Game modes:Single player
Story:Time refuses to forget the Belmont family's horrifying, bloody destiny. And in 1917 two of its descendants are summoned by fate into epic battle. Their enemy? The most evil incarnation of Castlevania legacy to ever rise from the grave, the vampiress Countess Bartley. This spine-tingling, 6-stage fear-fest overflows with graphic sights and sounds from your worst nightmares. As John Morris, the whip wielding vampire hunter, or Eric Lecarde, master lanceman, you'll pursue the demonic Countess all across Europe before she resurrects Dracula for a final reign of global terror. Alas, her trail of doom is laden with zombies, hideous mutants, grotesque giants, ghouls and ghastly creatures. Taste the sweat dripping into your mouth as you try rescuing yourself from diabolical traps. Feel the torturous strain on every muscle as you wield again and again sacred weapon power-ups such as Holy Water, the Battle Axe, the Crystal Blade Boomerang and the Mirror of Truth. But in the end, make sure you've saved enough strength to scream!Show more

This might come as a huge surprise. Castlevania: Bloodlines was my favorite Castlevania game within Castlevania Anniversary Collection. Not because it's the solo Sega Castlevania game I'm not that bias. No because what it brought to the table. You get to play as two hunters. John Morris whose essentially the Belmont in the game. Eric Lecarde has the Alucard Spear. Personally I prefer playing as Eric more. He gets a longer reach that's helpful. Also he gets this awesome high jump as well. I'm not saying John sucks by any means. It just the typical Belmont experience when you're him. I actually liked we get to explore through the country. Eventually working our way into Dracula's castle. Yes they did try bringing two canons together. Castlevania canon with that of Dracula novel canon that strikingly works. This is among the goriest classic Castlevania games. Which can differ on that depending on region versions. Some of the visuals late into the game fantastic work. It's sorta like a particular stage in Rocket Knight Adventures also by Konami. What I love about this is unlike most classic Castlevania games. There isn't an timer meaning I can take longer to get through the stages. The artwork is truly amazing. The audio as a whole beautifully done. This game is between overlooked simply by other Castlevania games or not a lot of people knows of it's existence. I hope Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Sega Genesis Mini 1 fixed that problem. Some of my favorite versions for the bosses. Mostly The Creature actually is my favorite version of the character. The last stage you gotta bring it to beat the game. It's a shame this was the only solo Sega Castlevania game. Yes I know about Sega Saturn port of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. Not quite the same thing here. Some even argue this is way better than that port.

Infamous: Second Son - Limited Edition
Infamous: Second Son - Limited EditionThis edition, when pre-ordered, also comes with the exclusive Cole's Legacy. Cole's Legacy is an expansion pack for Infamous: Second Son which was initially available only by pre-ordering the game (For US Customers), or purchasing the Special Edition (All other Countries). The pack contains missions uncovering the events which happened during the seven year time span between the activation of the RFI in Infamous 2 and the storyline of Infamous: Second Son. This is the only time when Zeke Dunbar makes a cameo appearance and Dr. Sebastian Wolfe's brother Raymond Wolfe appears in a cameo as well. After completion of Cole's Legacy, the Cole's original bike courier jacket is awarded for in-game use. The design of the jacket is slightly different compared to the first two games of the series. In this game, the design of the jacket shows some tears in the front and the back of the jacket and rather than the yellow pads being sewed up on top of the black jacket, the yellow and the black are sewn together imitating as a jacket pad-less. There are also some more minor changes such as the zipper on the jacket is also revealed due to Delsin wearing it without zipping it up and covering it, and also small changes to the collar area of the jacket. Since June 25, 2014, European Infamous: Second Son players can now access the Cole’s Legacy’ DLC from the PlayStation Store

The storyline is exactly the same as the movie itself and each chapter will bring you further in the story. Every chapter will have various goals set. Only one specific goal per chapter is required to complete the chapter so you can always replay the chapter later to try to complete all the goals. Every stage will also require you to play as a different character and some will involve all characters. Each character have their own unique abilities: Marty can kick with his hind legs, sneak around his enemies slide and perform long-jumps. Alex the lion can throw fruits, use his claws and roar at his enemies. Gloria can tumble, butt bounce and hip check her enemies. And when she eats some chili peppers, she will be able to charge into her enemies. Melman can spin into, throw items at and head bash his enemies. He can also perform the Helicopter move which enables him to glide long distances. Finally the Penguin can slide, fish and attack with a Finishing move (something like a karate chop) to defeat their enemies. Throughout the game there will be various items to collect including Life Tikis to replenish your Health Meter and Monkey Money that will enable you to buy special things at the Zoovenir Shop like mini games and special outfits for the Madagascar cast.

Okage: Shadow King
Okage: Shadow KingConquer your demons and you may conquer the world in this distinctly styled role-playing adventure for the PlayStation 2. Some have compared the look of this game to Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas and the fluid, stop-motion appearance of the three-dimensional characters is not completely unlike that seen in seasonal television specials. OKAGE: Shadow King is not a holiday story, however, but a dark tale of polar opposites that questions basic notions of identity and essence. Players take the role of Ari, a young man with a remarkable affliction. A powerful demon -- calling himself "Stan" -- has taken refuge in Ari's shadow and is becoming infused in the boy's life. To free both his demon and himself, Ari embarks on a dangerous and involved quest to rid the world of seven other rival demons. Though he suffers under the burden of playing host to Stan, Ari is also aided from time to time by his demon's powers and the two begin to forge a symbiotic relationship.
