V.G. Blog-The PS3 Elite: Vol. 1

Here are some of the PS3's best games and my reviews for them.
Metal Gear Solid 4

MGS4 is, i think, the best game or the past few years, if not decade. The game is just plain beautiful. You'll notice that when you watch a cutscene(which you'll spend most of your time doing), the graphics look the same in the scene as when you play the game!! I've never seen a game look so polished, but yet so gritty at the same time.

So it looks great, but how does it play? I've played MGS1 and 3, and those are good games, but the controls are clunky. Shoothing someone is a chore; but not in this one. Just hold the L1 button and press R1 to start shooting. The guns are also customizable....even though i must admit I didnt customize or buy weapons very often. Every control in the game just feels right....like when you want to camofloge yourself just simply go next to a wall or object and your octocamo will do the work for you. That is a big improvement over the 3rd game.

In conclusion, if you liked the other 3 games, or like shooters/action games, or if you have a PS3, BUY this game. Its that good.Its a lil on the hard side, but you feel so good after beating it. You definantly get your money's worth with this game.

Killzone 2

KZ2, is the best shooting game of the past 10 years. I wont say its the best all time, b/c i seem to remember a game called Goldenye 007 lol. Anyway i will break this game down right quick.

Okay the story is good, but i felt the 1st game had a slightly better story. I havent beaten the game yet, but from what i've played, its the most amazing single player mode ever. The Helghast are smart, formidable foes. Theres even some special enemies to deal with. Theres just so much excitement in the game its insane!

Yes the controls are very realistic. The game feels "heavy" well thats how it would be in real life. I really dont agree with reviews that give this game a 8.0 just for that. If i'm not mistaken, its about the same as KZ1 so you can't complain too much lol.

THe multiplayer will ensure you'll never get tired of this game. What separates this from other games is the fact you'll be doin "body count" mode which is team deathmatch...then all of a sudden you're doing search and destroy, or caputure and hold....the game keeps you on your toes.

I didnt talk about the graphics since you already know those are the best for a Console FPS....or maybe any FPS. With all that said, i'm a lil surprised GS gave it a 9.0 when this game is nothing less than a 9.5. Anyway BUY THIS GAME. You will get more than you paid for.

Uncharted 2

Man i read reviews and this and that on this game, and i couldnt believe the hype until i played this. This is without a doubt the 2nd best ps3 game to date. And its one of the best all time. The presentation is part of what makes it so great. It doesnt have the best story, but itsn not a bad one. The graphics are just plain beautiful. The voice acting is top notch.I luv seein how realistic Drake and the others characteres move/act. Everything else looks great too.

The controls seem to work great too. They're very simplistic. I like the cover system. The game feautres a lot of platforming. For the most part its fun, but pretty unrealistic. I dont care if Drake has the best hands in the world but those jumps from Iedge to ledge are pretty crazy. That aside the single player game is amazing and has good length.

The multiplayer is good too. You got Team Death match, Elmination, and the all important co-op modes for 3 players. The Co-op is a pretty unique experience.

Overall this is a must have for any PS3 owner. I pray that Sony does not put this on the xbox 360.....but the game is so "big" i dont think they can! Good job Naughty Dog!!!

Doja Cat Albums Worst to Best

 Doja Cat has been one of my favorite rapper/singers of the past few years. Let's see which albums are the best from her. 5) Amala (88)- Doja’s first album is honestly pretty damn good. You can tell she was still refining her sound tho on this. The last 3 songs “Juicy”, “Tia Tamera”, and “Mooo” are so good. “Candy” is another banger. The album is really well balanced being pretty much good in all areas but not really great in any tho. Favorite Track: Mooo. 4) Scarlet (90)- Believe it or not, this was an album I was on the fence about getting. I’m glad I got it. This is a rap heavy album but there’s still plenty of singing here and there. “Demons” and “F**k the GIrls” are Doja at her roughest. “Attention” was a great single. “Agora Hills” is a nice cute track. The monster single “Paint the Town Red” is the best track however. This album wa a big departure for her, but for the most part it paid off. Fav. Track Paint the Town Red. 3) Vie (92)- This was Doja returning to her pop roots,...

Video Game Review: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth

 I happened to beat this game recently for the first time in I was just in awe at how epic this game is. Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth is a sequel to Final Fantasy 7 Remake (which I played on the ps4). This game was a ps5 exclusive however. I know I needed a ps5 if I was gonna play it. And last year I made that happen. This is a continuation of the story of Cloud, Tifa, Aerith, and Barrett as they fight against the Shinra Corporation and the evil Sephiroth. I'll try not spoil much. When the game starts you play as Zack who is a solider like Cloud. You saw Zack at the end of Remake. Basically story wise there is another dimension in this game and you play as Zach in it here and there. There is a relationship meter that the main character Cloud has with every party member….answering certain questions one way or another will change the relationship. I found this to be a cool touch that the first game barely had any resemblance of. The game's graphics are outstanding and characters look ...

Album Review: Doja Cat-Vie

  The much anticipated latest Doja Cat album! I was very curious to see where she'd go after the dark rap heavy Scarlet. The path she took was a 80s sounding pop album. It took a few listens for the album to click with me but yeah its awesome. Doja is in her zone here on this album. She sings a lot and acts as her own featured rap artist which is interesting. The first 3 songs are pretty strong. "Cards" is sultry. I love "Jealous Type" too (the lead single). "AAAH MEN!" might be my favorite song however. The production is great but maybe not the best she's ever had. I liked most every song. "Silly!Fun!" and "Come Back" are also excellent. As far as features go there's only SZA on " Take Me Dancing". So basically we have a very strong album here...but maybe not quite as good as Planet Her but it’s very close. Maybe I'll do a Doja Cat album ranking in the near future. She's been one of my favorite artists sin...
