Call Of Duty: World at War. Nazi and Japs really ain't enough!



As expected from the long awaited COD 5. It is really worth upgrading the card for.
There is no much different compared to the last COD. Where concrete buildings are now jungles and building rubble. Cut the crap, now I will go straight into the gameplay.
Tyreach applied the Look East Policy by adding Japs into the game.

Gameplay

Like the previous COD series, it still allows you to play few great factions of World War II.
You play Pvt. Miller from the Marines and Pvt. Dimitri Petrenko from the Soviet Union.
You'll start off with the US, which you are a sheep waiting to be slaughter until your comrades save your sorry ass.


Heads down.

The first thing you notice when you shoot the A.I, you will see their limbs flying all over. So, if you see a Japanese hopping around with one leg. It's normal.
Their Banzai charge can be repelled if you are quick enough to press V.
For the Marines' Campaign, I loved it in a good way and the bad way.

The good, the mission is very enjoyable. The Japs are surprisingly sneaky and coward.
They hide behind the grasses and suddenly BANZAI! , shooting you from tree top, and springing out from spider traps. It brings new sensation for the players.

Ready for Banzai Charge

The bad, I died infinite times. Usually, they took me by surprise from the back with their bayonets + Banzai Charge and pineapple bombardment if I tend to take cover too long.

Resulting, a very tense and frustrating gameplay moments on each campaign. Playing over and over again in the same scene, hearing the same line repetitively. Gosh!


You see what I mean?!

Two new weapons are added into the game, the flamethrower and the bayonets. The bayonets allows you stab the enemy in a more greater range compared to the knife. The flamethrower will burn your enemies and spreads fire all over the place. It tends to overheat too fast, a little bit too fast. MG-42 tends to overheats too. Which make the game even more realistic yet exciting.

The Marines' campaign offer a very tense sensation throughout the mission. You will be taken by surprise so many times until you are immune to it. While the Soviet Union campaign is very straightforward compared to the Marines.

For the Soviet mission, the Germans are far more easier than the Japanese. They are more straightforward and always tend to be far more less aggressive. Well, at least they don't charge at you.

Settings are mostly building and villages compared to the Marines, which are jungles and caves.
Woohoo! An urban warfare and a guerrilla warfare in one package.
Rejoice, you can ride tanks and play as a gunner in an military aircraft to shoot down zero fighters.

Fear not players, weapons are very nicely tune and thousands of variety to choose from.
Although I still shoot my comrades at the back to take some ammo. Hehe.

The finest masterpiece ever created in any COD series is the new level in this game called Nazi Zombies.

Nazis that you shot down from the game has come to live again and this time... they are not human. Tyreach developer's team manage to survive until stage 23.
LAN with four of your friends and try it out in the Coop mode.


URA!!!!

The gameplay is simple, survive with your four friends inside the house AS LONG AS YOU CAN. Earn as many points as you can by killing every zombie you see. Then, buy more powerful guns, barricade the windows, and unlock new areas around the house by the point you've earned. The zombie increase by numbers and gets more faster after each stage. Death is inevitable, just put up a hell of a fight.

I manage to get to stage 9 only by myself. =_=.

Multiplayer.

Nothing much has change compared to the last year Modern Warfare.
Challeges are still there, it is still very engaging and it is still a very deadly-fast-paced-game.
Asides from helicopter you will now get a group of attack dogs and tanks.
You still have addictive level up system and the hardest Challenge system in the game.
In other words, it is just COD 4, but with WWII guns and settings.
Ps. You can use Japs in MP gameplay.

Conclusion

The game delivers a very good SinglePlayer Campaign and as well as Multiplayer.
It still has outstanding graphics and not to mention that the voice casting is superbly done.
Bonus level are even more fun to play with friends.
Although this series does not differ from most of the COD predecessors. It is still a game to be own.
This game won the hearts of the players by a 9/10.

Call Of Duty 4 Review. Duty Calls.

Hell it's about time. With all the interesting issues circulating over the world. Infinity Ward finally got the message that World War 2 is history.

This is why it is called Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
The game focuses more on multiplayer compared to singleplayer campaign. Well, no more Europeans for you, Middle-eastern baby.

