Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown | 20+ Hours Played - Review

Nick930 2024-01-13 | Review code provided by Ubisoft.

This is my full review for Ubisoft's "Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown."

The Lost Crown marks the triumphant return of the legendary "Prince of Persia" series, with a brand new art style, new story, and some phenomenal metroidvania gameplay elements.

The world is created almost entirely off of ancient Iranian and Arabic folklore, creating a far more authentic mythological adventure than any previous uses of the property. And by returning to a 2D gameplay style, Ubisoft managed to craft an exceptionally polished, and enjoyable gameplay experience.

There are a few bugs, all of which I've forwarded to Ubisoft for a potential day-1 patch. But the hour-to-hour gameplay was flawless and highly enjoyable, making this an absolute MUST PLAY!

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora | 40+ Hours Played - Review

Nick930 2023-12-11 | Review code provided by Ubisoft.

This is my full review for Massive Entertainment's "Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora."

Avatar is a first person, open world action adventure title - inspired by James Cameron's popular film series of the same name. The player assumes the role of a Na'vi resistance fighter, as they band together with local tribes to push the human RDA out of Pandora.

The game world is beautifully realized, with lush plant life and lots of cultural history, but the core gameplay behind it all - mainly the combat, feels lackluster and repetitive.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III (2023) | Campaign Review

Nick930 2023-11-07 | Review code provided by Activision.

This is my full review for Sledgehammer's "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2023)" Single Player Campaign.

Like last year's Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III failed to impress. The game leans even further into recycling elements built for the series' popular Battle Royale mode, "Warzone" - introducing new "Open Combat" missions that replace the series' signature scripted action for something more akin to a Far Cry stealth-action experience, and to poor effect.

This is not a remake of MW3, but it also fails to surpass those older games either, paying homage to classic scenes while making them smaller in scale and less ambitious overall.

I went in expecting less, after last years incredibly disappointing MWII, and the year before that - "Vanguard." But I also recognize that a big reason for the drop in quality is the incredibly short timeframe given to Sledgehammer games to put together this campaign experience. It's serviceable for anyone looking for more content to go along with the upcoming multiplayer content, but highly ill-advised for players on a budget.

This just isn't worthy of the "Call of Duty" title.

History of Batman Games (1986 - 2023) | Documentary

Nick930 2023-01-20 | A full history of the Batman game franchise. From Ocean Software's original Batman game in 1986, to his upcoming appearance in Rocksteady's highly anticipated "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League."

Celebrate 37+ years of one of the most iconic heroes in all of video gaming. Batman has evolved significantly in gaming form, starting off as a series of movie tie-in platformers and beat-em-ups, into the massively popular Batman Arkham series by Rocksteady. This documentary will cover it all, including: Batman the Movie, Batman Returns, Batman Begins, every mainline Arkham game, and everything in-between!

(The following were excluded either because they weren't relevant to the discussion, or because I plan to feature them in a separate video: Batman: Brave and the Bold on Wii, Lego Batman 1-3, Justice League games, and the Injustice series.)

Join me as I detail each and every game, breaking down their development history, storyline, gameplay features, visuals, and their critical reception, all backed with each game's original soundtrack.

This video was an immense undertaking, more so than any other video I've ever worked on. I initially planned to only cover the Arkham games, but decided that you all likely expected to see more - so I went out and purchased dozens of classic Batman games, read through hundreds of comics, watched EVERY batman film, EVERY television show, and poured countless hours in to make sure things were accurate. But even so, there are bound to be errors as I'm doing all of this work solo. Please feel free to let me know in the comments if you spot one! Now sit back, grab a drink and enjoy the ENTIRE History of BATMAN!

This one's for you Kevin Conroy.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2022) | Campaign Review

Nick930 2022-10-27 | Review code provided by Activision.

This is my full review for Infinity Ward's "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2022)" Single Player Campaign.

Despite an enjoyable beta experience, I walked away from the Single Player campaign disappointed. The game design has regrettably leaned too heavily into new "Warzone" mechanics like armor panels, bad vehicle handling, and stealth mechanics rather than it's far better military combat that the series is best known for - and the end result is a lackluster experience saved only by some decent character moments.

This is not a remake of MW2 (which nobody should have expected considering MW2019 was never a remake of COD4 either), but it also fails to surpass those older games either, paying homage to classic scenes while making them smaller in scale and less ambitious overall.

I had high hopes for this campaign, but ultimately was left with the feeling that this was the least memorable Call of Duty campaign in recent memory, right alongside last years "Vanguard."

The multiplayer will likely be this game's saving grace, as the beta was already very enjoyable. But I hope the inevitably MW3 cranks things up a notch.
