Critics Consensus: Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new Far Cry 3 expansion that has to do with the 80's. Wha....
I REALLY HOPE you know what you are going into when you load up Far Cry 3:Blood Dragon. I do not expect you to be a total idiot and not know by the box art but if any of you guys bought The Walking Dead:Survival Instinct. Anyway it's an 80's party.
First of all Blood Dragon is funny and full of 80's nostalgia as Steve Zaragoza from Sourcefed said. The whole thing is an adventure and one crazy one to be exact. The gameplay is great as SmoshGames praised and the only thing that could not make Far Cry 3:Blood Dragon better than everything out there is the long annoying cutscenes that span many minutes.
Overall get this game.
Far Cry 3:Blood Dragon is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Deadly Premonition: The Director's Cut

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a port of the cult classic Deadly Premonition.
Deadly Premonition was a cult classic for a reason. Sure it was a really weird game. And when I say that do not look up why I said that because you will  get your mind scarred. It was scary and original too while the big tops like Resident Evil cannot even strive for that.
The reason this port is getting some negative attention from critics like IGN and the Official Playstation Magazine UK is that for some reason the Playstation 3 can not handle the open-world too well. Causing things to glitch out. Though the story is great and gameplay is intuitive so I guess it's worth a try.
Deadly Premonition is rated M.

Critics Consensus:Iron Man 3

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is Iron Man 3!
NOTE:This post was delayed because I was on vacation. Sorry.

Iron Man was amazing raisin,Iron Man 2 was OK and somewhat of a disappointment. So when Marvel announced Iron Man 3, the trailer looked cool but people were kind of skeptic. This is Shane Black's first movie in a while so let's hope he can regain from that.
To start off Iron Man 3 has a 79% on RottenTomatoes and a 62 on Metacritic. It's not the monolith that the original Iron Man was because the plot is a little bit starchy, but nevertheless the action is amazing and it is actually funny sometimes which I would think would be hard for a dramatic movie like this to do. Keep in mind that those quotes came from publications like Slant Magazine,ReviewsOnTheRun, and Empire. Those peeps are really harsh with their scores.
Overall see this movie right now.
Iron Man 3 is rated PG-13.

Critics Consensus: Monaco:What's Yours Is Mine

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new indie title that has gotten much hype called Monaco.
I love indie games. They are better than what the gaming industry offers and gives a break from the COD's and Battlefield's that rule the industry. That''s why I was excited for Monaco a top down stealth game. Well that is new and interesting.
IncGamers praised the price point of the game and stated that they wished it was more because the developer's deserve more (you don't hear that every day) and Joystiq loved the clever design choices.
Overall you have to get this game.
Monaco is rated T.

Critics Consensus: Tai Chi Zero

Hi! We are Critics Consensus. We post the regular critics opinion for video games and movies! Today it is a new martial arts movie.

8 months ago a movie came out called Tai Chi Hero. Well eight months later there is a sequel and rushed sequels lead to bad scores. Like a 33 and a 36. That is twenty points lower than  the original you stupid movie makers.
Village Voice said that it was sluggish,Slant complained it felt half baked,and The New York Times stated that it is one of the most forgettable movies of the beginning of 2013. Well that's great.
Overall just don't. This has been a horrible week for movies.
