Players who’ve spent enough time in Counter-Strike Source and CS:GO have probably heard of the term bunnyhopping. Essentially, bunnyhopping involves jumping while strafing to get a slight speed boost that can give a considerable edge in close combat encount
Unsurprisingly, when Surf Maps steadily became popular in CS:GO , other older Surf fans compared some prominent elements from the Source variation and the CS:GO variation. In terms of overall differences, it seems Surfing in Source is much smoother given more customizable options. In terms of specif
Before I tear into 2012 titles like Alan Wake: Night Springs , Mass Effect 3 , BioShock: Infinite , SSX , and Borderlands 2 , it’s time for CS2 FPS Optimization me to play catch-up after a busy November of reviews. I managed to resist the pull of both Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 , though it will be a holiday miracle if I don’t end up caving this month and enlisting in one or the other military campaign. However, more importantly, I’m about to return to the hallowed halls of the assassins for Assassins’ Creed: Revelations . Desmond’s fourth trip into the Animus was one of my most anticipated titles of 2011 and I’m fully committed to becoming a master assassin – as well as collecting all the miscellaneous garbage Ubisoft has scattered around Constantinople. I’ve also got to clean-up some collectibles as well as pawn n00bs in a few of October/November’s biggest titles, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception and Gears of War 3 . That, and I’m going to dance my heart out in Dance Central 2 – and if high scores and smooth dance moves aren’t enough motivation, I’ve got a bet to
Flashbang is one of the utilities available in the game. When used, it instantly blinds anyone that is looking at it directly for a brief moment. Although it’s a very good tool and can be super effective when used properly, many players blind their teammates, including themselves, instead of blinding the opposing play
Both Half-Life and Half-Life 2 play better with a keyboard and mouse. While the controller is more comfortable, a mouse can have different DPI settings and extra buttons. A mouse can pinpoint locations easier, making it the best match for Half-L
There’s no denying that Dishonored can be played from start to end with a controller. However, the keyboard and mouse is simply more accurate and lets players carry out actions quickly and more efficien
Borderlands is best played with a keyboard and mouse. It is a first-person shooter that provides stellar accuracy with the keyboard and mouse combination. If it were a fighting or racing game, this discussion wouldn’t be happening in the first pl
Players can customize their gaming mouse buttons to intuitively use Mana moves. Most players can get through most of Diablo 3 using only a gaming mouse. The console version of Diablo 3 is playable, but the mouse and keyboard setup is way eas
The key is to communicate beforehand and alerting your teammates that you are going to flash. Flashing recklessly can be super dangerous, and more often than not, it will lead to you getting killed immediat
This one is for those that don’t want anything too flashy or distracting, as it’s an extremely stylish black bayonet with no intricate designs or patterns. In Field-Tested, the knife displays a few scratches, which give the weapon a more realistic l
December means three things for me: KOTOR , KOTOR 2 and The Old Republic, plus a possible co-op playthrough of Resistance 3 . I’m also hoping to catch up on some games I’ve missed such as Shadows of the Damned and Yakuza 4 , and this before I get to all of the games I bought off of Steam’s Fall S
The AWP’s little cousin, the SSG 08, or Scout rifle, is an excellent choice when doing a half buy or an eco round where you can’t afford an AWP. The Scout is extremely affordable and effective for its price point. It will one-shot anyone to the head and will do massive damage to the body, leveling the playing field for your teammates with bad guns. Capable of locking down long corridors or holding angles like the AWP, the Scout trades pure killing power for a more attractive price point and mobil
Despite not having a decent hold of a gun, many players tend to shoot continuously even when the entire spray is missing. Most of the bullets don’t connect, and in retaliation, the opposing player kills you immediately. Rather than spraying hastily and missing every shot, it’s better to shoot at a slower p
Essentially, Turning mid-air allows players to maintain momentum while being able to steer their way to another ramp. To do this, they need to find the right rhythm of pressing a strafe key and turning the crosshair in that direction. Here are things to consi
Who says there are no good games released in December? Mario Kart 7 , Nintendo’s latest entry into it’s iconic racing franchise is coming this year, and it’s coming to a 3DS. What better way to ignore family at those tedious holiday get togethers than by racing down Rainbow Road? Still not sold? Well maybe you should check out our Mario Kart 7 review to see why this is one of the 3DS’ hottest tit
