Thoughts on Advanced Warfare Multiplayer Reveal

Today marked the reveal of Call of Duty Advanced Warfare's multiplayer.

How the exo-suit changes the game, new customization, weapons, perks, streaks etc.

I will say that this game does look very different from past Call of Duty titles. Mostly due to the fact that the exo-suit is now letting players jump high, hover, super-punch opponents and dodge to several directions avoid gunfire or whatever else threatens to end your streak.

Oh yeah and there are laser weapons now
Honestly, it did not impress me.

There wasn't really anything that I saw in the reveal that was jaw dropping or anything that  looked exciting in the game. In fact, I'm watching footage right now from other youtubers  right now and I'm still not impressed with the game.

Environments do look nice but the color pallet is yet again very bland. Nothing really pops-out or is eye catching. 

Create-A-Class brings back the Pick 10 system from Black Ops 2 except now it's Pick 13 that even includes Score-streaks. So it's either stock up on weapons and perks or weapons and score-streaks.

What looked really interesting to me was the Supply drop reward system. After awhile of earning XP, game challenges etc. You get a random Supply drop with either items to customize your character or find different variations of weapons.

Say you have a standard AK-12, you unlock a Supply drop and it brings in a modified AK-12. This AK-12 might be different due to it having a new camo, increased reload speed, less recoil or increased damage.

Overall I think this reveal was interesting but not impressive.  It didn't really show off anything that would hook me into the game or even be excited for it to come out.

Quite honestly it looks really boring. Even with lasers and exo-suits.

It does look different, but not very different for me to one day go out and buy the game when it's released.

Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Weapon Guide:M-TAR Assault Rifle

Hello everyone, time for my first weapon guide of Black Ops 2. Today we're looking at the starting assault rifle, the M-TAR. History The Micro-Tar is a micro version of the TAR-21 rifle. It's designed to take advantage of a shorter barrel which means decreased recoil but increased accuracy. Designed for special fores units, it is capable of converting to different ammo variants such as the NATO standard 5.56 cartridge and the 9mm submachine gun round. It is also designed to be capable of attaching a Suppressor, as of 2009 a grenade launcher was being designed to attach to the M-TAR, the M-TAR can attach the M203PI grenade launcher. If you're a FPS veteran then you saw this weapon first in Battlefield 3 as part of the Close Quarters DLC, for COD veterans we saw this weapon's bigger brother, the TAR-21 in Modern Warfare 2. I'm warning you now, the M-TAR is not the TAR-21 we saw in Modern Warfare 2. Multiplayer Stats, Attachments and Performance In gam...

Retro Gazette Reviews:Batman Returns SNES Review

Hello everyone. Welcome to another one of my Retro Reviews. Today we're going to be looking at a personal favorite of mine from the Super Nintendo era. Batman Returns. Story Music If you can't tell all ready from the intro video above, the music to Batman Returns for the SNES sounds great and does a good job of recreating some of the songs we heard in the film. My personal favorite stage music is from Stage 7 when you enter Arctic World, The Liberation of Gotham track sounds amazing in 16 bit audio. It's strange to review the music in a video game but the audio stands out so much and does an amazing job, again of recreating the films' soundtrack. Presentation The graphics and detail of Batman Returns is very good and ironically is much more colorful than the Tim Burton film. Gotham City, although currently suffering from a clown riot looks fantastic and Konami yet again does a good job of recreating scenes from the film, you see all these backgro...

Hello everyone and welcome to another one of my Black Ops 2 weapon guides. Today we're going over the community favorite sniper rifle. The Ballista. Weapon Profile The Ballista is known as the FN Ballista, a rifle designed by FN Herstal in Belgium, the rifle was designed to meet the reuirments of the Precision Sniper Rifle program for the US Army. The PSR program by the United States Special Operations Command to replace all current bolt-action sniper rifles in use by US special operations to instead have rifles chambered for .338 Magnum calibers, Lapua magnum and Norma magnum calibers.
