The Guildmasters

Hi all,

Yes, I loved this game, the story mode was great, the graphics pretty good and it was a fair challenge getting all the trophies, great game, really enjoyed it. I also started playing Bioshock Infinite which is going to be much harder to get the platinum, good game though, disappointed as I’ve said before about no multi-player but the story is pretty good, plenty of stuff to do that keeps it interesting, it’s definitely got the Bioshock feel about it, another great game so far.

I have completed the story once (on easy) and now I’m on my second playthrough. I did make a video of my first 10 minutes and was going to do more but by the time I uploaded my first 10-minute video there were 100 other videos online of the whole game 🙁 The good part was that the video was a test run really to see how well it comes out and I was impressed, I’m looking forward to making more videos, just need to find a different angle so I don’t duplicate the 100’s of other players out there making videos.

All in all, it’s been a good week, looking forward to playing some more soon, happy gaming.

Hi all,

Yes, I’ve been playing the new Sniper game, looks like I may just platinum this one, two very hard trophies (at least for me anyway) are one online where you have to melee kill someone, use a sidearm to kill someone and snipe someone all in the same game, got all other online trophies. The other trophy I got to get is playing the story on expert which I’m doing now and have completed the first act, there are three all together so am hopeful about getting the platinum for this one.

Only two days left until I get my Bioshock Infinite download and I’m really looking forward to that, shame there is no multiplayer as I enjoyed the multiplayer on Bioshock 2, oh well, hope the story mode makes up for the loss of online play.

I did get my recording setup working, but it’s a long process at the moment, the quality of the video isn’t great but, it’s pretty good, definitely good enough to do some walkthroughs, chapters, etc… I’m actually looking forward to making some decent videos for YouTube of my gameplay, I haven’t been put off yet, even though my first video took 3hrs to put together 3 minutes of video, lol. I guess it’s a learning process before I get it right.

All eyes ready for 7th May for The Last of Us, that’s the next major game I really want to own, would love to do the video walkthrough for that one, looks amazing. Well, that’s all from me today, happy gaming.

Not my usual review of a game but this is a completely different experience. Sure, I don’t usually like shooters, unless it’s got something unique and this game is pretty unique.

If you ever wanted to play as a sniper this is your chance. There is no running in with guns blazing, it’s a purely sniper type game, and it’s pretty realistic too. I love it.

You have several different types of sniper rifle, a pistol, and a knife. You can throw the knife if your close enough for a silent kill.

The story line is good and it makes sense, your basically after a target, a high profile target. After your first failed attempt you have to complete several Acts trying to locate him and get the job done properly this time.

Easy mode is a good mode to start with so you can get used to being stealthy, crawling through the grass, hiding, scanning the area and working out the best time to take the shot.

Hard mode is exactly what it says on the can, it’s really hard, you can get killed with one shot and you really do have to be well hidden, and extra stealthy. This game is for patient players who don’t mind sneaking around and taking skillfully planned shots, one at a time.

Multiplayer online is very good, plenty of maps, a good selection of game types including team deathmatch, capture the flag, and deathmatch.

If your going for platinum in this game believe me when I say it’s going to take some time, kill 250 players with the pistol and 2,000 players with the sniper rifle so expect a long game if your going for platinum.

I hate war games and shoot em ups but like I said previously, this one is totally different, a true game for snipers, and I don’t mean lots of gunning and running, there is none of that, it’s totally sniping which makes for a refreshing change.
