God Of War : Ascension Multiplayer
God Of War Multiplayer? Now that you don't see it in every of their game. I mean they're totally into Single Player and I think most Gamers wouldn't really need a Multiplayer especially in God Of War. Their Single Player is well enough satisfying and it makes you wanna play again and again and again. Now God Of War: Ascension Multiplayer, Judging by the video, it looks like survivor mode. I love the way they do the combo in the gameplay. It will challenge the player to do more skill to kill off an enemy. That's my opinion though. More to come!
Call Of Duty Black Ops 2 Confirmed!

Mass Effect 3's ORIGINAL Ending (The Dark Energy Conclusion)
When Mass Effect 1/2 lead writer Drew Karpyshyn drafted the stories, he intended for a concluding plot in Mass Effect 3, in which dark energy played a major role in the ME universe. Hints have even been given in previous games, such as Mass Effect 2 when Shepard saves Tali during her investigation on a star system. The sun of that particular system was said to be ageing abnormally, dying out sooner than it should have. This hinted toward the fact that dark energy was causing this.
In the purported original ending, the Reapers were actually more of a tragic race, and the reason they come out of dark space every 50 000 years is to search for technology from advanced races to stop the spread of dark energy. In the story, dark energy was something of an unstoppable force which would consume the entire universe if not for the Reapers, who in every 50k years, come out of hiding, harvest the most technologically advanced sentient species, combine it with their own, and slow the spread of the dark energy's destruction.
The original morality choice ending was as so-- Shepard would either choose to destroy the Reapers; therefore saving humanity and the entire universe for a short time before the dark energy consumed everything, or stall, and allowed the Reapers to devour all life to stop the dark energy.
Alas, this ending did not come to pass as reports blamed EA, IGN and several other sites for news leak. This forced BioWare to change the story to save the franchise's interest.
This is OFFICIAL news from lead writer Drew Karpyshyn himself. Sources are here; http://www.strategyinformer.com/news/17086/mass-effect-writer-drew-karpyshyn-reveals-original-mass-effect-3-endings.
I honestly think anything would have made a better ending than the Red, Blue or Green ending we have now. I guess nothing can be said until the extended ending DLC of Mass Effect 3 comes out in summer 2012.

Bethesda's Next Project: DISHONORED
Dishonored stars Corvo, a loyal guard framed for murdering the Empress of the Neo-Victorian world of Dunwall. Jailed and in shame, Corvo receives help from a mysterious entity who offers him powers beyond his imagination to exact vengeance on those who wronged him.
By the looks of the game trailer, gamers have speculated Dishonored has the feel of Bioshock (supernatural abilities as depicted in the trailer) and Assassin's Creed and a little bit from the Thief series. The Thief element in the game is acknowledged as Harvey Smith, game designer who previously worked on Thief: Deadly Shadows, is the lead designer of Dishonored.
Dishonored will be available on PS3, Xbox360 and PC sometime this year.

Need For Speed the Movie?

I am not really surprise about this. In fact, I am not really keen of watching this unless it is releasing out in the cinema. Why? First of all, Bioshock movie. What happen to that? It has a really fantastic storyline. Not all the games have that storyline. Mindblown. Next, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Everyone knows that Uncharted was created by Naughty Dog and they have excellent "Indiana Jones" like storyline. Treasure Plunderer. Turns out they stop? I don't hear it anymore. Anyway, Back to Need For Speed. Electronic Arts has teamed up with writer-producer John Gatins ( Real Steel ) to develop a Need For Speed (NFS) movie. It's going to be like Fast And Furious I presume. But if this totally works, Please make an Uncharted movie or Assassin's Creed movie!

Crysis 3 First Details

This is going to be a short post but yesterday, Crysis 3 was revealed by EA's Origin store. Wow. Such a spoiler? Failure? I don't know what to say. Anyhow, Crysis 3 will take place in a heavily destroyed New York City. The city is "almost a jungle" this time around, effectively combining the setting of Crysis 1 and 2. This information was in a Russian site Mad Fan Boy. Although it is unconfirmed. I'm pretty sure every Crysis fan is hyped out. But hopefully its not as bad as Crysis 2.

