A GTA game that mixes with Heavy Rain? I need a bib ...

Still I thank God that did not get to buy Electronic Arts Rockstar ...

Hello friends! Long time since I updated my dear blog, but the blessed day intensive that will change this. I just finished Red Dead Redemptio PS3 and I can give you my impressions, as always, 100% original and far removed from the analysis truños you can read there.

After finishing the single player game (the multiplayer yet I have not touched), I have been an excellent taste. Again the hand of Dan Houser permeates the entire script of the game. They talk of some kind of developer "pints" Japanese as the "Tarantino" of video games, but for me Houser is this guy who deserves the appellation. Dan has over 10 years writing the scripts for the GTA series and now has embarked on a Red Dead Redemption stands out above all by the script that has led Houser.

I'm not going to "spoil", but the story of John Marston really hooked. It is full of good dialogue in a way that rarely feel the need to ahorrártelos. The script is full of bandits, corrupt law enforcement, threats, tough guys, whores, racing, pounding, ... there's frauds, and under good grounds of social criticism and comments very ironic and odd acids and intellectual touch : as when subtly makes you wonder if you really can escape his past or when you move to reflect on policy with regard to a dictator and the revolutionary course that will return power to overthrow the people. All very disappointing, very Houser ... I love it! Indeed, as the script for RDD curiosity is ten times that of a movie ...

The end of history had been recommended to me by some friends and, indeed, I am delighted by unexpected, for being the West, for his epic. The duration of the game is quite large because between main missions will always find some fun secondary task to perform, so that ultimately the game offers you many hours of game that you expect. It is true that some side missions are repeated but, man, nobody forces you to do it if you seem boring.

The new scenario, the American West, 1911, gives a touch of freshness to the Grand Theft Auto has been lost over time. The horse is more fun than vehicles, such as hunting fugitives living or dead or beasts, tame horses, buy land ... I'm a big fan of GTA, but I must confess that Red Dead Redemption I liked it better than GTA IV.

The project has been 6 years of hard work against all odds, against analysts shoddy casting on land without seeing him play against attempts to purchase Rockstar and calamities. After all, upon giving the game the required years of development, has been round, has sold over 5 million copies worldwide and has had the success it deserves.

Despite having spent so much time developing an exceptional game, have much to talk about his famous bugs. I was the first to laugh at some, like the woman-ass, and I really found my games some as the disappearance of horses required to complete a mission or the character to fly free into the sky for no reason, but it is unfair to get with the game for this. On aggregate good bad beat by a landslide.

We face a great new franchise from Rockstar, a game that has been able to delay the release of Max Payne 3 end of the year, a game that gives many lessons, among them to be given to good ideas that development time require that little bit better and that much good and bad (and I note ...), that the quarterly results and presentations to investors, the short term, should not stand in the long term, quality, and thus give a 10 to Rockstar and 9 high to Red Dead Redemption. I still go down to the altar and I hope Rockstar continue so many years creating video games for adults that both amuse people like me.

Rating: Mahou 5 stars. Essential.

And now to enjoy the short with subtitles in Spanish, which is trippy:

Rockstar Games , American company which we are accustomed to throwing "bombs" games, is completing his next release titled "Red Dead Redemption" .

The style of GTA and set in the golden age of "farwest" in it embody John Marston, a former bandit who after years of criminal life by a brutal gang, decides to settle down and live a more "quiet". But that life desirable and quiet will not last long for Marston, and government agents solicited their help to hunt down the most wanted bands.

Based on a game system very similar to the saga Grand Theft Auto , our goal will be to carry out the missions that are happening to us. Rockstar claims that no game will be a "linear", and therefore depend heavily on how we carry out the missions, as these will influence the development of history.

Red Dead Redemption is the sequel to Red Dead Revolver , which was released in May 2004 for PlayStation 2 and Xbox. This second part is being developed by Rockstar San Diego and will be released on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and its release date and hopefully the final is May 21, 2010.

After delaying for a third time again, hopefully something good for the game ... What you expect from this "GTA Western"?

Because not everything in life is Forza Motorsport 3 (Notice to mariners: For kings want a good wheel Logitech), I'm also playing Episodes from Liberty City, an album that collects both chapters Xbox 360 exclusive downloadable physical format. The album costs 40 euros and gives many hours of play, the truth is very worthwhile if you like the GTA universe, because you do not need GTA IV itself or downloads or anything.