The Gameplay

Campaign

Basically, You have to stop someone from releasing nukes.
Unfortunately, the single player campaign is very short. You can expect yourself to shoot and sprint your way to the credits within 5 hours.
It does give you a sense of satisfaction as the quality and the moment of the game will make you tremble.

Captain Price has returned !!!

Jaw-dropping moments are inevitable in this series. Although it is a short game, you will still raid through buildings all over middle-east, sneaking past through an army and avoiding yourself from being squished by tanks, dress up like a bush and becoming a sniper stud.
Unfortunately, it is still too short for an average FPS but the audio voicing and graphics are very well done.
If you have beaten the game over and over again. It's time to go for...

Multiplayer
Most of the maps are taken from a portion of single player maps. The maps in this game are healthy and allows you to engage them in different style. The map varies from wide open spaces which sniper and assault rules the map to close-compact that emphasize on versatile and speed.

What is more addictive is you get to rank up if you play the game frequently. Rank Up allows you to unlock more guns, perks and an honorary title.

If you are bored of massacring players or the other way around. You can always complete Challenges.
Challenges are a list of stunts you must pull to complete it. You will get a nifty exp when completing each of them and some awesome accessories for each of your guns. Killing 2 birds with one stone.
They are called challenges for a reason so some are hard to complete.


I must get those before X'mas

What makes it even more cooler are the perks.
In other words, they are enhancement.
Most perks offer extra abilities towards the players itself.
If you want to be faster, the Extreme Conditioning perk will make you sprint longer.
While some affects the weapon like,
Steady aim, grants you more accuracy when you are shooting off hand.
Perks can be pretty nasty sometimes, some perks allows the killed player to pull the pineapple before they die.
While some of them just manage to reach the handgun and take a pretty good aim at you.
Nevertheless, this is what makes the game enjoyable.
Another addition is, if you are able to kill 3 enemies in a row without dying. You can deploy a radar that shows enemies' location in the minimap. Killing 5 will allows you to summon an aircraft that carpet bomb in your chosen area. While 7 kills, a chopper will arrive and buzzing around the map shooting your enemies in the air. Beware, the chopper can be brought down by enemies. Heh, and you thought it will be invincible.


From the darkness, I now summon thou, Chopper!

You have a few modes to choose from. The classical TDM style, FFA, Capture the Flag are all there. Lastly, you can change the game rules by setting into hardcore mode, where weapon are more deadlier or an old-school mode which you pick up guns and perks.

Conclusion

The single player mode is kinda disappointing. But it still provides a very enjoyable yet memorable moments.

The real killer is the multiplayer that this new series has to offer.
Graphics, audios and gameplay are absolutely excellent.
Tons of guns, accessories and perks to unlock.
Gameplays can be varied into different kinds.
It is the next best thing after Rainbow Six and Counter-Strike. It's a breakthrough.

What more I can say? Hell, my friend is been playing it for the past years and he still finds it the best damn thing.

Again, Fans or No Fans. It deserves a 5 out of 5.
Gamespot is 9.0/10

Gears of War Review. Gears Gearing Up!

Brought to you by Epic Games in 2007 Nov. This is one of the few games in the world you must own.

The sequel is already out, and I am still doing this review LoL. Anyways let's get started.
I would like to do it on newer games but it looks like my VGA does not allow. T_T.

Gears Of War is a 3rd person shooter that emphasizes on cover, tactics, and cooperation.
There is no way you can go Rambo in this game. A. I here are accurate, deadly and ugly.

E-Day (Emergence-Day)
It is time, that humans are almost in a brink of extinction in their own soils, Sera.
The Locust are the antagonist in this game. As they, live in underground and emerge from their hole anywhere they wish.
There are advanced creatures that uses weaponry and you will find them hellishly annoying as they popped up everywhere.
Fourteen Years after E-day
You play as Marcus Fenix, a former COG soldier that has been spending four years in prison. He joins back the military after Dominic Santiago successfully extracted him out of the prison.
Your mission is to obtained the resonator, a device that will allows the COG to map the Locust Tunnels.
Then, COG will launch a Lightmass bomb straight into the heart of the Locust forces.

GamePlay
Remember, everything is designed to be meant as a cover. A post, a mailbox, concretes, cars and so on.
As I said before this game heavily emphasizes on cover.
If you are new to this game. It may take some time to get the hang of it.

