Maplestory Review

(this is an opinion of an impatient man)

(Note to reader: I tried to play Maplestory as fast as I can to see the game in full view. I wasn't able go far so this is more opinion)

If you decided to count all the RPG's in the world you would probably die before counting them all. Many of them are horribly bad, some are good, and the few that make it through the filter are very good. Well that's exactly what this game is. With that I wasn't surprised when I found Maplestory won of the most popular games across the net and well the game can be very… funny.

The Mechanics

Maplestory is a 2d sidescroller which hasn't really been seen in many RPG games. There is no story you just are entered into the game trying to be the best of the best. The game does help you in many ways including what to do and where to go. As being a sidescroller you usually go right but you there always is some hidden content to see in the worlds. You earn mesos, the games currency, when killing enemies also you can earn items. Nexon also includes a gift store that is accessed at the bottom of your menu.

In there you use Nexon cash to buy items. Again this can be very useless unless you want to show off you have no life. As Nexon cash you have to pay with your own money at a target store or with a credit card.

Graphics

The games graphics are well very ok. We see a lot of variety in with monsters. Even though I didn't go far I was able to say that there were many different parts to the game. Once you were very deep into the game you realized how amazing the field was. The enemies sometimes resembled mushrooms and some were snails. You could find almost any monster there you have dreamed of. The only problem with the graphics is when making a character as you don't have a real option with creativity as in you could find the same low levels will be the exact same which could be a bore.

Finally in Victoria

No lag even with this many people (see if you can locate me)

Sound

There is only one word for the music: beautiful. The various sound tracks of the game can be soothing to fast action paced music. The games variety can make a person cry. This game is the only game where you can hear the music playing and actually fitting in. The music is never at the wrong place at the wrong time which makes the music of the game extremely wonderful to listen to. Even though there are so many games out there this game even can beat some games you have to pay for which just says that they worked extra hard for this track. All I have to say is good job to the Nexon group.

Lasting Appeal

RPG's are not my favorite and usually need work. For example in this one you have to suffer the first half of the game just to get experience points and that can be a serious pain. The game doesn't really have any fun at the beginning and it can be very annoying. After all that you finish the first part of the game it can get fun but that is only if you know what to do. You go to Victoria Island were the game expands. You find a job like warrior, magician and others. The game gets a bit shallow and then becomes a chore again trying to get powerful. The game is real heard and I don't expect people to really relax until they get into a high level.

Same old enemies

Fun

The game only has a couple flaws for example the quests. Those are super long and are very boring in short DON'T DO THE QUESTS unless you see that they are short. The games can be very annoying and boring. I do not recommend any quests to anyone who has or will be playing the game. Otherwise being with a group member you have 10x the fun with your players. The game has a lot of annoyance to it but still has great potential.

Downloadability

The game has ads across the net! You can find the game where ever you go. Maplestory is probably the number one game in advertisement as you can find ads on TV and now you can see some of the stuff on MySpace. The link to this game is http://www.maplestory.com/ I have to say that that this game could be one of the most fantastic games.

Kartrider review

The old days of kart racing, you know what I'm talking about the fun kart racing games. Well Nexon decided to give this genre a try and well the results are mixed. Let me explain KartRider is a racing game with cartoon like styles as you'll see. The game consists mostly of a very unique multiplayer. They haven't developed KartRider that much since it is still in beta form but they can't slack off.

First is multiplayer the game has most of the basics. You are allowed to have a race using two types: speed or item. Speed is really just racing without items. There give you many techniques that you can use like drifting but they aren't useful. Speed may have some amazing stuff but it really could be improved. Item mode is of course is using items. The items are of course fun give this game a pickup and play feel. You race with many types of items like boost down to confuse. The two types are divided farther into single and team. Single is pretty much what I explained. Team of course is when you are on a team and is trying to defeat the other. You do have a 50/50 chance of winning but you get less experience points. (I'll explain later about that)

In Scenario you follow a boy who has just earned his practice kart. He tries his way to the boom hill open. Along the way he meets friends and he does many races over the course. The positive side is that you get to relax and single player with yourself and just have fun. The only real annoyance is 2 things 1. You are forced to do some multiplayer races in great portions. Like 20 races but it has only happened twice though it can get very annoying. 2. After you are finished with multiplayer races you are expected to have gained enough experience points to move on. Mostly you never do and are forced to play multiplayer until you finish.

