Console games are slated for release to make all those dreams possible. And, if that’s not enough for you, there are also games that focus on Crusade adventures and hunting in Africa.
For tennis fans who don’t want to get dusty playing the actual game, there’s the option of getting active in front of a monitor instead. Sega has released the fourth edition of its Virtua Tennis game. The core of the new game is its world tour mode, enriched with elements of role-playing.
Thus, decisions made off the court during the game can still influence the outcome. All of the big stars are there, from Rafael Nadal to Roger Federer to Andy Murray among the men to Venus Williams, Maria Shaparova to Svetlana Kuznetzova for the women.
The game is available for Sony’s Playstation 3 (PS3), Microsoft’s XBox 360 and Nintendo’s Wii. It supports multiple movement-controlled systems, like Move, Kinect and Wii.
There have also been significant changes in the game’s online mode. People can scour the globe for tennis partners with similar skill levels. There is also a 3D feature in the PS3 version, which includes an enhanced depth perception setting, allowing shots to be better placed.
The PS3 and XBox versions sell for about 60 euros (89 dollars), while others go for about 50 euros.
Fans of Lego and the pirate captain Jack Sparrow will be able to see their two favourites collide in Lego Pirates of the Caribbean: The Video Game from Disney Interactive.
The game features the entire saga’s storyline, including scenes from the newest film On Stranger Tides, set for release this month. Players have their choice of 70 different characters before launching into the adventure. There are 20 worlds to explore, with a variety of locations created just for the game and oceans to be explored at will.
The game is set for a May 12 release for all major platforms, costing about 50 euros for the PS3 and XBox and 40 euros for the Wii. Versions are also expected for PCs, the Nintendo DS and 3DS and Sony’s PSP.
Hunting may not be for everyone, but Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2011 from Activision still tries its hardest. The game focuses on Cole Rainsford as he heads from his home in the United States to Africa to hunt wild game with his father and stop the animals from harassing villages and people.
But this is not classical hunting, rather a kind of first-person shooter in an exotic setting. It doesn’t take long before the sharp-eyed duo finds themselves in precarious and life-threatening situations — the kind from which one only escapes with some big guns. There are no prisoners taken here.
Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2011 is available for the PS3, XBox and Wii. The PS3 version sells for 40 euros and is compatible with Move, while the XBox version costs 70 euros, packaged with a gun controller. The Wii package costs 50 euros.
Players of action-adventure The First Templar from Kalypso Media will find themselves taken to a completely different time. There are no guns here, but plenty of swords and shields.
The game is set in the 13th century, focusing on the Knight Templar Celian and the blue-blooded Marie as they make their way through Europe towards the Middle East to investigate an ominous intrigue. Role-playing elements make sure the game doesn’t get boring.
It’s important that the two protagonists work together, which is why it’s best to find a good partner for the adventure. People who like puzzles won’t be disappointed. Scheduled for an early May release and exclusively for the XBox 360, it should cost 60 euros. A PC version is also expected.
Finally, there’s a game with the same genre, but a more mystical setting. Sega’s Thor: God of Thunder puts players in the skin of the Nordic thunder god Thor, son of Odin, whose primary weapon is the hammer Mjoellnir.
If the hammer is swung, then it’s time for Thor’s foes to take cover. People who like brawling games will get their kicks out of the spectacular combos the game allows. For long-distance attacks, Thor is gifted with power over the elements, which can take down even the mightiest and strongest opponents.