Duck, hide and shoot!

Your survival depends on how well you take cover. Shots can be made while taking cover.
You can either right-click to zoom-aim to have a more accurate shot but it reveals a part of your head which will prove sometimes fatal. Or you can just blind-fire from the cover without revealing yourself.
*note that blind fire will have more lower accuracy compared to zoom-aim.*
You can move from cover to cover. Which makes this game looks cool.

The second trick is quickly bring down an enemy.
In most shooters, there will always be reloading. This is the feature that makes Gears Of War enjoyable.
Reloading in Gears Of War is never the same compared to other shooters.
During the reload's process, there will be a scale with a mark below the weapon like this...


Notice the mark? If you hit the gray area, you will have a faster reload.
If you hit the white mark.....
You have performed an Action Reload. It grants you faster reloading time, increased firing rate and enhanced damage.
You will not gained any bonus if you do not press anything but pressing without hitting the gray or white areas will jam your weapon. Thus, making reload a little bit more longer.

Sometimes, the player are required to choose which way to go for some chapters of the game. Picking any of them is almost the same and it does not affect the ending. Well, you can always replay the game and choose another route right? No loss there.

This game allows players to play on Co-Op mode via Windows Live.
You can have 2 players playing at the same time for the Story Mode.

If a player is downed in co-op mode or Multiplayer. You can either save him or save yourself.
Well, if you choose to save him. You will have to get near him and help him up by pressing the action button.

The game's intense. There will always be more Locust surrounding you. You have to take them out quickly, aiming for the head is a necessity and looping a grenade to the emergence hole is a must. Fortunately, aiming for the knees and legs will immobilize the Locust, allowing you to downed them thus stomping them to the curb.

Eat Dirt!

You are surrounded by 3 major aspects in this game.
Death, dirt, and Locust.
Death is in the whole game, you never really met any survivors except for your squad. It's just Locust and the eerie surroundings. People have evacuated the city. So basically, you are alone with your squad and some Stranded.

Since everyone evacuated, all buildings are by far empty. Empty prisons, empty gardens, empty parliament and empty building. There is only dirt and dust. No sign of life in Sera anymore. It's like having an adventure on Forsaken Island.

Locust are your best friend, they keep you busy and entertain you for the rest of the game. Expect action in anytime and anyplace.

Later in the game, you will be able to command a squad. Although they are only a few simple commands. They still provide your squad from getting wipe off in a split second on higher difficulty.

How do you kill Locusts in an abandon civilization? One answer....

Weapons.

The weapons are awesome but it lacks on variety. You have an assault rifle, a sniper rifle,shotgun, pistols, unique grenades and a heavy weapon.
Now, is the trademark of the game. The chainsaw bayonet that attached to your standard Assault Rifle, the Lancer.

Hit the "F" button to rev your chainsaw, creating a vicious sound and click the fire button to cut your enemies into pieces.


Muaha-haha-Muaha-haha....DIE!!!

This is one kick ass weapon, it makes you feel like that you are far more superior than any Locusts for that short moment.
"The Hammer of Dawn."
HoD is a more tactical weapon that can only being used on certain conditions.
It fires a beam from the heavens exactly where you wanted it by holding the fire button long enough.
This makes it far more difficult to use. But anything that comes between the beam is reduced to ashes.
The weapon can only be use on certain scenarios. You can never really give us too much power.

Tenchu! Punishment from the Heaven.

Another weapon that I came across is the Torgue Bow.
This futuristic bow can perform an instant kill to the Locust infantry.
The Torgue Bow requires skills to kill.
The bow must be held long enough for the arrow to penetrate the enemy.
The arrow will penetrates the Locusts and blown them up to pieces after a few seconds.

And I thought I can shoot Locust to the balls for the first time.

Results
Overall, this is a game you must have.
The game has good storyline, sharp controls, rated M for Mature; bloody and brutal, a very good multiplayer gameplay and it has uber-xcelente~ graphics.
The game will eventually leaves you a feeling of satisfactions. And making you playing it over and over again.

The Downside of the game?
The variety of weapons. It still has a little bit lacking on choices of weapons.
And if you played Hardcore mode. You will be rip apart in a matter of seconds.
This game is a punishment to some players that are bad in shooting as the Locust are far more harder to die and you are more easier to be crush in hardcore difficulty.

