Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance streams

MGRR

You can go and see the Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance streams from last weekend. I uploaded all three streams there and now they are available. I made them 15 min long each so you can jump forward easier if you want to. Have to say that by making them 15 min long each has its good and bad sides. It would be nicer to have only 3 videos, but they would be almost too long to watch (some are over 5 hours each). Other hand by making them 15 min long I have now almost over 100 videos already.

I am planing to stream this friday the last part of the game. THE END BOSS!! There is a preview of the boss fight in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance HELP! part 3.

I will be announcing the more accurate time later for the part 4 stream of the game. I think it will be around 19 CET or 20 CET.

Wolfenstein: The New Order in the courthouse

wolf

Once there was  Mr William Blazkowicz how thought he was fighting in 1941 against Nazi-Germany. But things happened and he wakes up next time some where in the 1960’s. This is the time set where all the story takes place. Of course if you have played the previous Wolfestain you would be more in the story line.

Story is well written as is not in the main part of this game. Ok, I admit the story line is written better even as in some other AAA-group games. As this is a FPS you can expect that this game is pure shooting and war. Still the story line keeps things interesting and it’s nice to have real story where you can know what’s happening and why we are here.

Combat in this game is hard and you can’t always expect what the enemy does. When the AI is so smart that it can give you a little bit of resistant, it’s good. More games with this type of AI and we boys and girls have a much better gaming experiences in our hands. The fact that you can use lots of guns from the beginning, separates this game from typical FPS game, where you have to find always the next gun. That type of “item discovering” is getting old.

Combat with dual assault rifle is pretty neat. You could almost say “Meat is back in the menu, boys”. The dual use of guns is made well. As you can use in one hand a basic and in other a grenade launcher equipped version. There is also a plasma cutter, but that is not a technically a weapon.

Game looks so pretty, but of course as this was played with “PC-master race”. Also this game is over 40 GB, which could also explain it. Wolfenstein new order was one of my top games this year. As it was funny and it gave me as a hard core gamer, so much legendary memories from the past, when I played the first one 2D Wolfenstain. I was expecting still a Hitler robot as a end boss. You how have played the original will know that I mean.

Sniper Elite V2

sniperelitev2_856x337.jpg.856x337_q85

So as the name tells you the game is all about sniping. You play as solo gun man, who is trying to prevent russians and nazis to lauch V2 rockets against London. You must succeed or London will be doomed. While doing this, try to not lose your temper as the AI will give you few gray hairs. Some times enemy will spawn behind you.

Game looks pretty good, not like Metro Last or other high-end games, but still that it won’t bother you. While levels aren’t so much different from others, the details are still well made. City’s look like they have been bombed as you can see brigs laying on ground and houses on fire. All the enemy look alike, as they have two or three different models. Music is time to time good and sets the mood well, but mostly you don’t even realise the music is playing as the music will start to repeat literally itself.

Weapons are different form one another. You can choose from three different sniper rifle, pistol and grenade. Rifles are different and they all have their good and bad sides. If I can and I will, recommend that you use the german sniper rifle as it is most suitable to this game. You will get good scope and clip size, but it isn’t so powerful as others. That doesn’t matter as you will start to shoot headshots mostly when you will learn the way that you have aim.

Happy hunting…

Sanctum 2 review

sanctum2_logo

As they released the the Sanctum 2 I wasn’t so excited as I should have been. The basic game is still the same, build towers and kill enemys before they get to your core. From there the similarity end as you can’t any more upgrade your hand weapons. There are more towers and hand weapons what you can use.

highres_screenshot_00001_2_SAnc

In Sanctum 2 you got more variation in enemys that you face. This make the game more harder as you got very fast and weak enemys that come in packs. Other hand you got very slow, but hard to kill enemys. Some of those also can destroy your towers. This makes the game different from Sanctum.

highres_screenshot_00025_sanc

Hand weapons are more useful  than in original game. You can make a lot of damage to enemys that move in packs. Also you get new weapons when you level up, which makes you to want to return to old levels and see how you can win them now.  You also get mines, but those aren’t the solution which you should relay on, in my mind.

ss_18b928231ce4b8b50c8e6f1bd11e9ef7cbd88164.1920x1080 ss_41673936cf0df5cdf2b4c0549e118829730d8e88.1920x1080

Towers are basically the same than in Sanctum, but you got some new designed towers that make the game bit different. Example the mortal towers are very slow, but they can kill enemys with one shot. Also you don’t have anymore the teleport tower, which is shame as I liked it a lot in Sanctum.

