Much like Genji, casting the role of D.VA requires a bit of care, as much of her time is spent within the confines of a suit. When Song is required to step out of the suit and stand on her own, however, Jamie Chung is our pick to help make the character stand out. The actress' work in Big Hero 6 as the spunky, mechanically obsessed Go Go should be a pretty good indication as to what kind of magic she could bring to the screen in this r
The skill-cap on Widowmaker is one of the highest in the game, as the ability to instantly kill an opposing player can turn the tide of any team fight. This fact is what makes Widowmaker both powerful and ineffective on a given team. If the player is an MLG sniper, popping domes left and right, your team will likely win. If the player has terrible aim then you are basically playing with only five peo
Skyrim - As a fan of fantasy set role playing games, Skyrim has to be one of the games I've been looking forward to since its original announcement. I'm looking forward to letting my mood take me where I want to play the game and see what kinds of surprises Bethesda has in store for people who are willing to ignore the campaign and really explore the world. Yes, I have plans to make a two-handed warrior who dabbles in the smallest bit of ma
A lot of gamers will no doubt spend much of November in the online trenches of Battlefield 3 and Modern Warfare 3 but, with a few exceptions, I've always been drawn to great single player experiences. I'll dabble with multiplayer but I'm a sucker for a compelling story campaign - which is why I'll be spending most of my November game time completing the story of Ezio Auditore da Firenze in Assassin's Creed: Revelations as well as adventuring through my most anticipated game of the year, Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception . If I find some extra time, I intend to finish up Deus Ex: Human Revolution but with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword arriving this month, I'm expecting my gaming TV to be occupied more than usual - as my girlfriend embarks on Link's latest 40-hour advent
Before purchasing any of the many titles launching in November, my goal is to complete both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City . I was able to narrow down my list of November releases to two titles: Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception and Assassin's Creed: Revelations . I'm interested in a bunch of other titles in November including Need for Speed The Run and Metal Gear Solid HD collection , however I had to put these on the back burner due to time and money constraints. Narrowing my list down to two titles wasn't easy and as the month progresses I'm not sure how long I can hold out – Modern Warfare 3 is looking too good to pass
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered had a tough job to complete. Not only did it have to match player’s nostalgic expectations, but also remain fun after nine years, and in some ways, it's successful. The campaign resonates today as much it did nine years ago, the Multiplayer is still a blast, and the visual overhaul is the best any remaster has ever received. What Raven has accomplished is impressive, but it has its limits. Their strict dedication to not tampering with the original formula means that the flaws from 2007 are clearly visible. Issues that were fixed in later Call of Duty titles are left unchecked in Modern Warfare Remastered, and it can drag the experience down. In the end, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered is a solid remaster that enhances the original game with beautiful new visuals and a little bit of extra multiplayer content, but Raven Software may have stuck to the original a little too much. A few tweaks would have gone a long way to fixing some balancing issues, but for those looking for a blast from the past, this works just fine
However, once again, Raven Software’s dedication to preserving the game rears its ugly head. While Modern Warfare Remastered’s multiplayer component is enjoyable, it feels extremely outdated as mechanics that were fixed in future entries are broken here. Infamous perks like Martyrdom, Frag Grenades x3, and Juggernaut are still present; there’s no effective counter for killstreaks, meaning a winning team can easily drown the losing team in a barrage of UAVs, airstrikes, and helicopters; and of course, there’s the infamous quickscoping, which Infinity Ward is patching out of their latest Call of Duty FPS game Updates due to backlash. Oh, and you can't forget about the noobtubes. Raven Software’s dedication is admirable but should have been more lenient when it came to balancing. When other Call of Duty games have removed perks like Martyrdom for balancing reasons or gave players lock-on weapons to counter killstreaks for balancing purposes, then it’s probably best to include those changes.
The destructible environments are what make this game stand out. While buildings provide excellent cover in other shooters thanks to their limited entrances and elaborate hallways, the buildings in Bad Company 2 are realistically vulnerable. Walls break and houses crumble if they're hit with enough firepower, forcing players to choose hiding places carefully and be ready to run if they hear creaking noises. Battles have never felt as strategic, climactic, or realistic as they do in Bad Company 2 thanks to its interactive wo
