The Desert Eagle, or Source engine mod Deagle as it is more commonly known as is the great equalizer. As a pistol, it is incredibly cheap. As a weapon, it is incredibly powerful. Very few weapons in Counter-Strike __ are capable of a one-shot kill. The Deagle is one of them. It is a workhorse if used well, capable of winning rounds by itself. However, miss your shot and you have no way to defend yourself. The Deagle rewards skilled players by allowing them the opportunity to win rounds they have no right winn
As for 2012, well, anyone who knows me well knows that I’m a Metro 2033 fanboy, so my most anticipated title is Metro: Last Light . I’m also a huge fan of Yakuza 3 meaning I’m stoked for Yakuza: Dead Souls , not to mention BioShock Infinite , Prey 2 , Alan Wake: Night Springs , Binary Domain , and Operation Raccoon City as my first Resident Evil game, not to mention I have a nice shiny PlayStation Vita First Edition bundle with my name on it. I also plan to play Mass Effect 3 but I’m trying to keep my hype meter low for that
Chinese zodiac dogs think the worst of the world around them, much like the protagonist of BioShock Infinite , Booker Dewitt. Booker does everything he can to protect Elizabeth, who he believes to be important to him. This loyalty is reminiscent of a Chinese zodiac dog. Exercising caution as you progress through BioShock Infinite will help to reach the end. Despite being someone who thinks the worst of the world, you are a likable per
While Wildermyth has received controller support, using a gamepad to play this game is nowhere near as intuitive as a mouse and keyboard. There’s a reason why this game constantly needs updates to make the controller more viable to play while the mouse and keyboard controls have remained fairly intact and preferred by m
Given the first-person viewpoint of this game, it’s easy to see why using a keyboard and mouse is optimal for players who employ guns. Of course, melee players don’t really need to do the same since they can just swing wildly in the vicinity of most enem
For many people, Counter-Strike is the most competitive and foremost first-person shooter. Despite Counter-Strike: Global Offensive releasing in 2012, Valve Corporation and Hidden Path Entertainment continually add sizeable updates to the game. The first Counter-Strike game released in the year 2000. Many changes have been made to improve CS: GO gameplay, but the fundamentals of Counter-Strike have stayed the same. Like its predecessors, players achieve objectives through two different game modes. Much of the game’s success is owed to its ingenious map des
No gun can shut down entire sections of a map or take over a game quite like the AWP can. The only gun that is able to one shot to the body, the AWP is expensive, but it is worth every dollar spent. Every team will have an AWPer whenever possible on both sides. The amount of map control the AWP provides is uncontestable. Enemy players need to know where the opposing AWPer is at all times and strategies need to be made to combat them. Peeking into an AWP without help is a near-death sente
The CTs’ weapon of choice, the M4A4 can do it all. It can hold its own in long-range firefights, wipe a rushing team in a single mag, and spam through smokes for what seems like an eternity, all while being fairly easy to use. If it had slightly higher damage, allowing it to one-shot armored opponents to the head, it would be the best weapon in the game. The M4A4 is one of the best weapons at dropping multiple enemies in a single spray thanks to its good mag size, damage, and recoil managem
December is relax time for me. It’s the first month in a while where I play games for fun instead of for review purposes. I plan to journey on in my restart of Skyrim on PC and make time to catch up on a large pile of games, including Saints Row: The Third, Battlefield 3 (PC) and Forza Motorsport 4 while making sure I begin Arkham City, Assassin’s Creed Revelations and Uncharte
With Black Friday over, I can now say that I’m looking forward to stabbing into Assassin’s Creed: Revelations and Rayman: Origins which I picked up during the holiday hustle. I’m also almost finished with my second play through of Deus Ex: Human Revolution which is showing me just how many different ways there are to go through that game. I’m also going to grind out some more trophies for Uncharted 3 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Reco
The Glock-18 is easily one of the most versatile weapons in CS:GO. The semi-automatic firing mode makes it feel like a run-of-the-mill pistol that serves the user well in medium to long-range shooto
It’s worth mentioning that not every player is a fan of Nuke. In fact, a large number of people in the CS: GO community hate the map with a passion. Nuke doesn’t have a lot of surprises now that CS: GO’ s developers removed the storage room at B. Everything is laid out very neatly, and there should be few surprises when playing Nuke. If you aren’t good with a sniper, you may not be a good Nuke player. Assault rifles are effective, but sniper rifles can get you easy uncontested ki
