Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4??

According to source, voice work is already starting on a title nicknamed "Call of Duty 2013," which can be a part of the Modern Warfare story arc. The game is slated for a 2013 launch date. I've got to assume that this title is really Modern Warfare Four, which it'll follow the currently established biennial release cycle that the series has controlled for over 1/2 a decade so far.

God of...what buttons are you pushing?!

So have you seen the new God of War: Ascension video game? If not, check out the trailer below it's ok I'll wait...

Ok great I didn't lose you, yet! I myself haven't played this game yet, but the gameplay itself looks pretty frustrating. I don't want to put my money in my mouth just yet-- I do see some potential in this violent, bloody, multiplayer video game. You got the angry gladiators, some Roman Soldiers, and a freakin Cyclops as big as a damn building. For some reason, I can picture my friends and I button mashing and cussing at the game for having such confusing controls.

This game for some reason will have some RPG elements along with the gore such as avatar construction, then you get your avatar toward a deity of your choice such as Ares, the God of War or Zeus, the King of the Gods, for example. Depending on your choice, you will get a bonus for you class of fighter.

I really hope this game is really worth my $60 because if not, I always got DFO.

Is the next Playstation destined to fail?

So obviously everyone knows about the rumors about the new game systems. The XBox 360 itself has been a force in the gamer universe with their fair updates and less buggy versions of the video games (e.g. Skyrim). Sony has almost made it habit to launch after their competitors thus rushing their entire programming process thus FUCKING up like no tomorrow. To be fair I own a Playstation 3 and I love it but the long ass updates have been driving me crazy sometimes I miss my XBox...BUT I have faith in Sony and I know that they can climb out this hole and destroy the competition. I know they can fully unlock the Vita's capabilities to make our days seem less dark.

Need a flashback?

So I don't know if you have heard about this new reboot for Tomb Raider. Well I checked out some of the screenshots and I have to say "WHOA!". The developers pretty much got the old games and burned them in a furnace to power up their sexy new systems because they apparently want to be eco-friendly (I assume).

Any who, this game according to the developers, Crystal Dynamics, is to reconstruct the origin of the main character, Lara Croft, as to why she is such a badass. The entire game will evolve her from your average person to the wounded animal hiding in the corner to the no-holds-barred woman we all know and love, but at what cost?

Don't expect any original gameplay from the old titles. Crystal Dynamics overhauled the whole gameplay as well.

The game will be released for the Windows PC, Xbox 360, and the Playstation 3. Release date as of today is March 5, 2013.

Move over True Crimes and GTA!

The developers of Modnation Racers (United Front Games) and the creators of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts (Square Enix) bring you, Sleeping Dogs.

Sleeping Dogs takes you to the gritty streets of Hong Kong as Wei Shen, a undercover cop whose mission is to infiltrate the Sun On Yee triad organization.

So I began the game first by euphorically falling for the free running aspect of the gameplay, which by far kept me on my toes (so to speak) then after the cutscene I started doing some quickie missions to get familiar with the entire game itself. I have to say I was impressed with the hand to hand combat because it WILL unleash your inner GOD OF WAR with counters, special moves and combos. You have a lot of enviromental attacks to choose from that I don't even think I found all of them.

The driving was pretty cool other than driving on the other side of the street and the stunt jumps I was able to keep myself a bit entertained.

BUT the gunfights were another story. You can do human shields, slide over bars in slo-mo as well as jumping but unfortunately... (Spoiler!) I didn't get the guns until almost the last section of the game and the only way to get a gun before then was to disarm a police officer or check a trunk of a police car. The only way to do that was to gain the abilities which can only be gained by playing FURTHER into the game. Don't think once you got the gun its yours to keep because once you run out of ammo or enter/exit a mission that gun you cherished oh so deeply for will be gone in a snap!

Overall, I think the game is unique in terms of action, the customization is pretty awesome, the DLC is to die for, and the replayability is there, but I won't be hooked on it.

Overall: 4/5
Replayability: 3/5
Story: 4/5
Gameplay 4.5/5
