Well I figured that if anybody wanted to know about a few games that are out now, I can review a few. Let's start:

OVERLORD 7/10

Just finished this game about 5 hours ago and I have got to say it is a fun game, but it is extremely short (about 20 hours). Very funny game with numerous puns.

DARKNESS 9.5/10

Just beat this game and it is simply amazing. I love it great story, and great multiplayer. I love this game.

COMMAND & CONQUER 3 7/10

This game pissed me off to no end. This game is not really long just really hard. It will definately keep you busy, but will also piss you off to no end while trying to beat it.

These are basically short reviews. If you wish for me to go more in depth I will just ask about which game you want me to go more in depth will and I will.

NEXT GAMES:

DIRTBIOSHOCK

BIOSHOCK- 8.5/10

Real good game. Severely hampered by no online play. The campaign is short (about 25 hours). Graphically the game is amazing, the gameplay is good and the AI is the best I have seen in a while. Still with the addition of online play would have brought this game to a 10.

Darkness is a great game in general. The story just got you really into the action. I would have to say the game is just amazing. The graphics are better than what could be expected from a game (not as good a Bioshock, but not many things are). Among FPS Darkness is one of the best. The way it gets you into the game from the beginning and keeps you in your seat the whole way.

The reason I gave Bioshock an 8.5 is because the campaign was short and there was no multiplayer. Although the game was really fun. It should take you no more than about 3 days to beat and get almost all the achievements.

I definitely disagree very very strongly that lack of multiplayer should negatively impact Bioshock's score. Bioshock isn't a multiplayer game. I hate the mindset that all games should have multiplayer. That's like marking down a 350z because it doesn't have third row seats.

I really don't understand why people think every single game should have a multi-player aspect.

Now there is where you are VERY WRONG. In your analogy you say a 350z shouldn't be marked down because it doesn't have a 3rd row seat. Well was the 350z built on a platform that was meant to have a 3rd row seat? NO. Bioshock was built on a platform that is all about multiplayer. The 360 would have flopped by now if it wasn't for Xbox Live. See you have to understand why I am saying things such as this instead of putting you own spin on it. I think Bioshock is a great game aside from it being short and lacking the one thing that has put to 360 so far above the Wii (aside from the name, still think they should have kept the name Revolution), and PS3. Now if you wish to discuss this further I will be happy to but please make a new topic because this is for reviews only. Thank You and I do appreciate you taking the time to read my reviews.

Ok well I forgot to put up a review on Dirt so...

DIRT 8/10

Good racing game. One of the best I have played in a long time. Could you use a bit more tracks. Races start to get a little repetitive. That is the only real bad thing I can say about it.

Also....

Medal of Honor: Airborne 8.5/10

Just finished that campaign really fun. Not a single dull moment in the entire campaign. Really fun... thats the best I can really say. Oh the campaign was kind of short only 5 missions, but in its defense each mission is pretty long but the game takes only about 15 hours at the most. This game was good, but I haven't tried the MP yet, so we will see how that goes.
