Impulse and upcoming games
After recently buying Sins of a Solar Empire: Trinity, I have been using Impulse just to mainly browse games, watch trailers and to load up SoSE. It is pretty unique, and the ImpulseTV is actually very good. You scroll left or right, select a game and your shown gameplay of the game with commentary. [...]
Xenonaughts: UFO: Enemy Unknown true sucessor?
Bring back memories? It certainly does for me. This was one of my favourite PS1 game when I a kid. I spent alot of my summer playing this game and being completely consumed by the depth of gameplay and content. Many games have tried to re-create the X-Com serise to various success, but never capturing [...]
Nvidia 275.33 driver review (Shogun 2 benchmarks)
Nvidia released the 275.33 driver yesterday, with the normal various game improvements and a new automatic game profile updater. Time is a huge obstacle to the quality of my posts, so while unfortunately I cant go into detail about the new driver, but I can at least throw a few benchmarks at it. The 275.33 [...]
Dead Island video short analysis
I remember seeing this in some gaming magazine ages ago, and then hearing it being axed at some point in 2010. It is now back and being developed by Techland, and is looking very good. It definitely looks like a decent zombie-horror-survival game, with some scenes in the video looking very atmospheric. The whole [...]
Black Prophecy Review/ first impression
I have been playing BP (Black Prophecy) for the last week and a half. It is a free to play space MMO. If you ever played Freelancer, X3, or X-Wing, you have a game like BP. You use your mouse to look and direct your ship, left mouse button to fire, and w,s,a,d to [...]
Live Streaming for May
From now till the the middle of May, I will be streaming Black Prophecy. It is a free to play sci-fi MMO. You use the mouse and keyboard to directly control your ship, fly around and blow stuff up. It has only been released in the past few weeks, so its lacking in content, but [...]
Section 8: Prejudice Review for PC
While browsing the Steam store for an impulse buy, I came across Section 8: Prejudice. I never played the first one, and normally these kind of games do not interest me at all. After checking the game out on a few forums, it seems for 13 euro, its a pretty good game (or at least [...]
What’s new for May? New CPU, new games.
I stopped playing Shogun 2 after reading the eta for the patch being the beginning of May. I bought Arma II: Operation Arrowhead for the singleplayer campaign, and got sucked into the multiplayer (of which I highly recommend if you want a real military simulator experience). I also stopped streaming. My i3 530 @ 4.0GHz [...]
Shogun 2: TW Tokugawa legendary campaign
After completing my Oda campaign on Hard, I wanted a new campaign somewhere else on the map, or at least try and play the game differently from my Oda campaign. Leading the Oda was alot of fun, with massive Ashigaru armies always expanding my clan’s territory out of necessity rather then aggressive expansion. It [...]
Total War: Shogun 2 live stream this week
On Wednesday 16th of March I will be streaming Total War: Shogun 2 from 11am to 8pm. It will be a good opportunity to see the game properly before you buy. I have played the game about an hour and so far its pretty amazing. Hopefully by the end of the stream we will [...]
Kai Honsou’s live gaming channel
I am now streaming everything I play. Streaming games makes them more enjoyable when you are sharing the experience with other people. Right now, I have been streaming Mount and Blade:Warband. It is extremely addictive and I would recommend it to anyone after a realistic medieval fantasy kingdom building game. There is so much content [...]