At the time I did not play much at The Lost and Damned if I was sent a code to download. I do not remember why I do not play, I guess it was muddy with other games, but I do remember that the guys from Take Two / Rockstar Games invited me to his office to try this chapter and wrote a little blurb in my another blog .

I will not repeat. What I liked is that there are checkpoints in the missions, which allows not to repeat over and over the mission from the beginning and the new weapons to the Terminator, but there have been many things that I liked: The graphics guarreados on purpose to give more atmosphere, the script that once looked promising and then not so much ...

The theme of the bikes I love, and being a biker in the band of Lost promised, but ultimately a bit boring I have to drive the chopper. Another of the strengths of this chapter was the band, the feeling of brotherhood, but ultimately the missions do not really account with them and go about your business, to shoot down the enemy without caring much your classmates. Of course, when needed, are given a twist and fight ... Escaqueos, the righteous.

The feeling that Lost and Damned was a bit disappointing has increased when I started playing The Ballad of Gay Tony, a new chapter much more elaborate, beginning as God intended, with a powerful mission: Draw a military helicopter and Abbe a yacht and several boats. Then you see that the missions will be more brutal and developments, many more than in the previous chapter. This second volume has more personality, more attractive, thanks to a hero and a more Latin world, the night more exciting.

The ability to enjoy new machine guns or the chute, new cars, motorcycles and boats, managing nightclubs and new multiplayer are reasons enough to download or buy the album to this second chapter download. As always, the main missions are added lots of side missions that ensure many, many hours of play.

If it's for hours of play, a must-buy if you're not tired of the GTA games.

Incidentally, Miyamoto wants to make the island of Wii Sports Resort a new character as famous as Mario or Zelda, but giving prominence to an environment is the work of Rockstar Liberty City. Make no mistake. Provide a stage personality has already done Dan House, a less mediatic Miyamoto for his taste for the politically incorrect and adult, but a genius.

Following in the footsteps of Spore , The Sims 3 may already be available in networks hacking 2 weeks before its official release, as I see in many American video game sites . It appears, though I do not recommend or encourage (the file can contain viruses or go you know what), the game works and does not require activation online or anything. More bad news for Electronic Arts, which could stop selling many units, as recently happened to Rockstar Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars, for example.

Torrent Sims 3 Edition

Now we just need to not repeat the mistakes and not disturb the legal buyers Sims 3 DRM systems with stupid ...

I recently wrote that the decision to Nintendo DS GTA to me fell like a wet blanket , because I think it is impossible to recreate the same game on laptops. I have not changed my mind, but my level is down about radicalism considerably thanks to the trailers was just released. Show a very interesting game. Like I even like it better than " Cooking "!

The first trailer shows you the history of the game with very little real image of the game:

And shortly after a video has come of "gameplay" pretty cool:

Do not look bad, not bad. not bad this contest for The Lost and Damned . Participate, which is free and you can win a custom Xbox 360 game.

The other day I thought what development studies most talented, those who have earned fame with every game and still maintain that over the years, something that is not easy, and seeking common denominators among them. Except Ubisoft Montreal, which is the business, none of ellostiene a load of games a year, but take your time to make their games and few have surrendered to the charms of Wii. This is my top:

1. Bethesda for Oblivion and Fallout series. Ten.
2. Starbreeze their bestial Riddick Xbox game and the sequel being prepared.
3. Ubisoft Studio Montrea l, Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia, Far Cry and Assassin's Creed and many others. The Canadian study is the soul of Ubisoft.
4. Bioware for Star Wars KOTOR, Mass Effect, Neverwinter Nights ... Hopefully your purchase by EA does not mean its demise.
5. Valve, for everything. Gabe Newell and his boys are legendary.
6. Team Ico for innovation and originality Shadow of the Colossus and the game prepared, of which they know next to nothing, but already in the top of my preferences.
7. Rockstar. Take Two's soul by his irreverence, humor and performing decidedly adult games. GTA IV has returned to sell like hotcakes. Great.

Incluiríais sure any more to the list

Update: By popular demand also feature SEGA AM2 Blizzard. I refuse to include ID after what little I liked Doom III and LucasArts after The Force Unleashed and Fracture
