This is very much a late to the party review seeing as how DOOM was released a month ago and I didn't finish the game until a few days ago but I'm here now to review the game and oh man oh man was this a fun experience. If this game had been released back in the nineties you can be sure parents would have flipped their lid even more with the fact that this game exists. This is DOOM The Invasion of Mars For those of us that have played the original DOOM games (DOOM to DOOM 64) there has never been much of a story. You were just a marine that happened to be the soul survivor on the UAC base during a demonic invasion and fighting your way through the base all the way into the depths of Hell. DOOM 2016 introduces a story and a new origin story for the DOOM marine. The story goes over what the UAC was doing on Mars, how the invasion happened and who exactly the DOOM marine is. What I like about the story is that it's totally optional to what you want from your DO...

Oh boy oh boy have I been looking forward to writing another one of these again. Summer time is here and for many us the time has come to plan out trips to Disneyland, see relatives, go out to eat or get together snacks, drinks and a good rack of ribs to put on the Barbecue over the weekend for some quality summer cook-outs with a cold soda or beer to relax the day away. While this is going on, some of us out there are also thinking about what games to play over the summer to kill some time until the cookouts start and the trips to head out to Disneyland begin. There are quite the number of games out there that'll be a nice way to either kill some time over the summer or to have a fun day in to avoid the heat. Now for this list we'll actually be taking a trip back in time for some of these games so hopefully you guys and gals have these games either on hard drives or lying around in your game library. Here are the 7 games to play during the summer for 2016! 7. DOOM(201...

Ah, Dark Souls. A game series that is riddled with both admiration, fear and hatred. It is a series that I admit missed out on while it was very popular. When it first came out I did not play it. Not because I was afraid of it because of how difficult people said it had been or because of how skill one had to be in order to play it, simply put, I just never got around to playing it. I have since played both the original and the sequel and I would consider myself a mild fan of the series, mostly because I have not beaten either the first or second game in the series. With the third entry, my goal was to squeeze the most out of the game, go everywhere and explore as much as there was to explore. Go fully confident in abilities to take on the giant monster at the end of the tunnel where a set of armor or awesome weapon was waiting for me. Oh my god what an experience! This is Dark Souls 3! Lothric Nights  Like previous Dark Souls entries and Bloodborne, the story in Dark...

I have to admit I was pretty surprised to see how well this game was made. Granted there are still a lot of the typical CoD tropes in the game but I'm actually pretty glad to say I had fun with this. Thank god it was nothing like Call of Duty Ghosts!!! Power Changes Everything Advanced Warfare takes place in 2054. Modern military units are equipped with Exoskeleton Suits or Exo-Suits for short. Your standard infantry man or woman can jump to high ground in an instant or dash away from enemy fire without a single bullet grazing them. You play as Jack Mitchell, a soldier once fighting for the United States Military but is approached by Jonathan Irons, father of Mitchell's recently deceased best friend. You are brought into the private military company Atlas, an organization that has proven to be more successful in stabilizing regions and win the wars that other nations could not. As the story progresses you find that not all is perfect as we learn that Irons is not...

Besides the EA movie licensed games that were released with the three movies and a few spin-off titles. There hasn't really been that many games involving the Lord of The Rings universe has there? Well Shadow of Mordor seeks to change that and it will really surprise with how fun it is. But it may be because it plays a lot like another game a lot of us might have played involving a certain man in a mask. Banished from Death The story to Shadow of Mordor is a very interesting one, exciting to those who are a fan of the Lord of The Rings universe. The game centers around a Gondorian ranger, Talion, that is posted at the Black Gate. The outpost overlooking the lands of Mordor. One night the outpost is attacked by the Black Numenorean; Sauron's most elite captains in the Mordor army. Talions' family is then taken captive to be part of a ritual and is killed right in front of him. Talion is also killed, or so it seems that way. Talion is mysteriously still alive and...

One of the many remastered games that came out in 2014 was Metro Redux. A two for one remaster which contained 2010's Metro 2033 and 2013's Metro Last Light. I missed both titles during the 7th generation and decided to pick up the Redux after hearing good things about both games. I loaded up the game and was quickly put into the harsh and horrifying world of Metro. Welcome To The Metro The story of Metro 2033 is told through the main character Artyom as he ventures from his Metro home of VDNKh to a missile silo named D6 that may contain the firepower necessary to stop a group of creatures known as the Dark Ones. In between missions Artyom will give out information regarding the story or rumors surrounding the parts of the Metro and surface areas that Artyom is about to explore. These moments I think serve more as a time filler rather than to add to the lore of the Metro. Mostly because they are very short and don't add to the lore all that much. It is somewh...

There are many games out there that are more multiplayer focused. Competitive and cooperative alike. Games like Payday 2 are games that are heavily focused on co-op play and nothing but co-op play. You would be a fool to think "I'm going to play this by myself." This is Payday 2 Maybe there's a story? There isn't really a story to Payday. I tried to figure out if there was one, to realize there really isn't one. At least to the game. There is a webseries called Payday The Webseries which does shed a little more light on why the Payday gang is currently operating in Washington D.C. and who their handler, Bain is. Don't look to play Payday 2 to find an interesting story Believable yet dated Although many of Payday 2's environments are not exactly the most up to date, keep in mind this game was released in 2013. With that said though, environments are designed in a very realistic and believable way. A lot of the street areas, banks a...
