The Eighth Generation of Gaming:PS4, Wii-U and Xbox 720, my thoughts.

Hello everyone. For those of you know what today entails I wish you a happy 4/20 and for those of you who are having a regular Saturday, I hope you're having a good weekend thus far. PS4 Back in February we a lot of us learned of Sony making an announcement, February 21st we saw the tech details and a few launch titles for the Playstation 4. We saw the new dual shock controller as well, which personally I like the design of it but I hope that we get some time before the console's launch to actually use the controller. I am very curious as to what the touch screen will do and if it will actually enhance the game experience. I have an Xbox 360 right now and I love the controller so I hope the move from 360 to PS4 will be comfortable. As for the tech behind the PS4 I'm not an expert in this aspect but from what I've heard it is a powerful PC, not as powerful as the current GeForce that was released this year but the PS4 performance will be slightly behind the ...

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Weapon Guides: Vector K10 Sub-Machine Gun Weapon Guide

Hello again everyone. Once more we're heading into Black Ops 2, this time we're taking a look at the sharpest SMG of the tier. The Vector K10. Weapon Profile The Vector K10 or KRISS Vector is a very unique weapon, unique in what it is capable of doing . Most weapons have low recoil due to caliber fired, the KRISS Vector however utilizes asymmetrical recoil and in-line design to reduce recoil and muzzle climb, it absorbs the recoil in order to decrease the recoil. With this recoil reduction system it is capable of firing the very powerful .45 ACP round, this design was made in order to prove that the Vector could "tame" a powerful round. This weapon has been seen in Modern Warfare 2 but was simply known as the Vector. The weapon had extremely low recoil but lacked damage, 25-20 units of damage was astonishingly weak, Stopping Power would only increase the weapon damage to 30-25. Still could not compete with most SMGs, especially the UMP.45. The Vecto...

Keep in mind the games are not listed in any particular order or rank, it is just a list of my favorite games. Let's continue. Number 4 Red Dead Redemption Back in 2011 one day I'm browsing through our local video store which surprisingly is still open. I search through the 360 games to rent a game and I find Red Dead Redemption, I bring it back put it in the 360 and what happened next was pure awesomeness.

Feel free to list your top 10 in responses to the post on Google + or in the comments section below, keep in mind though this is not in any particular order or rank it's a simple list of ten games I personally prefer over all else. Let's begin. Number 10 L.A. Noire I grew a particular interest in the 1950s after playing Fallout 3, after seeing the announcement trailers, seeing all the detail going into the game and then a sale on Amazon, L.A. Noire instantly became one of my many favorite games in my 360 library. The acting, the atmosphere, the story and the new approach to investigative game-play, if I had one game to play for an entire month, you would not see me complaining if that one game was L.A. Noire. This is a game that has an extreme amount of dedication to the work and it is so much different then many other video gam...

In story driven games there is always the hero and the villain, what makes these stories interesting is not only the plot of it but also the characters involved in the story and then of course you have your classic villains who want to take over the world or the evil corporation that wants to be as rich as god at the cost of human life.
