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
Sliding has a key difference between the two games. In Source , there’s a slight sliding animation when landing that adds more momentum to Surfing. In contrast, CS:GO stops movement when landing complet
Due to this simple mechanic, Surf Maps often feature various ramps of increasing difficulty. And if players get bored enough, some Surf Maps feature combat elements that try to incorporate the map’s rather chaotic environm
The M9 Bayonet — not to be confused with the regular bayonet from earlier in this list — features the famous Crimson Web skin. The cosmetic gives the serrated knife a bright red coat of paint and black web marki
Players who want to train their Surfing techniques might want to try joining an offline surf map instead. However, players may need to do some manual adjustments to the game’s physics CS2 Pro Crosshair Settings in order to meet optimal surfing quality. In order to access offline maps, players need to do the follow
I’ll definitely be playing Minecraft now that it has officially released, Rob and I will probably do a few more recording sessions with the game. I’ll also be attempting to play through Gears of War 3 on ‘Insane’ difficulty in order to get those exclusive ‘Impossible Mission’ sk
Most people would even go as far as to say that The Elder Scrolls is a great keyboard and mouse learning game. If players have never tried the keyboard and mouse, and they’re itching to play a role-playing game, The Elder Scrolls is appealing. It doesn’t have too many key bindings to make it needlessly complica
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
Before I tear into 2012 titles like Alan Wake: Night Springs , Mass Effect 3 , BioShock: Infinite , SSX , and Borderlands 2 , it’s time for 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
As it stands the map is heavily CT-sided, especially at the casual level. While there are many options for the T-side to combat a lot of the strengths the CT-side has, many players have cited this to be difficult to execute outside of coordinated and disciplined teams. Meta changes since the map’s introduction have done little to change this leading to most matches feeling boring and predictable as to the outcome of the g
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
Who says Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is just about two teams shooting each other with guns outfitted with expensive skins? Surprisingly, outside competitive tournaments, Counter-Strike Global Offensive has quite a lot more to offer than just shooting baddies from the other team. To hardcore Counter-Strike fans, they’ll be delighted to know that the Surf Maps actually exist in CS:GO , and it’s quite easy to surf in t
While Code Vein might seem to have the market cornered when it comes to anime-tinged Dark Souls knockoffs, that’s just not the case. People are going to keep making these things despite not really understanding why Dark Souls works so well. People are also going to keep putting cherubic anime girls in games because it prints mo
While a gamepad provides an ideal level of comfort, a keyboard and mouse offer superior performance. Particular genres are better suited for a mouse because of its DPI (dots per square inch). This gives better precision for first-person shooters or any other game that has to target in an isometric v
