Is this hack and slash like God of War? Is there any thinking involved?

Not really. You have a sword and a shield, "X" uses your sword and "Y" uses the shield. There really aren't combos to speak of other than going back and forth with a combination of your sword and shield. Some enemies require a "heavy" attack where you hold in "X" or "Y" and it will break their guard. You hit"B" to do a roll move, which you will need to do for some enemies. It's a beautiful game though and the multiplayer is pretty fun if you have a friend to play with. Worth it if you can find it used.

It starts off fairly fun, but gets way too crazy hard well before the end. It's been a while since I played the previous one, so I'm not sure how it compares. I'd say this is more fun at first, but both devolve into something pointlessly hard just to be hard. I wouldn't recommend either game at all.

The game plays like a slower call of duty game... the mechanics are smooth, the coop is fantastic, but it does have flaws. You fight Weyland Yutani mercenaries for much of the game, which is a huge killing point for a lot of people - for me? Being a huge Aliens fan, I got over the flaws of the console version.

Because of the nature of the game and the fact that it comes with numerous stories (quests) it is VERY different from game to game. Each game the monster order (and depending on the number of players, the amount), the dungeon layout (and depending on quest, objectives), and potential traps will be different. I have played this game many times in 1-4 player games and it has not 1 time felt repetitive or stale. There are a few videos on YouTube of the game in action. I recommend watching some to get a feel for how it will randomize the different elements of game play.I hope that helps.

The violence is on par with the rest of the series. You do fight things though. As for blood I don't recall ever seeing any. It's cartoonish violence not realism. I let my 9 year olds play. It's more strategy and quests type game than a violent game. Check out some YouTube clips to see what you think. Personally, I'd let a 6 year old play if they wanted to.

it has action sense, and violence but its story driven game as well i personally liked it specially because its about hacking :)

Not that I'm aware of. The other consideration is the violence. There isn't tons of gore, but the nature in which you eliminate enemies can be pretty graphic and intense depending on the maturity level/age of the player.

This is stand alone. Not very dungeons and dragons though playstyle is different

There are heaps of combos, i think even up to ten digits, but i don't think they're complicated. To me this game is relatively easy, but i am an experienced player. I would say it's worth the risk, I've played hundreds of games all the way through, and this game is my second favourite... only second to the Last of Us. But this is more of an experience than a game. But well worth it.

No, it does not... it's the first that I've ever experienced a game like this - everything you do is online/multiplayer; however, there are the following features that give you the 'single player' experience. 1) Small Squads - the online players make up about 10 of the soldiers that are fighting on the field; there are dozens of 'grunts' and 'spectres' which are part of the program (much easier to kill like in traditional single player modes). They balance it out with the 'live players' so it's a good mix. 2) There is a traditional 'campaign' mode that you can play from start to finish, but again, it's always online and there's always 'live' players mixed in with the computer enemies. 3) The developer rolled out their new enhanced 'match making' algorithm which takes the learning curve frustrations out of the way, i.e. as you get better, they match you with better players and visa versa. There's a 'training' section but that's super basic stuff. The game is just awesome... your pilots are outfitted with special jump kits so, in addition to walking, running, sprinting, etc. you can jump and get these little jet powered boosts... and there's the ability to perform special wall running/jumping moves that changes the shooter landscape completely.. Hope that helps...

It is a visual novel/romance sim. It is all cut scenes (detailed art work) with dialouge choices forming the main branches of the storyline. There is no kind of fighting/action elements whatsoever. Please refer to my review on this game for further explanation...it's a great game if you go for storyline and artwork, but if you want something a little more fast-paced and action-geared, you should probably stay clear.

If plundering loot, sailing the seas and swashbuckling is your idea of fun then YES this game is heaps of fun. :) There are essentially missions that you undertake to progress the main story line. Missions can range in length from short and sweet to epic encounters. But in between the main story missions you can also under take your own side missions like completing assassination contracts and searching for Mayan treasure, just to name a few (I wouldn't want to give away to much).

Yes, It's said to be a very watered-down version of Arkham Horror. It is like "Monster Yatzee", if that makes any sense. Cooperative aspects are there, but you still have to fend for yourself individually. At times it will feel like a horror-themed old school RPG video game. You will cheer at making the "clutch" (completing the required task on the last dice rolls). The only drawback in my opinion is the small components. Otherwise, great intro game.

This game is NOT Demonic and it certainly isn't Satanic. As for sexuality, besides the outfit you see the main character in on the cover, and the , very, occasional innuendo from the "old perv" character, there is little sexual in nature about this game. This game is more swords and sorcery. No demons and NO satanic material.

No its a single player game. All it is a a re-visit of the original game with some disappointments in my view from playing it through.Very little interaction with the community, little buying of houses possible, (i think I bought 4 but it was more of a side show not a core feature)There was a Boss battle at the end but that's it............I was done in a couple weeks bummed.......

It could be indeed. You could even play it by yourself playing all 4 characters. So for two people, You can probably control 2 characters each. So yes, It's fun. At least for me it is.
