Great game! Need patience for download..., December 7, 2010

The game is great. Runs smoothly. Reminds me of when The Sims first came out and I was addicted! Definitely recommend.

However, I didn't like the Amazon downloader. The idea is great. The average download time was 2 and a half hours, but mine took about 4 hours, and I don't think it was my new HP laptop's fault. But, the game did eventually download. You just need to go through various stages of downloading and each take an eternity. You think that once you get past the first download stage that you're done, so you get disappointed when there's about three more that take just as much time. Just don't get too excited to play when you order it, keep your patience!

Won't Install After Download nor Run...Amazon & EA Give Me The Run Around, August 8, 2011

This review is from: The Sims 3 [Download] (Software Download)

I have gone through about 6 redownloads via Amazon's downloader. Averaged about 2.5 hour downloads. Every time I download completely and click on "Install" on the Amazon Downloader, NOTHING HAPPENS. I go into the file & click on "Autorun" & NOTHING HAPPENS (it originally would launch the Sims 3 Launcher, I would click "play" and it would ask me to insert disc...for a DIGITAL DOWNLOAD). I go into the file & click on "Sims3Setup", InstallShield Wizard loads, & when it stops loading, I get an error message saying that "Sims 3 version 1.00.632 is already installed. This installs version 1.0.631. You must uninstall previous versions in order to install this version." I contacted Amazon, and they sent me straight to EA tech support. I sent them an email 3 days ago & still have not been responded to. So, I have been live chatting with EA for the past 2.5 days UNSUCCESSFULLY. They said that my issue was complicated & needed to be sent to a "Senior Advisor"...I waited 50 minutes for this... Read more

This review is from: Clive Barker's Jericho (Video Game)

I've been a fan of both Clive Barker and horror games for a long time, and I played Barker's Undying and enjoyed it, so I was curious what he had in store this time.

I haven't finished the game, but I've made good progress so far, and frankly I think its quite a lot of fun. Blending elements from several action/shooter/horror game styles, Jericho offers a lot of interesting and flexible play. It also excels, compared to most games of this kind, in concept and story line. I like the characters, I found the idea to be interesting, the execution to be good, and the play itself to be enjoyable.

It IS an on-the-rails shooter, and there is neither time nor incentive for exploration. Combat is intense, close quarters, and comes in short waves throughout, but the variety of ways to achieve survival and victory is interesting due to the use of each character's unique attributes and weapons.

This game is not graphics intensive. The graphics are good,... Read more

Jericho...Disappointing, October 24, 2007

This review is from: Clive Barker's Jericho (Video Game)

A horror themed FPS!

After viewing the trailer, I decided to purchase this game; it (the trailer) had an interesting, spooky 'Doom 3' look to it. Being a longtime FPS fan I was cautiously optimistic; however, the game did not live up to my expectations...let me comment on some of the good and the bad.

The Pros:

1.)Smooth flowing graphics if you have the hardware and video card to run this game as it was meant to been played. Also, the ambient sound effects were well done, adding to the creepy atmosphere.

2.)Short levels with fairly frequent checkpoint saves.

3.)Your team is composed of 7 different members, each with their own unique 'special' abilities (but these abilities are locked in and are not the RPG type, where you can pick and choose between upgrades).

4.)The game has the interesting concept of allowing you to switch between characters to become any one of the other team members; thus giving you the... Read more

This review is from: Clive Barker's Jericho (Video Game)

I love a game that when I play it, I can feel the quality blow over me like a cool wind on a summer day, or, in the case of "Clive Barker's Jericho", hot blood mixed with guts and all manner of nasty stuff. This game oozes quality out of every pore, except the ending pore, but we'll get to that later. From the graphics, to the sound, story, gameplay, characters, and the fact the game isn't a shoddy port, you can tell the developers put in a lot of work, and love into this game.

What is "Clive Barker's Jericho"? It is a squad based, intense, action first person shooter, but instead of fighting terrorists, or a rival nation's army, you are fighting wonderfully creative and twisted monsters. I didn't think this game was scary, and I don't think the developers intention was to make it so. It is creepy, eerie, and intense, and I loved every second of it. From the Codemasters blood splattered logo when the game starts up, to the cgi intro, the icky menu screen, the intense... Read more

Different type of hidden objects game, March 26, 2008

This review is from: Hidden Relics (Video Game)

First off, I didn't buy this game from Amazon; I downloaded it from the Big Fish website.

Hidden Relics is a hidden objects game but it's a bit different from the ones I've played. This game is really interesting but sometimes downright annoying. Besides the usual hunt for hidden objects (some which are half hidden behind other things), you have to play mini-games to unlock special devices that you need to find special hidden objects that can't be seen by the "naked" eye and those games can be frustrating and some of the devices make it difficult to find the object. With the regular hidden objects, there's a "handbook" that allows you to see exactly what you're looking for before resorting to the hints.

I like the story (played out like a comic strip) but it does get a bit predictable and the music is rather soothing. I find this game to be fun for short periods of time but can get a bit boring after an hour or more of playing.

This review is from: Hidden Relics (Video Game)

"Hidden Relics" isn't a bad game; it's mostly a hidden object game (HOG), with Find the Differences, Find 10, etc. between levels ("chapters"). Since the game mostly involves spotting antiques, the Handbook is a VERY useful feature which offers a definition and picture of objects the player selects from the look-for list, and using the Handbook does NOT use up one of the allowed hints.

The game is suitable for the hearing impaired, and a (weak) magnifier is the first purchase players make with stars earned from successful completion of a minigame. Minigames include Hanoi Towers, Memory, and jigsaw puzzles. I found the other purchases less useful.

I wish a little more time had been taken with development of "Hidden Relics;" it has a cheap feel to me. I wasn't fond of the comic strip story, although the comic strips can be skipped. Numerous misspellings litter the entire game, including "pizza cuter" and "loose" instead of "lose."

My wife enjoyed this game greatly. Once she played it through on an easy level, and is now ready to go back and play it on a harder level. Great game for the price.
