Gunman Clive Review - eShop Nintendo 3DS

Thanks to digital distribution have learned that independent games can be as bright as those produced by large teams. Clearly, development of one or two people has its limits, but that does not stop when the authors will put their love and effort, the results can be magnificent. This is the case of Clive Gunman, an action-platform game created by two brothers from Hörberg Productions and despite offering a limited time of play, he does it with grace, taste, variety and charisma. If you like this genre and you have a 3DS, you can not overlook this gem born in iOS but reaching the laptop to deliver a more visually appealing while more playable thanks to precise controls.

Cowboy And Jumps

Gunman Clive offers a classic combination of action and platforms in two dimensions, where we take the role of Clive, a nineteenth-century cowboy in a Wild West full of thugs and outlaws. Mayor Johnson's daughter has been kidnapped and have to come to the rescue, a journey that will surprise us for many reasons. Interestingly, we can also start the game as Ms. Johnson, the kidnapped, who come to the rescue of a cowboy (presumably Clive himself, since history does not speak of this.) In both cases, we have to go shooting scenarios with different types of weapons to criminals and dangerous animals, dodging gunfire while trying not to fall into the void. At first we will visit areas with buildings typical of the times that require us to measure the shot to hit the enemy when he looks out windows, stops to shoot covered in boxes, or all those who await our arrival.

We will repeat this mechanic to dodge, jump and shoot at the right time in the style Mega Man ​​until, when it seems that the game is limited to that, we face challenges clearly inspired platformer Mario Bros series and several mechanics who cliché completely unmarked originally proposed. Best of all is that you do not overdo it progressively and repetition, something that we felt fantastic and clearly playing in their favor, but is also guilty of the short duration of the title. Similarly, Clive Gunman flees full of game design that forces the player to retrace our steps, so that we are always moving forward and discovering new screens, back to an era where entertainment video games player took precedence over duration.

Very quick, but replayable

We place special emphasis on the game is very short (it took us an hour just terminárnoslo in the first game on normal) but so satisfying it is, we wanted to play with him. We have three levels of difficulty (easy, normal, hard) and two characters with differences in life, speed and jumping. Moreover, when we finish the game first to unlock a new character for their particular motivated us to enjoy ourselves again. There are markers of time and no damage completed at the end of each phase, which encourage those gamers who want to overcome again and again. Screens are ideal for very short play on a laptop and can play them back on a map selecting style New Super Mario Bros. Up to three time per level records, but unfortunately do not get early and we have no ratings online or via StreetPass, a shame because they are always helpful to replay levels. We also have three slots that allows us to have up to three saved games, ideal for those who want to have the games with all three characters.

Final Note: 8.5

RetroReview - Pokémon Gotta catch em' all!

If you ever dreamed of a new world full of new creatures within your pocket sure you are a fan of Pokémon. In this review we help you to better understand where they came from these friends that today you adore and with whom, surely, have shared several adventures, we invite you to catch all the hidden secrets behind this great saga!

These formidable creatures took the world by storm on February 27, 1996 the company developed by Game Freak, adapting to the popular Nintendo console, the GameBoy. Put on sale to the public in Japan, this game reached a great popularity quickly, its early versions Aka & Midori Pocket Monster (Pokemon Red and Green in English) offered to players long hours of entertainment with the news that had this product. Then I will make known some of the same mode of explaining the game and as it was at the time game

The game starts in Pallet Town, specifically in the Kanto area (this is not specified in the game itself, only in later versions). In the small town lives the player and his opponent, apparently this rivalry held since childhood, the latter was the grandson of the world renowned Pokémon researcher, Professor Oak, who want both start in the world of pocket monsters therefore donates his three precious rare Pokemon, Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle. Oak gives one to each. Appearing friendly, the teacher gives us the first choice but then we realize that it is part of the difficulty of the game because our opponent will choose the type of Pokemon that is strong against ours.

Pokémon is a RPG game whose main objective is to reach the Pokémon league and take on the High Command, for this the player must collect eight medals to get the respective defeating gym leaders scattered throughout the Kanto area. Meeting these goals requires the player on a journey in which you must complete missions and defeat the various types of obstacles in the way, most of them caused by a group of villains known as Team Rocket led by Giovanni who will do what is to fulfill its ambitions even if it represents a threat to the Pokémon and the world itself.

Differences between Aka (Red) and Midori (Green)

The real challenge of this game lies in the famous Pokédex, it is a portable electronic encyclopedia that records and describes all the pokemon you find in travel, which is given you by Professor Oak to choose your first Pokemon. To complete the Pokédex must obtain a total of 150 Pokémon caught which is impossible because of the differences between the two games is that there are Pokemon exclusive to each version.

Exclusive version Aka (Red)

Ekans, Oddish, Growlithe, Mankey, Electabuzz, Scyther and hence their evolutions.

