Playing Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China For The First Time

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Sun, 16 Aug 2015 12:43:00 -0400

So it took me months but I finally gave in and bought this game. I had been eyeing this game for a while now. I'm not really big on the Assassin's Creed series but this one I was interested in. I've only really played the first one halfway through. I bough the second game on a whim. So you could probably say I'm a little disenchanted from the series. I'm slowly pulling my way back into this realm of Assassin's Creed.

This game is different from all the others. You're not immersed in a big 3D world. Its more of a 2D theme. That didn't necessarily bother me that much though. I do like the fact that its in China. China has always be a mysterious destination to me. Its history is even far more interesting. I won't go too deep into the character and the plot. I just want you all to see some of my gameplay. Enjoy!

Just playin some GTA V. I wasn't doing any major missions in the game. Just thought it would be fun to go on a date with Amanda and play some tennis. It wasn't half bad. Check out the video. Subscribe to my YouTube channel.

Playing Kung Fury: Street Rage

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Sat, 15 Aug 2015 14:47:00 -0400

Played Kung Fury: Street Rage for the first time last night. Gotta say that it was worth the $2 bucks I spent on it. Kung Fury is strickly a beat'em up. There's a haphazard over the top story behind it but it doesn't really matter. The game is combo driven to up the game players score as much as possible. The more you connect the more bonuses you get. The more you miss the more bonuses you loose.

I am a little disappointed that this was not made to be a full on 2-D side scroller with a true plot. If there is then I haven't played it long enough. I played enough to score my personal best which was over 15,000 points last night. I even scored a handful of PlayStation trophies along the way. I really liked the theme of the game which really gave it the 80s cop movie feel. It definitely took me back to the days of the arcade where I never had any money to play. My dad never wanted to waste the money to allow me to indulge in the arcades. lol

The game has some unique and basic controls which is simply to punch and kick. That's it that's all. the left and right directional buttons allow you to make those moves. This is how you're able to move back and forth across the screen. There are characters that take one hit to kill, two hits, three and more. Your job is to make the best combo moves as possible without dying. You have three hearts. Once you've been hit three times you're down and out.

So far I like the game. I'll keep playing to improve my score. Take a look at my gameplay video from last night. If you like the game its available for Android, iOS, PC, and PS4

NBA 2K15 - Yakkem Trailer

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Mon, 25 Aug 2014 21:27:00 -0400

I'm really looking forward for this game to come out! I've been loving the NBA 2K series for the last 14 years. I just can't get enough. The series has really eclipsed the NBA Live series out of existence just about. I've really grown to love it and it just keeps on getting better and better. I buy this game religiously because the 2K Team really tries to make the game as real as possible. The latest next gen translations of the game were amazing especially on the PS4. NBA 2K14 is my everyday game just about. Can't wait to get 2K15 in a couple of months. Check out the latest trailer featuring Ernie, Shaq, and some really good game play.

Playing Dead: The Walking Dead Season 2 Episode 4 Review via IGN

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Sun, 10 Aug 2014 06:13:00 -0400

Spoiler Alert!! If you haven't played this episode or this game then you probably won't want to view this post. This past week I just recently finished playing episode 4 of Season 2's The Walking Dead game. Let me just say that a lot of exciting stuff happened in this one. Actually the last couple of episodes have been some great interesting play. The way they put together the plots is pretty exciting and keeps you wanting to play more. You have to make a lot of moralistic decisions about your course of actions with Clementine. She grows up a lot in this season.

Depending on how you play with her she really becomes the gel amongst the new group. I had to play it again to see if I got a different ending because it was cataclysmic! In this game you can make changes as you play but it doesn't change the story drastically. The story is pretty linear. Watch the review from IGN and couple of the game's developers as they talk about the events of episode 4, Amid Ruins.

Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain 30 Minute Gameplay via IGN

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Tue, 8 Jul 2014 00:56:00 -0400

The Metal Gear Solid series has been a big part of my gaming life. The series has been very strategic and manipulative with its gameplay over the years. It's probably the one series that I can constantly keep going back to play over and over again. I still remember doing speed runs on the first Metal Gear Solid game on the original PlayStation. This was before the motivation for earning Xbox 360 or PS3 trophies. That's how much love I had for it. And it didn't matter how many times I beat it I would play it over again and again. It was that great of a game.

I think this 5 installment of the MGS series is gonna even be that much bigger and better. I really can't wait until it comes out. I may not buy another game until I finish it. I heard it may even be endless with its open world aspect. I guess we'll soon see. Take a look at the 30 minute demo of the game via IGN.

Another 5 Reasons Why Videogames Are Actually Good For You via IGN

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Tue, 8 Jul 2014 00:29:00 -0400

Remember when your parents used to tell you that videogames were bad for you? Well now that has seemingly fallen by the wayside. Apparently videogames are actually good for you. You gotta think though a lot of thought went into creating these games to be challenging enough for the gamer. If all games were easy would you still play them? That's what your parents would like but this is not the case. The reason people play them is not because their just fun, its also because they make you think outside the box with transfers over to everyday real life. Take a look at the video from IGN.

