Amnesia: The Dark Descent

ValuSoft
Frictional Games
Horror Action Adventure
Release: Feb 17, 2011 
ESRB: Mature
A good horror game from not so well known publisher. As u can see from the title your character will be facing amnesia and will try to remember what he is and what he has to do along the way. It is very atmospheric game that will give u shivers when wondering in a old haunted castle. No support for a game pad however.









Score: 9/10

Velvet Assassin

SouthPeak Games
Replay Studios , ML Enterprises
Historic Tactical Shooter
Release: Apr 30, 2009
ESRB: Mature
As the title suggests u will be playing as a assassin er (a secret British agent to be more exact) during the WWII in German occupied France. This game is pure stealth and is nothing like Splinter Cell. All killings are mostly done by sneaking behind your enemy with a knife. 

Shooting is the worse case scenario and there is very few ammo to find in each level. If u manage not to take an enemy with a head shot u r almost dead. This game is unforgiving but that's what it makes so unique and enjoyable. This is one of the hardest games I can remember.

Xbox 360 emulation software works fine.


Score: 7/10

Mafia II: Jimmy's Vendetta

2K Games
2K Czech
Historic Action Adventure
Release: Sep 7, 2010
ESRB: Mature
This is a DLC for Mafia II. After completing the original game I decided to check on this one. It will give a few hours of game play by offering to complete some short missions like steal a particular car or kill some guys within a time limit.
 
There is a new Xbox 360 emulation software which is more user friendly than those pack of files. Download link is in software section.







Score: 9/10