But this game still provides very good entertainment, bloody experience, engaging storyline and multiple ways of finishing the game.

Gears Of War is arguably one of the most entertaining and enjoyable that will rock your gaming collections.

I do find the final boss' cutscene a little annoying. Veteran players should know what am I talking about. If dying multiple times doesn't get you. Maybe hearing the same lines over and over again will. XD

Gamespot reviews rate this 9/10 with Editor's Recommendation.
I personally gave it a 4.5/5.

Epic Games' games are worth getting!

Everything will be ok.

I figured it out that I needed much more readers on my blog.
So, I have made a decision.
I will be posting game reviews at Gamespot.
I want to really see how far I can go internationally.
I need more comments and opinions towards my post.
Frankly, the post comments are good but it is still not good enough. This is the most painful yet shortest way of improving.

I need more readership so people can judge my work. I am serious about being a Game Journalist. I don't want this to be another mere dream.
That is the only way I figured out I can improve. Although, it's painful. This is the only way.

My only request?
Root for me. Bear with me. If my one post really can't make it and you feel like commenting about it. Do not hesitate. Do yourself a favor. No! Do me a favor.

How do I feel?
Happy. Cause all of you guys rooted for me. Especially my GF.
Especially when I heard you are going to buy me a VGA as X'mas present. But, save the money, dear. You need it to get your own stuff.
And thanks to my friend for hearing me out and being honest.

So, feel free to drop by I've post a review on RA 3 for Gamespot Let's hope it turns out good or better.

Ziwen's Guide to Zombie Survival ver.2.0

*Available and Usable for KL Residence and Klang Valley areas only*
*This is not a serious post.*

It doesn't matter where you run or hide.
If there is the living, there is always the dead.
Imagine, for just one day. If the streets are crawling with zombies, you and/or your friends are the only survivors.
Maybe this guide will be a little bit of help.

Before we start, I need to brainwash you. Yep, throw away your current definitions for the walking dead especially the one in the current movies.

So, if your definition of zombie is depicted as freakishly fast or nimble. Scrap it.
If it talks or it knows how to turn the door knob. Forget it.
If it does have the ability to think. Scrap it.
So, Zombies from games like RE 4 and RE 5 is out.

This my friend, is a Zombie


1) Limping ankle. Yep, this is why Zombies can't run in the later stage. So, they limp. Never underestimate it's speed when it is on an early stage.

2) Busted knee. This is why zombie can't walk properly. They're disoriented.

3) Injured hands. Zombies never feel pain because they are dead. So, stay out of it's reach. Once it grabs you. It's bye bye.

4) White eye. Good news and Bad news. Good news is they can't see. Bad news, they can smell, they have extra sensitive hearings and they can sense body heat cause they are cold. Physics. heat transfer.

5) Super strong fingers. Did you know, if humans did not have a sense of touch it will make them super strong? I mean really, humans hold back 80 % of their strength because they are afraid. Now you know, if one of it grabs you and lands a bite......sign up for Adam's family.

Overall, most zombies have blood all over their mouth and shirts, disoriented necks and pale skin.

Now you know, how they look like....so the next step. Weapons.

Weapons.

Anything shorter than half of your arm is not advisable.
Kitchen knives are a big no no. Who are you going to hurt? A burglar? Bring them to cut something though.
Sticks, planks, steering locker and swords are good weapons.
And not to mention a flip chair.
Can sit and beat up someone depending on the situation. How convenient.
You don't have guns in Boleh-land. So...if you have one. Cherish it.
Guns are for desperate measurements. Sounds attracts them. Fire them only if you need to.
You don't need your car. Take out the batteries and run for it.
Aerosol is good.
Cooking oil is good. Pour it to the floor and watch the zombie falls one by one.
and stay calm. Loosen your head or lose your head. Choose.
* it is best not to engage them. Fleeing is always the best option.*

Types of Zombies you will find in MY-land

Lala-Zombies (Lazies)

If the apocalypse has gone for more than 3 days.
Sungei Wang and Times Square are crawling LaLa- zombies. Please don't get bitten.
The infected will have their hair change into extraordinary colors.
Their greatest fear is water and hair-shaver. Yes, the barber's personal friends. If they start attacking you. Turn on the shaver as they will stunned by the sound.
Do take note. The more colors they have, the more vain they are. This is the most pathetic types of zombies you will ever meet and without a doubt the most good looking ( depends on your taste)
*Gosh, they are even more annoying when they dead.*

Mata-zombies.

