Hi all,

As you know I’m not an Xbox One fan, I’m strictly Sony!! However, there are those out there who are so, I wanted to ensure that all my readers get their favorite gaming system that best suits them, so I am covering that system here today

From what I’ve seen it has a few new features, probably the most important one it seems is it can run multiple apps at the same time, this means that you can chat to someone on Skype while watching TV, seems a bit rude to me. At the end of the day, I buy a gaming console, for one thing, to play games, believe it or not, if I want to watch TV I have a television set, still, what do I know.

Anyway, one of the new games announced was the new Call of Duty: Ghost, which also happens to be coming out on the PS3 as well, that surprised me, though Microsoft would have had it exclusively for their new baby. Well, that’s all your getting from me about the other guys, happy gaming.

If you want to learn more, you can get this still over on Amazon, click here to be taken there, or you can get there via the image below!!

Hi all,

Sorry for not posting in a while, but I do get carried away once I get to playing a game I’m really enjoying it. The latest on my list is Far Cry 3, I really didn’t expect to get hooked so easily on this game but it’s absolutely great. I’m loving it, there is tons of stuff to do and the storyline is pretty cool too.

I’ve also got Tomb Raider which is coming tomorrow or the next day, which should also be cool, and I also took advantage of the PSN offer of spending $50 and get $10 back, so I pre-ordered Bioshock Infinite which I will now be able to download one minute after midnight on the 26th of this month, how cool is that? Which, means it only actually cost me $49.99 instead of $59.99, awesome.

There are some pretty awesome games coming out this year, also there is Sniper 2 Ghost Warrior, I enjoyed the first one so this one should be pretty cool, then you have The Last of Us later this year, which is certainly going to be another game of the year game, just hope I can get that one the day it releases, we’ll have to wait and see.

I’m still in the process of trying to get a recording system setup, but I’m short of a couple of cables, once I have those in place I should be able to start doing the video walkthrough’s again, so looking forward to that.

Well, that’s about it for now, happy gaming.

Hi all,

To be honest there is only one decent game for release in June, and that is The Last of Us. It’s an Action/Adventure/RPG type game and from what i’ve seen of screenshots and trailers and even some gameplay it looks really good. If there are no more delays we should be able to get our hands on it on June 14th.

 

The Last of Us Game Descripion:

 

Twenty years after a horrifying plague, humans struggle to survive. The line between good and evil has been wiped away. What’s left of humanity makes whatever desperate choices they need to in a world where resources are scarce and danger is everywhere. Play as Joel, a grizzled scavenger hired to smuggle a 14-year-old girl out of a quarantined zone in this third-person action-survival saga from the makers of Uncharted. Ammo is scarce, so use your firepower wisely in play built on Dynamic Stealth – a strategic system that responds to and adapts outcomes based on your choices. Encounter infected humans, military patrols, and fellow survivors on a mission that will take you across the ravaged landscape of the United States.

You can tell it’s a naughty dog game, it has that play and feel about it, it reminds me a bit of the Uncharted games.  I’ve also read that there will be online play but I don’t know what that entails as yet, could be similar to the Uncharted games but i’ll update when I know more.  As of yet I don’t know if I will be able to get this one the day of its release but i’m hoping. Have to wait and see.

Another game that comes out June 4th is Remember Me which is another Action/Adventure game, I don’t know much about this one but here is the game overview:

 

Remember Me Game Description:

 

In the not-too-distant future, society has removed all notions of privacy. Memories are digitized, enhanced, and bought and sold on the open market. You happen to be a thief with a very valuable skill: breaking into people’s minds and stealing those memories. Imprisoned by those who fear your power and your own memory wiped clean, you’ll escape from prison and fight to recover your own past. Play as Nilin, the most wanted memory hunter in Neo-Paris. Infiltrate people’s minds, stealing and even altering their memories as you outrun and outsmart the authorities that are trying to hunt you down. Remix people’s memories in real-time in a mind-warping combo of explosive martial-arts combat and uncertain reality.

This definitely sounds like something new, i’ve not heard of a story quite like this and it does interest me somewhat, I want to see some trailers and gameplay before I decide but I would probably rent this one to see how it plays, could be interesting.

That’s all for now, will post more as I get more info, happy gaming.

Hi all,

After playing awesome RPG’s like Skyrim and Assassins Creed 3 it almost leaves a void. I’ve been looking around at new releases and games soon to be released and I find myself almost expecting too much from a game now. I think i’ve searched through 50 trailers today and I find myself finding fault with many of them, simply because i’ve been spoilt with the previously two mentioned games.

