The Series that was Good at the Start, but now it's in the bottom of the Pit.

If any one is a Star Wars fan and had a Play Station 2 when they were little, they would remember about the first Star Wars Battlefront. While the game was very limited, since there was only maps where you could play on the ground, and not in space. There would then be Star Wars Battlefront 2, which was also on the Play Station 2, Xbox 360, PlayStation Portable (PSP), etc. This had both space and land map's, while also having the player being able to use some of the hero classes, such as the Jedi and Sith.

Both of these games also have many mods created by the fan's. There would then be several other Battlefront type games on the PSP, which were Star Wars Battlefront Renegade Squadron and Star Wars Battlefront Elite Squadron.

Then there is the newest game, Star Wars Battlefront  which many fan's have been begging for. Once it was out, most people started to dislike it due  to the repetitive game play.

There is a fan game that is being announced called Star Wars Battlefront Galaxy in Turmoil, which has gotten the backing of Valve for distribution. The only possibility that the game would be cancelled is if Disney does a Cease & Desist.

Games in the Sports World

There's a major field of video games that may sometimes be underestimated- sports. Many sports games have sold tremendously, such as FIFA, Madden NFL, NBA, and even Wii Sports. Video games revolving around sports can be fun for someone who loves the sport, the players, or even just the action itself. If someone has an injury, playing can help them relieve their stress and make their recovery more enjoyable. The games can also help players see their field from all different types of viewpoints that they never actually get to see. Sports games can really sell, as FIFA 14 and 15 scored number one in the UK charts. If you haven't checked out any of these games, you really should to see if they'll be your new favorite.
 

Quantum Break blurs the line between television and gameplay, integrating the two into one seamless, uniquely immersive experience. Quantum Break weaves the cinematic action of intense gameplay with the tension and drama of scripted television, creating a world where each has a direct impact on the other. The game has been given a solid 8/10 by GameSpot and is definitely worth trying out.

Who want's to be in the Matrix?

At one point or another, some people would like to do thing's similar to the Matrix in a first person shooter, such as dodging bullets. What if there was an fps that did that in a certain way? That game would be Superhot.

While I haven't personally played it, I have seen some video's of other people playing it. While this is a first person shooter it actually differ's from other major fps titles such as Call of Duty. It's still the same concept, shoot the enemy to progress, but the catch is that the enemy moves only when you move.

This is amazing by itself, but another thing that is different in this game is that it includes physics and a way to see the path of every bullet, which are able to help the player determine where the bullet will go. From article's written about the game, it look's interesting, since the game makes you love it and sometimes hate it.

The most surprising thing is that this game was originally created for the 7 Day FPS Challenge, and with a limited budget. Superhot would later be properly approved by Valve for distribution, and is now available for Mac, PC, and Xbox One. 

Black Ops 1 Remastered to Xbox One

Call of Duty Black Ops 1 is finally back on XBOX one and is working as a game for backwards compatibility. Firstly, its important to note that the actual shooting, running, weapons and grenades, etc. all work flawlessly. The Call of Duty gun play is the most responsive in gaming. Period. But that itself is not enough. With games becoming more and more complex, exponentially adding variables to the overall experience, perfectly tuned shooting game play alone does not make a game fun. My feelings on this game are all over the place, but I still liked it a lot; as an overall experience, BOPs delivers a tense narrative, while sacrificing well-designed game play. This is due to one very large problem, made up of a bunch of little problems, in the actual foundation of the game: poor game play scripting.

Overwatch is Out Now!

       Overwatch is finally out now. The full game was released yesterday, May 24th. Fans compare it to Team Fortress, which is also a very popular and beloved classic. Overwatch seeks to give its players years of entertainment, and contains a high potential online multiplayer game mode.

       Overwatch is a first person multiplayer shooter created by Blizzard Entertainment. The game offers four different game modes, the first being Assault, in which the attacking team has to try to capture two point's while the defending team has to prevent them from capturing the point's. Escort has the attacking team try to take their VIP, or payload to the other side of the map, while the defending team has to prevent them from escorting their VIP or payload. The third mode is a combination of Assault and Escort, in which the attacking team has to capture point's before being able to move their objective. The final game mode is Control, in which both team's have to compete for a control point until one team get's it to 100%. 

       Overwatch offers a variety of activities and game modes, which make it very worth the price tag. I hope others are as excited as I am for this long awaited game.

Video Games... A good form of relaxation?

When you think of video games, you probably think of loud, action games that gamers can spend hours on. And spending hours in front of a television doesn't sound like the healthiest thing either. But what if that's not completely true? What if video games could actually calm your nerves or help you relax?
Games range from mobile, online, or your good old TV consoles. Games on your phones can really help you out with your nerves. They're distracting and convenient, so they can help if you're waiting for a phone call, or an interview, or anything else that can stress you out.
Have you ever played a game of online chess? Maybe not the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the words, "video games" but still something to play nonetheless. Chess can be incredibly relaxing and fun if you're feeling stressed. Other relaxing online games include Bejeweled (which is actually featured on many airplanes that include televisions), Sudoku, crossword puzzles, etc.
There are also many console games that are relaxing. According to inverse.com, the game Dear Esther includes a puzzle of getting lost in a beautiful landscape. It's relaxing, challenging, and fun for players. Another game includes Proteus, which is similar to Dear Esther but is more pixelated and takes place in a forest.
Of course, everybody is different but if you're struggling to find a way to relax and love video games, they may be perfect for you. Make sure to try different games and see what suits you best personally.
