Advantages: Excellent graphics, excellent gameplay, open ended gameplay Disadvantages: Extremly buggy, bad storyline, almost unplayble if not patched, demanding on computer
Great game once it has been patched to the latest update which can be downloaded from the egosoft website, however if you play on it without any patches it will be almost unplayable. Some of the best graphics around at the moment which unfrotunatly then puts a lot of strain on your PC and you will need more than the minimum requirements to find it enjoyable. The game can be made great with the script editor where just about anything can be done, ... ...forums which can make the game a whole lot better. The forums also provide a great community for the game and if you have a problem most people on there will try and help you out.
So overall it is a great game especially with the open end gameplay and the awesome graphics can be made even more enjoyable with new scripts. But you will have to download the patches to gain any enjorment out of it . ...

Review of X3: Reunion (PC)
Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X is Like some bizarre ritual every time something remotely to fighter jets is uttered the first thought that comes to mind is of the wild aerial manoeuvres pulled off by certain top-gun pilots on the silver screen in the early 90s. Perhaps the concept behind ubisoft’s newest venture Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X (high altitude warfare experimental squadron) was to allow the mavericks inside us to finally execute those outrageous stunts ... ...flight simulator. Set in the Tom Clancy universe the game weaves a story in the near-future with elements borrowed from other Tom Clancy games such as End War and Ghost Recon. You play as a US elite squadron fighter pilot who is recruited by a private military company (PMC) called Artemis Global Security. Due to your outstanding accomplishments on the filed Artemis manages to become one of the world’s strongest PMCs in just a few years. During one ...
Advantages: Realistic (nearly too realistic) Disadvantages: long time to load on startup
It can only be thanks to Tom (paddywak) that I am able to write this review. He lent me the game. Anyway when I got it home, I wasn’t able to play! What a surprise for me and computers. So I had to go a long again to Tom and get the hard drive reformatted and windows reinstalled (I didn’t have the confidence to do it myself).
Finally I get the game installed and it runs! The first thing I noticed about this game is that it takes an amazingly long ... ...it loads nearly all of the textures etc. etc. before it lets you play the game. There isn’t really much of a problem with this, because it gives a very realistic game, with reasonable loading times.
One other thing that I don’t really like about this game, is that it doesn’t have any form of ‘quick combat’. This annoyed me because any time I load a game for the first time, I look for instant action to decide whether I want to play the game anymore ...
Advantages: Good story line, non-linear Disadvantages: Bad control system
DarkStar one has a compelling and gripping story line. The graphics are superb and the Ship upgrade system is in depth and works well. As you collect artifacts you can upgrade different parts of your living ship from the engine for speed to the nose for weapons platforms, each part of the ship is upgradeable and as you move from area to area through the story more and more different weapon systems are unlocked. You can play as a merc plainly for ...
Advantages: Excellent, beautiful and well put together game, immersive and clever. Cheap too now. Disadvantages: Frustratingly difficult at times, but not like the old games in the series
Hitman Blood Money is the most recent outing for Agent 47, the balding, professional killer we all know and love. I've always loved the Hitman series. It's a classy stealth game where you are assigned targets to kill. Sounds simple enough? The storyline has always been good throughout the series. This outing is no different. Blood Money is a look back at the history of Agent 47 from the view of the Government agents trying to catch him. So watching ... ...forth through time, its quite well done. As such we play 47 in a number of different locations and times. The best thing about this Hitman game (and its predecessors) is the way in which you can complete the levels in a variety of ways. Ideally you are a Professional Killer. So if you pull of the perfect mission then no one will even notice that you were there. This point is emphasised (and encouraged) by the presence of a notoriety system. If you ...
easily portable, reciever storage inside base, good compatibility (*)
