Gamer Guy with Two Cents

Hello everyone. I  recently finished Call of Juarez: Gunslinger.  I mean that quite literally, I finished my first playthrough not 20 minutes ago(when you guys read this it will be much later). How was it? It was very fun. Story Call of Juarez: Gunslinger takes place in 1910. A bounty hunter by the name of Silas Greaves stops in a saloon to take a break before he continues the job he's on. The patrons recognize his name and begin to ask him questions about his past adventures in his early days as a bounty hunter. Silas Greaves tells the story of his past. How he became a bounty hunter and why. Who was he after in his past adventures? Who has he hunted down and who has he killed? Is anything he's telling true? It's a great western story to be listened to. What's unique about the story however is how it is told. In most games, the story is told between cutscenes. You play a mission, finish it and the story continues. Not in Gunslinger, the story of Gunsl...

As we approach the launch of the Battlefield 4 Beta. It is time we say goodbye to Battlefield 3. In anticipation of Battlefield 4, I picked up the Premium Edition a few weeks ago. I've rented BF3 in the past but I finally went through with owning it. I'm glad I finally bought this game. For this review I will be going over the Campaign, Presentation and Multiplayer and the Premium aspect of this particular edition of BF3. I will not be covering every piece of DLC but I will mention what you gain access to if you purchase the Premium Edition to Battlefield 3. Let's begin. Campaign The Campaign to Battlefield 3 is one aspect of Battlefield 3 that is made rather poorly. The Campaign's story will be very familiar to many COD players. In the story of Battlefield 3 you are being interrogated by two people from the FBI. The main character, Sgt.Blackburn tells the story through flashbacks. You find out through Blackburn's story that he was sent to investigat...

Hello everyone. So yesterday(and today) has been  a great day for Rockstar and their latest masterpiece Grand Theft Auto V 10 out of 10s, 5 out of 5s and other high scores from reviewers all over the internet. On Metacritic the game is getting really good scores. 98 for the 360 version and a 97 on the PS3 version(don't ask me about the one point difference, I don't understand it either). I watched the Adam Sessler review on Rev3Games, 5 out of 5. IGN video review was done by Keza MacDonald, 10 out of 10. I recently watched Gamespot's review on Grand Theft Auto V, 9 out of 10. Reviewed by Carolyn Pettit, the game lost a point due to the erratic behavior of the three characters, they would take the moral high ground one moment but then sink to the lowest form of morality the next because the game dictated it. That 1 point off of a perfect score did not make people happy, right now there is 2,982 likes and 4,334 dislikes, take a guess as to why that is. The comm...

Good morning everyone. Last month Xbox Live Gold subscribers got access to some free games, among those titles was Dead Rising 2. I've never played any of the Dead Rising entries but I've heard it was a really great game. Dead Rising 2 is the first game I have played in the series and I'm glad I didn't spend money on this. Story Dead Rising 2 takes place 5 years after the events of the original Dead Rising. Chuck Green, a former motocross champion, is currently in the fictional casino town Fortune City, Nevada, Chuck is taking part in a controversial sports show known as Terror Is Reality, a game show in which participating contestants kill zombies for fame and fortune. Chuck is taking part in the show in order to win the prize money to buy Zombrex, a daily medication which suppresses the zombification process, he needs the Zombrex for his daughter Katey who was bitten by her mother who turned to a zombie in an outbreak that happened in Las Vegas a while ba...

Afternoon folks. An 8 year old child last Thursday killed his grandmother of 87 Marie Smothers. The Louisiana sheriff's department implied the child's activities in a violent virtual world may have led to the killing. That game? Grand Theft Auto IV Source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/27/marie-smothers-grand-theft-auto_n_3821879.html   Under state law the child cannot be charged for shooting his grandmother, children under the age of 10 are considered "immune from criminal responsibility". "It's not a crime if he's under 10 years old. We're still trying to figure out how to help this juvenile and his parents, it was determined that he did the shooting and it was an accident. He thought it was a toy gun, a play gun" said East Feliciana Parish District Attorney Samuel D'Aquilla. The boy was playing GTA right behind his grandmother, at some point the boy picked up a .38 caliber handgun and shot his grandmother from ...

Evening folks. It's all about Microsoft in this post. Phil Spencer has responded to Andrew House's "Shifting  Message" comment during Gamescom and CVP Phil Harrison. Phil Spencer Responds Source: http://www.gamespot.com/gamescom/microsoft-responds-to-sonys-shifting-message-comment-6413418/ Phil Spencer was speaking with Eurogamer about Andrew House's comment made near the end of Sony's Gamescom presentation. " While others have shifted their message and changed their story, we were consistent in maintaining policies and a model that is fair and in tune with consumer desires." In which Phil Spencer told Eurogamer: "The two-way conversation that we have with gamers is critical, if we weren't able to listen then I don't think we're really creating the ecosystem that means people want to come into the platform. Other people will do and say what they're going to say. FIne. We're running our program." -----...
