Game Review: Saints Row The Third!

Hello men and women! How are you today???

Today I'll be writing a review of a very, very popular game called Saints Row The Third!

Saints Row game series are series of games that are very much alike Grand Theft Auto But in my opinion its much more fun.

Saints Row series are designed to be played in Co-Op, which makes the game instantly much better than GTA or any other sandbox game like it. In Saints Row games you can drive cars, pimp them up, drive boats and with some mods you can pimp them up as well, and you can also drive airplanes and pimp those up as well. With all that, another large plus that i love about Saints Row series is that it's all connected, and not like GTA. In Saints Row, you are a new member of the gang. By the end you become the leader of it. In Saint Row 2, you wake up in prison and then need to restore your gang's old reputation. And in Saints Row The Third you're stuck in a new city and you need to get rid of other gangs there. It's all connected and thus, the storyline is absolutely wonderful!

Another great feature is that there is a very rich customization in both characters and cars. You start off by some default clothes that you get when you chose your character's highness, and as soon as you do the first mission it shows you how to go to the shop to change your clothes into something better. And there are four different kinds of shop, so the fun is almost endless. Fun part is also that even thought you're a man you can still wear women clothing. I don't do that and I will never do that thought.

There is a large amount of various cars in Saints Row The Third, ranging from a golf cart all the way to cars that look like Lamborghini or any other modern very expensive car. The guy who drives this cart on the picture is ChocolateFace. Yea i didn't talk about him in a while, but we didn't really have the chance to play. My main character is on the picture above this text. The women behind him is my June. Yea, I know, she's hot.

In Saints Row The Third you're able to buy various shops, town buildings and houses to make profit of them. You pay them about 5 000$ on beginning and they give you about 500$ every in game day (which is every 30 minutes maybe, I'm not sure.)
If you buy gun store or dressing up store you even get a discount on all the items in that shop. If you buy airport you're even able to store your own airplanes and any other flying vehicles. The same thing goes with the boats.

Great thing about Saints Row The Third is that there is always a lot of things to do! Always! You can do main quest to see the great, wonderful storyline or you can do side quests to earn extra fame (level) and money. The side quests are also very fun! For example, destroy 250 000$ worth of  property with a tank or a helicopter. Who wouldn't love that kind of missions?
Or you can maybe drive around in cars, smash and kill other gangs, take their territory, steal cars and pimp them up!

Or maybe just explore stuff with your Co-Op partner! For example, June and I got an idea to steal an airplane, fly it to highest building, jump off the airplane, land on the building, look at Stillport and then jump off the building! It was very fun the first time we tried it, but I forgot to take screenshots.
So we decided to go again. And you can see what happened next on the screenshot beside this text!
Another thing that I almost forgot to mention are weapons. In Saints Row The Third there are a lot of different weapons that you get by either buying or grabbing off the floor from a dead person.

They also added a great melee weapon to this game. It's called the "The Penetrator". It is a long dildo that you use to kill everyone around yourself. It's very powerful indeed!
I would tell you some stuff about Saints Row The Third's story, but that would be spoiling and I really don't want to do that. But trust me, the story is great!






Pros:
- Beautiful graphic.
- Wonderful and very funny storyline.
- Very rich character customization.
- Very rich car customization.
- Has very fun Co-Op.
- A lot of different weapons.
- Whole Saints Row The Third series are connected!

Cons:
- A lot of lag in co-op mode while driving.
- Too many useless DLC's which should actually be in the game for free.
- Sometimes the game is too easy even if you play it on hard.


Well That's it about Saints Row The Third! I really enjoy this game and I really hope that i explained almost all the things that someone would wonder about it. Saints Row The Third is a Must get if you have a little bit bigger budget to spend!

Game Review: Mount & Blade: With Fire and Sword

Hello guys and girls! Today I will talk about a sandbox game called Mount & Blade.

Mount & Blade is a good sandbox, medieval time oriented game. In this awesome game, you are able to chose from various types of weapons and equipment that you will use to fight your enemy, loot cities, raid fortresses and kill other players!

You start off as an adventurer that, by accident, came across some trouble. You helped the french and thus you gained a gun and a horse. With it, you start your epic journey into the unknown!

I, of course, wanted to be a general of a big army that loots cities and villages. And of course, I did so! I started with 2 men from a mission, and as I kept getting money I kept on recruiting new mercenaries! And so, after a while i had over 40 men. But as i attacked a city I noticed that my 40 men are almost useless against the 120+ enemy units, hehe.

There are a lot of different types of weapons in this game, such as axes, swords, guns or arrows. It all depends on what kind of style of game do you want. Do you want to be in heavy armor, moving slow but dealing moderate damage with your sword, while being able to absorb a lot of damage with your armor, or you want to ride a horse around the mountain, wearing very easy armor and having a long, big damage dealing gun. Of course that everyone would chose the gun! But there's a drawback. Gun can have only up to 25 bullets per game, and thus, after 25 bullets you are almost useless.

