XBLIG Jump’n Bounce Review

Leave a comment

Jump’n Bounce is an indie retro arcade platformer available for purchase at your local xbox marketplace. The main objective of the game is simple: jump and bounce your way to the finishing point. Of course along the way there are things such as bonus points, lives and so on but you can simply ignore them should you simply want to win. It is a rather simple game (in terms of the idea and concept) with simple retro graphics, but the fun is still there. Simplicity is beauty isn’t it. Continue reading →

PC Fifa 11 Demo Impressions

Leave a comment

It is the time of the year again, the time when gamers who love the beautiful sport of football get to enjoy both the sport itself in a virtual gaming context. Yes, the release of the next Fifa game by EA Sports is just round the corner. Year after year since 2007, EA Sports have effectively tweaked and refined the gameplay and graphics of the Fifa video game franchise, raising the bar each time it releases a new title. However, this wasn’t the case for PC gamers. PC gamers were simply treated to the same old disgusting gameplay and boring graphics repackaged into the new boxes time and again. Next-gen was the cries of the gamers, the PC couldn’t support the engine was the supposed reason by the developers. The PC is less powerful than the consoles? I highly doubt so. I believe it is just a mere excuse for laziness or simply them not wanting to invest in the PC market. This time round, things are about to change. Fifa 11 PC version is about to hop onto the next-gen engine console gamers have enjoyed for the past 2 to 3 years. This is it. Continue reading →

Guild Wars 2 Manifesto

Guild Wars 2 is looking real good so far. From the game trailers to the gameplay demonstration, developer diaries write-ups so on and so forth, the game sounds/looks/feels like it is going to be a blast. I’m really all hyped up over this game already.

Real Life Aimbot

Video Leave a comment

If you’ve played First-Person Shooter (FPS) games online you will definitely know what an aimbot is. Yes, those bloody aimbotters who simply miraculously perform headshots every single time within the blink of the eye. An aimbot is basically a type of game bot or rather program/hack that helps the user to aim according to settings. I first came into contact with such cheaters in the popular FPS Counter Strike. It is widely used then by cheaters but since the introduction of anti-hack measures it died down by quite a bit. It is awesome and extremely dangerous at the same time should there be such a function in real life. Hit the jump for the real life demonstration of how an aimbotter rolls. Continue reading →