10 Gb update you say? Wait, Its FREE?!

Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings, I think it deserves at least a few award including the Game of The Year and RPG. But sadly, last year was not easy for Witcher 2 as many games was launch last year such as Skyrim, Dark Souls, and so on. But that doesn't stop Witcher 2 for being one of the best games out there. CD Projekt recently re-release Witcher 2: Assassins Of Kings Enhanced Edition. The reason why is that, They were so many bugs and glitches in the game. They fixed most of it and adding few more hours of gameplay and cutscenes. The best part is the customer who bought the Witcher 2 only shall receive this humongous update for free! Yes. 10 GB update for free. The news came out recently and my mind was blown away. I pity who those has slow internet connection such as us in Malaysia. But nonetheless is worth waiting! I love what CD Projekt reply when PC Gamer ask them a question. See their response.
Have you ever thought about … charging money for these updates?
“DOES NOT COMPUTE.”
That is the best reply ever. Usually game nowadays, such a small DLC, They are charging it for like $4.99 up to $15. Some might be even lesser or more. CD Projekt loves their customer and that is why I love CD Projekt! Thanks CD Projekt! Keep up the good work!

Lost Planet 3 Debut Trailer
Capcom is on a role here! First Resident Evil 6, then Devil May Cry 5 and now Lost Planet 3. Well whichever it is first. They really have surprise us along the way. This trailer is another job well done. Love the humor and their faces but sadly its CGI trailer. In-game is still unknown. I enjoy playing Lost Planet 2 but not a really high replay value cause its not that immersive. I hope this one is better! Anyway enjoy the trailer!
Devil May Cry 5 Gameplay Trailer
Who am I kidding? This trailer has got to be the best of most Devil May Cry. First it looks pretty sick and when I mean sick, It looks really cool. Awesome. Judging from this trailer, they change most of the thing. I love how the gameplay goes. Graphic looks pretty slick. I don't know about everyone but Dante's looks alright to me. His original looks does look better but this Dante however its alright to me. I don't think it won't be a problem but many gamers have already started complaining about his looks. I mean come on people, they can change it whenever they want to. This reminds me of Infamous 2. They change it in the end. Whatever they do, they are still doing good about this game.

Shit Reviewed: Alan Wake
Shit's creepy. And I like it. Because shit that isn't cheap, is good entertainment. And Alan Wake delivers good, scary shit.
So. You are put into the shoes of Alan Wake, a troubled writer who goes for a vacation to Bright Falls with his nyctophobic (fear of the dark, noobs) wife, Alice. Things look peaceful in the simple harmless old town, until night falls. That's when all the creepy shit happens and you're thrust into the dark to save your sanity.
The opening itself blends gameplay introduction and story quite well. If there were any faults here, I would blame the voice acting. Alan's voice actor did a good job as a loner kind of writer who suffers from writer's block, but the voice from the sky who helps him with how to work his way around the first level?
Meh.
The gameplay mechanics is simple but strong enough to carry the burden of the story. Be warned, you are not Leon S Kennedy nor Isaac Clarke in this video game. There will be no fully auto machine guns or Contact Beams in your inventory. No worries, though, for you are equipped with the basic revolver (and as your progress, a shotgun) and a flashlight. Though not as powerful as the BFG in Doom, these weapons would prove useful when you're encountering the weird-ass dark-infested minions of the game's antagonist.
how the "flash-first-shoot-later" method works.
Speaking of collectibles, there are manuscript pages that can be-- well, collected. And these pages sometime foretell the events that will happen in the game, though nothing major to spoil the fun, but enough to keep you on the edge.
Uncharted 3 New DLC

So there I was playing with my friend in co-op in Uncharted 3. Ever since they added splitscreen, everything was just perfect. The game is really that good. I shall review it tomorrow. But on to the topic, A new DLC on the way for Uncharted 3. 4 new multiplayer maps. It seems quite sad because its only 4 new multiplayer maps but I'm sure they have more in store for us. Especially the latest game they are working on. The Last Of Us. It's a survival apocalyptic- game. You all should check it out. The graphic itself is worth watching. The 4 new multiplayer maps are dynamic! So the map will change events. This is what they said.
" In Graveyard, a patrol boat will circle the border and launch grenades. In Oasis, a passing plane will drop a shipping crate that can flatten you," Monacelli wrote. " If you're smart enough to stay out of the crate's shadow, you may score the power weapon that resides inside. London Street and Old Quarter contain dynamic events as well... but we want to leave you a couple big surprises, don't we ? "
The pack will available for $9.99 on its own, or free to Fortune Hunter's Club members. The Fortune Hunter's Club will close its doors on April 17th, but until then, players can pay $24.99 for access to 14 packs of Uncharted 3 downloadable content.