First Look @ PlayStation Now Beta via Kotaku And IGN

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Mon, 7 Jul 2014 23:34:00 -0400

Ok so the PlayStation Now Beta is out and the first impression kind of leaves gamers a bit unimpressed for lack of a better word. I think the thing that really stands out is the pricing. the Pricing is that of actually going to the store and purchasing the specific game that you're attempting to play.

I mean $14.99 for 30 days? Really Sony? That's kind of bogus. You can buy that game right now for $7 at GameStop and always have it vs. paying that price every month. It should be once fixed price to play all the games like GameFly or Netflix. That greed in the company comes into play and messes everything up. That was my first turn off for me. Well after all it is in beta so the prices are subject to change.

The next thing that bothers me is the connectivity for PlayStation Now.

Apparently in the beta mode PlayStation Now no likey wireless connections. You can use them but they will not be the most beneficial even if you have a strong signal. A hard-lined connection is the most preferred at the moment. Also depending on how strong your connection is you may or may not notice lagging in the games which can also cause a decrease in the graphics of the game. Check out the videos from Kotaku & IGN.

inFamous: Second Son - First Light Stage Demo - E3 2014

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Wed, 11 Jun 2014 03:01:00 -0400

It looks like Sucker Punch is coming out with another inFamous game call First Light. First Light is a part of the inFamous: Second Son series which features a back story of the supporting character Fetch of the original Second Son game. I'm looking forward to playing this game and reviewing Fetch's story. If you remember in Second Son she had an issue with drugs in her past and lost her brother as well before being imprisoned by the DUP. So I'm guessing with will all lead up to her break out on the original game.

The game will be released in August on the PlayStation Store for $14.99. The game will be a standalone DLC where you will not need the Second Son game to play. However if you do have a copy of Second Son you will receive extra content. Check out the video from GameStop featuring Nate Fox, from Sucker Punch, and Laura Bailey, who plays the voice of Fetch. Good stuff.

Tonight's NBA Finals game had me hype, so much that I had to post something basketball, videogame, oriented. What a game the Spurs played. They all were tonight's real MVPs as Kevin Durant would say.

I will definitely have it in my hand on release day. 2K14 was supremely near perfect on the PS4 and I know it will only get better with NBA 2K15. Gamers flock to this game like bandwagon fans to the Miami Heat.

If you pre-order the game now you get the following:

METAL GEAR SOLID V: THE PHANTOM PAIN E3 Trailer

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Tue, 10 Jun 2014 02:19:00 -0400

Looks like Phantom Pain is going to be big, very big. I'm not just saying in game content but also as a matter of fact big. From the video the plot line looks kinda crazy. There's a lot going on there. Take a look.

New Mortal Kombat X Trailer Is Not For The Meek Or Weak Willed

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Wed, 4 Jun 2014 01:07:00 -0400

Man, the new Mortal Kombat X trailer is crazy fierce feature age old rivals Sub Zero and Scorpion. It's almost tough to watch. Gives us some insight as to what to watch out for in the upcoming game. Seems like there will be much more fluidity in the game as well as attention to detail in the characters. Looks like you can even fashion your own weapon from the environment around you. Ed Boon and his crew at NetherRealm seem to be stepping their game up. The game is set for release next year. Check out the trailer.

"Metal Gear Solid V" Special Interview

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Wed, 4 Jun 2014 00:31:00 -0400

I'm still kind of getting used to the fact that Kiefer Sutherland is playing Snake and not David Hayter as traditionally as it always has been. Kiefer is great don't get me wrong but after having someone play a character for so long you just kind of want things to just stay the same, as we always do. Which is why we keep reminiscing about the 80s, and our parents about the 60s, and their parents about the 40s. Nostalgia fascinates us especially when it comes to videogames. You always remember a favorite moment or theme in a game. David Hayter playing Snake was that for me and a lot of other MGS fans. But I guess in the end we all move otherwise there wouldn't be any nostalgia to look back and reminisce to.

Kiefer Sutherland is a good pick though. I mean he's Jack freakin' Bauer from 24, the TV Show, and possible movie. So why couldn't he play a great Snake? Not a bad start for him with the Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain games. Check out the video and see exactly how he became the pick for Snakes replacement.

Mario's New Mercedes-Benz GLA

noreply@blogger.com (Ben Obianozie) — Sat, 31 May 2014 11:48:00 -0400

This is some clever ad promotion for Nintendo and Mercedes-Benz. The two companies collaborated each promoting their individual products in one commercial. Nintendo is unveiling the new Go GLA DLC for Mario Kart 8 which will feature Mercedez-Benz's new baby, the GLA. Mercedez shows off the real thing in the commercial with a real life Mario! Maybe Mario is better off staying in the videogames. Take a look.
