Needless to say, Gamerman likes it.

Whattya guys think? I for one am waiting daily for the release of this game. Gamerman can never get enough of Kingdom Hearts! Leave your comments and discuss some good ol' Heartless killing.

Bully: Scholarship Edition

Before Gamerman heads to school, there's one game I would REALLY like to review.
So here goes my second review!

Bully: Scholarship Edition for the PC
Photobucket


Now let's start with..

Story
This game's story isn't nothing groundbreaking though it isn't the premise that is eye-catching, it's the way they use it. The plot starts off with Jimmy, an obviously bad-egg, being dropped off at a new private school because he was expelled from another. There he befriends... and then beats up.. then hooks up with ;). This is an anarchist approach to school and it's a doggy dog world at Bullsworth Academy. The game doesn't take too many different approaches with the way things are usually done but instead polishes them and proves that there is no bland storyline, just bad writing!

Can't touch this

The story will keep you hooked from start to finish, there were a couple of 5 hour sessions I had because I just could not stop. 


Gameplay
This game is FUN. No question about it. If you've ever played any of the Grand Theft Auto series, you'll know why. The freedom this game gives you is enormous and Gamerman LOVES it! The gameplay is real simple now.. You are either beating stuff up or playing mini-games so you can beat stuff up better. The perfect man's game.

ROUNDHOUSE KICK!

There are different arrays of weapons coming from slingshots to potato launchers to eggs, this game just throws everything at you. One of the really fun things about being in a school setting is that there are classes to attend that help you overall with the game, even if it's just a bonus to health when you're kissing the ladies. I doubt you'll do most of the mini-games however, they are optional (depending on how fast you can run away). Instead of doing all the mini-games, I just did all the story missions. But that's me, I'm glad they put them in there because they ARE fun.

Graphics
They're aight. This game is new-old. It's kind of old because compared to graphics on right now, they are outdated. This doesn't stop the experience at all however, of course better graphics would increase the experience but they are not needed for this game. I'm not a huge graphics pusher so that's all for this section.

Replayability
Ever play Grand Theft Auto? Oh, five times you say? Same amount of times you'll be playing this puppy. Even if it's just for finishing those classes you didn't finish, trying to find ALL the damn collectibles, or just !@$#ing around, you will be back. I've replayed the story over and over and it never gets boring because they always throw in these missions that are an absolute BLAST to play. Trust me, it's fun.

They see skatin', they hatin'

Overall
This game is nice, simple traditional fun. I'd compare it with great games like The Oregon Trail and NAHHH. This game is great, you can whale on people, you can.. whale on people AND you can.. Well you get it. There's so much more though. You explore, the characters are really fun and alive and you will love to hate them. The collectibles will have you grasping at straws and the bike races will leave you with something to do. There's options and that's always nice to have. I'm seriously recommending this game because I had such a blast with it, I believe you guys will too.

I'm giving this my first Gamerman..
10/10

It costs 15$ on Steam.

Gamerman's First Review!

GAMERMAN is back, I know fast right? I thought I'd start my first day strong and review a game for all you Gamerman fans ( and the ladies too ;) ). Gamerman has just bought a big gaming PC (Gamerman loves ALL dem consoles) and he is LOVING it.

So first up on the review plate,

KILLING FLOOR!

Photobucket

This is the ultimate zombie/creature/whateverthehelltheyare monster survival game. No L4D (though Gamerman enjoys it too), it takes more strategy than your average grab a gun and GO.

A nice little touch is that there are five different perks in the game, all serving their own purposes.

The Commando is your basic soldier, GET IN THERE AND TAKE THOSE SUCKAS OUT!
The Medic is your best bro friend, he'll heal you but he's no second man to anyone. He's right there killin' some baddies.
The Firebug is your basic pyro man, he'll support you and take care of the little monsters while everyone else worries abou-- OH SHI, FLESHPOUND!
The Demolitions man worries about setting up traps for big mobs and bigger monsters and with his rocket launches and stuff, he'll do a great deal of damage to the really scary enemies.
And last, the Support Specialist is your basic handyman! He'll lock doors so those big baddies can't get ya and with his shotgun support, he won't be too bad of member either.

These perks level up with their own perk specific level ups and the more they level up, the more efficient they become. More damage, cheaper weapons, sometimes even some cool side effects (like being able to see enemy health).

Gamerman really enjoys this game because it's teamwork at a really fine point, you have to work together to survive. If you get to the last wave of enemies, someone really fun will also suprise you.

Photobucket BAM HEADSHOT!

The game takes a while to get used to but it's really satisfying once you found that something your real good that. The graphics are a bit outdated but it also gives gamers with lower-end PC's to play the game so Gamerman doesn't mind. Some complain there is no crossfire but Gamerman challenges you to take out a TOY gun and aim at something.. WHERE'S YOUR CROSSFIRE?!?

The community is alive and well with some great players helping out the newer players and helpin' them to grow and stuff. I've joined over 20 servers and all of them were understanding of new peeps and even gave 'em money and helped them (though they quickly died, hahahaha).

Photobucket You comin' at me? YOU COMIN' AT ME?!

The game doesn't come without it's faults though. It can get really repetitive really fast, killin' them same monsters and same people. The same soundtrack plays over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over.. and over..

But than again, you can say that about almost any game, so Gamerman STILL loves it!

Overall score, Gamerman gives it a 9/10.
Comment on what you think and give me games to play and review, I got time man!
