Nidzumi: Spore Review: Mindblowingly Epic

Nidzumi writes: "Well it's taken a while but finally Spore gets it's release. Only now is it really being seen for 'The Sims for boys' but Spore also has a lot of hype and promises of depth behind it as you take your custom creature from single cell organism to a space adventuring community. Can Will Wright prove his genius again and make another classic for his portfolio?

You'll open up Spore in the cell stage which is incredibly similar to the Playstation Network title fl0w. It's here where you will set the president for rest of the game. Important decisions like herbivore or carnivore and you'll lay down the initial groundwork on your creatures appearance. After a while you'll start to gain certain upgrades to add to your cell that will help you devour more and more food. Once you've eaten enough food or even other cells you'll hop on up to the next stage."

Pros:
+Epically Massive
+Five Games In One
+Last Game Last For Ages
+Excellent Repeatability

Cons:
-Five Average Games
-Dumbed Down
-Not The Game It Was Hyped Up To Be

The 10 Weirdest Video Games You Can Play Today

From Xfire: "Anyone who's played video games for a couple of years has stuck around long enough to stumble across a few weird ones. Some are even quite popular, which is all the more reason why you'll wonder what made the developers think about making such a game and why people are loving it, despite its weirdness anyway. Not all weird video games are head-scratches. Some are actually quite good."

The stick of truth is a must have for any South Park fans. I spent a good afternoon on Goat simulator, a rare real open world. I planned to try hatoful boyfriend since it was free on Ps Plus. Disco Elysium is on my radar since the final cut came out; as soon as there is a discount, i will take it. Like movies, i like weird games too :)

The 10 Best Video Games With Cut Content

From Xfire: "The four-hour director's cut known as Zack Snyder's Justice League has led to the discussion of movies in the past that might have fared a whole lot better had they been released to be more in line with the original vision of their creators. But, as it turns out, cut content doesn't just happen in movies. In fact, the act of cutting content before the release date happens arguably just as often in video games as it does in cinema."

I can't believe they cut stuff from Skyrim. At release, it was a barebones game with a slight improvement in graphics.

-Foxtrot1111d ago

"Now, before we proceed, we'd like to say that Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is one of the best video games ever made. It's not just a fine piece of gaming. It's one of the finest there is"

Really?

MGSV is easily the worst main line MGS game and not just because of cut story content, the open world is bare bones and there's hardly anything to do. It's repetitive, samey and is just lifeless. I appreciate the stealth mechanics, the animations and the way you can go with combat but it's not enough to keep me engaged the full way through.

Kojima should have done a twist and make the main chunk of the game a Metal Gear & Metal Gear 2 remake to bring the story full circle.

Story issues aside, V has amazing gameplay. I'm not sure what you're wanting out of the world in terms of "things to do", it's all the great gameplay the series has always had. Useless filler that other open worlds have like collecting flags and petting horses would have added nothing to that game.

THE TRUTH! I don't even know how that game gets praised. The previous ones were so much better.