As i stated before there are also a lot of various armors in this game. From old rags, all the way up to royal guard golden armor.
Money is rather easy to gain, but you spend it very fast as well. You need to pay your soldiers once a month for following you and aiding you in battles. They do not need much (my 40+ men wanted only 250 gold a month) but when you combine that, plus new recruits and then plus the new equipment you need and some food, you realize that you need more money then what you thought you need.

Multi-player is very, very fun as well! One server can hold a lot of people that battle against each other. There are various game modes available too. Two of my favorites are  Team Deathmatch and Siege mode. In Team Deathmatch you have a score number that you need to gain by killing other players to win, while in siege mode you need to kill everyone in the castle and take it over. The other side has an amount of time that they need to survive to be able to win.

Even thought this game's graphic is a bit outdated for the release dates time it's still very fun to play. I enjoy it a lot!
If you can't afford War of the Roses, this is definitely the great game that will make you satisfied!






Pros:
- NPC's move and battle by themselves.
- A lot of campaign options to make your fame and name grow.
- NPC's loot villages and cities around you. Even the villages that you gained quests from can be destroyed before you complete the quest.
- A lot of weapons and armors to chose from.
- Large multi-player battles.
- A lot of active multi-player servers and players.
- Great maps and game modes for multi-player.

Cons:
- A bit outdated graphic.
- Very hard aiming while on a horse.
- A lot of multi-player servers have made the game much easier then it should be.

With all that said, I really hope that you will look into it if you want to play a great medieval fighting game that doesn't require a lot of time, and is still very fun to play and is very enjoyable.
If you want, you can contact me over Steam to play a round or a few of them with me! I would love to, hehe.

Thank you, once again Paradox Interactive, for giving me a chance to play this awesome and very fun game!

Game Review: Magicka

Hello ladies and gents! Today I will review a new game, called Magicka!

Magicka is one very interesting and hard game. Before i started to play this game, I had very negative thoughts, because all screenshots look bad. And when i saw a gameplay on youtube, character's voices annoyed me. But as time passed, more and more of my clan members got this weird looking game. So I got interested into it!
So after talking to the game's dev after a while, she decided to give (Donate) Magicka to me for review! Thank you Ms Veronica!

As I said in the beginning of my post, this is one very hard but yet interesting game. Hard part is that you have 8 elements which you use and combine into special attacks. For example if you combine Fire and Lightning, you get a lightning that sets enemies on fire after they are done shaking. In case that you put fire on yourself by accident, you need to put water on yourself. If you, for example, get watered and you want to use lightning element, you will hurt yourself in stead of enemies. And thus, you need to set yourself on fire to dry off. Yea, I know, its very complicated but that makes this game so fun!

When i played single player, I barely managed to beat first three levels. And now, after over five hours of single player mode, I still didn't manage to pass fourth level. It is very hard. A lot of enemies come at me, and since i'm still new and don't know what combinations are the best, I die over and over again. And thus, i rage quit. I played this game with Syphio once and it was much easier and much more fun! It's always fun to kill your friends by accident, then revive them and kill them again on purpose! Or you can use "crash to desktop" spell on them. Sadly, this spell does not do what you think it does. In stead of crashing to desktop, it just simply kills them. Still very fun thought! But be careful, you can always crash yourself in stead of your friend!



Another great thing about this game is that you can combine spells and then, in stead of using them, you can put them into your sword / mace / wand / staff or which ever weapon is that you use! There are also combinations of spells that you can use to make shield of some element around yourself. For example, since I always use Cyber skin, I'm immune to lightning. In fact, it heals me in stead of harms! And thus, i like to make a lightning circle around myself, which hurts enemies a lot, while it heals me in case that I need to go back and hide!

Of course, in case that any of your friends that are not immune to lightning come close to the ring, they will instantly get burnt and thus, probably die. So be careful!


In Magicka player can chose between a lot of playable skins. Each skin having its own prons and cons. You can also buy game DLC's which add even more skins! I like skin "Cyber" since it makes me feel at home xP
Syphio on the other hand likes to use some ninja-looking one. Cyber skin makes you immune to lightning but it means that you can't get healed by natural "heal" skill. While ninja one makes you run fast, and teleport in case of danger. Very fun little skin.

Pros:
- Doesn't require strong PC to be played on full graphic.
- A lot of different skins and weapons.
- You are able to kill your friends and then revive them. They don't lose anything except the weapons, which they can still pick up from the place where they died.
- You can kill all the NPC's in game, even quest givers.

Cons:
- Lack of tutorial. (I would never know about spells on weapons without Syphio.)
- Very hard on single player.

Final Grade:    8 / 10.

