Mass Effect 3 Fall of Earth Multiplayer Special Forces Coop Gameplay Demo Short Review show one of my early attempt at mass effect coop while i was alone… So I don’t really know much about the game features since I’m not a super hardcore follower of this series so take it for what it is. I used the vanguard character with the Customizable Arsenal and i took the shotgun with a sniper.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Gameplay
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is certainly one of the game that offer you the most content for it price. It’s put you in a really deep and documented words of The Elder Scrolls fill with creatures that can be friendly as well as really hostile. Your character evolve as you go improving on the trait that you use the most and can become a true reflection of your behavior. The action you take also impact on the world to some extent and characters around you will sometime remind you of your adventures in the huge universe. It’s great fun and we highly recommend it to people that enjoy adventure. The only sad part is that it’s only singleplayer game, but what a massive achievement none the less.

Fallen Earth: Preview
I had to help dictator out with all his preview/reviews so here’s my preview for Fallen Earth: An MMOPG/FPS set in the post-apocalyptic American Grand-Canyon.
Here’s the written review for if you didn’t understand everything:
Fallen earth, no not fallout 3, fallen earth although they may look similar in some way fallen earth is an mmorpg-fps in the post apocalyptic American grand-canyon.
After a series of unfortunate events with viruses and nukes, the American Grand Canyon became one of the few liveable places left on earth.
You start off in a facility and discover that you’re actually a clone. These clones wear a necklace which gathers information and sends it to a database, when the clone dies a new clone is created and will remember everything what the previous clone experienced. It’s pretty original and finally a very good MMO explanation for reviving in cities. After destroying your own facility, you find out that your DNA is damaged and you’ll die soon if you don’t fix it that’s how you start off on the main quest.
Such as in every role playing game you can create your own character. You can chose your sex, face, hair and you have a load of options for tattoos and piercings. However the character creation is less detailed than I’m used to, you can’t adjust muscle mass meaning that all characters have the same torso size and you can’t have, for example slim characters. The preset faces all look kinda similar and only eye colour and tattoos will make your character’s face different from other players. I’m afraid there’s a great chance that you encounter a clone of yourself during your play.
Gameplaywise, the game plays like any other MMO, you go on quests, grind, level up, move on to the next city and continue the main quest.
The creators did put quite some time in building a detailed crafting and scavenging system. Through scavenging you find loot and then you can use this to craft weapons, armor, medicine and more for own or trading purposes. Your scavenging and crafting level up with exercising it or reading books. If you have a high scavenging level you will be able to scavenge better materials and that way craft better weapons.
The FPS perspective is original but also has some downsides for example in some places enemies can shoot through walls while you can’t fire back because there’s no auto lock. And surprisingly you miss your opponent a lot more fighting in melee than with guns. The good side is that your opponent has several weakness points to aim for, shooting an opponent in the face will do significally more damage than in the legs or torso, you can also take out enemies from afar with sniper rifles and even fire from your horse or motorcycle.
The creator’s main slogan is “Are you tired of elves, orcs and pixies?” and they’re right this MMO isn’t the usual fantasy world, more a fictional realistic post-apocalyptic world. Of course the game has big mutated monsters to fight but the weapons and many mounts like horses, motorcycles and cars are all very realistic.
The game has a classless system, you can give attribute points to skills like intelligence, guns, charisma and mutations which are mainly buffs. There are a decent amount of attributes so that you can set up a team of different players each with their own skills.
There are 6 factions you can join, each with their own allies and enemies, joining one will give you an increase in attribute points for the area they excel in but will make the enemy factions and probably also players who joined those factions, hostile to you.
The game does still has a lot of minor bugs but most of them are fixable. The company creating this game does not have any other games released, so I’m sure they will take their time to fix the bugs.
The fun thing with any MMO is the interaction with other players, the game provides several dances and events to interact with other players and make new friends. If you meet the right people or join a fun clan MMO’s like this can be loads of fun.
If you have always dreamed of playing a graphically strong MMOrpg/fps in a wasteland then Fallen Earth is your game. It will be released the 15th of September and will be 15 dollars a month.
Heads Up!
Well, it has been almost a year since I’ve made a post. In that time I’ve made only three videos, two which got banged with a copy write problem. I guess I’ll have to work on that.
Anyways, I haven’t made a video in a very long time. I’ve got three new videos planned for release. My first one is a Mount and Blade video showing possibly a tactical battle of some sort.
