Fateful choices

Gran Turismo 5 - Platinum (PS3) Platform: PlayStation 3 Condition: New Other versions of this game available from us: Platform: Pre-Owned/Used: Very Good Condition copies available Product Description Review Ground Control concentrated on pure, straightforward RTS action with no resource management, with the catch being the command vehicle has to survive. Here, there are 15 more levels of organised mayhem on three worlds, together with the regular extra multiplayer and skirmish maps. The Dark Conspiracy mission pack starts where the original left off, with the protagonist Major Sarah Parker stranded on planet Krig with an unknown future based on her fateful choices at the end of the original game. The first mission is deceptively simple; but then from level two onwards it's a tooth-and-nail war of attrition with little respite. The lack of in-game save and limited resources make you treasure every unit even more so than in the original game, as new orders arrive mid-level; and friendly fire can cost you the mission if it happens often enough. Then there's the mastery of the camera; if you can't match up the displays and follow the path of every unit, once again you'll suffer needless losses that stop your progress. "Stray Unit Syndrome" has crept in at times, which didn't affect the original; however It's another reason to pick the right formation to move a whole squad. If you have Ground Control but haven't played in a while, go back to the training mode to get re-acquainted as it tends to assume you're an expert. There's little blood as the units are seen (and destroyed) from vehicle view. Dark Conspiracy's 400Mb HDD space requirements put a full install of original and add-on at nearly a gigabyte, but this thankfully doesn't detract from the quality of the software. -- Kenneth Henry --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Manufacturer's Description Picking up where Ground Control left off, Dark Conspiracy continues the story of Major Sarah Parker. After defeating the Crayven Corporation and Order of the New Dawn forces on Krig-7b, Parker must enlist a group of mercenaries to help her escape from the deserted planet. Playing as Major Parker, you must command your way through 15 missions on 3 planets to uncover a dangerous new religious faction and discover the terrifying truth about an alien technology it aims to possess. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII (PS4) Platform: PlayStation 4 Condition: New Other versions of this game available from us: Platform: Pre-Owned/Used: Very Good Condition copies available Product Description Based on the beloved novel of the same name, Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII has been developed in celebration of the franchise's 30th anniversary. The game uses the tale of a collapsing dynasty and the power-hungry emerging factions to set a complex chessboard on which players can follow and influence the fateful events leading to the unification of 2nd century China. Fans of strategy games will find this exceptionally detailed title to be a challenging and rewarding blend of deep strategy and historically accurate warfare, regardless of their familiarity with the rich story of the Three Kingdoms era of Chinese history. Cities can be built and developed; alliances can be fostered or broken; armies can be mustered and deployed. Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII prides itself on offering a wide selection of options for conflict resolution, the most impressive of which are the armies. A wide variety of army units can be recruited and trained, including foot soldiers, cavalry, artillery, and navy, while special care has been taken to incorporate diplomacy and personal relationships, giving the player an extra incentive to build a stable and loyal network of friends and allies. This comprehensive and exceptionally detailed strategy title features two compelling gameplay experiences: the Campaign mode, which stays true to the most profound of strategy games by allowing players the freedom to choose a starting year and customize the board to their liking before attempting to beat the game, and the Hero mode, which acts an in-depth tutorial, closely following historical events while teaching players all of the game's mechanics. In Hero mode, players familiar with characters from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms series can also enjoy an alternative way to relive the exciting lives and adventures of those heroes before proceeding to leave their own mark on history! In Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII players have near endless customisation choices, as they can take on the mantle of one of 700 historical characters (including such fan- favourites as Zhao Yun, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and more), or create their own unique character and try to climb the proverbial leadership ladder.
