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!

Sorry for the long break everybody!

There have just been so many great games recently that none of us have been able to update with anything.

Bioshock 2
Heavy Rain
Final Fantaasy XIII

am I forgetting any?

Expect some more content in the next few days - See you all soon

The Saboteur Review

Written by Tony A.K.A Biggerandbetta


This is my Review on The Saboteur, the last game by pandemic Studios
just to say... What A way to end! :P

i'm gonna do things different this time and put this review into 4 parts
story
graphics
sound
gameplay

Right to Start off with is Story

you play as sean devlin a man from ireland and from a series of events hes now living in paris, this is set during world war 2 so expect to see nazi walking around.anyway once you get into the game your see something that changes sean's life. he is then apporched by the leader of the french resistance who ask's for sean's help to liberate france. not to spoil it but theres some awsome missions and an epic story line that never seemed to bore me

Next is Graphics

From when i started to play this game i didn't have a HD t.v but for christmas i got 1 and from what i played of it after i got it i can say the graphics are decent enough you can see things clearly enough, from the way they set this game in paris you get to really see what paris was like in world war 2. you have all the monuments that are in good detail & and the people in the game Graphics are solid too

SOUND

In the Saboteur the sound is awsome expecialy with the old cars they all sound authentic,the gun shooting on the other hand is a different story i think they got a bit lazy on that end. but who am i to judge, also theres some classic music to listen to while driveing around and the sound of those songs are good it makes you think your in world war 2 paris. very realisic

Gameplay

This game has your basic GTA style
complete a mission to progress, drive here, run there, but theres a change that makes you detect a hint of assassin's creed because you can climb building's, the only thing that i found tricky to get the hang of at first is the shooting controls you have no auto aim so your always pin pointing your enemies wereabouts which isn't a problem once you get the hang of it

Anyway to end this Review i would rate this game a SOLID 9/10
only on the fact that it's not long enough and i hope there will be a 2nd game
if you haven't got this yet your missing out... by far one of the best game of 2009