Having said that, I have managed to find at least three games to put on my list. One is Bioshock Infinite, even though I haven’t seen enough of this one yet, i’m convinced this one won’t let me down. Another one is Tomb Raider, and I don’t think this one will be one of those massive hits due to the fact that a couple of previous Tomb Raider games was a disappointment. I think that will change for those who give this new one a chance.

Another very good choice (I believe) is going to be The Last of Us. From what i’ve seen so far this one will be very open and extremely fun and interesting to play, I like games that keep my attention constantly and this one looks like one of those. Well that’s the three games i’ve put on my reserve list at Gamefly and i’m hoping to get at least one or two of them the day they are released.

Let me know of your choices this 2013 and why, I may just give them a look see. Happy gaming.

Hi all,

Well my first full day playing Uncharted:Drakes Fortune got me 60% of my trophies, completed the game on Hard Mode, which has now unlocked Crushing Mode for me. Today I’ve been playing Uncharted: Among thieves, part way through story mode, then I switched over to mulitplayer, going to give myself a couple of weeks to platinum these two before moving on to something else.

I don’t enjoy multiplayer on among thieves so much as Uncharted: Drakes Deception, I got to beta test that one and I thought it was pretty awesome so i’m looking forward to getting that after completion of these first two games.

Because of everyone in the house getting new ps3 systems for christmas we all got the same bundle so we each own a copy of Among Thieves so we can help each other get the online trophies when our friends are not playing. That’s about it for today so have fun out there and have a happy new year everyone:)

Hi all,

Christmas was busy on and offline so haven’t had the chance to post much here. That’s all going to change from now due to the fact that I got myself a new 250gig PS3, and not only that, my boys each got one too, so no more sharing my system, very nice:)

This means i’ll not only be getting more game time, but also that i’ll be able to start making the gaming videos again (yes I used to do that once). So since I now have a brand new system with almost 200gigs more than my previous system, I’ve decided to create a completely new online ID, yep, starting all over from scratch and dedicating this new system to playing strictly the best games, mostly RPG’s of course, with some action/adventure ones too.

On top of that I am looking for about 50 new friends, and it will be fairly hard to be accepted by me as i’m really going to be looking for players who spend a decent amount of time online playing but also, and more importantly, players who tend to play the same genre as me. So basically to be accepted by me as a friend, at least on this account, you need to really enjoy playing games like Skyrim, AC3, Dishonored, Uncharted etc..really what I call the top of the range RPG’s and Action/Adventure type games.

I will be going back into reviewing every game I play, and since I have acquired the Dazzle, thanks to christmas presents, I will now be putting videos up on my youtube site, this will be a few weeks from now as I have to purchase some extra cables and scarts and stuff. Also please don’t send me a friend request unless your willing to be in my videos as I will be recording a lot of my online multiplayer gametime.

Later in the new year i’ll also be setting up my gaming forum and i’ll review that at a later date and explain more about that. So for now I would like to wish everyone a happy new year and good luck gaming.

Hi all,

I decided to resign from the guild I was in today, there were several reasons behind this decision. I first want to say that it had nothing to do with the guild itself, the guild “In God We Trust” is an excellent guild, run by Kiya who is a great guildmaster, very helpful members too.

My decision was partly personal and partly selfish if i’m honest, one reason is that my friend Abu resigned (I do not know the reason why) and started a guild himself. He was probably the one who helped me the most, also he will also make a very good guildmaster as he always started a room in his home town offering help to other lower guild rank members.

Another reason for me leaving is because i’m getting a few new games that are just amazing, Assassins Creed 3, Dishonored, Borderlands 2 and Resident Evil 6. AC 3 and Dishonored are two games i’ve been waiting to play for a long time and I don’t think i’m going to get online with WKC 2 as much as I would like when I start playing these. This in turn means that if I don’t get online as much with WKC 2 I won’t get too far behind as i’m going to be with a new guild that will be starting at level 1.

This will also give me the opportunity to grow with a guild from the beginning to end, also hopefully getting some new members who have just started playing. I still would recommend my old guild, especially if your above guild rank 10 as they have a ton of experience and will always help out, especially on event nights.

I have left on good terms and hopefully will keep my friends i’ve made while in the guild and hopefully will be able to pop in and catch up and quest with a few from time to time.