Score of 8.25/10, would have been 8.5 if some of those DLC maps would have been in the game.

State of Decay review

state

I was expecting Walking Dead meets Skyrim type open world game. I was positively surprised what kind of open world this game was. It gives freedom to player to advance the as fast he wants and all most the whole world is open from the start.

stat2

Game starts when you are with your friend and you to desire to run away from the living dead. Game steer player loosely to the right path, but gives you chance to explore the world almost freely. Still if you want to look around and find all items you can do it, but game will remind you to go forward. Luckily you are able to return to the old areas without any trouble.state2

Cars are really important in this game. Without them you wouldn’t survive long. Of course you can run, but in the long run you will use car more for the killing of zombies than to transport.

7811580402B2F3F1E1E6D8DF2230D6CA82D37A31

You can have lots of weapons in this game. You can collect weapons while you scavenge resources. That’s why its important to have good weapons only in you inventory. I found out that firearms are helpful if you stick to long-range combat, but not in the close combat fights. I prefer bat or shovel. As they are good in sticky situation.

state-of-decay-breakdown

There’s real meaning of your actions in this game too. If you die its permanent and you will lose that character. That’s why it isn’t game for those how don’t like to take a second and think what they are doing. If you just rush to the hordes, you will die. You must be smart and make them come to you so that you can kill them more easily. Zombies as  lone area easy targets for you, but in hordes they will rip you a part. That’s why  if you make one wrong move, and you will be gone for good.

Score of 8.65/10, It could have been 9, but I felt that there was more potential that they could have used.

Far Cry 3 Review

Image

You and your friends are in the paradise island when you all are kidnaped. You must get away from them and save your friends. This is how your game starts. What will you do…..

ImageStory in Far Cry 3 is interesting for the first gameplay trough. There is strong main story which takes you all around the islands. Mostly the  islands look the same. The thing that bothers me in the story is that it doesn’t take the potential that it has to make side-missions more important. There is almost no real side missions if you start to think more closely.

Image

The game world is big, certainly, as big aas Skyrim. You can shoot up enemy outposts and take them over, If you take outpost from enemy, you will turn them into safe zones where you can load up on ammo and other supplies. Camps also serve as quick-travel points. There is good way as sniper to kill enemy inside the camp. By shooting from far away, enemy will start looking for you which makes you job easier. But you should be aware of an outpost’s alarm. If an enemy triggers it, reinforcements  will arrive in a matter of seconds.

Image

Far Cry 3 has  a variety of guns  that you can shoot, and each one of them feels properly hefty and powerful. Vehicles are fun to drive and they feel realistic. Dying and spawning at a checkpoint to find all the enemies you killed still alive, yet all the ammo you used to shoot them depleted, is frustrating. That’s one of the games biggest flows. Other flow is that you don’t need other gun that assault rifle to complete the game. That’s a shame, you have tons of guns that you could use in  lots of missions, but all what you need is AK. Few missions where you must use sniper rifle and mines would make this game lot funnier.

Image

Image

There is few missions that are more entertaining than others. Example there is mission where you must use flamethrower ( or molotov) to complete the mission. Also I recommend that you would play those “challenges” that developer has put around the game world.

Are you ready to take the plunge?

Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition

2557313-dark-souls

Those who haven’t seen this game yet, I would recommend to watch Jeff Greens Stream at http://www.twitch.tv/greenspeak/b/499039424

This game is hard time to time, let’s get that thing clear first. Seems this game is “hot” at the moment in the gaming community. This game doesn’t look pretty nice with out the DX-fix, which enhances the graphics of this game.

Game starts when you are in prison, this is your first area where you can feel the Dark Souls atmosphere.  You can feel the fear and happiness already in the first few hours of gameplay.

sif

Souls are money in this game. You can get souls by killing, finding or selling items. 99% of your souls you will get from enemys. Harder enemys will give you more souls and less harder less souls.

anorlondo

Fighting in  Dark Souls is physical or intelligence based. Game feels different if you use only or mostly intelligence (magic) or physical attacks. Different enemys are weak to different things. Example Crystal trolls are weak to lightning and flesh based monsters are weak to fire. Also strong enemys can kill you with only one hit, regardless of the level of your shield.

dark-souls_09_0

All you armor  you wear and weapons you have equipped, will  effect your endurance. Endurance is on of the key things that you have to keep in mind while playing. Every attack you make, every step you take and every block you make will consume your endurance. Heavier the weapon, more endurance will be consumed while attacking. That’s same thing about  blocking hits.