Street Fighter X Tekken Review
Street Fighter series. The good old days. Learning the combat move for each and everyone one of the character. Perfecting every combo moves. In the end of the day, getting a blister was worth it. Capcom had finally release Street Fighter x Tekken on the March 9th,2012. This game is available for the PS3,Xbox 360 and the PC. This game also feature characters from both the Street Fighter franchise and Namco's Tekken series ( kinda obvious judging by the title ). For those who don't know about this game, it has the same 2D fighting gameplay of Street Fighter except 3D graphics. Of course there are changes here and there and that is why we are here to talk about. Of course they are similarities for those who play their previous title which is Street Fighter IV and also Super Street Fighter IV. Let's get on to it!
They are not much story to talk about over here. But I will talk about it anyway. Basically, a news reported that something crash landed to earth and well it has some mystical powers. Everyone wants it and each character you play will tell you the story in a different manner. Although the story might not interest some of the players, Street Fighter fans will still have many hours and hours of gameplay despite its story. As usual they have the same interface, as previous title. But we will come to that later. The fighting style has changed in Street Fighter x Tekken. Now instead of 1 VS 1 in battle, now players have to choose 2 character in order to play. Yes, they have changed into a tag team battle. Each player can switch whenever they want to. But this isn't the best part, players are now able to "juggle" enemies in the air like in Tekken or Mortal Kombat to perform even better combo. This is also the bad part of the game though. In my opinion its kinda imbalance such that if a person can juggle the other party endlessly performing a combo. The other party doesn't stand a chance to fight. It is not really a big issue, its fun to combo and the fighting feels even more satisfying than usual. There is also a new system call the "Gem System" some of you might heard. It allows you to boost certain attributes if one achieves certain goal. There is also a "last resort" call "Pandora". It is sorta like, when you are near death and you know that you're losing you will become super strong and you have to beat up your opponent within the time limit. Once the time limit stops, you die. This last resort thing doesn't really help much. Unless, one really timed it right. In terms of graphics, the graphic has a slight improvement and the game doesn't lag when I'm playing in the PS3. It does have many similar graphic as previous Street Fighter but its different. Unless there is something wrong with my eyes.
I have not go deep into the Multiplayer but I can tell you that. It's really hard to find a game especially in Asia ( I'm Asian ). I waited forever for a game and nothing. Even if I switch to any region. I have to wait more than 30 minutes probably an hour to finally to fight with an opponent. This is the saddest part, when fighting the opponent the game really lags due to internet connection. It's really hard to cope to fighting games especially online. I had to surrender because the lag was terrible. I also found a bug that sometime the sound were silenced. You can't hear the hit sounds only music. Hopefully Capcom fix that. Other than that, the Multiplayer has the same features as the previous Street Fighter titles such as watching replays. I love the new gameplay though. Where both of you and your friend against the world. Especially four of the player face off together. It is one hectic, fun and amazing fight.
Overall, Capcom delivers the game tremendously. The new fighting system gives player more range and skill needed to perform better combo. Furthermore, the tag system is fun especially switching one another to perform crazy mega combo. To all fighting fans out there, get this game cause its one of the game that you must not miss.
PS. My Facebook if anyone interested in talking about games and also get to know. Feel free. Of course don't spam wall etc. Facebook : Nico Whong.

Beth Announce New MMO
From the story:
An industry source that wishes to remain anonymous revealed the name of the new MMO to us, and confirmed that the game would take place a full millennium before The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Using the Elder Scrolls Wiki timeline as a guide, Elder Scrolls Online will likely take place during the “Second Era,” or several hundred years before any of the other Elder Scrolls games.

