The Aliens Are Hunting Heads !

 

Here's an action game presented by Hasbro Interactive that is a little off-the-wall. Humans are kidnapped by aliens that are after heads...er, Hedz. You begin by choosing one character - an alien - and five heads. It's a game full of humor and levels that are more difficult than you would think.

Hedz offers several choices during the gameplay. You can change heads at any time for different abilities as head has different capabilities such as double guns, a homing missile, a freezing cone, etc. However, this game is not one of the better ones as far as 3D Graphic environments are concerned and the setting definitions seem to be put together in a rather slaphappy manner and it doesn't seem up to the graphics quality usual in new games of this type.

Nevertheless, Hedz can be played in several languages other than english, such as French, which will please many gamers. However, after playing the game a few times, you come to realize that the game is very simple and sloppy. Also, even if the storyline is original, it doesn't help to keep the actual mission from being monotonous. A gamer who has tried games such as Glover or Rayamn will be very disappointed of this game's very poor performance.

Hasbro does have a good game here despite some of its disappointments. Younger gamers will like this one, I'm sure, for the concept of the storyline and fans of action games will love the humorous style of hedz. Overall, Hedz is a good game that would probably be even more popular if there is a second version in the future !
