Champions of Norrath - PlayStation 2
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift - NDS
Galaga Legions - X-Box 360

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Demo - X-Box 360*
Too Human - X-Box 360

*A pleasant surprise. Good control and fancy graphics. I really appreciated the whole Dark Side of the Force vibe. Hopefully that sinister tone will remain consistent throughout the game even with the option to switch to the Jedi's side being there. Looking forward to the final product.


RANDOM GAME OF THE DAY:


Strikers 1945 I & II (2004)
Developer: X-nauts/Psikyo
Platform: PlayStation 2
Purchase Date: 2004


Non-stop explosive action.

Don't get this game confused with Capcom's 1942 shooters even though the theme and look are similar between the two games. Strikers have better power-ups and a mecha-twist to the enemy bosses where they transform from iconic and vintage war machines into some bullet-spraying robots from hell. As with other Psikyo games, the strategy is to constantly avoid the nasty amount of enemy shots: no gimmicks to be found here, just raw shoot-'em-up action.

LIBRARY STATUS: 4 out of 5
