Monster Mash

Second only to Halo, this is my favorite game for the Xbox. There are better looking games and more revolutionary games, but for sheer fun, especially multiplayer fun, this is definitely worth having, or at least renting.

By now you know the concept: Gauntlet type melee set in the White Wolf universe. Hunter is non-stop action and is one of the first gmaes in a long time that allows you to pull out those extra controllers and play with friends. The multiplayer elements is highly addictive and requires a lot of team work and communication. Since it's not a first person-shooter, the action isn't divided into tiny screens and while it can get crowded on screen, especially with dozens of zombies chasing after you, it's still easy to see what's going on.

The graphics are excellent, the sound, and music are well done and the characters are really cool, I just wish there were more of them. Some of the later levels are extremely difficult and require a lot more tactics than you might be used to. The early levels are just hack and slash goodness. There's something to be said for both.

Those of you who actually play with friends or family should give this one a gander. There seems to be a flood of good sinle-player games on the market but very few multi-player. If nothing else Hunter has filled a gap that desperately needed filling.

Awesome

Hunter the Reckoning hasnt gotten much hype but i played this game today and it is awesome. This game is up there with the greats such as Halo and Max Payne. For anyone who owns an xbox , you have to get this game. The storyline is great. The graphics are unbelievable and there is so much to do in the game. Believe me... once you have started playing this game you wont be able to put it down until you have beaten it.

go to ... the link to the official Hunter site

not just a hack-n-slash? right. personally i'd say this is just a hack-n-slash, but a hack-n-slash well worth your money. anyways, what could be better than killing some zombies with 1 to 3 other friends? well of course there is better things, but in the realm of multiplayer there isn't many. i suggest you get this because i know when you're done playing you and your friends will be saying, "Whoa! That was awesome! Did you see when I...," etc., etc., etc. And if you're playing alone you'll be saying, "I can't wait to play tommorrow!" just get it.
there are four characters. two females, both of course with guns and a lot of fancy moves. two males, my favorite one being the preacher (the guy with the long hair and brown trenchcoat. the one on the front of the cover) because he's got a sword, a crossbow, and magical powers. the other guy is a biker with an axe.

reason alone to take advantage of the price-slashed XBOX

This game alone is reason to buy an Xbox. I preordered from the Interplay Web site and rec'd a free DVD of Night of the Living Dead. I specifically bought a lawn chair and a 30-pack of beer and left work early to play it once it arrived and all I can say is: This game does to video games what Romero's dead trilogy did to movies, therefore it is appropriate that the special edition DVD was included free. This one is a buy, buy, buy.

The first truly great XBox game

This is the best purchase you can make for the XBox yet. It's better than Halo, better than Max Payne, this thing is it. It came out yesterday and I couldn't wait so I ran out and bought it. It fulfilled every expectation I had for it. I have never seen so many enemies on a screen at one time with such good graphics. Finally, a really, really good reason to own an XBox.

This game is fun and full of action

I really liked this game and definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys third person games. It's a typical Hack and Slash game with a great storyline. THe graphics are a plus, there are a good selection of enemies to fight off, and U can play multiplayer for hours. I think anyone interested should at least rent it and then you will be hooked and will want to buy it.

Like Resident Evil for Xbox!

This is one of the best hack'n slash game on the Xbox. It's definetly worth buying if you like Resident Evil or House of the Dead. The graphics are very good and add to the scary environments. The best part about the game is facing off against hordes of monsters and mowing them down with guns and melee weapons such as battle axes and chain saws. The game starts easy and progressively gets harder, but not so hard you can't eventually defeat whatever you are fighting. The game is a lot of fun with multiplayer but the monsters are also harder to kill. It's better to play with more than two people if you can because the game gets so hard in multiplayer.

There are quite a few weapons that are all sweet to use and monsters to blow away piece by piece. If you at all don't like graphic games then this isn't your game. There is an option to turn the blood off but then it wouldn't be the same. There can be up to 30 monsters on screen at one time and once you get done massacreing all of them there is always puddles of blood everywhere.

So if you don't mind blood and love killing zombies and other freaks o'nature then you don't want to pass up this game!

Lots of multiplayer fun!

I had been counting the days until this game was released. It looked very cool from all the previews and the final product does not disappoint! The graphics are great and the 5.1 sound is very active. It is a lot like Gauntlet: Dark Legacy, but with better graphics, sound, and storyline.

The visuals in this game are fantastically detailed. You can chop off zombie heads, arms, torsos, and legs...all with the requisite blood splatter. The 5.1 sound is very good in letting you know where the monsters are coming from. The multiplayer option allows up to four people to play together at the same time without splitting the screen. All in all, I have yet to find a fault with this game.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this game is flat out FUN!! i wouldnt go as far as to say its better then halo but its the best game on xbox since halo. yes its a hard game but the multiplayer is fun if your friends know how to play. the only problem with the game is the camera is in difficult angles sometimes but it doesnt ruin it. tons of weapons and firepower, and there are over 30 different types of enemies like mutant sewer rats and peices of meat to giant teddy bears and gargoyles. you will love this game, i garuntee it, its the Resident Evil of xbox in a different form. instead of peeing your pants scared its laugh out loud fun!

ONE OF X-BOX'S BEST
