With this blog, it will be easier to post videos about different games as well as encouraging people to submit their game play videos.  Ideally, videos should be Xbox 360 related, but I will accept other video game related videos as well.  So, if you have a video game video you want to share, I'd be happy to post it. 2010-10-25 13:24:02 http://xboxfreak.ws/gamevideosblog&p=87FC18C2D31479E3E040A8C0AC000B25 Get the official review of Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood here screen shot of Call of Juarez, submitted by arafo on Flickr The Call of Juarez is a unique western shooter and is perhaps one of my favorite western shooters out there.  Plays out almost like a John Wayne movie or some of those other similar westerns.  It is definitely a must have for any of you who are into the old west. Game Rating: 9/10 Game overview (watch the official trailer for the game on youtube, submitted by Machinima) In the Call of Juarez, you follow the roles of Thomas and Ray, who are two brothers who become fugatives after deserting the Confederate Army during the Civil War when their farm gets attacked by union soliders.  Rather than sticking around and risking getting hanged by the confederate army (especially with their former Colonel, Barnsby hot on their trail), the brothers set out on a journey to recover a fabled medallion that apparently offers both wealth and a curse.  As the game plays out, the brothers encounter hostile towns, fight mercenaries, rescue a hot hispanic woman, named Marisa from gangsters, go up against native americans, go up against Colonel Barnsby who is determined to see the brothers hang (even after the war ends), form interesting allies, including a mexican treasure hunter, named Juarez, a disgruntled Navajo indian (who opposes his father's war against the settlers) as well as a devout Christian missionary who serves as an advisor for the two brothers in their journey.    How the game plays out?  Play the game to find out.  What I liked about the game Great graphics - you will find that the graphics in this game are amazing.  You almost feel like you are actually in a old western movie, complete with scenery, cut scenes, voice acting and all.  Also, authentic desert, western towns, mountains and similar scenery More than 15 long levels of game play, and so it is not too long nor too short.  This game will keep you busy for a while.  This game does come with an online multiplayer feature (similar to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2).  So if you find this game too short, you can always play the game on Xbox live Plenty of secrets to unlock Gun fights come in the place of boss battles Good voice acting Negative aspects about the game This game might be a little dark for some (not exactly a game a kid might like) If you are not into the old west, this game might not be for you The gun fights can be difficult for people who have slow reflexes.  Limited arsenal So there you go, if you are into western shooters, you will love this game.  Of course the game does have its darker elements, and so it might not be real suitable for the younger crowd, and some elements will be tricky for players, such as the gun fights.  Thinking about getting this game?  Check out these links at Amazon.com  Comments about this game Have a comment about this game you want to share?  Be sure to post it in the comment box. 2010-10-06 14:30:31 http://xboxfreak.ws/gamevideosblog&p=87FC1791F8BA41CDE040A8C0AC000B27 Just fyi, I decided to change the focus of the blog.  Originally, it was going to be a general blog about my site. but for now on it will be devoted to game reviews.  Whenever I have a review about the game, I will post it here.  Also, if you have reviews you want to share, email me at ryansjones@xboxfreak.ws and I would be happy to post it here. 2010-10-06 13:54:46 http://xboxfreak.ws/gamevideosblog&p=87FC17C4E02FA694E040A8C0AC000B23 As you probably know, I used to have a Nintendo Wii for a while.  However, when my middle brother moved out of the house earlier this year, he took the Nintendo Wii with him, and so I no longer have a Wii.  I was in the middle of Metroid Prime 2 and Zelda Twilight Princesswhen it happened, and so I will not be able to finish those two games at this time.  I am working on saving up money for a new Wii, but It will probably be a while before I get a new one.  2010-08-18 23:58:58 http://xboxfreak.ws/gamevideosblog&p=87FC17B8533979E3E040A8C0AC000B25 Pardon my mess on the Xbox 360 review page I have.  I decided to revise it and make the review much more compelling.  I've been learning about preselling lately and I decided that I am going to adopt that into my marketing plan too, such as writing compelling reviews. 2010-08-18 23:54:23 http://xboxfreak.ws/gamevideosblog&p=87FC1AFCC1EFF073E040A8C0AC000B2B As I found out, Global Domains International (the web host I use) now offers custom blogs for websites, and so I am going to start using this blog as my official blog for this site, as opposed to the blog I have on blogspot: http://rjvideogamer.blogspot.com and so, for now, I will be posting future blog posts into this new blog. In this blog, I will talk about the Xbox 360 games I am playing, share with you gaming related news, site updates and other stuff.  Also, feel free to add to this blog, share videos, game reviews, etc here. 2010-08-18 23:52:27
