This one is for those that don’t want anything too flashy or distracting, as it’s an extremely stylish black bayonet with no intricate designs or patterns. In Field-Tested, the knife displays a few scratches, which give the weapon a more realistic l
Alex was driven by all of these approaches to bring everything together into one central hub for all things community. “One huge inspiration was PlanetPhillip.com, now RunThinkShootLive,” he tells me, “The site posted reviews of single-player Half-Life maps. I could see how much of a positive impact that had on the community. People were inspired to create Half-Life maps because they could see others making cool stuff and they knew their effort would not go to waste. There seemed to be room for something that could do the same for everything else in the community like fan art, fan films, music, and mods.
The platform is not quite finished yet, mostly because there are plans to expand and breathe more life into it. “We have a lot of plans for the platform,” Alex says. “Everything you see has been coded by just two people. I have a background in design and front-end web development. David – our CTO – is an ex-military software developer and created the system and servers behind it all. Our most requested thing right now is a native app, which we plan to work on later in the year once we feel the website is more complete. For now, we have sub-communities for major Half-Life games, mods, and topics in the work. We’re also releasing new features every week. Last week, we added mentions. Now we’re working on multi-image posts.”
This December my gaming focus is squarely centered on the PS3 versions Skyrim and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations . I still have yet to give Arkham City a whirl, but it is on my short list to play. On the PC front I’m still playing Deux Ex: Human Revolution . What can I say? I’m a perfectionist, and it’s a great game. Racing games have never been my forte but Forza Motorsport 4 will be the next game I purchase as I try to broaden my horizons a bit. However, I’m still itching with anticipation for Mass Effect 3 , and wonder how many play-throughs of ME2 I can manage before I get my conditions “just right.” Stay safe during the holidays Rant
Who says there are no good games released in December? Mario Kart 7 , Nintendo’s latest entry into it’s iconic racing franchise is coming this year, and it’s coming to a 3DS. What better way to ignore family at those tedious holiday get togethers than by racing down Rainbow Road? Still not sold? Well maybe you should check out our Mario Kart 7 review to see why this is one of the 3DS’ hottest tit
Oh, December. The month when I despair of ever playing all of the games I missed during November. The only new game on my radar for the rest of the year is Mario Kart 7 . Otherwise, it’s all about catching-up. Lord of the Rings: War in the North, Forza Motorsport 4, and Kinect Sports Season 2 continue to be the go-to games in my house, but Rayman: Origins and Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword top the list of games I can’t wait to get lost in over the holidays. I’m also really liking what I’ve seen of the new SSX — if I could play any of next year’s games right now, that would be the
With franchising, we would see dynamic gameplay changes like this less often, with most teams simply counter-stratting one another and doing the same executes repeatedly. Soon, viewers would be able to easily predict how a round might unfold before it has even started, leading to a loss in inter
It’s worth mentioning that not every player is a fan of Nuke. In fact, a large number of people in the CS: GO community hate the map with a passion. Nuke doesn’t have a lot of surprises now that CS: GO’ s developers removed the storage room at B. Everything is laid out very neatly, and there should be few surprises when playing Nuke. If you aren’t good with a sniper, you may not be a good Nuke player. Assault rifles are effective, but sniper rifles can get you easy uncontested ki
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 2 secrets __ 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
Vertigo is a fun map to play, but it seems like skipping Vertigo’s objective to eliminate the other team is easier. In the map Vertigo, one team is tasked with bombing a building that is under construction. The best CS: GO maps place importance on achieving the objective. With there are not many path options, each team usually faces each other head-on in a firefight. Vertigo is a beautiful map that is on top of a rooftop, but it has too many flaws to be considered one of CS: GO’ s most excellent m