Instead of for the other zombie standard line, "brains...."
Theirs are "kopi....kopi..."
And you still think coins are useless in an Apocalypse!
Dropped a few coins and laugh your ass off as they can never touch their feet with their hands.
Cabut after that.

Rempit-Zombies. (RemRemzies)

Weird kinda zombie that resembles our MatRempit. With helmets on. And an ekzos pipe stuck on their bodies or any other significant motor parts.
Nothing special though. They still hanging out on KLCC and highways alot. On foot.

Lepak-Zombies

You will meet them normally wandering around the backdoor,the stairs, and the parking lot of a nearby supermarket. They don't any harm though. They socialize with their kind alot.
Just don't go piss them off. If you are walking down the stairs and stumble upon them. Take another route. If you get bit by them...nothing much really you just sit and socialize with them, thats all.

I found out that classicals music like Mozart, Beethoven, and etc. will chased them away. Coincidence?

Mamak-Zombies (Mamakbies)

If you ever see flour near the area never go there cause one of them should be waiting.
There are 2 types of Mamak-Zombies. The Teh-Tarik Zombie which it runs around and drinking teh-tarik. Roti- Zombie which they feed on flour more than human flesh. Baked flour are their favorites.

So if you get bitten, you will have symptopms like dark skins, craving for roti-canai, wants to drink teh-tarik. This post is getting more ridiculous. =_=
They are vegeterian. So, save your ammos.

PS. Do not ever steal their food and drinks. They will chase after you and make you into one of them.

DOTA- ZOMBIEs (Zotabies)

They lurks around CC area. If you are hiding in a cyber-cafe beware of this entity. They doesn't do much though. They just sit and DOTA with other DOTA Zombies.
Interesting enough, the dead plays better than living players. Maybe because they don't curse like a normal human does. Ethics of players. It doesn't matter anymore if you are dead.

They just need to dota. If you see they crawling around and starts to bite you, turn on the PC.
Then they will slowly walk towards the computer. A very complex type of zombies.

Discount-Zombies (Dizbies)

Mostly being seen during Mega -Sales period. These zombies walks faster than any other zombies. Most of them are females when they are alive. They behave like a normal human when there are special promotion. The more greater the promotion, the more faster and stronger they will get. If you walk into them without any price tag on your body. They will not hesitate to turn you into them. GG.

PS. They will not show any interest if you are expensive. Just take a price tag and tag yourself.

This the last one, good job on making this far. With all the wackiness around, I do not think you can tell anything anymore. SO might as well beware of.

I-Am-Not-A-Zombie (human)
They are definately not you everday zombies. But, they can be hostile or harmless, depending on which type you met. If they are hostile, kill them. If they are harmless, team-up with them at least you provide more target for the zombies to chew on.

This is the most ridicilous yet most enjoyable post I have ever written

Heroic Villains *Upgraded Version8

For every moment, there will be heroes and villains. Some villains will always live on our heart and some will always scares the shit out of us and some.... are so annoying but they will still make our day.

From the rising dead to an a computer A.I. This post will be about my Most Fav. Villain list of all times.


There is nothing behind me!


Tyrannosaurus - Rex.
Dino Crisis, tomb raider,Turok, Jurassic park ? lol
Playstation
Fav quote: T-rex cries

What is more fearsome than confronting a reptile with huge fangs and while you are low on ammo. What if you have full ammo, it is immune to bullets. =_=

In Dino Crisis, the T-Rex is very well known for it seismic effect it cause when it's walking.
And then the good ol' shout cries it releases. So, you have 2 choices. Waste ammo or Flee.

Devastatingly deadly and living up to it's expectations. Dino food will be served with you as the main dish if you get careless. No to mention it takes a lot of efforts to kill it. The T-Rex serve it purpose well keeping you preoccupied, stunned and busy. (stopping power) XD. It sure is the one of the best villain of all time. I wanna play Dino Crisis again. T_T


I wear make up, I am EMO


Cefca Pallazo or Kefka
Final Fantasy 6
SNES, Playstation.
Fav quote. MWAAHHAHAHAHA

And you all thought it was Sephiroth when it comes to FF series. How amusing. For the real hardcore fan like me, Kefka is a 100% master among bastards. He is evil, insane, and hateful towards existence itself.

