Now you have Mega Man that is on his way back. This is a game that some old-timers do remember fondly, as having been able to give them some challenging moments of joy and thrill. The game comes back to its 8-but roots, and its design is similar. But Mega Man in its brand new avatar is not quite as inspiring and great as its distinguished predecessor. Capcom had delivered its best yet performance with the original version of Mega Man and the new version does not really come up to the expectations that had been set earlier.

To be fair to the new version of Mega Man, there are some redeeming features of the new version. For one, the game is a good challenge for many of its age-old fans. It also has a number of levels, that are well designed and able to offer many challenges that captivate players. The easy mode is also better for those who do not like old-world challenges. But the new Mega Man version does not have very good weapons which is a huge complaint.  There are some aspects of Mega Man in its new version that do not have as good robot master designs as before. The game, frankly, leaves a lot to desire.

There are some great things that come in small but nice packages. This is quite true of the game Toy Soldiers, where the soldiers may be quite small but then they are bundles of joy and fin once you get down to the business of playing the games. These games are set back in World War 1 , where soldiers had to jump into and fight from trenches, and also take on the enemy from all sides. Some of the main features of the game are that the soldiers can jump into the units and trenches and fire into the enemy ranks. Similarly, it is also possible to control biplanes and tanks, at will, which increases the interest in the game. There is also a great incentive to replay the game over and over again.

But there are some aspects of the game that you need to contend with, which are not all that great. In Toy Soldiers, you cannot co-op play and the battlefields are also not too big. In addition, it is also true that the game seems to be a bit confusing as it does not say in the promotional videos that the game is a tower defense game. You just cannot guess this at all from these videos.

One of these games is Endless Ocean, which has the promise of being so absorbing and extremely riveting to engage the most ardent of game players. While the promise is there, the reality does not really live up to the promise. The main setting of the game of Endless Ocean is such that it makes you a diver, who is able to go down into the very depths of the ocean and look for treasure which is what makes it quite interesting.

There are some things about Endless Ocean that take away from the overall experience and its thrills, which include bad writing and sloppy production, just to name a few of its ills. It is almost the gaming experience equivalent of what are known as the bends in diving parlance, where you fail to decompress when coming back to the ocean surface, causing lots of pain and discomfort galore. But even then, as a diver, it is quite an experience to look at getting into the deep blue ocean and come up so close with all the many adventures that lie beneath.
