Jack is just an everyday citizen, who gets dropped headfirst into the terror of Death Watch, a brutal game created by a bunch of vindictive terrorists, known only as ‘The Organisation’. On the streets of Varrigan City, there is no choice – attack first, think later. Jack’s number one priority is to stay alive, but in order for this to become a long-term option, he must battle his way to the nerve-centre of The Organisation and uncover the real motive behind this modern-day gladiator’s arena. Along the way he’ll face the pressure of gruesomely hilarious mini-games that will push him to his limits and confront monstrous bosses, for whom mercy isn’t an option. Always over-the-top and outrageously funny, MadWorld features eye-popping graphics that suck you into the maelstrom of madness and leave you begging for more. Think of a slick monochromatic graphic novel, transport it to an interactive 3D world, add a riot of sound and a huge weapons collection, and you’re just about there. No object is without its bone-splintering possibilities: street signs, dumpsters, tires – your survival will depend on being inventive and ruthless in equal measure. Making innovative use of Wii’s motion-sensing capabilities, MadWorld employs the versatility of both the Wii Remote and the Nunchuk to deliver ferocious finishing moves in a whole variety of macabre ways. Although Jack is very much on a one-man mission, you can also share the experience with your friends, by getting together for some special party games. There’s no cuddly toy for the winner here though. MadWorld for Wii – it’s a very, very bad world... - Stunning black and white stylised graphics that create a truly unique look - Fast and instinctive arcade-style gameplay using the Wii Remote and Nunchuk - Compete in a set of extreme multiplayer mini-games and see who has what it takes to be a MadWorld winner - Interact resourcefully with your environment to deliver the ultimate fatal knockdown to your opponents*** [100]*** [12] | labelimagesubject |

| Silent Hill: Shattered Memories | Konami (Climax Studios) | 2009 | actionadventure communicator desolate dimensionaltravel earth gps grotesque isolatedhabitat isolatedlocale map mapannotation monsters northamerica parallelreality paranormal parentprotagonist protectioncomplex psychologicalhorror rating-esrb-m roses roses-other roses-red serious silenthill stationaryattack survivalhorror titularlocale town urbanfantasy vcreffects wiimote | While the game shares its twisting plot with the original PlayStation game, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories takes a different path in many, many ways. Characters can be approached but offer different responses and be found in different places, while new clues and gameplay paths can be followed. The title follows Harry Mason, as he attempts to unravel the mystery of his missing daughter, Cheryl. A broken man, Mason’s investigations lead him to the mist-shrouded, snowy streets of Silent Hill: a malevolent town where the shadows play host to a wealth of evil, misshapen creatures. Designed to make full use of the Wii's unique controllers, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories uses the Wii Remote as a torch and cell phone as Mason looks for clues. The torch is vital for scouring the darkened, abandoned buildings of Silent Hill, while the phone acts as a secondary user interface, allowing the player to access maps via its GPS capabilities and take pictures of interesting elements. Likewise, the Wii Remote also can be used to pick up, examine and manipulate items to solve puzzles along the journey. Such technology was not available when the original Silent Hill was released in 1999, and its inclusion showcases Konami’s determination to enhance the playing experience with new, available technology. Also new to Shattered Memories is a psyche profile element, which monitors every aspect of player’s reactions - from where they explore first, items that have been examined, and their reaction to those they meet. Small visual elements will also be altered slightly, adding to the oppressing atmosphere where nothing is what it seems. The psyche profile will adapt Harry’s actions as and when he meets normal-looking people or the game's many inhuman denizens. | labelimagesubject |
