Re: Scratch Gamer Magazine-Now Hiring

Portal
Platform(s): PC, Mac, PS3, Xbox 360
Developer: Valve
Release date: 9th October 2007 (Portal), 19th April 2011 (Portal 2)

Portal is a first-person shooter, but with a fantastically innovative mechanic: Portals. You pick up a portal gun and you have to make your way through the test chambers of Aperture Science. You are not alone, however. You are accompanied by the voice of GLaDOS, who 'helps' you through the tests. There are some genuinely hard puzzles, you really have to 'think with portals' in order to solve. Despite this, the whole game is a little short, but what there is is extremely satisfying.

Portal 2 adds new mechanics which makes for new solutions and added fun. As well as the main story (playing as the protagonist Chell), there is also a Co-op campaign, where players go through test chambers as Atlas and P-body, who have to work together, along with portals to complete puzzles. On top of that there is a level editor, along with Steam workshop, users can create levels and play levels created by other players.

Portal is a fantastic series, that does a lot in terms of puzzling and innovation. It deserves a perfect score.

10/10

Paper Mario Sticker star review:

Paper Mario is back on a new adventure on your 3DS! In the game, the town has a "sticker fest" but Bowser comes and touches the Sticker Comet and the Sticker Comet explodes scattering stickers known as the Royal Stickers everywhere.  Mario wakes up to find a sticker named Kertsi who accompanies Mario on his journey to find all the royal stickers and defeat Bowser! Of course, Mario will have to stomp on goombas and more enemies on his way, but there is a completely different battle system! You can find stickers such as hammers and jump stickers in the stages to add to your sticker album, and use them in battle. there are different versions of some stickers, like a hammer might appear as a worn-out hammer or a shiny hammer. That can affect the damage that sticker does in battle! There are also ultra rare stickers, such as the scissors and the Baseball bat, which are rare and extremely powerful.
one other thing is that there is a "paperize" mode where time stops and you can put things and stickers down to help get past a obstacle. There is plenty of action in this game, as enemies are always begging for a fight and the boss fights are difficult. This is worth a game picking up.

This game is awesome, so I will give it a 10/10 because it has amazing 3D graphics and plenty of action. 10/10

When I'm stuck on what to do I look at my collection, and if that dosent work I play some to get inspiration. I don't usually get stuck, because I'm a retro gamer, the games are really cheap, so I have about 150 games. But then again, you don't have to do a review, you could do an article on a game company or maybe rumors on the PS4 and XBox 720. Just some suggestions.

As far as I've heard, there is no more news, besides, I can handle the news section.

Yeah, they had shipping problems in america, so you can't get it from a lot of shops. But Nintendo have a bad reputation of not releasing their RPG's in Europe and Austrailia.

Re: Scratch Gamer Magazine-Now Hiring

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones
Platform(s): Gameboy Advanced, Virtual Console
Release Date(s): 7th October 2004 (Jp)
23rd May 2005 (US)
16th December 2011 (Virtual Console)
Developer: Intelligent Systems

Fire Emblem is a Tactical, turn-based, RPG. It is the eighth game in the Fire Emblem series, but only the second to be released outside of Japan. It is very story based, with a lot of cutscenes and dialogue to show this. It uses a rock-paper-scissors style of battling with lance-sword-axe. You control your team by moving them from space to space. You can perform certain actions (e.g. attack) when you are in the the space you want to perform the action on. There are (is in most, if not all RPG's) XP, Levelling up and stats.

It is a great games to fans of RPG's and is a good game to play now, as Fire Emblem: Awakening is releasing outside of Japan. The only slight problem is that there is a lot of dialogue and you may - like me - find yourself skipping through text, ending up missing an important plot point. Despite not being the most impressive game graphically, it still has a charm with the colourful characters.

A great game, and a great place to start playing Fire Emblem.

8/10

Pokemon Gold and Silver review:

After the first games in the series, Pokemon Red and Blue, became a hit, Nintendo and Game Freak decided to make the next addition to the series, Pokemon Gold and Silver, this time in full color.
In 1999, the game was released in Japan, and in 2000, it was released in America and Europe. The game had an entire new world of Pokemon, and after beating the game players could go to the original region to catch the original 151 Pokemon. The mascots for the new games was the legendary bird Pokemon Ho-Oh in Gold, and the legendary sea Pokemon Lugia in Silver. There was a new storyline with pretty much brand new everything.

The graphics had very well improved when it came out, due to being in color, and also the fact that the sprites were way better drawn (especially manchop, who's sprite was very poorly drawn in the first game). Also it had better sound affects and music, as well as animation.

This is a good game to start with it you have not played Pokemon. So, lets say this game improved greatly, but still has its problems, so I'll say a notch below perfect.
9.9/10
