Dreams of Tidus: Square-Enix's Final Fantasy X (FFX) for the Playstation 2 (PS2) Revisited - 0 views

  •  
    Have you ever had the experience where, after reading a novel, or watching a film, you know you have to read it or watch it again, just to go back and visit a place and characters that you cared about and missed? After playing Square-Enix's Final Fantasy X for the PS2, I've continually found myself wanting to go back and visit the characters and stories again, much like I've traditionally found myself feeling about characters in other media such as film and literature. This article explores the ramifications of the evolution of video games to story telling of this caliber. Roger Ebert may not think video games can be art, but we know better.

Wings of Armada Game - 0 views

  •  
    Enjoy the sequel to Armada Tanks. This game uses same engine, part of the art assests and is built with similar visual style and gameplay in mind so it's kinda spin-off, however it is fundamentally different. There is a big map for each level with various missions, some of them are optional, a lot of destructible scenery to break. There is also a lot of secrets and areas that can be unlocked once you obtain some key element on later level, therefore the game has quite some replay value if you decide to do more than following obligatory missions. This game is quite reminiscent to the Strike series that was so popular in 16-bit era (Desert Strike, Jungle Strike, Urban Strike) except Wings of Armada is casualized reincarnation with all those tedious fuel and ammo stuff being thrown out.