Midori unique to version (Green)

Sandshrew, Meowth, Vulpix, Bellsprout, Magmar, Pinsir and developments.

To complete the Pokédex Pokemon needed to change to another player via link cable, it should be noted that some pokemon evolve only when they are exchanged, could also initiate battles between other players in this way.

Fun Fact

Pokémon Red and Green came while sales in Japan, but what many do not know is that the original version was never translated to Green America or Europe for reasons somewhat fuzzy at first, but was arguably because Pokémon Blue version, if you came out of Japan, would be an improved version of the Green since in the latter had many bugs that were upgraded to the version that he presided.

With this latest information we end our review, we hope you liked it and I make it clear that we are always willing to listen to you if they have questions or want to correct something feel free to leave your comments, do it all for you, our readers, to always be comfortable. A pleasure, farewell ErrorMacro.

A few days ago we reported on the formation of a new study CryTek with some of the former members of the now defunct Vigil Games, including his primary responsibility David Adams. Faced with growing rumors of a possible resurrection of the Darksiders franchise, despite seemingly impossible by licensing issues, Cevat Yerli has been quick to deny them.

"We were surprised when no one opted for Vigil. Bid We would have liked, but there were too many unknowns," said Yerli. "We chose Austin as a destination for our brand in the U.S., and we needed a team of experts to launch the study. At the same time we did not want to continue with Darksiders 3 because it did not fit with our strategy, so when we heard that the team Vigil Games had been discharged in full by THQ, decided to fly and have a meeting to see if they were interested in joining our mission ... now that is something significantly different from what we have done so far.

Hitman: Trilogy HD. "This saga is what has defined our study"

The trilogy is set this week on sale.

If you love the adventures of Agent 47 have probably already noted in the calendar that tomorrow is selling the Hitman Trilogy HD, which means that the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 are some of the best games of the series in HD format.

Nick Price, Communications of IO Interactive, spoke about the event with the official PlayStation blog. "More than anything else that IO Interactive has created in the past decade and a half, has been the Hitman franchise that has defined our study." Her five titles have been released in the last 12 years for major platforms. The killer combination of fantasy, game mechanics and freedom of action of the Hitman series make all the most original games we created in IO. Nobody had really seen a game like Hitman before (not even the developers who were about to create. Was a game about a murderer cold as ice, but with a wry humor to balance issues that were treated as mature. "

"When you deal with a subject so dark ... need something to compensate, to make it less cynical," says Tore Blystad, director of Hitman: Absolution. "Early in the development of Absolution trying to say we wanted to do a serious game instead of a funny, but with the passage of time the mood was beginning to return to what we were doing, and instead decided to get rid of it for use game. In many ways, the humor inherent in the Hitman games has been there to create balance with the dark and mature themes they have. Hitman games introduced several unique elements of gameplay including a new type of artificial intelligence, the use of `physical type rag doll 'system and costumes. Doing these things work together in a complex system has always been a great challenge. Creating open missions' Codename 47' along with functions like making sniper, disguise and hide sight led to many trials and development risks. "

"The result of this development was an extremely difficult game to master, which became a staple of the series. Difficulty is made even higher by the fact that the team forgot to include the saved starting for the first game, which meant that the experience was much harder (and more exciting) than many other games of the time. With games that followed, these mechanics and functions much better defined, "says New Price. "Something that newcomers to learn when playing with Hitman Trilogy HD is how versatile are the different murders in these games. Always been a desire to bring Agent 47 worldwide, meet interesting people and execute them. Therefore from Blood Money Silent Assassin to live a variety of different adventures. "

"Our hope is that with HD Trilogy fans again enjoy their favorite games, and that those who seized Absolution Agent 47 and want to experience more classical models for the first time," they conclude.

Retro Review: Grim Fandango

To keep track of the games of adventure games, and speaking of King's Quest in the previous article, it is now the turn of his predecessor Grim Fandango, considered another work of worship for followers of this genre for several reasons such as a impeccable and impressive graphics, gameplay extremely comfortable and a captivating story that forces us to pay attention second to second to see the final outcome.

Designed by Tim Schafer, developed and distributed by the legendary LucasArts in 1998 for PC, can boast of being the first game that incorporated the graphics engine grime (Grim Edit), which served to be the subject of wonder and acclaim many for its high quality, many say that if excellence was repeatedly imitated but never equaled, the naked eye is that it shows the effort and hard work meant to its makers Grim Fandango, has an attractive and convincing argument, why what? because it is inspired by the peculiar Mexican celebration known as "Day of the Dead"

Here the main character is Manny Calavera living in the underworld, a place where all the beings who were once alive upon the face of the earth, from the beginning what is more striking is the beauty and ornamentation of game, all players have skeletal look, humor is not absent.