As the Boss, he is punishingly difficult and frustrated. I loaded for maybe more than a 100 times.
And I beaten him out of pure luck. Damn.

Not only he is annoying, dispatching those Magitek Armors and summon monsters. His laughs still echoed in my eardrums. He poisoned the city rivers and killing everyone. Yes, the ultimate form of evil. Defeating him makes my day. He is a sad clown.



All Hail Britannia...opps I mean MGS 4



Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of The Patriots.
Liquid Ocelot
Playstation 3.
Fav. Quote : SNAKE !!

Booyah! One of the most memorable villain of all time. He loves war and afraid that warriors like him will be discarded if peace kicks in. Ocelot hopes that hatred brings more hatred, conflicts will be left unresolved.
Creating a new world which it will be a free world, without rules, without a system.
Heck, that is one helluva dream. He has all the traits of a villain. Persistent, sneaky, cunning, smart, he can put up a fight, super soldier.

A true masterpiece of villain. The fusion of evil and greater evil. This is the true villains that will really be somewhere in our heart. Superb Villain.

I think a video is better to prove he is such a badass.


Darlie Double Cross Action Toothpaste

Nemesis
Resident Evil series.
Playstation.
Fav quote: Stars...........
A total badass experiment that can rips of limbs. It runs, uses weapon, and never dies.
What is more horrific than shooting something it never dies. It chases you from map to map.
Just when you thought you were safe from the onslaught. It suddenly crashes through the windows and chokes the living hell out of you.

Nemesis vital points:
Instead of moaning like a drunkard zombie. It rushes and lunge a fist towards your face.
It is hideous.
It can shoot down a helicopter with it's rocket launcher.
Here are some memorable moments of fighting it.


You prefer horizontal or vertical? Or both?* Slashes*



Vergil
Devil May Cry 3
Fav quotes: .... none....
Playstation 2/ PC.

The evil twin brother of Dante and the sons of Sparda. Unlike any other villain, Virgil is very cool and can kick serious ass. He has always wanted more power. In the end, trying to kill his own brother and obtained the power of Sparda without regarding what happens to the human world.

Handsome, cool, wields a katana named Yamato.
Get the game, beat it and play as him. LoL. He is as tough as Dante though.




I'm blind not deaf.

Illidan Stormrage, The Betrayer.
Warcraft 3, WOW
PC.

He is one sad case.
Dumped by his beloved,Tyrande
Being imprisoned for 10,000 years,
Being discriminated by his own brother, Malfurion
Having someone which is annoying hunting you around for the rest of your life, Maive

It's like the whole world is against him. Hell, if I were him I will become a Villain too.
and A very powerful one indeed.



I will be twice the King my father was.

King Arthas Menethil
Warcraft 3, WOW: WOTLK
PC.

Driven by vengeance.
Arthas slayed his own people in his own hands rather than having them turning into the undead.
Driven by vengeance,
He chased his foe all the way to Northtrend and stumbles upon a cursed runeblade,Frostmourne.
Corrupted by the blade and driven by vengeance,
He successfully vanquished the undead force and sailed back to Lordaeron.
Corrupted by the blade,
He killed his father and allows the undead to overtake the city.

I shall always remember how innocent he was when he was a noble Paladin.




The gas mask is cool....

Psycho Mantis
Metal Gear Solid
Playstation/PC

This is one of the most classic gameplays that I have ever stumbles upon.
Before the boss fight. He will have a little chat with you.
Then he will displays his powers. Like,
reading your memory card, fucking with the TV screen, makes your controller vibrates. As a result, this is making it far more personal.
At first he puts up a rather difficult fight. Reading every movement you have while you are fighting him. Not until.....
You received a codec call, instructing you to remove your controller from Player 1 port and connects into the Player 2 port to defeat this guy.
Hideo Kojima is a genius!

Gotta get ready for a date. Until next time.

Of Guns and Weapons

After thousands of thoughts and ideas.
I have came out with a list of most powerful weapon I have ever encounter in a game.