All in all, I loved this simple looking yet very, very fun game to play. I guarantee that if you have friends to play with, you will play this game non-stop and you will laugh the whole time while playing. Definitely worth the money!

Thank you, once again, Paradox Interactive for giving me the chance to play this awesome game!

Real Life Updates

Hello readers!

I'm sorry about my short old post, I really didn't have the time to write. I was just about to go somewhere when i remembered "Awh fu**, i still didn't write anything on mah blog!"...
So yush, here's long one!

So yea, TLS didn't win on the Guns of Icarus Online tournament but we did have LOADS of fun! Our second ship in team had members of a clan called N7. They are awesome guys from USA who love to joke around. They all go to collage (i think) and they are gonna be game developers. Who knows, maybe they will be more famous then Valve in few years ;)
Anyway, on the tournament TLS had Pyramidion while N7 had a Squid, so we were very good setup. While Squid was fast enough to maneuver around targets, sting them every now and then, our Pyramidion was slow but very powerful. We were very good at the beginning of tournament, but then we went against Saint Rocket and Ergonomic Cog. They, you see, won the whole tournament. We actually had a chance. We were pretty good. I think they won 5:3 but I don't remember anymore. Maybe it was 5:4.

But yea, we were very sad over it. So now we had to push on the "Loser list" to win the whole tournament. It took like an hour for us to get in the match, and as soon as we got in we got a free win. Why? Enemy did not even come. they probably didn't know about "Loser list". So as happy as we were, we had to wait another hour to get into a new match. We thought we'll win, but we had a lot of errors and a lot of bugs so it was very obvious to us that we will lose.

After we lost, I told devs about all the errors. They didn't respond until it was too late thought, so we didn't have a rematch. But never mind! We had loads of fun and we do not regret any of it!
TLS and N7 will continue to make a good Guns of Icarus team, and we will win on the next tournament for sure!


Apart from this, our new clan member, Manatic, wanted to play LoL. I forbid him of it and i gave him an invite for Dota 2. Now he wants to play Dota 2 non stop. He, honestly, sucked more then anyone i have ever seen. But now, about 20 games later, he's pretty decent. He is still terrible and very unreliable but he will make it some day. Some day soon. I hope very soon thought, or i'll look like i'm a noob D:


So yea, that's it for now. You should all expect Magicka, Saints Row The Third, and Mount & Blade: Fire and Sword reviews coming up soon :)

Game review: Guns of Icarus Online

Hello people!
Today I am going to review a game which is currently in closed beta, and it is called Guns of Icarus Online!

Guns of Icarus is an MMO First person, flying ship shooter! Yes, that's right, its not an FPS, its a FSS! In this game, you are a pilot (or a crew member) of a ship in an apocalyptic steampunk future and your task is, currently, to kill the guys on the other side. There is "team red" and "team blue". Thing i like is that you can't really notice the difference between zeppelins, because they all look the same. You must either get really close to see a small, colored part on the baloon, or you must take your chances and shoot at the guy, hoping that he is not friendly.

There are three playable classes in the game. Captain, Gunner and Engineer. Captain, apparently, flies the ship. Gunner, apparently, shoots at other ships and has some boosts for guns (ship guns). Engineer, apparently (once again :P ) just runs over the whole ship and fixes any damage that they have taken during the fight. On one ship there is a crew of 3 men (or women) + the pilot.

Since the game is still in beta, It has very little people and very many bugs or glitches. From what I have been playing so far, these are prons and cons of the game.

Prons:
Coordination is very important in this game. Teamwork is a must!
Very nice graphic and effects.
Lots of different weapons and ships-to come.

Cons:
Since its still in beta, there are a lot of bugs.
Sometimes you get kicked out of the game and end up in the lobby.
Playing with random people might be very chalenging because you don't know if you can count on them.
For now, player base is very small so you might end up playing with the same people over and over again.

There is even a tournament already! It's called Thunderdunes, and the winners will receive collector's edition of the game, plus few outfits for your character!
Of course, I have bugged TLS members about it, so we decided to apply for it!
In the team, there will be Syphio as a pilot, and Merk, Tea and I will be engineers since we really don't need any gunner boosts. We are good as we are :D

I really hope that we will be at least good enough to end up between first three places, since I will write a big post about tournament as well. Also, sadly, Tournament is very late for Tea and me so it might be a small problem, but we will still do our best!



And last but not least, I have few Guns of Icarus beta keys left so i want to give everyone a chance of obtaining it! You have a chance to win one of 10, yes that's right, one of TEN keys for Guns of Icarus beta Online! If you want the key, comment why do you think that YOU should win the key, and tell me what do you think about my new reviewing way.
Remember, just like last time, you may post only once (include your email!) but if you subscribe you will get even bigger chance of winning! I will chose a winner randomly by random.org

Good luck to everyone and I hope that you enjoyed this review!
