Dead Space 3 Info
Recent gameplay footage of Dead Space 3 has been released by Visceral Games, the team behind the Dead Space series, and it's looking to be the most exhilarating gameplay footage yet. The developers have managed to capture amazing scenes within a dark abandoned spaceship, relying on the weak light emitting from Isaac's suit and the inconsistent eerie background noises to create an atmosphere that's bound to get you on the edge of your seat.
The realistic body animations and interactions within the hazardous ship innards make it feel more than a video game, putting you right into an experience equivalent to a bid-budget horror movie. For the

Hey all welcome back to my seventh and most likely last post along my Minecraft journey! Last week I said that I had started a new world with more friends, but because this may be my last blog post about my Minecraft journey, I decided that it would be better just to rehash some of my favorite moments from the original game.
If you have been following my blog you would know that I had a lofty list of goals at the beginning that I never really achieved because I was either too dumb or too screwed to do them, but let's take a look at some of my finest achievements!
I'm a winner...
My first achievement that I was most proud of in the game was building my first

Black Ops 2 Combat Training Info
Unbelievably there are still some gamers who will play through the campaigns, but will avoid the multiplayer aspects, and for Call of Duty, the multiplayer is one of the biggest attractions to the game. It comes to no surprise then that Treyarch have put a lot of effort into encouraging those players into the online experience.
The first of those is going to be the inclusion of a competitive combat training mode experience, allowing players to level up to level 10 by fighting in groups against other similarly leveled players and AI. Once at level 10, this game mode becomes locked out, but players of any level can still

How do they stack up:
Dead or Alive 5 vs Tekken Tag Tournament 2Dead or Alive 5 and TTT2 are both great games, and both the DOA and Tekken franchises have been going on for a long time now, so when it comes to comparing the two, it's hard to say one is better than the other. Both games have different play styles, which means both may be as equally great in their own ways, but you may find yourself leaning towards one game more than the other for various reasons, so I'll try to round up a few comparisons to help you out.
Environments
Both games include incredible graphics, and stunning arena visuals, but the fact that DOA's stages -

Assassin's Creed 3 Info
We all know the basis of Assassins Creed, and as the franchise grows, the same features we've seen in every game will come back again and again, but what will make the 5th game in the series any different, and what will give us enough excitement to follow the story even further?
The combat mechanics in the new game aren't going to change much from its predecessors, which makes sense since the controls have been smooth enough since the beginning, but as Assassins Creed 3 is set a little closer to home in regards to history, we'll often come across many weapons in the game that require a little change of tactics,

Halo 4 Info
The flood have become a very iconic race in the Halo series, and from every game since launch there has been at least a small reference to the parasitic species.
It's been known for a while that we won't be seeing the flood in the Halo 4 campaign, but new gameplay reveals the ability to play as the flood creatures in the newly buffed infection game mode.
Infection starts off with a group of players fighting against a predefined number of 'infected' players. In previous games the infected usually wielded an energy sword and had different health stats depending on the game variant. In Halo 4, when a player gets killed by the infected,

Dead or Alive 5 Character Info
The fifth game in the fighting franchise, Dead or Alive 5 was released not too far back and although most fighting games lack story, the team at Tecmo have done a great job at portraying all of the character's personal tales within the base story of the game itself, giving players many reasons to choose their favorite fighting characters besides their 'profiles.'
So who have we gotten in the fifth installment to the main franchise?
Dead or Alive 5 includes 24 characters, many of which have been included in previous games. These will include the 20 starter characters listed below:
Brad Wong, Ayane, Bass, Bayman, Christie, Eliot, Hayate,
