt put a lot more emphasis on solving puzzles and collecting keys that unlock the next area.



The LEGO Indiana Jones video game runs throught the first three Indiana Jones movies pretty close. There are a few segments where the storyline have been tweaked to better fit the title, but for the most part the game is going to be very similar to the movies, although there is a larger separationg between the video game and the movies in comparison to the LEGO Star Wars games.

With the Wii version of the video game, you'll use motion controls for the majority of the game, and with what isn't fully motion control, you can still get away with using the Wii remote. IE when you shake the remote, you swing Indy's remote, but you may be better off using the Z button to have Indy throw a few punches.

When playing through the storyline, you'll want to collect all the items that you can in order to help you solve all the puzzles. Make sure to dig up all the treasure that you can, so find the nearest shovel and decode the hieroglyphs. There are areas where you won't find treasure, so you just have to make sure to come back in Free Play to unlock more goodies.



LucasArt has thrown a few twists along the way. For example, Indy is scared of snakes and Willy is afraid of spiders, so when near them, you're going to have to change characters.

Play in Co-Op mode, Traveller's Tales, Free Play, and online LIVE play. Just make sure to check out all the cheats for LEGO Indiana Jones, as well as all the Xbox achievements for Indiana Jones.

I would definitely suggest renting and trying out LEGO Indiana Jones, espcially if you don't want to purchase it right off hte bat, but I think this is a great purchase for any gamer, especially those who were fans of LEGO Star Wars.

Rock Band

June 5th 2008 15:12
Rock Band is a fun interactive game that has been formulated for multiplaye use while playing lead guitar, bass guitar, drums, and vocals. You can currently find Rock Band for Xbox, PlayStation 2, and PlayStation 3. There has not been a released date set for Rock Band on Wii, but there has been talk about it.

You can play on Solo Mode, World Tour Mode, Solo Tour, Solo Quickplay, Tug of War, Score Duel, and a few other various modes.

When you get bored playing solo or with a friend, go LIVE.

Although Rock Band was released in 2007, it's still a huge hit among gamers.

The one thing you should worry about is the foot peddle of the drum kit, but you can easily correct that by purchasing the foot peddle kit on ebay.

There has also been complications with the Gibson Les Paul guitar controller bundled with the PlayStation 3 not working with PlayStation 3 version of the game. But, Harmonix has released a patch for the issue.

If you still have any problems with the controllers with the game, you can contact Harmonix, and return your broken controller for a new one.

You can check out cheats for Rock Band on Xbox HERE. There are cheats to unlock all songs, unock instruments, and tons of achievements.
