Hot Holiday Video Games - Amazing Graphics, Missions, Challenges!

Hot Holiday Video Games - Amazing Graphics, Missions, Challenges!

By Frank C Waters
This holiday is ripe with amazing new video games, with your choice of many PC and gaming platforms to use. These sell out quick, so you should get these games when you can find them. Retail outlets face challenges with stocking these, so if you have patience, look for online sellers.
1. Torchlight 2 - for PC
Torchlight 2 is a follow-up to the popular Diablo 3, and seems to pick up the story. New to your dungeon raiding activities is a LAN party feature, big overland areas plus new hub town. The game has an updated interface, reducing menu confusion. Torchlight 2 has an editor (TorchED), allowing you to add new content and mods to the world. Also - returning pets will trop to town and sell your loot for you!
2. Borderlands 2 - for Xbox 360, PS3, PC
Borderlands 2 improves on the original game by ensuring that the entire world is not connected. If you view something in the distance, travel doesn't involve a loading break. Note that this game is very large. Enemies behave in new ways - they work in teams! These new tactics adds variety to the grinding that the game is famous for. Mechomancer (a new class) can summon a large robot helper composed of scrap metal - if you have access to their 'Premiere Club'. Gamesmaster provided a 95% rating!
3. PES 2013 - for Xbox 360, PS3
You know how great FIFA 13 is. Konami has done an excellent job of creating a game that will thrill you! Every flick, perfectly-weighted through, and one-two provides a feeling that is as amazing as the real-life game! Quite different that FIFA 13 - wish that they had improved the commentary.
4. World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria - play on PC
This World of Warcraft update introduces the Pandaren, who are a race of huge talking pandas who are masters of martial arts. They are neutral up through Level 10, and you then decide whether your character sides with the Horde or the Alliance. You start at the titular Pandaria, an island south or Northend. A new monk class uses a charge system. Attacks will build up 'chi'. Chi can be used for more advanced attacks once filled. You can enter your vanity pets into turn battles with other players' pets or with creatures encountered in the wild. It seems like a version of Pokemon, as pets you defeat are stored in a journal.
5. Assassin's Creed 3 - play on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii U
Continuing their history of playing in plain sight, Assassin's Creed 3 has some amazing assassinations, sneaking past and fighting through armies to reach targets. Employing Ubisoft's AnvilNext engine, this release provides an almost overwhelming set of battle scenes. Your missions are a mix of wilderness (invading enemy camps and hunting animals) and the cities (shortcuts through buildings and across rooftops). You have no allegiance to either American or the British, allowing you to kill both.
6. Planetside 2 - for PC
This MMOFPS focuses on class-based territorial control. Select from tree factions fighting for the planet Auraxis - in jets, on foot, and in jeeps. Sony Online Entertainment cancelled their spy MMO The Agency so they could focus on Planetside 2! This is a free-to-play game - you purchase shortcuts to items available in the game. The six classes are a mix of offense and defense. The game offers an armoured mech suit (MAX) with massive guns.
7. Need For Speed Most Wanted (2012) - play on Xbox 360, PS3, PC
The brains behind this game have developed their best yet. With features such as open-world racing, drop-in multiplayer, Autolog, and car customization have added another feature - you won't always be going forward. You can evade droves of cops down side streets and alleys - and you can mod your car on the fly with Kinect.
8. Halo 4 - play on Xbox 360
Development of this series moved to 343 Industries, and this version is more story-driven and darker than previous games in the series. Master Chief and Cortana crash on a mysterious Forerunner planet and battle against the Prometheans, a mechanical enemy. They protect themselves with hardlight shields, deploy turrets, and toss plasma grenades. You are no longer fighting the Covenant.
9. Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 - play on Xbox 360, PS3, PC, Wii U
The true value of this game lies with the bundled-in extras in the special edition. There are Strike Force missions where you command aerial vehicles, jets, robots, zombie campaigns - plus a plot involving World War III starting in Los Angeles, Singapore, and Yemen. Combine that with the tight multiplayer history of this series and multi-team matches, and this game will truly challenge you.

Mobile Game Trends and Monetization

Mobile Game Trends and Monetization

By Sam Stephan

Video games are on the rise, according to recent reviews surveying latest app trends. It is the most socially engaging activity on the web platform. This rise is mainly attributed to the mobile platform, particularly the Smartphone, because of:

• ease of access
• download
• it caters to the busiest of schedules.

While marketers are worrying over the commercial aspect and game app developers struggle to achieve monetary success, they are commended for their efforts at prioritizing user experience more than ever before, which is the main reason why games have been rated highest in terms of popularity. With this year's forecast for the most popular category to be F2P games in the 'non-casual' genre, for now developers are relying heavily on in-app purchasing and advertisement revenue.

