Plainly stated, the M249 isn’t the best LMG in the game. Compared to the Negev, it really doesn’t hold up despite its monstrous stopping power. It also has a smaller magazine size, which really doesn’t help its case any. The last, and likely most damaging consideration is its incredibly high price tag, generally making it an unwise buy unless the player truly has funds to sp
Considered one of the best shooter franchises of all time (and being banned in some countries historically), Counter-Strike ‘s latest iteration, Global Offensive , is still every bit as important and influential as it ever was. Its iconic lineup of weaponry has shifted a bit over the years, but in general, there have always been guns that are considered must-haves for competitive play, while others have been dismissed as a total waste of time (and valuable in-game funds). Today, we’ll go over some of e
When you know that your opponents are not going to buy anything or you’re playing on a close-range map , the MP9 is the gun to choose. It is Affordable CS2 weapon skins, allows for high mobility, and shreds players foolish enough to engage in close-quarters combat with it. The best gun for making money after winning the pistol round, the MP9 (or Mac-10 if you’re on the Ts) has secured many players an ace and a wad of cash to spend for their t
Unsurprisingly, when Surf Maps steadily became popular in CS:GO , other older Surf fans compared some prominent elements from the Source variation and the CS:GO variation. In terms of overall differences, it seems Surfing in Source is much smoother given more customizable options. In terms of specif
With a much-needed break coming this month, My plan is to first and foremost put some serious time into Skyrim . As an RPG fan, that’s the game at the top of my list, but only slightly ahead of Uncharted 3, Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3 , finishing Gears of War 3 and Halo Anniversary . Of course, i’ll have to get those out of the way before Star Wars: The Old Republic . I’ve never been a big MMO player, but this one might just do it. If nothing else, this dose of BioWare storytelling will tide me over until Mass Effect
While the qualifying stage is difficult, it gives smaller teams like CR4ZY a large amount of exposure and allows them to compete with the best teams in the world. If CS:GO were to franchise, teams like Crazy would never have the chance to play on the biggest stage as the buy-in amount would be too expensive for most young teams. We would be left with the same 16-20 teams every year, each trying to outdo the other and each taking away young talent from teams who don’t have the funds to compete. Sure, there would be upsets, but nothing like what was there before. Each year there’s a team that comes out of nowhere to shock the CS:GO world and that’s part of what makes big tournaments so much fun to wa
December is the month that bats clean up for gamers, allowing us a chance to catch up on all the titles we missed this year. Among those titles I missed are Skyrim, Skyward Sword, and Battlefield 3 , so I hope to give those a go over the break. On top of that I’m also looking forward to finally procuring a 3DS and trying out Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 . And for my family fun I’m looking forward to checking out Scene It? Movie Night . Happy Holidays Rant
Players have to pick and choose which gun they can buy based on how much money is available to them for that round. With so many different options, it is sometimes difficult to know what to buy and when. Here are the best guns in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive __ in order and why you should be using t
The Desert Eagle, or Deagle as it is more commonly known as is the great equalizer. As a pistol, it is incredibly cheap. As a weapon, it is incredibly powerful. Very few weapons in Counter-Strike __ are capable of a one-shot kill. The Deagle is one of them. It is a workhorse if used well, capable of winning rounds by itself. However, miss your shot and you have no way to defend yourself. The Deagle rewards skilled players by allowing them the opportunity to win rounds they have no right winn
At its core, Surf Maps cater to a dedicated “mode” where players don’t shoot each other but instead “surf” around the map at ridiculous speeds. As a result, Surf Maps end up becoming a challenge of navigation and speed – something that proves more difficult than it seems. How exactly could players participate in Surf Maps, tho
The AWP’s little cousin, the SSG 08, or Scout rifle, is an excellent choice when doing a half buy or an eco round where you can’t afford an AWP. The Scout is extremely affordable and effective for its price point. It will one-shot anyone to the head and will do massive damage to the body, leveling the playing field for your teammates with bad guns. Capable of locking down long corridors or holding angles like the AWP, the Scout trades pure killing power for a more attractive price point and mobil
