In the summer of 2003, gamers bore witness to a spectacular step backwards for the mainstream acceptance of video games. The one-two punch of the unfinished videogame Tomb Raider: Angel Of Darkness and the unwatchable movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life. The awful Angel Of Darkness is a perfect example of a game rushed to release. After three years without a new title, the most visible franchise in gaming was in danger of being forgotten.

Game Description: In the sequel to the path breaking first game, Sunnydale undergoes a temporal shift, causing instability between time and space and as a result brings back to life many old enemies of the slayer. You must take on the role of either the slayer or her friends to stop your town from going to hell..... literally!!! Involvement from the shows creator, sanctioned Buffy and voiceovers, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds features intense action in an authentic Buffy universe, an advanced fighting engine allowing over & combinations loads of new and familiar characters and environments, multiplayer action game.

Mike really hit the nail on the head when it comes to most of the game's problems. In fact, if anything, he didn't go far enough when it came to the shortcomings with the game's combat system. This game features one of the most ill-conceived targeting systems I've ever encountered.

Run Like Hell is just a decent sci-fi story mixed with some rather unambitious gameplay.

The Thing, with its fantastic source material and unorthodox gameplay, is one of the few games that dares to break the mold. It is, without question, one of the most compelling survival-horror games I've played since Konami's Silent Hill 2 last year. Brad seems to have had a much less favorable experience with the game than I did particularly with regard to the trust/fear system so its those aspects I'd like to address first.

The most glaring shortcoming in the game is easily the battle system. Players will control Frodo, Gandalf, and Aragorn at different parts of the story. However, each of them fights exactly the same way and highlights all of the problems with the combat interface.