My second one will be a Stronghold 2 video of me making Croatia which I am looking forward to doing. I’m working with GreatDictator on this one, so you will know it will be great!
Finally will be a counterstrike video. I created a CSS clan with a bunch of friends one day, and they want to have a clan video. I’m the P90 Head Shot Expert for the clan, so I’m making a video of myself getting p90 kills.
Now then, here’s the video that didn’t get in any problems. It’s a Fallout 3 video. I got Fallout 3 on Christmas, and have been hooked for a very long time. Love the game to this day, one of my favorites. The video is all in VATS, which is a cinematic mode, so it should look pretty sweet regardless of if you’ve played or not. Enjoy!
Fallout 3 review
Well everything is FINE and dandy in vault 101 the game starts …with what has to be the youngest starting age so far in any RPG it starts you off at BIRTH so thats quite suprise the first time you play through it .Then you have quite a nifty selection of beards,hair styles and lots of other things I didn’t capture them all,but am sure that everyone thats watching this now probably already saw this somewhere else , but anyways the game is huge has a good story and above all has good gameplay so lets start with the story.
Basically put without spoiling the story you were literally born and raised in vault 101 starting from your birth till you 10 years old through the infamous GOAT test till the day that your father escapes the vault …and ill say it right now the game has 4 ending …not 400 .While your in the vault the game cleverly introduces the you to the games basic mehanics such as use of the VATS system and you create your characters look as soon as your born .You will also have a birthday party when your 10 .
Well once you exited the vault you get your first glance at the Capital wasteland where many dangers await…but first lets go to Megaton the first town that you’ll probably either save or destroy
depending on which path of karma you’ll choose ,the game has one of the best and is among the best of games that have a very good morale system, for those of you who have played Oblivion the games talk system might seem familiar except for the different look but still its nice…although I wish that they would have give your character a voice though ,since its kinda hard to imagine what tone of voice and all your character is using while you talk .But anyways if you have a high enough speech skill or a perk sometimes it opens unique dialog options.
No matter what you heard Fallout 3 is not a shooter it has a FPS perspective but you can go to a 3rd person perspective but its only recommended if you wanna check out your characters gear , the game offers a lot of exploring and a lot of stuff to collect such as bobble heads ,find secret areas such as the Bethased studios building , schematics for self built weapons and perhaps and an old favorite for the fans …Hermin…or was it Herbert …well anyways its an old character from the previous games hes a Ghoul that grew a tree out of his head and now it grew big enough to have a nice little sanctuary of green in that barren brown wasteland .
The games world moves in real time so its always different in one place of the world you might encounter an encounter between super mutants and some Talon company mercenary’s or your in danger and are being attacked and you run into a caravan on their way to the next town and they save your life …no matter where you are theres always a chance of something else happening on the other side of the area or in the middle of D.C . The game has a HUGE list of places you can visit sometimes you will wonder maybe they should have put a bit less environments since most of them have multiple places to explore within them you will always wonder whats there and whats there especially if your like me and search every little square of these places for First aid kits if your like me to cheap to pay for new stimpaks .
You can even break into houses too see if anythings available there,such as guns or books…now books are one way to increase your skills during your play time ,the game also has a rather fun way of both hacking terminals and lock picking.
Now onto the combat part of the gameplay well that and perks, perk enable you some special attributes or powers or add extra point to your stats …but you will grow fond of some more use full ones such as my favorite the mysterious stranger perk which if your lucky every time you use the VATS system you will have your guardian angel kick some ass .
The real time combat is somewhat more difficult and is mostly used when the player doesn’t have anymore action points to spend to use the VATS system…in the end you will find yourself using the system the most especially if you have the Bloody mess perk which for some strange reason no matter where you shoot your enemy’s they will fall apart completely most of the time but it’s still sweet to watch that cinematic camera zoom in on your face before you blow off your enemy’s head in glorious slow motion.
The music in this game…well I cant say anything more but the radio station music has some pretty sweet tunes and old classic’s such as I don’t want to set the world on fire and some more and if you like such songs then theres several more that am sure you’ll enjoy as well ,you will find lots of different other stations ,such as a Chinese army or liberation station or whatever , later on after you complete a quest one that has you retrive an violin from an old lady and my favorite Galaxy news radio which a pretty cool DJ which gives you updates on the things you have been doing and calling you whatever title your karma level has given you …although by the time he finally reports one of your latest deed’s you will most probably have done 2 or 3 others.
The graphics are up to todays standard’s and deliver a great atmosphere of atomic bombs hitting the 1950′s futuristic America …even though they could have made less debris in the streets its seriously annoying trying to find the right subway tunnel. And just for a side note this series was originally a 2D game .
If you have an house or an apartment you can spice them up with one of several themes such as wasteland explorer ,laboratory,vault,raider ,LOVE MACHINE …or something like that and my personal favorite the pre-war theme you’ll also get several different things like a book for your stats or stimpacks and food,your house or apartment will also be where you put your bobbleheads which add to your attributes or skills , oh and if you want to keep your beloved dogmeat safe you can put him in your house or apartments since sadly he cannot be revived. And just on a quick side note … I never really saw exactly why radiation is damageing never did much to me.
My only major annoyance is that unlike the previous 2 to 3 games this one doesn’t have animated endings which is sad since the games intro pretty much shows that it probably would have been sweet.
Overall if you liked or loved the previous 2 Fallout games then you shouldn’t be disappointed by this one even though I haven’t played the previous 2 am pretty much sure that this is a bigger ,richer and above all more bloodier game then the previous 2 , even if your a hardened explorer or recently got out of a vault yourself you’ll love the wastelands of DC .

Nordic Campaign of 1257
The Nordic Campaign of 1257. Lords of the Kingdom of Nords met in Tihr in 1256. During this meeting, they plotted to take multiple Khergit castles. From all over Calradia, vassals were called to Sargoth to begin the campaign. From Sargoth the campaign started, as the armies of the Nords marched forward past the Vaegirs and Swadians and into the borders of the Khergits. The Nordic Campaign of 1257 was a success, the Nords took four castles, two villages, and succeeded in taking out multiple large armies of the Khergits that were moving towards Nordic lines.

Mount&Blade – The Battle of Tyr River
I recently just started playing Mount and Blade again, (as you can tell by my “skills” -_-) and I decided to film one of the first couple of battles that I’ve done. The outcome wasn’t very pretty, but at least I won in the end.
Music is Ragnarok by Ultima Thule (a swedish band)
Mount & Blade 1.003
Well Mount & Blade is finally out and you can buy your boxed copy here if it’s not already done
here in the US
Here in the UK
So here are two video I created to celebrate the release of the game!
Enjoy
Mount & Blade Cavalry vs 300 infantries
This is a video I posted a few days ago and I must say that it’s popularity is impressive and the response kinda overwhelming. So I guess I will clarify a few things about it.
This was recorded in the version 0.951, without any mods. Now many people tend to think it’s a mod because of the look of shields and armors. But in fact those really cool looking equipment are the usual stuff, it’s just that because I was a vassal, I was allow to choose my colors making all my equipment and soldiers look good. Now I think my sword was a Nord Sword and it was really bad from my point of view. I wasn’t use to it and wasn’t too good with it.
As for my polearm, my use of it on a horse was contextual, it’s not a weapons very good for horse fighting and is actually much more effective on foot, this is why i use it. In this battle I was fighting against factions that started a war against me and my rebellion. Since I had conquer nearly all the faction I was rebelling against, the other faction were interested to conquer my conquest. This is how i ended up fighting huge armies and battle where I gained 50 renown per round. I ultimately pulled back since 900 enemies was a little too much for my 82 soldiers and fighting 300 infantries armed with spear and pike was a bad mix with my mainly cavalry oriented army.
Assassin’s Creed The Citadel of Acre (Akko)
Here is how to climb The Citadel of Acre in Assassin’s Creed. It’s one of the annoying tower to climb in the game since it’s not the most easy to start to climb. As you can see sometime it also doesn’t work to well the first time depending how the game feel. For once I included the jump in the hay also call the Leap of Faith, where less then two meter of hay stop a fall from many, many, meter.
Mount&Blade
Video made from Mount&Blade. It’s a small game and doesn’t necessitate a good computer.
Assassin’s Creed Acre’s Church
This is a video from Assassin’s Creed Acre’s Church. In this video I show how to get up there and get down there in an realistic way. Of course you can alway jump down into a 1 m of Hay to stop your 10 stories high fall, but less risky.
Assassin’s Creed High Point Walktrough
Since Spartan is already doing a great job at showing the main story of the game, I will show some side quest objective, starting by how to climb some higher point in the game in order to make some reconnaissance of the area. Some place can be a little more challenging then others so i will limit myself to those few. So here is one of the really High point of the game in Damascus.
Assassins Creed Walkthrough
The next few episodes of the Assassins Creed walkthrough are up! Sorry for the delay. Check here to watch them in their awesomeness!
