Batman: Arkham City Lockdown Review


NetheRRealm's Batman: Arkham City Lockdown is one of the best gaming experiences you'll probably ever find on your Apple device. Arkham City Lockdown has a combat system very much like Chair Entertainment's Infinity Blade. But let me tell you now, this is much more than just a re-skinned Infinity Blade! First of all, Batman: Arkham City Lockdown is separated by levels and lets you go back and replay battles. Also, this Batman title incorporates a Challenge Mode. There is one Challenge for each area of the game. For example, you will have to defeat 10 Penguin minions in 1:30 or you'll have to beat a series of enemies with reduced health due to poisonous gas in the air.

The game is fun and a great time for true fans of the Batman: Arkham titles that have come in the past. You fight enemies such as the Joker, Two-Face, Solomon Grundy, Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Deathstroke, and Robin. This game takes place in between Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. You are Batman and you are cleaning up the crime running free in the streets of Gotham. The game shows the birth of Arkham City and Hugo Strange's strong push toward its existence.

The Verdict:

Arkham City Lockdown is a fun game with quite a couple flaws such as constant crashes. This is made up for by a solid story and fun gameplay.

+ Top-Notch Graphics

+ Fun Gameplay

+ Immersive Story

- Constant Crashes

8.5: Great!

Wipeout 3 Review for the 3DS


Activision's charming and funny Wipeout 3 acts just like the two games that came before it. With its rich graphics and fun gameplay, Wipeout 3 is a must have for the 3DS! Activision was successful with making another great Wipeout title. The levels don't drag on and this game is great for casual or hardcore gamers alike! Wipeout 3 has an abundance of levels and a load wacky costumes to dress your contestant in. The game adaptation of the show features many fan favorites from the show including the Big Balls and more!

Wipeout 3 is a refreshing game with bright colors and rich textures. Being a big fan of the show also helped my gaming experience. The game's story mode will probably take you about 6 hours to complete, but believe me, the time flies! I didn't finish it yet, but I definitely will in the days to come!

9.5 : Amazing Game!