Now I have to wait 3 days before I can join Abu and his new guild so I will try and finish up any bounties I have outstanding and try and get some S ranks on the lower ranked quests that I haven’t yet done. I’m looking forward to my new games as well as starting a fresh new chapter in the White Knight Chronicles 2

This game is really going to blow your mind, just like Skyrim did with never before seen graphics and animation, this one has gone even further.

The Ubisoft Anvil Next engine has taken the game to the next level. Everything in this latest installment is bigger and better than ever. More realistic than you could ever imagine a game to be.

The story is set around the 1770’s and the american revolution, you play as Connor, whose mother is American and English father and you are fighting to save your homeland.

This world is massive, going from cities, to woodland and battlefields to oceans. A huge game with an awesome storyline, many new weapons, including more guns. There are also tomahawks, rope darts, knives and more.

Even the weather system is magic and extremely realistic compared to many previous games. The battles are much more detailed and realistic and you can either fight face to face or use your stealth to take enemies out either by surprise or from a distance.

It’s actually quite impossible to describe a game like this to someone who hasn’t seen it, you just have to, at the very least, watch some gameplay or trailer to get where this is coming from. The minute you see the detail, combat, graphics, weather and massive environments your going to just want this game so bad.

On top of all this the new multi-player promises to be the best yet, with new characters, maps and modes to give us even more time enjoying what is an epic game.

To put it simple, every so often a ridiculously realistic game comes out that you want the minute you see it, it just draws you in like a really good movie. Well, this one is one of those, you would have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to want this game.

Assassins Creed 3 releases October 30th but you can pre-order now from Amazon:




Get this one, I will be.

Hi all,

Yes you read it right, a 500 Gig PS3 system. It will be available in either Black or White color. Apparently it is 25% smaller and a whopping 20% lighter than the current PS3 model.

Also the 250 Gig model will be out as a bundle in United States on 25th September for about $270 which will include Uncharted 3 and a $30 digital download voucher for Dust 514. However this probably won’t be your best bet as on 30th October United States can get their hands on the 500 Gig model bundled with Assassins Creed 3, no price has been given for that bundle as yet.

I don’t have a date yet for Europe release but it will be before U.S and they won’t be getting the 250 Gig, only the 500 Gig, which in my opinion is the one to go for anyway.

Eventually everything is going to get bigger so if there is a choice to have either 250 or 500gig you may as well go with the larger one.

There will be comments how this one looks less appealing than previous models, and maybe even cheaper looking but at the end of the day with that much space added, you won’t suddenly find yourself having to delete previous games to make room, at least not as much.

My concern is why make this now when the next gen has been announced and will probably hit the market in a year or so, either Sony is having some financial troubles (which i doubt) or there are going to be some insane games due out that takes up a ton of space, this is fairly likely due to the realistic games that are being made with constantly evolving engines giving extremely realistic graphics, story lines and extremely fast loading times.

Another point to mention is why come out with a 250 Gig version when we already have a 320 Gig version (as seen below) for less than $300.


Well, let me know your comments on this and I will try and get hold of the two screenshots that Sony released.

First I should apologize for my lack of posting here, this is mainly due to the fact i’ve been extremely busy offline as well as online. It’s also not much of an excuse when I have managed to find so much time to play so I am sorry for not being here as much as I should have the past couple of weeks.

I wanted to mention some of the games that I have been playing recently as there are a few. One game that took up a couple of weeks of my precious time was Socom 4: U.S.Navy Seals, again not really my type of game but for a war game it was pretty awesome, and I even platinumed it so was quite proud of myself. I will do an in depth review on this game later in the week.

Another game i’ve been recently playing is quite an old one but since it is on the PS3 I wanted to get some more trophies before all the good stuff comes out next month. This game was Tomb Raider Trilogy, 3 games for the price of one was great and I love the Tomb Raider stories.

I’m playing Tomb Raider Anniversary at the moment and just like all the other ones it’s pretty good, these games do not seem to get dated, at least for me.

I’ll be writing some reviews on all the games i’m playing in the coming weeks.

New releases coming soon that i’m really looking forward to are Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, out in November but in September there are some great games being released, like WKC 2, Rage and also Splinter Cell Trilogy which i’m looking forward to for the PS3.

Incidentally in case you were wondering the Tomb Raider Trilogy does have trophies for all 3 games on the PS 3 system.

Will post more often now i’m more in a routine so keep checking back and happy gaming.

Tony:)
