Kotaku's Luke Plunkett shares his impressions of the The Club demo:
"I'm having a hard time getting my head around The Club. Not because I haven't enjoyed the demo, far from it: I've had a blast. No, I've had a hard time getting my head around it because The Club takes everything you think you know about shooter games, puts them in a box and seals it shut. Then shoots it up. Then sets it on fire.
No, really. Forget everything you've learned about shooters. Forget even their most basic premise: shoot everything that moves as soon as you see it move and before it can shoot you. Forget about pausing behind cover. Forget about exploring a map. Forget fretting over health packs, forget quicksaves, forget cross-level sniping.
Because none of that matters."

Back in the mid to late 2000’s, most mobile games were programmed in Java, and were usually linked to bigger console releases.'.

''For every blockbuster title that garners high praise and sales, there a number of games that fly under the radar. There’s plenty of great titles that have plenty to offer but, for numerous reasons, never get the love and attention they deserve. This isn’t the definitive list of the most overlooked games; it’s merely a look at few of them.''
I'm glad Chinatown Wars is there. This is one of the best GTAs in the series. Right up there with 5 and SA. Get the DS version. You won't be disappointed. Also like to add that the wanted system in GTACTW is by far my favorite of any GTA.
I think mine would be
Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom
Tastunoko V Capcom
House of the Dead Overkill
Deadly Premonition
Sam and Max
Honestly I think this last gen had a lot of overlooked titles or at least titles that didn't see the amount of sales they should have. It makes me worry for the future of the current generation.
The Club might have been a new idea , but it doesnt mean that all of those are good .
And Deadly preomonition was hardly overlooked . It's a game that had a bigger than expected and deserved success based on the weird hype "that's it so bad you gotta play it and gonna love it" (an opinion i dont share)
Since the game came out I've been trying to get EVERYONE to play it, thus it popped up on this list, it's still not very well known in the UK
Really liked WWE All Stars, never got to play it online as the servers went down by the time I picked it up.
might have to get pal account for this does anybody know if this is a multiplat or execlusive??
but Im loving it, great game
This game is actually really fun,matter of fact the best demo on psn i've played!!!
It took me like 5 mins to make a UK account
Geez, it's definitely one of the bigger downloads (almost 2 gb), but the game looks really good and runs at 60fps without a hitch. I don't really like the control scheme, and turning is really stiff. I don't know about the lasting appeal for a game like this (it's kinda like a 3rd person Time Crisis), but I'd definitely want to check out the full version. The introduction and tutorial was nicely done (in the same fashion as "Snatch")
