Do you own multiple consoles? Are you not considered a fanboy, just a gamer who wants the best bang for their buck? Then you have come to the right place. Our Head2Head features take an unbiased look at cross platform titles and uncover the superior version. Some may think we are being nit-picky about slight texture differences, lighting and load times. But we don’t. Games are expensive and you owe it to yourself to choose the best experience.
Mass Effect 2 was launched, selling over 2 million copies in the first week according to 1up.com and receiving a Metacritic score of 96. With numbers like that, Lens of Truth had to take a closer look at Mass Effect 2. What better way than a Mass Effect Evolution? Sit back as we take a look at how the universe of Mass Effect has changed over the years.
This week Lens of Truth puts Dark Void under our lens to see which version can escape the Bermuda Triangle and return as winner of this week’s Head2Head. But first we would like to thank our always reliable sponsor Play N Trade (Oviedo) for supplying us with yet another great game to analyze for this Head2Head. As always, Lens of Truth was able to find some differences between the two versions, so if you’re interested in which version is worth taking the $60 plunge, watch the video and read on because you are in for quite a ride.
In this Head2Head the Lens of Truth takes a look at the retail versions of Army of Two: The 40th Day. Supplied by Play N Trade (Oviedo), this sequel throws you right into action and lets you know there is no time to waste. Watch the video and read on for an in-depth analysis.
Update: After some re-analysis of the footage, it seems that our numbers were inaccurate during some terrifically “tear-iffic” scenes. Special thanks to ps360 for pointing this out! That being said, the analyzer has been re-tooled and is now better than ever. The stats and links below have been updated to reflect the new, accurate video and footage.
Thanks again to Play n Trade Oviedo for supplying us with yet another great game to compare. Before we continue on to the Head2Head, here’s a brief description of what to expect. The game takes its inspiration from the apocalypse and battle of Armageddon described in the Book of Revelation, with the player taking the role of “War”, one of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. Deceived by the forces of evil into prematurely bringing about the end of mankind, War, the first Horseman of the Apocalypse stands accused of breaking the sacred law by inciting a war between Heaven and Hell.
Welcome back for another exciting Head2Head brought to you by our friends at Play N Trade (Lake Mary). This week the Lens of Truth was initially going to analyze The Saboteur, but due to some unforeseen issues with the PlayStation 3 we were unable to do so. Fortunately, that wasn’t the only game of interest this week. We have wanted to do Avatar for some time now but never got the chance. Well, now’s our chance. So if Avatar is on your list for Santa then you’re gonna want to stick around to see which game landed on the naughty list.
Welcome back for yet another exciting Head2Head brought to you by Play N Trade (Oviedo)! This week we take a ride with the newest addition to motor sports racing, MX vs. ATV Reflex. The question begs: which version is the muddiest and which version should be buried 6 feet under? Wipe the mud from your eyes and let’s get dirty, cause you’re about to find out!
Welcome back for yet another exciting Head2Head brought to you by Play N Trade (Oviedo)! This week we finally had a chance to sit down and tackle the highly-anticipated and often requested Head2Head of Bioware’s latest epic adventure, Dragon Age: Origins for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles. So which version of Dragon Age: Origins deserves Grey Warden status and which one should have stayed in the dungeon? Keep reading to find out!
This week the Lens of Truth was able to get our mitts on another blockbuster game: Assassin’s Creed II. This hands-on exclusive was made possible by the noble folks at Play N Trade (Lake Mary). Watch the video analysis to see which version makes you feel like you’re in the Renaissance and which one makes you feel like you’re at a Renaissance Faire.