211420_screenshots_2013-12-29_00005

One fun thing is that people can invade your game and you can summon other players to help you against bosses. While someone can invade your game, it is not main part in this game. Most of players that invade your game are NPC. Human players that invade your game, are mostly new game + gamers. But if you can kill them, you usually get lots of souls off them.

dark-souls-painted-world-of-ariamis

There are tons and tons of different weapons and armor what you can wear and use. Armor and weapons can be upgraded to higher levels.  Rings are valuable for you, because they give you perks that will help you to proceed further.

Score of 8,8/10

Legend of Grimrock

Legend of GrimrockEye_of_the_Beholder_I_PC_box

Legend of Grimrock is made in the spirit of old school gaming and that shows. This game has taken its from the 90’s games like Eye of the Beholder. Gaming is totally different what most of the gamers have used to from todays games. This game makes or should it be said expects you to think before you act. This can be hard game for those who hasn’t played these kind of games before, but I want to say that you will lear the basic ideas pretty fast.

LoG2&3 207170_screenshots_2014-01-18_00003

You’re a group of four prisoners,who are at the top of Mount Grimrock, but you’re thrown down a hole at the top of the mountain. Your mission is to get to the bottom of the mountain and escape. While you are doing that, you will have to fight and solve countless puzzles. Puzzles are tough but if it’s easy where is the fun, I just ask… For those who hate spawning monsters, hear this. In Grimrock all the enemys you kill will be killed rest of the game. So you can go back on previous levels and search hidden treasures.

LoG4

Enemys in this game are from both side of the scale. There is hard ones and there is easy ones. There are some tactics that will help you to fight against harder ones. Also what kind of group you make will decide what kind of game you will have. If you go all muscle but no brain you will get powerful mace/axe/sword group, but no magic. I highly recommend that you would mix the group so that you have brain and muscle in it.

LoG5Enemys ss_4b52b44d7a78bd3fab2fe4331a917b6568c0577c.1920x1080

I don’t want to spoil too much but this game will get you like this kind of games. Music in this game makes you feel that you are really in some mysterious dungeon inside of mountain. I put main theme music link here, so if interested go and listen. I think the main theme is one of the best I have ever heard.

Rayman Legends review

Image

The evil magician has splitten to 5 evil magicians. (Backs to the Rayman Origins). Evil magicians have kidnapped all the teenies and princesses of the Dream world. Your mission is to rescue all teenies and princesses from the evil magicians.

ImageImage

Rayman Legends is made with same art style as Rayman Origins. They have put more to the in-game music which shows also. Music is very well thought in each level. Combined with good-looking in-game art and music you create game which appeals to the younger gamers but also to the older gamer generation. This is good thing when you think that the first Rayman game came to the market in 1995. In that light the game hasn’t lost any its appeal on this years.

Image

Gameplay is still like it was in Origins, but now you have to control time to time Murfy- The flying leprechaun. This can frustrate players if they are playing solo this game. I think this game is made for 2-4 gamers, as you can use your characters to get all the lumps and revive all ready dead friends. Also by playing with friends you are able to find and rescue Teensies easier than by playing solo.

Image

Game is bit harder on that aspect that you won’t be able to find and rescue all those hidden Teensies. Also some parts of this game are so fun that you just want to play those levels again and  again. With lumps you can “free” new playable characters like Barbara, Globox, Rayman and Teenies.

Image

Rayman Legends has over 120 levels that you can play. In those over 120 levels, there are 40 remastered levels from the previous Rayman game.(Rayman Origins). You can access those levels by scratching tickets which players can obtain by completing levels with a high enough points. From the tickets players can also win additional Lums and Teensies. Some levels feature remixed ‘Invaded’ versions, which must be completed as quickly as possible. Rayman Legends  has daily and weekly challenges, in which players can compete with other players via leaderboard in challenges. Best mini game in Rayman Legends is soccer game, Kung Foot, which I found out to be pretty fun when you play it with your friends 2v2.
