This month I’m looking forward to Mario Kart 7 . It’s just one of those games that you can pickup and play whenever you want, and I plan on playing it throughout December and well into the new year. Since some folks are talking about what they’re excited for next year, I’d have to say Halo 4 and Bioshock: Infinite are on the top of my l
With a much-needed break coming this month, My plan is to first and foremost put some serious time into Skyrim . As an RPG fan, that’s the game at the top of my list, but only slightly ahead of Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3 , finishing Gears of War 3 and Halo Anniversary . Of course, i’ll have to get those out of the way before Star Wars: The Old Republic . I’ve never been a big MMO player, but this one might just do it. If nothing else, this dose of BioWare storytelling will tide me over until Mass Effect
Alex’s point is an important one. I occasionally jump to Reddit to find out what’s going on with the community, perhaps to discuss some wild theories about the G-Man after a long day of bunny-hopping through the waterways of Half-Life 2, but the subs are drowned in memes. So, I go to Twitter, where it’s near-impossible to find any structured form of discussion. The only spot to find community content in a neat package was LambdaGeneration, but even then it was curated by fans – what was being lost in that process? LambdaGeneration’s new social media platform addresses all of these issues.
Before I tear into 2012 titles like Alan Wake: Night Springs , Mass Effect 3 , BioShock: Infinite , SSX , and Borderlands 2 , Counterstrike2guide.Com it’s time for me to play catch-up after a busy November of reviews. I managed to resist the pull of both Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 , though it will be a holiday miracle if I don’t end up caving this month and enlisting in one or the other military campaign. However, more importantly, I’m about to return to the hallowed halls of the assassins for Assassins’ Creed: Revelations . Desmond’s fourth trip into the Animus was one of my most anticipated titles of 2011 and I’m fully committed to becoming a master assassin – as well as collecting all the miscellaneous garbage Ubisoft has scattered around Constantinople. I’ve also got to clean-up some collectibles as well as pawn n00bs in a few of October/November’s biggest titles, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception and Gears of War 3 . That, and I’m going to dance my heart out in Dance Central 2 – and if high scores and smooth dance moves aren’t enough motivation, I’ve got a bet to
The greatest thing about the game was there are no shops and no need for a grind. To find weapons, you would have to look for chests or get them after a battle. Instead of an EXP system, your stats increase after major boss fights. And we all know the grind in RPGs. It’s the most boring thing you can do in a g
I’ll definitely be playing Minecraft now that it has officially released, Rob and I will probably do a few more recording sessions with the game. I’ll also be attempting to play through Gears of War 3 on ‘Insane’ difficulty in order to get those exclusive ‘Impossible Mission’ sk
December means three things for me: KOTOR , KOTOR 2 and The Old Republic, plus a possible co-op playthrough of Resistance 3 . I’m also hoping to catch up on some games I’ve missed such as Shadows of the Damned and Yakuza 4 , and this before I get to all of the games I bought off of Steam’s Fall S
With a franchise already intrinsically connected to girls murdering swarms of their peers, the leap between “cutting high schoolers down in the streets” and “dying ten times to get one hit in on something” is a pretty small one. Bonus points if From Software comes on board and imbues the game with the immersive, organic physics their games are known
Sometimes saying less is better in a match of Rainbow Six: Siege . Snakes like to work alone, which can get in the way of being an effective Rainbow Six: Siege player. Regardless, they work smartly to achieve goals and seldom f
I would love to see a refresh or a next installment of Counter-Strike . I played a metric ton of the game in it’s heyday, and the fact that it still thrives online via Steam should be a tell-tale hint that a sequel would be nothing short of a rock-solid i
The game is full of both stealth-based and puzzle quests. The cut scenes were as good as any traditional RPG’s. Plus, the game is full of ANIMALS, like the tough half-man half-pig, Pey’j. His battle cry was ‘Jambalaya!’ How can you not love
People who belong to the Chinese zodiac rabbit are gentle and elegant like their animals. Apex Legends is a game that requires quick reflexes and a range of skills. Despite being someone who would be well-fitted to play Apex Legends , you can be stubborn, which can hinder your gameplay. Don’t let the overwhelming odds of a 60-person match get you down. As a rabbit, you have the persistence needed to succ
There is at least one reason why Train has appeared in Counter-Strike, Counter-Strike: Source , and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . It happens to be a delightful map that is relatively balanced for both teams. Sprinting into A site like the game is Call of Duty is just about the worst thing you can do. Plenty of players think Call of Duty and CS: GO are similar. Attackers are advised to stick together, communicate with team members, and choose a bomb site. Both bomb sites on Train can be reached easily, so you may as well have your squad with you when plant
