Turning Point : Fall Of Liberty (PS3)
Customer Review: PLAINLY THE WORST PS3 GAME EVER
with some of the worst graphics on ps3‘>ps3 rubbish gameplay glitches galore this is probably the worst game on ps3‘>ps3. IF YOU WERE GOING TO BUY THIS GAME HERE IS AN IDEA DONT GET CALL OF DUTY INSTEAD.
Customer Review: Funny but not fun
As with the other reviewers , I agree the graphics are shocking ,even the vehicle textures are plain i.e. no detail.
There are clipping bugs everywhere (funny) and the enemy AI is non-existent. They don’t seem to even be aware of you at times .
Having, said all that I love FPS’s so I still got something out of it - not worth the ?45 I paid though
So one star only and thats pushing it

Customer Review: persevere
I bought Ridge Racere 7 for ?20, being in love with the original arcade game, and having loved ridge racer revolution on psone, but sceptical at some of the videos i had seen of number 7, I thought for ?20, compared to ?40/50 for most games it was a risk worth taking, and i’m glad I did. Some of the negative reviews are correct, it is very unrealistic, and some of the time when you drift it does seem like you arent 100% in control of your car, but you are NEVER not in some if not all control. I understand the whole unrealistic thing, but as someone else here as said, why has that become such a huge problem? How many computer games are realistic? If you really like gran turismo, sure, this might not be for you. But it’s just different. I agree with the reviews that are unsure at first playing the game, but to say youve played for an hour then given up I think is a mistake. I was feeling a little let down at first, but if you perservere, like most games, it gets better. You get the hang of timing corners better, the feel becomes more natural, the cars get faster. And as for lack of tracks, i’m slightly surprised. Most ridge racer games, as far as i’m aware, have never had this many tracks, and when you race them backwards and at different times of day, I was actually quite surprised how much I didnt find the tracks get samey. I have 3 games for my new ps3‘>ps3. Resistance, Uncharted, and this. And out of them I get the feeling that this is going to have the longest life. I have just completed resistance, and am not overly tempted to replay it, as much as i enjoyed it first time through, but the amount of grand prixs, time trials, single events, and manufacturers trials does make for a long career mode. Although it may only be minor things, you do keep constantly winning rewards from your efforts. The more I play it, the more im impressed and challenged. Overall, i’d say if you an absolute turismo die hard, this will take a lot of getting used to.If you do get it, and at ?20 most places I dont see why you shouldnt, give it time. It feels unfulfilling at first, but give it 3 or 4 hours and pick up the feel of it, and it becomes an excellent racer. Very high tempo.
Customer Review: Fun with a capital smile (for some)
I totally understand why some don’t like ridge racer, indeed hate it with a passion. But i am in the opposite camp - i love it. Ridge Racer involves a totally different driving style than you get in other games: drifting. Maybe as petrol head you will have watched the Fast and Furious movies: well number 3 involved drifting The story follows a kid from the states, decent driver/street racer going to japan, getting involved in racing - and being introduced drifting. He can’t do it - crashes his car several times. In ridge racer - thats what you will do as you learn to play… Or maybe as a petrolhead you will have seen the episode of topgear where the Japanese drifter racers do a demonstration and teach Hammond how to drift. At first he can’t do it- he spins around in 360’s and goes round corners backwards… Again in ridge racer thats what you will do as you learn to get to grips with it. I feel my fellow reviewers who say that RR is unrealistic are being unfair - maybe they are just unused to this style of driving - and we don’t seem to get it much on telly over in the UK (mainly because drifting round corners rather ruins your tyres in the same way doing a do’nut does - but worse cause you need downforce and traction to still get round the corner while do’nuts need more of a sliding effect). As for the game - you start of with some ok cars, some easier than others to control - you win races you get faster cars that are slightly harder to control - you win points with which you can then buy parts, making the harder cars slightly easier to drive, making it easier to win the harder races, which gives you faster cars which are… oh you get the idea. and that’s the problem with this version of RR - the learning curve starts high as you have a new car, then as you progress through the races, getting points for a third place which allows you new things (say new tyres) the difficulty drops off - while your skill goes up (well it should go up after each race): making it easier to win the next time. I think it’ best summed up as being not so much a learning curve, as a learning rollercoaster. And you also have a fair bit of redoing the same early races with different cars to get points with a different manufacture - but you only realise this once your skills and the cars make the outcome a bit ehmm ‘obvious’ After a while the game does top out when you have the skills, the cars, the add-ons, and each race is a challenge until you have it mastered. And then there is the online play - which is great: although at first i seemed to only get into races where the others had suped up cars, and i wasn’t at that level. I either mysteriously learned how to avoid it, or can compete at that level now - either way it’s great fun Which is just as well as there is no two player mode for people in the same room - which kind of kills that game as one to have your mates around to play.

Customer Review: BUY THIS !!!
IF your one of the people like me, who haven’t yet managed to buy a hi-def tv but have the ps3‘>ps3, then please do your ps3‘>ps3 justice and buy this cabel. This cabel splits the analogue video signal into chrominance (Colour) and luminance (Light), resulting in a better picture, well obviously not as good as the HDMI cabel, but much much better then the original cabel that is supplied with the PS3. It also gives an Audio L and R cabel for sound aswell. so if you dont have a HD Tv, then please buy this. You will definately see the difference.

Warhawk (inc Bluetooth Headset) (PS3) Customer Review: Too difficult and fast for people who arnt 24 hour gamers
I enjoy games and love games like call of duty 4, but dont spend all my time on them, but the people who play this game tend to have played it all day everyday. its very difficult to get better when as soon as you enter a game, you get killed almost instantly. i dont understand how people learn to get so good if you dont get a chance to learn!? It may just be me i guess judging by the other reviews. but if you are like me and are just a guy who plays games when he is tired from work or too lazy to go out, then it will just be frustrating for you. the game play is brilliant, if there was a chance to actually have a shot a surviving it. When playing with mates multiplayer split screen its great. its alot more enjoyable.
I just wish they had a virtual players where you can adjust the difficulty level.
another thing is people on use the bluetooth headset and can be just rude to you when you loose which is uncalled for, coz they think there better than you coz you dont spend hours and hours playing games which is unessacary and makes it that bit worse and less fun playing.
I hope this helps you decide.
