Fun movie. Wish there was more Batman

I am a huge Batman fan so I would love to see more animated ones with just him. This one is fun because you get to see so many of the characters throughtout the DC universe.
What's great about it: Number of Characters
What's not so great: Needs more Batman

SynopsisWhen you're on the ice, anything can happen — and frequently does. A puck-smashing, opponent-pummeling, ice-dominating prodigy, you are fast on your way to hockey greatness, and the success of just one match lies between you and your NHL dream. You glide to the center red line and look into your opponent's shielded face as you crouch down in preparation. The puck falls, as if in slow motion, as you both spring forward, sticks thrashing, ice flying and limbs thrusting. Just as you start to break away, you take a bone-crushing hit and hear the splintering of wood as your stick snaps apart. If you can't use your sharp reflexes and agile intuition to wrest away the puck, your dream could slip away forever. Are you a true NHL champion?Skate into realistic hockey action, the likes of which you've only seen at the rink itself, as you take on the future of hockey gaming in NHL 11. This time, as you take it to the ice, every deke, hip check and scramble is in revolutionary, real-time, physics-triggered realism. With a pioneering physics engine, NHL 11 reacts to your every move with precision for the most authentic hockey experience available. Use all-new and enhanced skills as you strive for the Canadian Hockey League's Memorial Cup for the first time in a thrilling new career mode and celebrate your glories in banner-raising ceremonies. With NHL 11, the ice action has never been so real, and if you're lucky, neither has your puck prowess.

Fun but hard

I have never been that great at the game and this one is pretty hard. They have changed that passing in this game. Instead of on the initial press of the pass button the pass will not happen tll you let go. The longer that you hold it the harder the pass is.
This game is the most realistic game out there for sports.
What's not so great: passing

Really Fun Game
on October 7, 2010
Posted by: MIKEoftheDEAD24
from Naperville, IL
I was never really a Halo fan. Reach has changed that. The online is super fun and I can not wait to get home and play more. I was happy I did not have to play Hammers or swords. Swat is probalby the best multiplayer part of the game.
I wish that there were more multiplayer maps then they already have. I feel like the maps on Call of Duty are way better because they are big and you can hide a little and shot.
The story was really good. I felt like I cared about the other memebers of my team. The story is pretty dark.
What's great about it: Online
What's not so great: number of maps with launch

Great ending to a great story
on July 21, 2010
Posted by: MIKEoftheDEAD24
from Naperville, IL
This was an outstanding game. If you have played them before or you have not this is a must play game for anyone. Kratos is one of the best characters in all of video game history. This game is not for the kids. The only thing that I was disappointed in was that the God bosses were not rally that hard and I wish that each and every one of the battles was as epic as the Colossus of Rhodes in the second game. The graphics might be the best that I have ever seen. Everyone looks so life like.
What's great about it: Graphics, story, Kratos being brutal
What's not so great: Boss battles

Great game. Way better then the first.
on December 2, 2009
Posted by: MIKEoftheDEAD24
from Naperville, IL
This is an excellent game. I like it better then the first. The first was very repetitive and later in the game you could not walk 10 feet before getting attacked by the guards. This time it is so much better.
First you can now bring your notoriety down so guards will not attack you all the time. You can rip down wanted posters, bribe heralds, or kill politicians.
When you unlock the level in the game you can start to rebuild your family villa. The small town and home looks very dark and dingy when you get there. The more money you get from missions and treasure boxes you can take that money and put it to the up keep of your villa. This is fun to do but it is not going to affect the story if you skip it. The town will start to give you discounts on weapons, armor, etc. It will also start to generate more money for you that you will be able to collect and spend on those things.
Finding assassins tombs is fun too. You will find them on the map but have to find the secret entrance and then have to go through the building or tomb to find the resting place of the assassin. Finding all of these will allow you to unlock Altair's armor from the first game.
These are just a few of the great things about the game. I recommend picking it up. Just a great story game that I am still working on to finish.
What's great about it: Missions follow the story. Help build your family villa.

Great Game
on November 16, 2009
Posted by: MIKEoftheDEAD24
from Naperville, IL
This is a great game. The story line was very interesting but very short. There is a terrorist level that will make you think when you play it. At the beginning of the game they say you can skip it but it does get you thinking which made the stroy better.
The multiplayer is top notch. The guns are pretty cool and there are alot less perks to get but this does not make it bad. The coolest new feature is the Killstreak customization. You have to unlock them as you level up but they have some really cool ones. They do not seem to hard to get because of the lower perks can get you alot of kills.
Check this game out it is very fun if you like multiplayer. If you are just playing the story then rent because it took like 5 hours to beat.
What's great about it: Multiplayer, Killstreak perks,
What's not so great: Short Single Player

This is a pretty fun game. I do think that the stars of the NBA are a little to good. I fouled Kobe and he turned around and flipped it up backwards and made it. He was just hitting everything and blocking my shots three times in a row. Besides that the game is fun. Controls can get some getting use to if you want to get really good.

why does Xbox live cost so much and why doesn't Playstation live cost nothing

Xbox Live Silver packs are free. This gets you online and allows for updates on games. Xbox Live Gold packs are what cost money. You are granted access to alot of really great features. The most notable one is a friends list. You will have a list of the people that you like to play with and can see what they are playing or if they are on so you can get into the same games. You also have access to videos that are like little shows that help you with achievements, show upcoming games, etc. They also have downloads for game demos, previews and many other great features. Have seen both and the money is really worth it if you go online alot.

xbox live / xbox pro

Is the xbox live the same thing as the xbox pro?
Hi J's mom. Xbox Live and Pro are not the same thing. Xbox Live is the internet service that Xbox provides. There are two types of accounts for Xbox Live, Gold and Silver. Silver is free to anyone who wants to go online but it is very limited. Gold has to be paid for. You can get different plans depending on what you want to get and this gives you access to alot of features. The main one is a friends list where you can chat with friends online and play games with them. You can also access downloadable content for games and download older games (all do cost though).
Xbox Pro is just a counsel. There are a few different ones. The Xbox pro is the most popular and comes with everything that you would need to start playing right out of the box. There is a Xbox arcade but that does not come with a harddrive so it is hard to save games or even get online and use Xbox Live. There also is an elite that comes with a hard drive with more space and an HDMI hookup for TV's that support that.
Hopefully I answered your question.