The Dead Finally Rise to PC
Before I begin with the good stuffs, Resident Evil 6 is set in 2013, the game picks up Leon Kennedy's story from the end of Resident Evil 4. In addition, Chris Redfield also returns, although this time he's fighting through the action-oriented fictional Chinese town of Lanshiang. Capcom promise us that zombie are faster and stronger. Plus, more action! Many people complain about Resident Evil 5 that it isn't as scary like it used to be. Many old time gamers will be ranting about it. I agree. Resident Evil suppose to be all horror and sending chills down your spine every step you take. Let's hope they made it better this time. But guess what? The game is officially announced that it is going to release on PC. Sadly, console gamers will be getting their hands on the game on the November 2012. While we, PC gamer will have to wait until "later". Should be around.. 2013? That's not too long.. hopefully?

Mass Effect 3 Review: Take Earth Back!
We all know how it feels when a trilogy ends, whether it is a movie or a game. Such stories could make us express countless emotions. Finally, the long awaited Mass Effect 3 arrives in stores and it marks the final chapter in the legendary Commander Shepard's tale. For those who don't know (and shame on you) Mass Effect 3 is the sequel to Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 which were released in 2007 and 2010 respectively. The Mass Effect series is an action role-playing game developed by Canadian developers BioWare and published by Electronic Arts for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360. This latest continuation of the saga was released on the 6th of March 2012.
Once again, you are Commander Shepard, the star of the story and everyone is counting on you to fend offthe Reapers from Earth. You will have to raise an army and make your last stand against the Reapers. This game is not all about running cover to cover and shooting the enemy's head off. The choices you made in the game will affect whatever coming events and also the ending. You will have to think this through because sometime the choices you made will cause many sacrifices.
Mass Effect 3 offers you around 20+ hours of Single Player campaign. The story is just fabulously told. The player has the flexibility to change the story but in the end it leads up to one thing, Fighting off the Reapers. There is a little disappointment in me because there is less to do in the game because previously in Mass Effect 2, the side mission feels more interesting and compelling such as the "companion" mission. But that doesn't stop you from playing the game because the main story is compelling enough. The voice of each characters are splendid and perfect. Each character has its own personality. Every time when the game initiates a cutscenes or a conversation, you don't even feel like skipping it instead listening to what they say even if you don't understand what are they saying. The AI in this game is not for the faint of heart. The AI has been massively improved comparing to Mass Effect 2. You will have to think wisely before running from one spot to another. But luckily, players who are not experienced can always change difficulty. I highly recommend to play it in normal(default difficulty) or higher because it's really challenging. Besides that, the graphic has been slightly improved though maybe some of you won't be able to notice it. But nonetheless, it looks great. Sure many expect more due to high end game like Crysis 2, Battlefield 3 and so on. But a graphic like Mass Effect 3 is never late. Furthermore, Mass Effect series has always been high replayability because there are tons of decision and consequences that the players can find. However, at the end of the game, many fans will be disappointed about the ending of the game. Fans will be saying " after all that, it's just LIKE this?! ". But different people has their own opinion. Some say it is the best ending because its the last game of the series.
After completing Mass Effect 3, Bioware has add in multiplayer. It is something new because Mass Effect series has always been famous for their epic single player campaign. The multiplayer is co-op survival where you and your friend have to work together to survive waves of enemy and complete specific objectives. It is sort of like Gears Of War. It is however important to your single player campaign. It plays an important role of the game. Players can spend time playing it and of course progress their single player campaign at the same time. There is a part in Multiplayer where it frustrates me is that I am unable to connect to EA server. It takes forever to connect. When it doesn't, a notification pops out and says " DLC not authorize". Not only that, I can't make progress as I am unable to play Multiplayer. EA/Bioware has to fix this.
In a nutshell, there is absolutely no " bad parts " about Mass Effect 3. Even if you encounter some slight bugs and glitches that doesn't stop you from playing it because its that great. From gameplay to graphics, everything is just wonderful. I highly recommend every gamer out there to play Mass Effect 1 and 2 before saving the Earth in Mass Effect 3. Save file from Mass Effect 1 and 2 will be able to continue meaning whatever you did in Mass Effect 1 will affect Mass Effect 2. This is one epic trilogy that you will not want to miss.
