The AK-47 is an icon both inside and outside of the game, and is most definitely a fan favorite. It sells at a decent price point, is capable of one-shotting armored opponents with a solid strike to the head, and is incredibly accurate for those that have mastered tap-fir
In just one week, the LambdaGeneration social network has amassed 1,000 users – and that number is still growing. This includes fans, creators, developers, and the staff keeping the cogs whirring. The site fills a gap in the Valve community, something in between archaic forums and the more meme-heavy Reddit. There are pages for news, modding, fan art, films, music, and lore, letting you find whatever you want with ease. Otherwise, you can sort by trending, new, and top. There are user profiles, badges, and more, combining the best elements of different social media sites to create a Valve-centric juggernaut.
The greatest thing about the game was there are no shops and no need for a grind. To find weapons, you would have to look for chests or get them after a battle. Instead of an EXP system, your stats increase after major boss fights. And we all know the grind in RPGs. It’s the most boring thing you can do in a g
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 Counter-Strike remake 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
Practice makes perfect, as the sniper’s adage of “one shot, one kill” rings entirely true here. However, it fails to mention that missing that “one shot” can have catastrophic results. This bolt action rifle has a significant cooldown between shots that needs to be taken into account, but a skilled player can practically run-and-gun with this monster, proving unstoppable even in close-quart
The Counter-Terrorist answer to the SG 553, the AUG was also nerfed. It is no longer the best weapon available to the Counter-Terrorists, but it is still exceptional within its niche. The CTs objective is to hold and defend bomb sites, and few weapons are equipped to hold an angle as well as the AUG is. While the AUG may lack the one-shot kill potential of its Terrorist counterpart, the recoil pattern is significantly easier to learn and intuit
LambdaGeneration has now come full circle, returning to its website roots but with all the modern bells and whistles. “The concept for the new community platform is the same as the original website – it’s a place to share and discover Half-Life and Valve community content,” Alex says. “I’m not a writer or journalist, the original website ran on WordPress. But I was always open to other mediums, so – in my head – turning it into a social platform felt like a natural progression.

A former meta-defining weapon, the SG552 was nerfed , and for good reason. The Terrorist exclusive SG 553, or Krieg as it is known by many, was able to do everything an AK could do, but with a scope. Although the rifle is not a must-have weapon anymore, it is still a fantastic gun. It is an excellent weapon at holding angles, making it a beast in post-plant situations. It also is quite capable in longer-range engageme
Back from LucasArts glory days, Grim Fandango is probably the best example of a graphic adventure you can find. It was amazingly stylized and had an incredible plot which hooked you right from the beginning, and is probably one of the best examples of good writing in the videogame busin
The only thing I’m probably going to be playing during December is Skyrim … that ought to hold anyone over for at least a year. 2012: Max Payne 3 , Mass Effect 3, and BioShock: Infinite … all third entries in their respective series… this franchise thing is getting out of hand sometimes. Luckily, they’re all going to be good ga

Players who want an alternate take to the Call of Duty experience will love the F2P value that Warface offers. In Warface , players get to experience an assortment of game modes akin to a typical multiplayer FPS. They also get to choose among a variety of combat roles, each with unique abilities – such as healing, or replenishing ammo or shie
“The concept for LambdaGeneration was simple – we wanted to create a site that would share all of the amazing fan content the Half-Life and Valve community make,” Alex says.” At the time, most Valve fansites were focused on official news and there weren’t any news sites dedicated to things made by the community. I remember being frustrated seeing some really cool stuff scattered around various forums just going unnoticed, and I wanted to fix that.
