Violating my base!
Aug 15th
Base raping! It’s a massive and very frustrating problem with Battlefield Bad Company 2, especially playing conquest and a map that I have particularly come to hate with a passion, Laguna Alta! If all the flags are in the enemies possession, then there’s only two words for it, your extremely @*!
It doesn’t matter what side your on, once the all the neutral bases are taken you can quickly find yourself pinned in because both main bases are nothing but poorly designed bottlenecks and every base raping whore will swoop down and participate in a mass turkey shoot! So you either, keep re-spawning and hope for the best or quit the game, which most do.
And why the +50 +10 head shot point accumulation in a main base? There should be no score for main base raping! Like in Battlefield 2, yes I’ve know I done it many times, back in my =B2K= clan days, but I would never use it to accumulate score and DICE, those Swedish legends shouldn’t allow it either. Hell I use to do it at the start of the game, on my own, like an action man! A hero, well that’s my excuse, like it or loath More >
Dam and blast!

So Operation Flashpoint Red River has just been announced! A sequel to last years somewhat rather notorious tactical shooter by race kings Codemasters. The past is the past, so we shall say. “Let bygones be bygones!”
The Dirt, Race Driver and F1: 2010 developers have a real uphill struggle to restore faith in a great deal of people and without focusing on the events of Dragon Rising and the £40 scars which are still smarting lets look at what Red River can offer. First of all we know that the game is due sometime in 2011 and the location for Codemasters second FPS outing is Tajikistan. A place steeped in bloody hard fought wars and mindless oppression. A rugged, mountainous country, with lush valleys to the north and south.

Is Bulletstorm the new Gears?
Jun 15th
Bulletstorm is a brand new IP from People Can Fly, the Polish developers behind Painkiller and the PC version of Gears of War. In Bulletstorm the ultimate words to describe it would be over the top carnage, it’s simply kill your enemies with skill and be rewarded, anything goes, especially a good size 10 steel toe capped boot to the gonads!
The game is being published by EA Games and is due out 22/2/2011.
The question is? Have People Can Fly and Epic Games created something so manic, beautiful and damn right entertaining that it may not only rival the Gears of War franchise, but may quite simply better it all over!
