Combat Arms - Online FPS Action

When I was at E for All on Oct. 3-5, I encountered a game that they had on display. I've honestly never heard of it, but it's a fairly new game, around 3 months old, launched on July 11, 2008.

Combat Arms is a "free" online war-inspired first-person shooter developed by Doobic Studios and published by Nexon.

The game is pretty damn intense and completely free. There are aspects of the game that you must pay for however, with NX cash, such as character models, certain weapons, name changes, etc in what is called the "Black Market".

Also, after each match, you earn GP(in-game currency) which can be used to purchase character/weapon customization and so on.

The gameplay is fast and a lot of fun. The graphics, because the game is free, aren't equal to Call of Duty 4 or Gears of War, but that shouldn't matter anyways.

There are 10 maps and four game modes:

• Elimination (Team Deathmatch)
• One Man Army (Deathmatch)
  
• Capture the Flag
• Search & Destroy

This is a great "pick up and play" type of game. Lots of great weapons and fast-paced action. I highly recommend Combat Arms to anyone who is a FPS fan. Get downloading now and see ya on the battlefield!

Bowser's Minions Have Something To Say

This video is so freakin' hilarious!

The "Master Chief Sucks at Halo" Series

I know these videos are over a year old, at least the first few are, but I can't help but think of how truly awesome they really are.

The creator, DigitalPh33r, is a real genius for creating these brilliant videos. They are hilarious. Don't know how the hell he did it, but what a great job!

I think my personal favorite is "Master Chief Sucks at Halo 3". Pure brilliance!

Here are the three videos in the series:

Master Chief Sucks at Halo


Master Chief Sucks at Halo 2


Master Chief Sucks at Halo 3

Finish the Fight... again?

Bungie finally announced the prequel campaign to Halo 3 called "Recon" at the Tokyo Game Show during the Microsoft Press Conference.

Master Chief is still "resting" somewhere in the universe, but because of that, a new hero must rise. There's little detail of what this new chapter holds, but I guess we'll have to wait until Fall 2009.

The new announcement trailer awaits:

The countdown begins...

...to one of the biggest Xbox 360 games of 2008, Gears of War 2! Less than one month away and the Horde will be able to run no longer.

Gears of War 2: 100,000 Kill Achievement

It's crazy... I know this is pretty late, but Seriously? Seriously 2.0 is a 100,000 kill achievement in Gears of War 2. That's five times of what it was(20,000 kills) in Gears of War. That's INSANITY! It'll take years! Well, maybe not years, but sure in hell will take long enough. Too long. I'd have to literally play the game 8 hours a day for at least 6 months before scoring that awesome achievement. Maybe I will, that's if I'm unemployed at the time, cause if I still have a job, it won't be happening anytime soon, or it will just take longer.

BUT, there is one good side of that achievement... killing Locust in Horde Mode counts(and every other mode), which makes things a lot easier. Probably easier killing Locust than it is killing actual players. lol.

Gears of War 2: Horde Mode Booth

Here's a screenshot I took of the Gears of War 2 booth, but just one screenshot. As soon as I took out my camera, they immediately told me they don't allow camera/video use, just like on Friday. I had to basically ask if I could step back, then take the screenshot, as long as it wasn't directly of the screens.

Besides, taking a picture or recording some gameplay of the game in action will not do the game justice; you have to experience the game full on to get the most out of it. It'll look really bad on YouTube anyways.