Differences between past and present game trends

If one draws a comparison between past and present video gaming, one can observe the expansion that has taken place for the following reasons:

i. Previously, the majority of gamers were serious 'hard core 'professionals, now they include a mixed variety, and lately, there has been a surge in minor and women players and senior citizens.

ii. The business model of yesteryear structured on box sales, now it includes a variety besides box sales, such as advertising app store, retail, recommerce, virtual goods and subscription.

iii. Payment is not restricted to cash or credit and debit cards any longer. With Freemium games, a combined form of free and premium offer, users have the choice to first assess just how well they like playing the game before deciding to purchase it. The cost itself is bare enough for anyone to afford it. Google play has the In App Billing Service which functions between the Google Play server and the application. Android has bigger choices now that Amazon notified app developers that they have introduced the in app purchase system in its Android store, which can only be accessed with a purchase cost of more than USD 20.

iv. Gaming is now a universal activity and a global interactivity. To be able to play with someone across the continents is what makes gaming adventurous and highly competitive. Consequently, there has been awareness and an acceptance of the multitude of cultures that exist around the world.

A recent study revealed some interesting gaming behavior:

• Majority of gamers prefer playing games at home and others prefer to play while commuting.

• Gameplay is now a 'necessity,' ahead of other apps such as social networking and other apps in terms of time spent by users.

• In 2011, mobile gaming earned USD 12 billion through in app purchases and advertisements.

• Majority of games are referred by friends and family, followed by social media sites.

• The most popular game companies are Zynga for their games, 'Words with Friends,' Scramble with Friends,' 'Farmville' their latest acquisition, 'Draw something' 'Rovio's famed 'Angry Birds' is ranked second.

• Apple is estimated to have downloaded 25 million games in the previous month on the iPhone.

• The maximum numbers of users are in the United States, followed by Great Britain.

• Male users are slightly higher than female users.

Socialjitney is an iPhone Application Development Company providing App Development services including iPhone Game Development and BlackBerry Game Development.

All About Super Mario Brothers 3

All About Super Mario Brothers 3

By Kathy Mercado

The character Mario took a small Nintendo company in Japan and made it into a Super Nintendo Company, almost overnight. The Mario game made the Nintendo one of the most preferred and enjoyed consoles of all time. The Mario brothers game when played on the Super Nintendo makes it a combination that's worth every penny. One of the best versions of Mario was Super Mario 3.

In Super Mario 3, Mario is on an adventure to save the damsel princess in distress. The princess is kept captive eight worlds apart by the enemy, Bowser. Mario has to travel through all the tough times and rough weather to reach the princess and rescue her.

The entire journey is fun and interesting. To cross each world you have several challenges to face. The challenges are easy to tackle by using the assistance available, such as mushrooms to make you grow bigger, or even walking time bombs that you can throw at your enemies.

Boo Diddly is one character that appears at many stages in the castle. Do not stare at these characters as they could get close and attack you. It is best to avoid them and run as fast as you can.

The Power-up process can help the little Mario shoot up and become a powerful Super Mario. There are circumstances that you have to be powerful and immune to attacks, which is when becoming the most powerful Mario is very important. To become the giant Mario, you have to consume the Mushroom that comes your way. The mushrooms come after breaking the bricks throughout the game. You can also eat on the leaf to add to your super Mario suit.

A neat tool you can use is the Koopa Shells that keep you covered from your enemies. Grab any turtle shells you come across, and use these to attack your enemies. Dry Bones that appear in your way help you fly and bounce along, thus giving you the ability to fly over enemies.

Super Mario has always been one of my favorite games. If you haven't played Super Mario yet, it's time to find a copy and enjoy the fun.

For more information, visit one of our links below. We have tons of information on Mario Games, including Mario Games [http://www.Super-MarioGames.com] still in the package!

