Xbox Evolved writes: "For anyone who never got the chance to play the Sands of Time, it was as close to being a masterpiece of any platforming, action-adventure game. The second game, Warrior Within, represented some kind of teenage puberty stage of rebellion for the series as the Prince grew out his hair, talked in a gruff American voice, and somehow allowed heavy metal to infiltrate his iPod. It wasn’t all bad since at least the combat underwent massive improvements. The third and final game in that story, the Two Thrones, desperately tried to reclaim the charm of the first but tried a little bit too hard and felt like an extremely obvious and lame attempt to regain the fanbase after how bad the last game went. I was glad to see the Sands of Time trilogy to end on at least a good note."
It’s that time of the month again folks. The time where gamers collectively gather all over the internet to criticize what free games they get this month. So, who plundered the other’s fanboys for all their self-worth and gratification in life? Who was the victor in July? Let’s take a look.
MenStuff: "Bullet-time and the control of time in general have become a staples of action video games over the past ten years, and a lot of thanks can go to the sci-fi blockbuster, The Matrix. The art of slowing down time in order to act faster, or respond more precisely, has slipped its way into a number of our favourite games, and with Quantum Break releasing this week and embracing this to the fullest, we’re here to pay homage to these time-bending experiences."
Singularity man...dear god that was one of my top First person shooters last gen.
Only FPS at the time of CODs popularity which did something different
We need a sequel.
God of War Ascension. Very well designed and challenging puzzles that used time manipulation.
Also Final Fantasy XIII-2