There are extra modes like license where you are able to get your rookie license but of course it isn't that hard as you have to do a quest (more on that later). The game also provides shopping section where you shop for characters, plates, items, karts, and the list goes on and on. You can also give gifts to other buddies as a random act of kindness. Garage also is another multiplayer function it enables you to check out others people places. Of course since it is in beta you don't have much of a choice to do what you want to, but you are able to select random visit and see someone else's garage most likely they will be at their garage while you check it out. That is probably the best way to make friends and enable a nice chat.

Time trial is necessary on most to all racing games. Even though I'm a racing fan I still don't like time trials so it was a pain to go through but I was able to see some races. Well they did try to up it a bit by here hasn't been any reason for this as it tries to cover up some flaws with it. I may be wrong but they don't carry one of the basics that most games which are a rank based system but again that could be put off. The game does provide a ghost so you can see how well you do against yourself. Time trial overall is probably a good thing but could be improved.

The mechanics are the game are very simple, you gain experience by racing in multiplayer and you level up. The only problem is that you have to race your head out just to go to the next level. This wouldn't be a problem if, like I said before, they didn't force you to level up just to go further in scenario. Also racing multiplayer gets you lucci which you can spend in the shop which it's not hard earning that as getting in first gives you 100 lucci and you need 3000 to unlock a race not hard. Nexon cash is also a factor with this game it allows you to pay with your own money for items in the game. Unless you have no life you can completely ignore the option because you can use lucci on most items.

The games quirky cartoon style brings fun into the game and lasting appeal but that's what makes the fun. I have to say the game is amazing in its one special game that can capture you. Of course the game brings its fun with the multiple amounts of races and odd story it gives you something to do in your spare time. The game is of course is one of the best free downloadable games out there and I would recommend you getting it. All you need is 1 gigabyte to download and then play your heart out. Even though the flaws can be very irritable you can ignore all except the required experience points so that's why this games gets a

KartRider Review

The old days of kart racing. You know what I'm talking about the Mario kart racing games. Well Nexon decided to give this genre a try and well the results well that will be for later. Let me explain KartRider is a racing game with cartoon like styles as you'll see. The game consists of mostly multiplayer but a very unique multiplayer. They haven't developed KartRider that much since it is still in beta form but it still has a long way to go.

First is multiplayer the game has most of the basics. You are allowed to have a race using two types: speed or item. Speed is really just racing without items. There is drifting but it isn't useful because it is not controlled so it doesn't help. Speed is cool but it could be improved. Item mode is of course has to do with items. The items are of course fun give this game a pickup and play feel. Those two types are divided farther into single and team, but those are pretty self explanatory.

Scenario is the next mode but it feels odd with racing. You have a small cut scene followed by a race. The races can be easy but start getting increasingly hard later in the game. The game uses multiplayer too but you are forced to do it. In some ways that can get very annoying again and again.

There are extra modes like license where you are able to get licenses those are easy to get because there are more like it. The game also provides shopping where you shop for a lot of stuff. You can also give gifts for other buddies. Garage is amazing as it is like a lounge. You see your friends and relax too. Again that is one of the many qualities of multiplayer.

Time trial is the last subject on this review. It includes courses that aren't in multiplayer. This includes a complex city based track. There hasn't been any reason for this. The problem is that it does not have a ranking based system. There isn't a lot of motive to this game besides race.

Over all the game has some amazing stuff but again is lacking in others. The game could be in single player but it does have some amazing features for a free game so that is why I give it a

Youtube users

Well this where I linked you to so here is the paragraph

I realized that if you go to a website (http://speeddemosarchive.com/PaperMarioTTYD.html) look at the intermission after chapter 6 you will realize how Mario gets that much attack power but it is risky. so I would not do it if I were you but you could still try I'll post this on the chapter 8 parts again I recommend you don't do it but if you want to you can. By the Way don't email to him he probably doesn't know English seeing how he misspelled chapter and that every time you look at his summary you see the word para instead of for and also you look at his channel and you WILL see that he is from Brazil. again the website is http://speeddemosarchive.com/PaperMarioTTYD.html say thanks to Kimi12715 for giving me that tiny hint about speed demos. By the way I bought paper Mario: the thousand year door from Nintendo world visit that place if you can. Hope that answers your questions.
Sorry about the long paragraph but there you go!
