World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Review


Today I am review World of Warcraft Cataclysm also known for short as WoW. World of Warcraft already has 2 expansions out Burning Crusade and Wrath of the Lich King.  Today I am review cataclysm the most recent new expansion that raises your max level to 85 and adds the amazing to areas you can quest and level in. World of Warcraft is a PC only game. It is very popular with around 12 million maybe more playing it. It’s one of the most played computer games in the word. For cataclysm I already said the max level is increased from 80 to 85.

 It can be pretty hard to level at some points but I thought it was a little hard but not that bad. Of course the hardest level to get was from 84-85 which you think aahhh this is going to take me forever sometimes but it’s achely not that bad. With 5 new levels comes with new awesome places to level with plenty of fun quests to do. The whole world of the game gets changed its self with all new scenery changes to almost all the old places in Azeroth. The only thing bad is that the graphics didn’t get updated so blizzard is still using the same graphic engine which is starting to be really out dated. The graphics are still colorful, cartoony, and cool to look at but the graphics aren’t the best. Also 2 new races we added you can now choose from the goblin and worgen.

They are both really cool but I have to side with the goblin being my favorite but both beginning stories are really interesting. When you hit 85 you have plenty of stuff to do that could keep you busy for months and months to come.

 You have all new raids, pvping, new armor to get, professions to raise, and more achievements to get. I give World of Warcraft  Cataclysm a 4/5

Preview Friday:Diablo 3


Today is preview Friday again and today I’m previewing Diablo 3. Diablo 3 is a PC only game that is a serious it stated off with Diablo, Diablo 2, and now Diablo 3. The Diablo series is made by Blizzard the popular gaming company that made World of Warcraft. Diablo 3 graphics are a step up from the old 2d graphics and are much better looking. The graphics a 3d now and have great color rich texture to them that make them pretty cool to look at. The graphics in Diablo 3 are much better looking now. Also from better graphics when you make your character you can choose whether you want your character to be a male or a female.

 In previous Diablo games you had no choice certain classes were female and some were male. So far there are 5 classes to choose from but as far as we know not all of them are released so there could be more on the way. The five you can choose from are the witch doctor, monk, barbarian, demon hunter, and the wizard. Each class has their own special moves that make each of the classes special. The talent tress are all unique to and you can respect them unlike in old Diablos if you messed something up well that’s too bad but now you can fix it at certain levels.

 With a whole bunch of new features added to the game play, all new story line, better graphics, new terrain to explore and fight on, and new monsters to kill Diablo 3 looks like a great game and is set for TBA 2011 (To be advised). Defiantly something you should look into if you like multiplayer role playing games and are a fan of blizzard games.

Rift Review


Today I am review Rift and it was released recently on March 1. Rift attracted a lot of people interested in the new mmo especial  since in the commercial it says  we’re not in azeroth any more. Rift took on Blizzards challenge of try to beat them out in having a better game. Rift selling a lot of copies but not close to World of Warcrafts amazing sells. Rift is a pretty good game, starting off with the graphics and they are fantastic. The fighting effects and everything looks amazing and beautiful and you will defiantly enjoy looking at stuff in the game.

Rift has 3 races on each side you can choose from. On the defiants you 3 different races and on the guardians they are different. There is also a very wide character customization process that is fantastic. With many choices to do with your character you get to play for the next 50 levels. The max level in Rift is 50 and with many different zones and the crazy invasions off rifts to fight off it will be a blast. The PvP in Rift is awesome with PvP levels that you increase to get better armor and with variety of game modes and keeping track of stats its very fun.

 On the PvE side there is some PvE but you can tell the main focus is PvP but with very interesting PvE stuff to do it is still fun. For the classes you can probably be 50 different types of classes even more. You start off choosing 4 main ones warrior, mage, rouge, and cleric. Inside those are 8 sub classes to choose from and you get to choose 3 of them to use. It is awesome with the variety of things you can choose from to do. After you get to 50 there is plenty to do so enjoy at 50. I give Rift a 4.5/5

Call of Duty:Black Ops

Today I will be review Call of Duty : Black Ops.  Black Ops is the seventh game to the Call of Duty series. Once again it is a big hit. With it selling 13.7 million copies just in the United States. Which comparing it to all people in America  every 1 out of 8 house holds have a copy of Black Ops in it. First starting off by talking about the campaign. The campaign is pretty short only having about 7 hours of game play really just depending on how fast you play it. The campaign is pretty good. It has a good story line and very awesome cut scenes that are awesome to watch. The game play in the campaign is very fun. The graphics are mediocre . There are a lot better graphics out there in other games but the graphics are good but not really good.

The multiplayer is pretty fun. There’s a lot of stuff you can do in the multiplayer. There’s a total of 50 levels and you can prestige after you hit 50. There are a ton of guns and customizable thing to do with your character. The online game play is good but it can get really cheesy sometimes. There kill streaks you can get are cool and it is always fun getting them and watch your score rack up.


Also besides that there’s the nazi zombies you can play. There’s the main two maps you have one when you start out and you unlock the white house after you beat the campaign. Nazi zombies could be a game its self. I give Black Ops a 4/5

Starcraft 2

Today I am reviewing Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty.  This recently came out on july 27 2010. Its a computer only title that is coming off of Starcraft: Broodwars which was released in December 18,1998. Which was a amazing game and many people awaited for Starcraft 2. Tommarow is Old Timer Tuesday and more on starcraft will be talked about tommarow. Starcraft 2 finally released in 2010 is a great game. The campaign is amzing.
The campaign has 26-30 missoins and meaning 26-30 is that there are special missions and a hidden 36th mission that you have to do. It could take a variety of time depending on difficulty you play it on and just how long it takes you. The graphics are pretty nice and really colorful.
The cut scenes are amazing. It was like watching and folowing a movie most of the time when playing it. There are a lot of decisions you get to make that affect the game which is awsome.
Now for the mutiplayer. Which the multiplay is my favorite part. There are 3 unique races that you can choose from to play with. With new units and some classic ones from the old starcraft the multiplayer is awsome. There are 6 different leagues bronze (being the worst), silver,gold,platnium,diamond, and masters. It matches you up with people and it puts you in different brackets and you can slowly increase your rank and rising to the top. With tons of dynamic map play for online and the unique 3 races Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty gets a AMAZING 5/5
