Little Big Planet series Review and LBP PS Vita release date!

The PS3 only Little Big Planet is a fun game for all ages. In the LBP story line you are a little sack boy making your way through mythical worlds and over coming challenges. Even though your sackboy only have 3 controls (move, grab and jump) this game is still incredibly fun. in the campaign you do stuff like drive cars, swing from trees, dodge bombs, run from fire and much more.Also you can customize the outfit of your sackboy to be almost anything. From a rockstar to a giant carrot and even a sackgirl! The costume combos are endless! There is also a create mode where you can create your own levels using many different resources seen through the game. You can also use different tools to make object do many things such as spawn more of that object or make objects turn(for car wheels). The possibilities are endless! There is also an online mode where you can play campaign missions together with friends and also online people can post there own levels that they have created. As i said before you can create almost anything. People have created stuff like: sharks, snowboards, cars, planes, jetpacks and much much more in there levels. With the newer release of LBP 2 even more levels and items were brought into the game. New stuff in LBP 2 was the bounce pads which allow you to jump higher, the grappling hook which allows you to grapple on to anything made of a certain material and the helmet launch which launches a certain item. Adding just a few more of these simple items and the possibilities for levels are even greater! you can make almost everything and anything you think of. I rank this game a 5/5. Mainly a perfect score because this game is genius original and is fun for all ages. You may think this game sounds childish but once you`ve tried it no matter your age you will most likely like it. Also for you PS Vita players out there LBP for PS Vita is to be released later this year :).

Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty Review and Expansion packs release dates!

Blizzard Entertainment started their award-winning series in 1998 with the first release of their thrilling strategy game; Starcraft. Starcraft is based in the 26th century in a different part of The Milky Way where 3 major races are battling it out to claim all the planets. The Terran, Protoss and Zerg races have many different units and abilities than each other. In the return of Starcraft 2 in 2010 the story line has evolved from just fending off the zerg and protoss armies in the original Starcraft. In Starcraft 2 you are a Terran rebel named Jim Raynor that is against the rising power of the Dominion that is run by Mengsk. The Dominion controls the rest of the Terran race(which are humans) except for Raynor and his band of rebels. Most of the campaign you and your rebels defeat different parts of the Dominion and free civilians. Aside from the campaign though Starcraft 2 has had a online aspect added to it along with a brand new map editor to help design more complex maps. There are now custom games designed by other Starcraft players and not by Blizzard Entertainment to give players new game modes and always new games and styles of games to play. Now there are Tug of War, Tower Defense, RPG, Survival and many more game types! Also there are new challenge modes for offline play which test your strategy and knowledge of unit balance to fight your way through certain obstacles with only limited units. I  rate this game a 4.5/5 because of its genius ideas and the many advances in online game play and more game modes to keep players interested and for the intensity of battle! I highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys battle strategy and intense fighting and battles. Also as a last note new expansions for the game will be released later in 2012 for the Heart of the Swarm Expansion and TBA for the expansion after that.

Black Ops Declassified Confirmed for PS Vita!


Along with the introduction of Black Ops 2 at E3 a Call of Duty game for the PS Vita handheld system was also released. Black Ops: Declassified. This game is supposed to feature a whole new campaign and Spec Ops missions aside from Black Ops 2. This game is supposed to be more oriented for "on-the-go" gamers. With shorter campaign and Spec Ops missions Black Ops: Declassified will make it easy to pick up play a mission and then return to what you were doing. And also just like every other Call of Duty it is confirmed that there will be a Multiplayer game mode. It will most likely be run only on WiFi because the 3G is not fast or powerful enough to support intense online gaming. The game is said to be released in Q3 2012 probably around October or November when Black Ops 2 is released. Yet the Ads for Black Ops: Declassified say "coming this holiday" so PS Vita gamers might have this game released to them before the end of the summer. The price of the game was released though and the game will cost $50.00. Although there is no developer announced yet for Black Ops: Declassified it is most likely made by Treyarch. Any other news on this will be posted immediately.

The main plot of the newest elder scrolls game ; The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim is that the player is trying to kill Alduin, a dragon god who is said to destroy the world. The Game is based on a mythical planet called Nirn in the Province of Skyrim. The main feel of the map set of is somewhat medieval times type style except for there are many mythical creatures.  There are castles and people ride horses your typical medieval times stuff. The one thing about the Elder Scrolls series that is fun is that each game doesn `t have just set missions that you complete it is an RPG. You pretty much can do anything you want along with the set missions. It could almost be considered the medieval Gran Theft Auto because you can kill random people and steal stuff and what not.The new Elder Scrolls Online that will be coming out is a very big steep for the Elder Scrolls series because it will be their first multiplayer game. You will be able to do everything in the normal Elder Scrolls but with friends online! Battle monsters, complete missions you name it!

Even though i am not particularly a fan of the Halo series, the new Halo 4 does seem to be covering what was wrong with each of the other games before it.
