Street Fighter IV & Call of Duty: World at War

Published by xboxgamer at 10:43 pm under General Edit This

I’d like to talk about the following two games that I’ve been playing lately:

Street Fighter IV is a solid 3D fighting game that will definitely please fans and newcomers alike, however unless fighting games are your strong point you might struggle a bit with it. The learning curve is not too generous as it’s quite hard to pull off some of the special moves on a regular 360 controller. While I haven’t played with the fight pad or the arcade stick, I’m pretty sure the game would play a lot smoother using those controllers. Also, don’t be surprised if you get owned while playing ranked matches as some people out there are really good.

As for Call of Duty: World at War, it’s not a new game however, it did recently get some new maps and the one I want to talk about is that new zombie map. It’s definitely worth getting as it adds a great deal of replay value to the zombie mode. I highly recommend that you play it with at least 3 people as it’s quite hard with 2 depending on your luck. I’ve also found that it’s a lot harder to get the ray gun in the new map (I’m not sure if this is accurate though, I’m just speculating based on what I’ve witnessed while playing so far). Overall, I’d recommend SF IV if you’re a Street Fighter fan or if you’re looking for a good fighting game. I’ll also vouch for that new zombie map for CoD: WaW as it’s quite fun and definitely adds more replay value to that game mode. I hope they release another zombie map soon and would be happy if they charged us only for the map thus reducing the cost (400 points or so would be reasonable). A free zombie map would be even more appreciated though :)
