Red Dead Redemption - Pre Order incentives

Well who isn't giving out theses anymore? we had a baseball bat in L4D2 and then... well I'll tel lyou when I remember some more but it seems Red Dead Redemption has also jumped on the band wagon! check out a few of the videos and decide which ones you want for yourself

The Deadly Assassin Outfit

The Deadly Assassin Outfit causes your Dead Eye meter to regenerate at twice the speed. With more Dead Eye, you have more time to place each shot with total accuracy, making you the deadliest gunslinger in any fight. Watch the video above to see the Deadly Assassin in action and visit www.gamestop.com/reddead or read on below to get more info on the outfit and its special gameplay advantages.

THE GOLDEN GUNS WEAPON PACK
The player who wields the exclusive Golden Guns receives more Fame for each kill. The more Fame you get, the more in-game side missions become available. So there will be more opportunities to duel, more kidnapped townsfolk to rescue and you can bribe lawmen for less. The Golden Guns Weapon Pack is exclusive to Amazon pre-orders in bothNorth America and the U.K., and Amazon.com customers will also receive a $10 Amazon.com Gift Card.

THE WAR HORSE
There are countless horses to be found in the massive world of Red Dead Redemption, but none is stronger, faster or tougher than the exclusive War Horse. Whether storming gang hideouts, exploring the wilderness for hidden treasure, or outrunning the law, the War Horse gives gunslingers an advantage in nearly every situation. The War Horse is exclusive to Best Buy pre-orders in North America and HMV pre-orders in the U.K.

Now I don'y know about you but I seem to want all of these... Guess I'll just be buying the special edition with ALL of them then ;)

Gears of War 3 - EARLY 2011 release

So we all knew it was on its way, but with no information how long until it got to us? I won't lie I have never been the biggest fan of the series but I know alot of people are so without further ado

Gears 3 could be finished as early as this year! but don't expect it until next.

Microsoft doesn't want it to clash with Halo: Reach or Natal, go figure!

so does that mean that 2011 is going to be THE year for gaming? (just like every year for the last forever has supposed to?)

Mass Effect 2 DLC on the horizon

Well it was recently announced that we were going to have some new Mass Effect 2 DLC to get us all back aboard the Normandy (Maybe now I'll finish those achievements!)

Straight from the official site itself!

The galaxy's most enigmatic thief Kasumi has enemies everywhere, but only a few could put a face to her name. Not much is known about her, other than Cerberus has contracted her to assist Commander Shepard in the mission to save mankind. In exchange, she requires help with a dangerous heist to infiltrate the vault of a deadly criminal known as Donovan Hook.

Kasumi is master of stealth and eluding her enemies, her unique skills and technical expertise will be a valuable assets to Cerberus and Commander Shepard.

Stay Tuned everybody!

Camping for Killstreaks - The death of Warfare

WARNING! excessive truth ahead

So unless you have been living under a rock for the past forever you will probably played a match or two of Modern Warfare 2.


Sure its the biggest and best game ever released (or so I have been told) I still feel there is a lot wrong with it.

From the second this game was released I would guess that over 90% of the FPS market shifted from COD4 and WaW (try playing them now, there are never more than a few hundred people per playlist) This creates quite a problem for us gamers.



I'm sure that most of you will agree that you have played atleast one match and at some point said 'THAT'S BULLSH*T" at something that has happened to you, you got knifed by the guy you were shooting, you were clearly around the corner when you died and that grenade DEFINITELY followed you... don't get me started on predator missiles (they always aim for me you know)




The hardcore players will easily shrug off these problems - Its just the way the games made - Probably some lag, ah never mind. but to me and you I hope - that just can't be true.

When you look at it, its customizable kill streaks and the option to stack them. every game you get the kid who sits by the bomb with his ACR constantly aimed down sights or the guy in the corner of the room with the silenced UMP.

YES I understand that you don't want to die when you are 1 kill off of your Chopper Gunner but MAN doesn't having to traipse back to kill the same person over and over get a bit boring? that's what this post is getting at - Have any of you tried going back to WaW or 4? the games are just so much more fast paced, you get more kills and more deaths and the game is over before you know it - you don't get people camping because they know once they pass 7 kills that chopper or those dogs are the last thing coming!


now im not saying the way to fix this is to just run and gun in MW2, that would just get you killed by all of the campers! haha just try to have a bit more fun, its a game - not the end of the world

/Rant

Have fun everybody!

Back from the dead!
