Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey is PS4 timed exclusive

df3Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey is now coming to PS4 alongside the PC as a timed exclusive which does not bother me much but the hypocrisy of some does. When Microsoft does it; everyone loss their minds. When Sony does it; Genius.

Let me clarify something: I have every console made from 3rd generation going onward so its not that I hate someone but the hypocrisy is killing me. My take: Good for Sony to secure another exclusive although I fail to see a big impact but good job never the less.

The game will be coming alongside its PC plan in late 2014. Dreamfall is one of the greatest point and click ever made although I still think the first chapter will still be the greatest but good game.

Windows 9 impression

When Windows 8 was first announced I had mixed emotions as I was perfectly happy with Windows 7’s performance. But with increase urge to try the next big thing and with the help of my brother who kept on praising W8 I finally made the switch and boy, was I impressed.

Before going forward, I would like to make it clear that the looks play big part in me deciding to try something out. I know it is stupid but that’s how I am. What made me love Windows 8 is the beautiful design along with a noticeable boost in performance in gaming. As a PC gamer every fops counts and I must say I had about 10 or more FPS increase. I am yet to update to 8.1 as I read horror stories about games not working and what not so that’s for the future.

Now what bothered me about Windows 8 is the tablet interface. I know I can easily get out but with the lack of the Start button which I tend to use allot the experience got downgraded for me. Apart from that everything was good although I still think Microsoft Store looks and feels strange.

Now Windows 9 is announced with the possible return of the Start button and I am excited again. What I expect is another increase performance with more beautiful designs and from the rumors and little news I think I will be getting just that. I know I can add the start button to Windows 8 but the original ingratiated Windows 9 design looks amazing. Mark my words; I will be switching, just not right away as I first need to confirm the gaming performance hit or increase.

Another beautiful concept floating around the web. Just look at this beauty. Years ago when I was using Windows 95 I always thought why cant PC operating system look beautiful. Now I can smile as my wish came true. Nothing comes close to this design and certainly not OSX which I am using for over a year and hatting every part of.

Let us all hope that my predictions about Windows 9 turns out true ;J

Resident Evil 7 goes old school? 

re7The supposed Resident Evil 7 image is out on the internet. It worms my heart to see the reunion of the originals as it bring back amazing memories of the amazing Resident Evil one. Remembering the golden era of the video games as well as my own memories of playing this gem.

The word is; Resident Evil 7 will be the final part of the series as its been stretched far enough. I don’t know how to react as part of me agrees that Resident Evil reached its final life part with all the failures after 3. Another part will miss new Resident Evils and will always wish for more.

Resident Evil is still my favorite horror and possible all time greatest (Resident Evil one) so letting go will not be that easy. Any way, lets hope for the best and celebrate once news is out.

Resident Evil 6 first impression

Starting this post with a fact that I am the biggest Resident Evil fan there is. I own most of the Resident Evil games on multi platforms and still hunt the remaining ones on eBay and local sellers. With that out of the way, lets get into my first impression after playing Resident Evil 6 on Xbox 360.

re6Growing up with Resident Evil 1 and on made me love the franchise more and more until part 4 and 5. It is when the formula totally changed and the game became something else with the Resident Evil name. I started Resident Evil 6 playing as Chris; the old school Resident Evil 1 hero who started taking steroids from RE5 and onward.

The controls felt broken and un resident evil like although I got used to them in 30 minutes. The new inventory system is confusing and time consuming. Why couldn’t they keep the RE 5 inventory system is beyond me.

The first chapter was not that great to begin with as it seemed very repetitive and boring. As I finished it and moved on to the second, things started to change for the better. I am now more familiarized with the system and the enlivenment but the thing is, I cant but feel that I am playing a 3rd person Call of duty game. The squad command is not helping either. Resident Evil was always about 1 guy getting into trouble in a no man zone. Running around a group of solders is not Resident Evil.

Never the less, I am enjoy so far and my brother who has completed the game is saying that things will get better. Hoping for the best. Out.

Killing Floor is surprisingly fun

Now hold on, before you rage let me make it clear: I bought the game shortly after release but did not understand the idea of it so I left it alone. Years later my brother was playing the call of duty zombie mode and I immediately realized how fun would killing floor be.

KillingFloor 2014-07-20 00-20-09-809Wasting no time I downloaded the game again and bought all the DLCs pack as they were on sale and sent a gift version to my brother. Hours after I came to conclusion that I missed a great game and was glad I give it a second chance.

The problem is, I am new to such type of games so I started learning and practicing. Of curse all of my sessions were offline as my internet is not stable enough. The game is very hard, even on beginner as I’m struggling to defeat the first boss but I kept on playing and will continue to do so. I may pick KF2 when its released but for now I’m enjoying this great game.

Waiting for my brother to fix his PC so he can join me in killing the freaks. Recommended to all.

Sting announced as preorder bonus for WWE 2K15

It’s no secret that the legendary Sting was negotiating his WWE contract for some time now, what surprised me is him being announced for the upcoming WWE game without his presence. Now I understand him coming out, announcing his game and leaving without any fights is pointless but it was wired.

To be honest, I have mixed feelings about his WWE debut; First, the WWE did not respect or use any wCw stars once the purchase was made. All the former wCw stars became jobbers except for the later once like Goldberg and maybe Scott Steiner. Even Eric Bischoff was humiliated. Sting himself said that going to WWE is a gambling and he did not trust how WWE would use him and with Cena burying everyone left and right I must say I’m worried.

The last thing I want to see is Sting being destroyed and humiliated by Cena and with taker out of the picture I don’t see any good thing coming out of this except the cash.

stingOnce other thing that pisses me off; Why is Cena on the cover when a big time legend like Sting is making his announcement on joining the company?

My personal take? He should have stayed in TNA or maybe help the upcoming Global Force. Of course I may be wrong but we shell see. All the best for the Stinger.

Batman Arkham Origins Complete Edition on Amazon

As anticipated and expected, Batman Arkham Origins Complete Edition show up on Amazon.de. This version is supposed to be out on  21. August 2014. The game of the year like version will have all the DLCs as well as skins, in short everything that came out in one package. I will pick it up for 36o as I already did on my PC the day it was out and completed it 99%.

The box art looks amazing well.

Steam announced Family Sharing

steamshair

sharing is caring, and now Steam surprisingly announced that you will soon be able to share your games with a family or friends. Of course the number will and should be limited but that’s more than enough considering each can get his own achievements and cloud saves. Good move Steam.