Weapon are the most important aspect in any FPS games.
Crushing endless wave of enemies make you feel bloody good as if you are god.
In other words, the better the killing efficiency, the better the weapon gets.

There is no such thing as too much power. - Blizzard Producer.

So here is the list. Let the mayhem begins!.



Gears of War series.
The Lancer.

The Lancer is an automatic machine gun equipped with a Chainsaw.
It delivers a bloody yet nasty kill by chopping your enemies into bits with the chainsaw.
Not to mention, it owns in both medium range and short range encounters.
This is definitely one of the best weapon in terms of firepower and killing efficiency.
The let down is the ammo drains so fast when you are blind firing.
Accuracy of this weapon is not in the top-notch. If your enemies are on a further range it will be difficult to get a clear shot to the head or body.

I gave this mac-chain-gun a 7/10.

Half-life
Machine Gun

Used by me almost all the time when I play Half-life . This is not the gun you wanted to mess with.
Fast-fire rate, accurate shots and a very very deadly secondary weapon.
The secondary click, launches a grenade upon touch. Watch your enemies explodes into shreds. Nothing is better than taking out 3 to 4 enemies in 1 helluva shot.
Nothing is this simple.
The downside for this gun? 50 ammo per clip and 5 little grenades launcher for the win.
But, to kill in long range is still a pain. Not to mention, the firing rate is so fast that 50 ammo means nothing. You will be finding yourself reloading all the time.

But still it deserves an epic 8.5/10




Serious Sam.
The SBC Cannon.

Anyone that plays Sam sure will have seen this weapon. Chased by endless waves of foes?
Fear not. Hold the fire button longer and release it towards them with this baby.
Killing upon impact, leaving bones and meats all over. And then, it explodes. Killing all the nearby enemies.
This is a mini WMD. Effective both in Melee and long range.
The only let down of it is, it needs to be charged for few seconds before unleashing it's maximum potential. But, it is still a job well done. Never give us too much power.

The Cannon owns a respective 9/10.


CRYSIS
The Nanosuit.

Maximum Strength,Speed,Armor and Cloaking.
Strength grants you lesser recoil, higher jump and throws enemies for few feet away. Remember kids the second star to the right. XD
Believe me, it saves my arse alot of times from dire situation.
Armor mode, fortifies the suit's defense that allows you to take alot of shots without hurting.
The suits passively heals you and provide data about your missions, health status and weapons. Without the suit, you are just basically another soldier.
The only let down is the energy it consumes. Well, it is better than running towards the forest naked while facing an army of Koreans and Aliens.
Do I really need to do review on Cloaking? Geez. Oh yeah, your weapon cloaks as well. Doesn't it pawns?

10/10. Final decision. You will not be better off without the suit. Unless you are Rambo equiped with two MG-42s in both hands on steroids. Die* RATATATATATATATATA


Half-life 2
Gravity Gun

This gun wins in both originality and creativity.
I love this gun when it turns into the Super version. It makes you like walking killing machine that suck soldiers and throw them miles away.
Flipping cars, carrying explosive barrels, sucking unreachable weapons and solving puzzles.
Half-Life 2 uber physics engine unleashes this weapon to maximum potential anytime.
So?What is the score?
11/10.
It is basically over the par, why?
It brings the new meaning of FPS gaming. Name me a weapon that uses the surrounding against your enemies. None, I can assure. It can turn anything into a weapon. You can even kill something with bricks for god sake.
And no Ammo or energy requires.


Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare.
Knife ( Writer's speciality.)

OMFGZ a Ninja. Yes, a 1 hit kill for anything that comes in the way. Except for tanks.
It is more powerful than the chainsaw from Doom 3 and Serious Sam.
This is one of my favorite weapons in COD 4.
Well, I always have more than 5 knife kills average in 5 - 10 minutes games. Sprint, dodge bullets, and knife is one of my greatest combo in the game. XD. Not to brag, am I right Ah Yia? lol.
Although it is a pwnage weapon. It is very risky actually.
The after swing animation will leave your character unarmed for at least 1 second.
This is a huge disadvantage. I died most of the times if I miss my target.
Well since no much player can master it. This weapon only rate 7/10.

That's all for today folks. I have a great time writing this entry. Well, i will try to play more FPS games and reviews on it. Until next time. Bye.
