Bioshock Infinite - Review

Image
This game is one of the most awaited ones for almost two years as it has been delayed multiple times, but at last here it is, and take note that it has been worth it the wait! You can't fall in love with her? In this game you're a man called Booker DeWitt, a man who owns some kind of debt and they offer him to settle it if he rescues a girl that has been imprisoned since she was a little child in a city floating in the sky called Columbia, that young woman is Elizabeth. She has been inside of a tower for her entire life nad has never come out or even seen another human being. After you, easily (sarcasm) rescue her, you have to do everything to get out of the flying city and discover the hidden secrets its society has. I'm not going to spoil anything more from the story as it has been written perfectly from the main plot to the lines the characters say. While you play as the man who rescues the girl, is quite obvious the main character here is Elizabeth, everything i

Elizabeth's too Real

This is just a small post...more like an opinion. Just got my copy of Bioshock Infinite and I'm surprised and amazed how much Elizabeth looks like a real person...it's very hard to believe she's just a "machine"...well, I'll post the review of the game as soon as I can...have an amazing weekend!

Tomb Raider - Review

Image
After a long, long wait, here it is, the new and completely refreshed Tomb Raider (2013 Square Enix's version) The Lara we all know is reborn in the greatest possible way! Lara Croft young version in this game is the most realistic one I think we'll ever see, she's an arqueologist student on her first trip to find a forgotten dinasty at the Dragon's Triangle in China  (the thing is that this place really exists and it's at the other side of the planet to the Bermuda's Triangle), they got shipwrecked and, after some stuff that happens I don't want to spoil, it seems that Lara is the only one that can save the entire crew of the ship.  She starts as a young girl with no experience on questing or killing (her first kill in the game is highly dramatic) and step by step she will become the tomb raider we all know with a more real body and face that will easily become sexier than the old one we all know (at least to me). The plot is extremely interesting

Oz the Great and Powerful - Review

Image
After so many years from the original "Wizard of Oz", we are back in this new adventure made by Disney and while it doesn't make you feel the magic from the original and the cast is not as good-acting as it was, this new film is a good prequel with amazing special effects and a good story. The plot is some years ago before Dorothy arrives to Oz:  Oscar Diggs , a small-time circus magician with dubious ethics, is hurled away from dusty Kansas to the vibrant Land of Oz. At first he thinks he's hit the jackpot-fame and fortune are his for the taking. That all changes, however, when he meets three witches, Theodora , Evanora , and Glinda , who are not convinced he is the great wizard everyone's been expecting. Reluctantly drawn into the epic problems facing the Land of Oz and its inhabitants, Oscar must find out who is good and who is evil before it is too late. Putting his magical arts to use through illusion, ingenuity-and even a bit of wizardry-Oscar transforms h

Bioshock Infinite Update

Yes, I'm still here! And I'll be here even if the world ends... At the start of next month here will be more updates like Tomb Raider's Review and Bioshock Infinite's...also my Top 10 in videogames will be changed on my next review as I updated it a little bit playing again some of those games. The same goes for cinema, the next review will be about Oz - The great and powerful! The Academy Awards were very easy to predict, I have to congratulate Mr. Daniel Day-Lewis for his amazing perfomance as Lincoln, Anne Hathaway for Les Miserables and Ang Lee for Life of Pi!! I want to share with you a new video posted about Bioshock Infinite's Elizabeth; she's becoming one of my favourite characters of all time more and more, it's amazing to see how a fictional person can look and become so real with so much feelings...you can feel her when she smiles or gets sad, it's amazing, here's the video:
