Battlefield 2

A while back in a time where there was no school I had bought a game called Battlefield 2, from what I had heard the best fps (first person shooter) out there. For those of you who don't know what Battlefield 2 is here is a quick briefing. Battlefield is a fps shooter modern warfare game, it allows for gamers to select a class i.e. Medic, assault, sniper and etc. It allows for a the closet thing to warfare that you can get out of a game expect for America's Army but this also allows for some fun.

Now when I bought this game I had just been playing the demo and thought damn this is fun and so went ahead to buy it. I played it a little, had some fun with the singleplayer but multiplayer was not for me because when I looked for servers the ping was way to high (at the time I didn't know the interface sucked so if you clicked on the server the real ping showed), so the game never landed on my play hardcore list for awhile until a little while ago. For some reason I wanted to play battlefield, no reason why just it called out to me which is freaky by its own right. Anyway I found out about the whole ping thing and have dived right into the multiplayer scene. I found this good server that is just fun to play on and good people play on it regularly, thats just hard to find these days. I went in and selected special ops as my first class, my favorite in sp (singleplayer), so I went off and in about 10 seconds I was shot and killed. of coarse I had to get revenge so I tried and again but swooped around and got the guy in the back. From there I later got onto a map which called for some snipering , so I picked up that class at first it was hard to kill something or at the very least shoot it. Playing on and started to get better and better until I was cooped up in small room with the entrance blocked by a claymore picking off guys from a flag they were trying to capture. At that point I knew I was doomed to play bf2. The other moment that also got me hooked was in a particularly violent game, I had been playing as special ops as the map was not meant for snipers, so I snuck up to hill with a fellow teammate, who unfortunately became bait for an unsuspecting trap for a guy trying to get a sniper position. The hill that the trap had happened on was also the site of the best sniping spot, so I kept running around the hill and letting them know that they should find another hill to shot from.

I must say the greatest thing about Battlefield 2 is the teamwork and cooperative play that goes on to win the game. Now all I haft to do is unlock that new sniper rifle and then the last thing you will hear is the sound of someone going woohoo.

Total War: Rome II

Total War: Rome II  So it took almost 2 years but I think I finally like this game. It's amazing to me because Rome Total War probably up there in most played game. The hours I have put into the game, and the nights spent trying to take over the known world are so many.  The memory of playing the demo for the first time sticks in my brain in the original game. Taking my force and attacking from the tress in a surprise maneuver just had me my teenager mind lost in a sea of tactics and battles. From that point it was nights spent avoiding homework going "just one more turn" as my armies marches across the classical world. There was something to a game that balanced a great real time war scenario with a simple yet fun turn based system that had you stuck once you started. Years went by, and more Total War games came out, but slowly they just stopped being the Total War games I loved. Looking at them I loved certain parts but the dark era of gunpowder nev...

Sins of a Solar Empire

Yep, the game I looked so forward to is finally out and its a massive...(in anticipation I decide to keep you waiting) amazing. This has been a game to wait for this year, and should win itself a few awards. From massive epic scale battles to easy but interesting empire management, the game is a killer. You start with one planet, but have the option of conquering solar systems of up to about 20 planets and even to a galaxy which can hold 5 solar systems. This means massive empires but no worries on to much micro management, the game has a simple yet still fun way of managing you empire from a side bar which shows all planets and everything inside them. With such a large area to make you empire and for it to keep fun this game will suck away all your free time. It being an rts you will find a hard time to find a place to stop. Trust me, I will try to play this game for only an hour and then 4 hours later and probably some sort of social event gone by, I am still playing and conquering ...

A new Sheriff in town

Hey Folks, won't even go into how long it has been but as tradition, a new gaming machine means a new blog post. Normally I would post if I had upgraded my main computer with something amazing. However my old 2010 iMac is still a beast so I have yet to need to do anything with it. In the mean time Macbook Air and a Macbook Pro have done well to fill any other voids I might have. This being said today I got probably the first time, a fully operational gaming machine. It is not like a  typical gaming machine however. I don't have a huge case, or 2 GPU with i7 whatever in it. Instead i got an Alienware Alpha. This thing takes up less space then a Xbox, or PS4 yet punches even harder. It has a 2 GB Nvidia card in it paired with 8 GB of Ram, and a 250 SSD. It only has a i3 processor but this is a machine meant for games. It is not meant to destroy frame rates, or edit movies however compared to the 2010 1 GB ATI card in my iMac it can beat the pants off of it for sure. I have yet ...
