Hitman Contracts Review

Hitman Contracts is the second game from the Hitman Trilogy HD that I finished. Hitman Contracts is a bit shorter than Silent Assassin. I chose to play this game on Professional difficulty. The other thing I did different was the missions. This time I tried to get the Silent Assassin rating for every mission. This game offers more possibilities to complete a mission. Thanks to the many possibilities to a mission you can...

Rome Total War 2 Factions

Total War: Rome 2 contains a wide range of factions, each with their own specialty, background and political system. All of these cultures are different from each other: we've got barbarians, the men from the east, Romans, Punics, Egyptians, Greeks… All factions have their strengths and weaknesses and that's not all! Some factions have different playable families so players can decide how they play the game, for example: you could have a Roman family...

The new Xbox

Today there are some new Xbox specs leaked. The rumors say that the new Xbox will come in November.

If you don't want to pay too much for the console, you can buy a $299 version, but then you have to pay $10 a month to use it. How long you need to pay $10 isn't told.

Ratchet and Clank movie

Sony announced today that there will be a Ratchet and Clank movie. The movie will come in 2015. Of course it will be filled with good jokes which don't make any sense. I love the humor of the Ratchet and Clank series. All the game that I played from the Ratchet and Clank series have great humor. Sony says on their blog that this game is requested by the fans. The script is written by the writer who wrote the scripts for all the...

Let's Play Hitman Trilogy HD

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin is the first Hitman game I've ever played. Today I finished, much quicker than I thought. I played the game on Normal, so that must be the reason that I finished the game in three days. This game is so good, I love it! In the beginning my gameplay was terrible, I couldn't succeed in killing nobody and stay hidden. In Hitman it isn't necessary to play stealth. If you want to use your Machine Gun and kill every...

Hitman Trilogy HD

Tuesday I bought the Hitman Trilogy HD in the PlayStation Store. I bought this game because of the price, it was only ten euros. The Trilogy features Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Hitman: Contracts and Hitman: Blood Money. After I 'finished' Mass Effect 3, I started the Trilogy with Hitman 2: Silent Assassin. Hitman 2: Silent Assassin came out in 2002. The game starts in Italy. Hitman is at the beginning of Silent Assassin a gardener in...

Let's play Mass Effect 3 part 6

Finally I finished all side missions. The most of them were Citadel missions. The only thing I needed to do for them was launching a probe at the right place on the right planet. The N7 missions were very good, but a bit short. I started the Priority: Cerberus Headquarters mission, so from now on I can't access the Citadel anymore, sadly enough. The Citadel is a beautiful place with is very restful. Thanks to my weapons the big enemies,...

GTA V

Grand Theft Auto V, it's the biggest gaming hype at the moment. Nearly every gamer wants a copy of the new GTA, and I'm one of them. I've played all GTA III era and all GTA IV era games and they were all good. If you look at the difference between GTA San Andreas and GTA IV, you see that it is a huge step forward. The games came 4 years after each other. GTA V is coming 5 years later then GTA IV, so I think it's very good possible that...

Let's play Mass Effect 3 part 5

I'm still busy with Mass Effect 3. With the storyline I'm at approximately 75% and with the side mission I need to do about 10. The game isn't as difficult as it was in the beginning. Maybe that's because I found good tactics and have good weapons. Killing enemies is a lot easier now. With overload I destroy shields most of the time immediately. In my squad I have most of the time Garrus and Ashley. They have the same...

Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon

Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is the latest game in the Far Cry series. Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is an '80s styled cyber game. The game is playing in 2007. I think this game is what an '80s game would be if it's made in 2013. As you see at the picture right, it's still in Far Cry 3 style. The car is similar to the cars from Far Cry 3 and the helicopter also. The textures look also much like the textures from Far Cry 3. I think the game is technical...

Let's Play Mass Effect 3 part 4

Already part four of the Let's Play! I'm with the Priority missions halfway and with the side missions a bit further then halfway. I still love the game, it's so beautiful, good and balanced. But that will come in a review. I have a new assault rifle: the M-76 Revenant. What a beast! Perfect for killing extreme amounts of enemies. The gun fires at a high rate and deals many damage. It's full automatic, I like full automatic more then semi-automatic....

Trophies

Trophies or Achievements, every gamer knows them. Some of them love them, others don't care. I'm one of those lovers. I think trophy hunting adds an extra challenge to a game. To get all trophies in a game is for me an extra challenge. At this moment I got 554 trophies, whose 3 are platinum. I've got Sleeping Dogs Assassin's Creed 2 and Far Cry 3 at platinum. I always try to get all trophies, but it isn't a big success until now because...

Let's Play Mass Effect 3 part 3

I never liked science fiction and aliens very much. Until I started Mass Effect 3. This game is so cool, I keep playing it with very much fun. Today I downloaded the Mass Effect 3: Datapad app. From this app you can watch videos and pictures, read the codex, receive mail from characters and most important: you can manage the Galaxy Map. There are three missions per main theater. If you complete these missions you increase your readiness...

Let's Play Mass Effect 3 part 2

The last days I've been playing Mass Effect 3. I'm now a little further. I like the game very much. Insanity difficulty makes the game a great challenge. Sometimes I die five times on one point just because it's so difficult. But I don't care because it's huge fun to play some parts five times. While I'm replaying a part I also discover new tactics to use against specific enemies. Combat Engineers for example deploy and repair gun turrets. Gun...
