This December my gaming focus is squarely centered on the PS3 versions Skyrim and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations . I still have yet to give Arkham City a whirl, but it is on my short list to play. On the PC front I’m still playing Deux Ex: Human Revolution . What can I say? I’m a perfectionist, and it’s a great game. Racing games have never been my forte but Forza Motorsport 4 will be the next game I purchase as I try to broaden my horizons a bit. However, I’m still itching with anticipation for Mass Effect 3 , and wonder how many play-throughs of ME2 I can manage before I get my conditions “just right.” Stay safe during the holidays Rant
Office is a hostage rescue map that is considered great for many reasons. First of all, Office might be the most balanced map in CS: GO , meaning neither attackers nor defenders have an advantage. Eliminating the other team may prove to be difficult because of the map’s various hallways. Best played through competitive mode, Office provides many path options. Securing all hallways leading to hostages is critical for the defending team. Office is exceedingly popular and has been remade four times since the first Counter-Strike g
While Code Vein might seem to have the market cornered when it comes to anime-tinged Dark Souls knockoffs, that’s just not the case. People are going to keep making these things despite not really understanding why Dark Souls works so well. People are also going to keep putting cherubic anime girls in games because it prints mo
The sophisticated young women of Senran Kagura already have experiences with guns, too, having cut their teeth on the high-stakes water gun matches of Peach Beach Splash . Really, replace the water and bikinis with metal and tactical vests, and it’s basically the same th
It can be incredibly tempting in battle royale games for players to try and kill everyone that they see, and this is especially true in Danger Zone . However, one potential problem with doing this is that a player may stumble upon an enemy that has better equipment than they
Agency is a map that is set in a commercial penthouse at the top of a skyscraper building. Rescuing the hostages successfully is such a good feeling in Agency. Extraction takes place on the helipad where hostages are presumably airlifted away from the map. Of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive’s new maps, Agency stands out for being one of the b
But what she doesn’t know is that this monster is one of her own creation. Her latent masochism has given way to these dark delusions – twisted abominations that are physical manifestations of her own innate desire to be punished by somebody, anyb
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.
It’s worth mentioning that not every player is a fan of Nuke. In fact, a large number of people in the CS: GO community hate the map with a passion. Nuke doesn’t have a lot of surprises now that CS: GO’ s developers removed the storage room at B. Everything is laid out very neatly, and there should be few surprises when playing Nuke. If you aren’t good with a sniper, you may not be a good Nuke player. Assault rifles are effective, but sniper rifles can get you easy uncontested ki
Mirage was added to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on June 6, 2013. The design bears similarities to a Middle Eastern town, but the items and architecture make it more likely that the town is Moroccan. Planters spawn close to A site, but the defenders pawn even closer. You could choose to go to B, but chances are that you’ll encounter more trouble along the way. Mirage is a CT sided map, but the smart design that includes hidden tunnel passages makes Mirage a fun
As Danger Zone games take place on large maps with a lot of open space , it makes sense that an effective weapon in this environment would be a Scout. These weapons can be bought later on in the game for $3750, and as they are a one-hit kill to the head and molotov Grenade upgrade a two-shot kill to the body, it is highly advisable for players to purchase
“Contrary to what people may think, LambdaGeneration actually grew during Valve’s silence,” Alex explains. “Many of the news-oriented sites that once overshadowed us started to struggle – many just gave up. The community, however, did not.”
Some of the sites Alex is talking about were centered around maps, while others focused on larger overhauls. There were also a few that dug into leaks, rumors, and speculation, propping up the fans who were trying to sift through Valve’s silence to find answers.
