Killzone 3 (Playstation Move Compatible)

Simply Games Ltd Product Information
Preview By Shaun Mc Innis, Game Spot May 27, 2010 Killzone 3 picks up right after the second game. A nuclear detonation has rendered the Helghan homeworld a scarred wasteland, but there’s still a war to be fought even as the enemy Helghast’s chain of power remains uncertain in the wake of the last game’s conclusion. You’ll once again assume control of an ISA soldier named Sev and work in tandem with his squadmate Rico, but this time the members of this squad will be trekking across a more wide-ranging selection of Helghan locales. Whereas you spent the vast majority of Killzone 2 shooting Helghast soldiers in urban streets and alleyways, the next game will take you on a tour through Arctic seas, irradiated jungles, and eventually outer space. Development on Killzone 3 kicked off right after its predecessor shipped last January, and one of the big new features that has been worked on ever since then is getting the game running in full stereoscopic 3D. We had the opportunity to play in said number of dimensions, and even at this early stage with plenty of rough spots, it was a visual treat. Killzone 2 already did depth-of-field really well with the way it blurred out close objects like the stock of your rifle or the green-dot scope that pops up when you look down your gun’s sights. But in 3D, objects meant to be at the front of your immediate field of view really pop out, like your hand when you’ve got a knife equipped or the rockets zipping by your head during those moments when you’ve got to deal with explosives-wielding Helghast. The one downer was that seeing the game in 3D produced a lot more aliasing and jagged edges than when we played in traditional 2D, as well as some ghosting of interface elements like the crosshair and screen text. Hopefully Guerrilla will be able to iron out those bugs, because the 3D effect is overall pretty impressive. Better bundle up, because it’s gonna be a cold one. Finally, it’s worth noting that even after moving on from the last game’s gloomy urban streets, Guerrilla seems to have managed a fairly intense atmosphere even in the daytime Arctic. Between the flurries of snow falling every which way in shifting winds, a thrashing sea nearby, and the usual whizz of bullets and violent groans from fallen soldiers, there’s a lot competing for your attention. It all made us eager to see how some of the other environments look and sound. We should get a better idea as we get closer to Killzone 3’s 2011 release date. Players will be tasked with utilizing a host of new weapons and vehicles in the battle for human survival. Helghast variety is now greater than ever, with players facing jetpack troopers as well as enemies wielding weapons of mass destruction. Killzone 3 thoroughly explores the planet Helghan, showcasing a wide breadth of destructible environments and stunningly detailed scenery. Additionally, players will be tasked with utilizing a host of new weapons and vehicles in the war to stop the Helghast. Featuring an extensive single-player campaign and thrilling multi-player mode, Killzone 3 delivers a host of new gameplay elements and an intense storyline that will once again drive gamers to join the ranks of the ISA and fight the Helghast.Continuing from Killzone 2, players find Emperor Visari, the viscious dictator of the Helghast, dead at the feet of Sev and Rico. However this war is far from won. In the wake of Visari's death, Helghan has devolved into a world of political scheming, rapid infighting, and murder. Now, the two most powerful men on Helghan are fighting for complete and utter dominance while Visari's vision of Helghan is in jeopardy. With limited supplies and no re-enforcements, the ISA must now fight not to win a war, but to survive a lost one.Hollywood-style production value with action-focused narrative that mirrors the David vs. Goliath theme Much bigger environments throughout the game, including nuclear wastelands, alien jungles, and arctic vistas.

A Long Way Gone

Oxfam Online Shop Product Information
A first-person account, told by a 25-year-old veteran of the Sierra Leone conflict, this title is a heartbreaking, honest and important memoir about the horrors of war and the lost innocence of the youthful combatants. The first-person account of a 26-year-old who fought in the war in Sierra Leone as a 12-year-old boy. 'My new friends have begun to suspect that I haven't told them the full story of my life. "Why did you leave Sierra Leone?" "Because there is a war." "You mean, you saw people running around with guns and shooting each other?" "Yes, all the time." "Cool." I smile a little. "You should tell us about it sometime." "Yes, sometime."' This is how wars are fought now: by children, hopped-up on drugs and wielding AK-47s. There are more than fifty conflicts going on worldwide and it is estimated there are some 300,000 child soldiers fighting. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them. What is war like through the eyes of a child soldier? How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But until now, there has not been a first-person account from someone who came through this hell and survived. Ishmael Beah, now twenty-five years old, tells a riveting story: how at the age of twelve in Sierra Leone, he fled attacking rebels and wandered a land rendered unrecognizable by violence. By thirteen, he'd been picked up by the government army, and Beah, at heart a gentle boy, found he was capable of truly terrible acts. This is a rare and mesmerizing account, told with real literary force and heartbreaking honesty.
