It’s February and love is in the air! PlayStation plus members are getting the love this month in the form of three exciting and very different games available now in the PlayStation store.
Evil Dead: The Game
Klattu, Barada, Nickel? Necktie? Whatever! If you’re a fan of Ash Williams , evil dead, with the television show Ash vs evil dead you are going to want to download evil dead the game.
This multiplayer PvP game, also has a single player mode, but is built as a multiplayer game. Evil Dead pits players against the evil of the Necronomicon. Gamers can pick from one of the heroes From the movies and TV series, including Henry the Red, and Ash’s bruja sidekick from the TV show, Pablo.
If gamers choose the side of evil, they can pick from several demon classes like the puppeteer or necromancer, all which have unique set of powers and traits. As players level in the game they can apply spirit points to their characters to unlock special skills and powers that will help them survive longer and do more or take less damage in the game.
The premise of the Evil Dead the game is that the human players need to search the playing map to find an ancient dagger and map which will allow them to locate the Necronomicon and destroy it, vanquishing evil. As the demonic player, the goal is to prevent the mortals in locating these items before it’s too late!
This is a fast paced game and is a lot of fun. That being said, the game heavily favors the humans when they work together. Being a demon player is difficult and a little frustrating when trying to locate the survivors before they locate the quiets items. Players have to pay attention to their notifications to be able to track down survivors quickly.
Since the initial release of Evil Dead the game there have been several upgrades to gameplay as well as new characters, like the demon Plaguebringer, and abilities added free of charge.
Mafia: The Definitive Edition
Have you ever wanted to drive around in an early Ford, hang out the window and take out your enemies with a Tommy gun? Maybe it’s just me… But if you’re a fan of mobster movies, mafia documentaries, and open world games you might want to download mafia: the definitive edition, capicé?
Mafia: the definitive edition is the re-working from the ground up of the 2002 classic that started it all. Everything has been redone from the graphics, sound, even the voice performances have been re-done for this new updated version.
Despite being an “open world “ game mafia follows a very linear storyline, and you cannot explore as much of the city as you would like. however, the missions and gameplay available are definitely fun and enjoyable. I especially enjoy the Louis Armstrong that’s played on the radio, a noticeable update from what I remember in 2002.
There are several options available to make the gameplay more challenging, including a simulation setting, which gives more realistic controls to the cars. Players will also have to watch their speed as minor infractions can attract the attention of the law. Players will also have to be mindful of how they reload their weapons, any cartridges not used will be discarded and lost.
Olli Olli World
Don’t let the cute and colorful design of this side scrolling skater game fool you… It is a tough, challenging, and most importantly, fun game!
Ollie Ollie world is a step away from traditional skating games. It’s simple enough for casual or younger gamers to pick up and play with ease yet challenging enough For veteran gamers to really get creative with the dynamic move system.
Ollie Ollie world offers A very diverse range of character customization. It really allows players to create a truly unique skater in this world.
Ollie Ollie world does an excellent job in campaign mode by slowly introducing the mechanics of the game which allows the gamer to learn how to use and incorporate that into their play style.
Also different from other skating type games is Ollie Ollie world doesn’t punish the gamers for missing jumps and executing moves, rather it rewards players for the execution and the attempt. If players do not land a move perfectly they won’t crash instead they won’t get the maximum amount of points for that move.
Once players finish the campaign mode, they unlock two other levels which will allow them to compete in online leader boards, as well as take part a randomly generated map game mode.
