Introduction:
I love games with spaceships in them, and have played almost every game for the PC with a spaceship in it since the mid 1980’s. Why am I bringing this up? Because the game I’m reviewing in, Star Wolves 3: Civil War, is just littered with spaceships. Does that make me more biased, or maybe more critical? It’s hard to say, but as someone who really enjoyed the previous two Star Wolves installments, I was pretty thrilled to take a crack at this new one. Let’s dive in and take a look, shall we?
Game Overview:
Star Wolves 3 is a…space-based science-fiction action/strategy/RPG hybrid of a game. *catches breath* What does that mean, exactly? This game mixes a few different elements into one pretty cohesive whole. At the core of the game is your control over your spacehips. You usually have an armed mothership and several fighters under your command. These fighters need pilots, which is where the RPG element comes in, as your pilots gain experience through combat, and these experience points can be used to increase their skills in specific areas, such as piloting, stealth, missile combat, etc.
The game takes place in a fairly expansive universe with over one hundred star systems. You begin the game as a lowly tug pilot, ferrying cargo back and forth between stations, until the story literally blows up in your face. From there, it’s a tale of intrigue as you make new friends, new enemies, acquire new ships and so on.
The gameplay itself is controlled by a fairly streamlined interface that hasn’t been changed much since the previous installment, which isn’t a bad thing since it worked well before. The game flows in real time, but you can pause at any time to give your ships orders, which is very handy in comba...

Overall though, these are relatively minor problems that could be corrected with a patch or two. It is odd to see that many of these complaints were present in the previous games, which makes them a tad less forgivable, but again, these issues are minor enough not to usually get in the way of the gameplay.
In Conclusion:
Whole Star Wolves 3 has a few problems, its positives definitely and thankfully outweigh its negatives. I had a great time playing through this game, and will continue to do so once this review has been posted, as I’m dying to see what happens next to these characters and the universe they inhabit. I can easily recommend this game to anyone who likes space combat games, role playing games, or tactical combat games, as this game successfully melds elements of all three into one fun and cohesive whole.

It would be near insanity to say Letters from Iwo Jima constitutes an everyday war movie. Clint Eastwood not only created a film that sympathizes with the Japanese, but also acknowledges the fact that both the Japanese and Americans were wrong. The Japanese assumed Americans were cowardly fools and the Americans had been taught the Japanese were mindless imperial machines. These stereotypes are quickly cast aside as viewers of this movie acquaint themselves with Saigo and his friends. However, although this movie effectively accomplishes its goals, it still contains many inaccuracies. These errors eventually culminate to the point that the movie may seem sensationalized or even overly dramatized at points. More importantly, the cultural, geographical, and propagandized inaccuracies make it difficult to believe what Letters from Iwo Jima is trying to say; the Japanese fought even more bravely than the Americans despite what public opinion was.
After struggling for five years to recover his niece, who is now a young woman, she is rescued by his own hands. Likewise, Dances with Wolves is a Western film directed and starring Kevin Costner. It is also situated during the American Civil War and tells the story of a soldier named John Dunbar that after a suicide attempt he involuntarily leads Union troops to a triumph. Then, by his request, he is sent to a remote outpost in the Indian frontier “before it’s gone”. There, the contact with the natives is eminent and thus it shows how through those contacts this soldier is transformed into another Indian that belongs to the Sioux tribe and who is now called Dances With Wolves.
In Morrowind, our character’s role in the game, and thus, the narrative paths that s/he can take, is shaped by us, his/her interactions with others in the virtual world of Morrowind, and their expectations of him/her based on the role s/he inhabits. To properly create or critique simulations like Morrowind, we must first understand the relationship between player and character, and decide the extent to which the player or the characters in the virtual world should prescribe a character’s role.
...fe was presented through untrue accusations of animal genocides and of people perishing at the wolves’ teeth. Wolves are vicious when threatened, as most living creatures are through natural instinct, but this doesn’t give the right to blame the wolves for situations that weren’t legitimately caused by them. In the end, the wolves are the ones who end up suffering, as they are killed for rewards and the humans don’t want to take responsibilities for their own infamous actions. It truly is unfair, as by the time the wolf is rightly understood, the greater portion of the wolf population collectively just may possibly be extinct.

... and gets over them quickly. One of the most lovable messages in the novel is the friendship between Torak and Wolf. When they first meet Wolf seems to annoy Torak because he wants to play all of the time. Eventually Torak gives in to Wolf’s pestering and the two form an unbreakable bond. The brother-like pair communicates so swiftly that they can hunt and track together with outstanding ease. Without the friendship of Wolf and Torak the demon bear would probably not have been defeated. Overall, this friendship helps to spread the message of perseverance in the novel because Torak and Wolf don’t have to face the bear and other challenges on their own. Wolf Brother is a must-read book because of its heart-warming friendships and thrilling action scenes. The enjoyable characters and enticing plot line keep readers on the edge of their seat throughout the whole book.
The movie Dances with Wolves was a real good movie and I enjoyed watching it. It showed how life was back in the time of the Civil War. The movie also showed how Indians lived and how they respect everything except the white men.
I believe that Dances With Wolves did an excellent job of undoing the stereotypes that have been given to the Indians. Through this movie we realize that they did what they had to do in order to survive and provide for their family. They did what any other person would have done if they were put into the same situations. This movie did help us to understand, accept, and sympathize with the Indians. I hope that we as a people truly learn to observe a culture or a race before they actually start to criticize or stamp stereotypes on them.

My first introduction to the game came at my father’s knee. Dad was a computer gamer since before PCs even existed, having even written a few of his own. I was only six or seven at the time and I would watch as he and my brother, three years my elder, spent a lot of time in front of the computer staring at this pretty blue and green map with blinking pictures that did things which were largely incomprehensible to me. Naturally, I was rather jealous of the attention my brother was getting and I quickly decided I was going to play, too. No matter that I had no idea what I was doing. Over the years, with my father’s help, I eventually came to understand the game and I haven’t looked back since. In the years since then, though I’ve on occasion tried some of the sequels, I’ve always come back to CIV I. It seems like an awfully outdated, charming little DOS game nowadays, but it has an addictive quality that allows one to play it over and over and never have the same experience twice.
