For those of you not in the know-how as to what is a PSP game, well google it and you should get some interesting results ranging from the game itself to a like to one of Barista’s concoctions – why, I have no idea. Anyway, the PSP game Dr JR : The root of evil is actually a sequel to an earlier version, one which follows a similar storyline. With a hero or a group of heroes, naturally we must have a villain. We do so in the form of the Furi, a hulk look-alike, with all the graphics to make him stand out as one. Death Jr may look cool and all that, but the bottom line is that this game still has a few kinks to iron out. Remember that this is a sequel, and what is surprising to many is that it still retains the ‘bad design’ flaw yet. One would have thought that with a sequel, at least this one would have been reworked over, but that sadly though is not the case.

Despite the bad design, the audio is just great, it has the ‘goldilocks’ effect, not too loud to distract or too mellow, just right. The storyline is all about how death Jr and his friends managed to unleash the villain and what they do to correct this mistake. There are quite a variety of weapons available to help you tackle the challenges posed in this game, from that of the flaming toilet paper to the hamster with a c4. Keep in mind that there are 19 levels to this game and all through, you can try to upgrade your weapons as you go along.
This game can be played in the mono mode, that is by yourself or with a friend, either way, the storyline is set and all you would have to do is to utilize the weaponry and take care of Furi.

Frankly though, this game is good for a moment’s laugh and not more than that. There are way too many flaws in the game and the design should be one of the first things that should have been tackled head on. Anyway, you can try out this game for fun and entertainment wise it is quite good.

 

The Pirates of the Caribbean are all set to make a reappearance of sorts in the game ‘Pirates of the burning sea’. These days the games include more graphics than you would take care to note, with many of the characters ending up 6 feet under, so as to speak. This game is not all that different with the genre being more about Pirates.

The game is set in the 1720’s and could well be mistaken for a take on the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ series. All the players control their own destinies and their main occupation in this game is to prey on other hapless ships that are foolish enough to cross their paths. One can also join as a captain of one of the navies if the buccaneer lifestyle is a bit too rich for them. As a buccaneer one can choose to operate under the orders of ones sovereign to attack the enemy’s merchant ships or be a free trader trying to seek profit anyway he can. The last part is a more apt description for most of the buccaneers on whom this game is based upon.

The software requirements of this game are quite a mouthful with fast processor and a broadband connection being some of them. One can surmise that since these are some of the basic requirements, the game would be utilizing some of the high-end graphics in this game. The ‘Pirates of the burning sea’ would be available in the digital format quite soon. One of the highlights of this game is the option for allowing users to add their own content, making this game all the more personal. Pirates of the burning sea seem to be headed in the right direction, after all.
