Minecraft Server!

We have all started Minecraft again! Whoo! Yes, we have all started playing on the server which is being hoster by HaloSophie, because she is awesome like that! We were resetting the worlds, trying to find a moderately decent one we could all start building in, after a few resets, we cam across the PERFECT server, even the spawning area just look amazing. So obviously we decided to keep it and start building again! 


Below is a video of a few screen shots of how the world is looking so far! Also a bit of TNT fun where a few of us were killed despite how far away we were!









Well there we are, I hope you enjoyed the videos! Might get some more up soon! :D

As always, Happy Gaming!

New Games + Future News About My Blog :)

Heya guys and to who ever maybe reading this. It has been too long of a while since I last wrote something on this blog and it's about time I did something about this. This blog won't be talking about a certain game as such but more just general speaking about what I've been playing lately, probably do full posts on them again soon or something! 

Resident Evil 5

Took a while to get used to the controls again, but after a short while, got back into the swing of the whole RE feel and got going with the game. I do think this game is one of the most underrated in the series, if you've played the previous ones and have not yet played this one, take my word for it that this game is definately worth a play through, especially the multi-player element to it, so much fun . Expect a full post about this soon.

Fallout 3 + New Vegas

Great games, both of them seriously. Bought them both again for the Xbox 360, my PC is not too great at playing these games due to my crap graphics card. Got them for really good prices as well, I can really have a good few play through on both of these games due to how amazingly fun they can be. I got an idea in mind for New Vegas and the blog, refer to future updates to see what I'm on about.

Dragon Age: Origins

Had this game for nearly two years and didn't really bother much with it at all until quite recently. Decided I really needed to play through it and see what the big fuss was about and by holy mother my mind was blown. Such an amazing game in terms of every element to it, definitely expect a post about this soon. Need to hammer the DLC first before I consider buying the second one. Heard good things about that one as well :)

Future Updates

Well summer is getting closer and closer each day and college is soon coming to an end. With this I'll definitely have more time to proper get blogging again and hopefully have enough money just to buy a crap load of random games and start writing reviews on them. So below is a little check list of things I wish to have done before summer comes:

- More blog posts about old games and recent games

- Acquire more followers from somewhere 

- Get a new blog design up, sick of seeing grey tbh

- Get zombie story part 3 up and going ASAP

- Start blogging some concepts for game ideas

- Add features to make the blog more interesting/interactive

- Try not to bore the shit out of followers/readers

So there's my list, if anyone has any other ideas of what I could add or mention if I've missed something, either comment here or send me a message or whatever, messenger pigeons/owls, whatever takes your fancy I suppose.

Okay last thing which I would appreciate some thoughts back on if you could. Inspired by PC gamers Minecraft 30 day diary, I was thinking about doing a Fallout: New Vegas Hardcore Mode diary, where I put up a new blog/blog page and use it as a diary for my character, but write the diary out as if I am the character. I thought this might have been a new and fun way of playing the game, not sure about what the rules should be, maybe you could suggest a few, but I have one down so far which is going to be hard, but I think I could do it, one life only. I die and that is the end of the diary.

Thoughts and comments are appreciated :) 
Until next time then!
Happy Gaming, Daz-Noob

Singularity...

Heya guys. I am back with another nice blog post about some gaming I have done recently. Just a quick word, I hope you are all still enjoying the reads and all that, the comments, thoughts, content, just tell me if anything needs doing or anything needs the improvement :)

And please share with your friends and subscribe to the blog! :) Anyways, on to the blog...

Singularity

....The game is amazing. Haha. Sorry, I just had to say that. Okay, walking through Manchester, notice this game, read the blurb, want. I found this game for a really good price and thought instantly I am getting this game, it sounds awesome, looks awesome, and for such an awesome price, I just couldn't leave this game in the city. I played this game after a few days of buying, due to playing other games with friends, and I thought it's about time to actually play this game properly, sadly I chose this to play this game when the girlfriend was over. Why sadly? I was hooked at first, then I was grappled until this game got me into submission. 

Singularity, you play through multiple objectives, with multiple devices killing multiple enemies. "Aww, but I have played this before...!" "Did I mention time manipulation?" That's right, this game allows the use of time manipulation, which I feel if they did not involve with the combat as much as they did, this game would not have been even worth distributing! The use of time manipulation within this game is amazing, from directing your own bullets to controlling a projectile fired at YOU back to your enemy! It just adds a huge element of awesome to a FPS which I personally has been missing from this genre for a while. This game is just so action packed with so many different elements, using different ways to destroy your enemy or mutant, or figuring out how to come across a puzzle, this game is just so fulfilling in terms of FPS.

The multi-player...I am not a  massive fan of, if you are looking to buy this game for the online experience, I would definitely not recommend buying this game then.The MP is definitely a massive downfall of this game, there seems to be a few maps, with a choice of 2 game modes which is highly disappointing. The ranking system of the game seems to have no point to it at all, apart from you can see who has been either playing the game a really long time or who is really good at the game, apart from that I cannot see any point at all for it. Nicely though you are able to choose your different characters which each have their own unique abilities, as well as choosing their weapons and perks.

It has been stated that this game has not been to be massively story orientated, but I feel the story in the game is enough to satisfy the player enough along with all the action in the game. It is not massively in depth but it is a story and a good one at that,. it is imaginative and believable, no stupid bullshit that comes out. One thing that did surprise me most about this game is the ending...Good, bad? I will let you see, if you decide to buy the game! My own opinion, buy the game if you find it anywhere cheap, don't buy it for £40, it's not worth that much, but any less than £30, then I would recommend.