The Best Shooters of 2012 - 2013

By Ludos Nishi

Borderlands 2
Trying to pick the best out of a list of best Xbox 360 shooters really is hard. I mean pretty much every area is covered; realistic, sci-fi heck there is even one where you have to shoot dinosaurs. One game that I must admit took me by surprise and became one of my most played games on the system was Borderlands. So you could imagine just how excited that I was when Borderlands 2 was announced.
What I loved about the first Borderlands game was how it took first person shooters which is one of my favorite genres, and sprinkled it with a bunch of role playing game elements. It was like two of my favorite genres had been thrown together. I was sceptical that it would work, but I was pleasantly surprised by the great end result.
Borderlands 2 looks to build upon everything that was in the first game. The look of the game is very similar with its awesome cell shaded graphics making a return. I was so glad to see this, as the overall presentation of Borderlands was a breath of fresh air in the shooter genre. The character building elements are going to be expanded also which is even more great news.
The best news I have heard about Borderlands 2, and one that may make it the best of the best Xbox 360 shooters is that the enemy AI has been given a good working over. The AI will now work a lot smarter, and really make you think before you go in all guns blazing.
If you missed out on the first Borderlands you really must give this a try. Borderlands is a great game and if you are a fan of first person shooters I am sure you will love Borderlands 2.
Halo 4
Master Chief is back!
When it comes to icons on the Xbox 360 there is one guy that probably comes to most gamers' minds, and that guy is John-117 better know as Master Chief. Halo really kicked the Xbox off when it was first released, and each release has been met with great excitement from the fans. Halo 3 was a fitting end to that part of the Halo story, and Halo 4 is going to be the start of something new.
Halo Reach for many is considered one of the best Xbox 360 shooters, but it was also the last time that Bungie would have control of the Halo franchise. Halo 4 has been developed by the good people at 343 industries. These guys also gave us the Halo anniversary remake, and while it was just a remake they did a fantastic job.
Halo is the prefect blend of offering a fanatic's shooter experience, but it also gives you a great sci-fi story. Playing Halo is like you are involved in your own sci-fi movie. Very little has been given away as far as the story goes. We have seen that Master Chief will be going up against a new foe, and also that Cortana is going to have a very interesting part to play.
One really exciting thing about Halo 4 is that the story of this game is going to encourage the player to really get into the levels and explore. It is going to be very cool to discover some of the secrets of this Forerunner planet. One thing that is going to really go in this games favor is that the story has been written with two sequels already in mind.
Halo has always offered a very solid shooter experience, and this game looks no different. There are some gamers who are perhaps a little worried that Bungie is no longer running things, but 343 industries did a great job with the Halo anniversary, and the footage shown at E3 really does look like these guys know what they are doing.
This may very well be the last time we get to play as Master Chief this generation of consoles, but so far Halo 4 is looking like it could be one of the best games of the year.
Medal of Honor: War Fighter
Prepare for war!
It is crazy to think that this will be the 14th game in the Medal of Honor franchise. When it was rebooted in 2010 many saw it as a great return to form for the long running franchise, So it was with much excitement that War Fighter was received.
Medal of Honor: War Fighter is a direct sequel to 2010's reboot. It will follow on from events in the first game. You are still controlling Tier 1 operators through various missions. There are a great variety of different missions for you, and they will all be connected with a single story line. Many of the guys from the first game such as Preacher, Voodoo and Mother will be making a welcome return.
One thing that has gotten players really pumped up for this sequel is that the multi player is going to be powered by the Frostbite 2 engine. This is the same engine that powers Battlefield 3 which is considered one of the best Xbox 360 shooters out there. Multi player in this game is going to be fantastic. Even if you are not into the single player campaign Medal of Honor: War Fighter's multiplayer is sure to blow you away.
One very interesting thing is that along side the standard PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, there is also going to be a version for the PlayStation Vita and the new Nintendo Wii U.
In all the reboot of Medal of Honor was great fun, and with this sequel they look like they are trying to improve on every aspect of the first game. If you loved the first game you will really want to give this a try. If you are one of the gamers that the Medal of Honor series lost over the years, there has never been a better time to give it another chance.
Call of Duty Black Ops 2
One of the things that has made the Call of Duty series one of the best Xbox 360 shooter series is the versatility. Many people may think that versatility and Call of Duty do not go hand in hand, but I am talking about how they are set in World War 2, Cold War and so on. The different settings bring some diversity and fresh air. The basic formula is the same but why fix it if it ain't broke. What makes Black Ops 2 so exciting is the fact that this is the first Call of Duty game to be set in the future. Now we're talking!
The story of the Black Ops series is an interesting one, set in three time periods, the 70's to the 80's and then the future of 2025. In the future a new Cold War has broken out. This time, however, it is between China and the US. The story does sound like a great deal of effort and time has been put into it so even from a single player point of view Black Ops 2 is going to be a lot of fun.
Of course one of the reasons so many gamers rush out to buy a new Call of Duty game is because of the multi player. You could argue that in a list of best Xbox 360 shooters, the Call of Duty franchise would be on top for the best multi player game list. On a different note, Treyarch has revealed that the much loved Zombies mode from the first Black Ops game will be making a welcome return.
In all, Black Ops 2 is another Call of Duty mark of excellence. If you love the series then there is no doubt you will love this. If you've been disappointed by the Call of Duty formula and saturation of games, Blacks Ops 2 will surely win you over. It's evident that this Call of Duty release has had the most effort put into it. Out of all the Call of Duty games, Black Ops II will be one for the books.

How To Download Free Games For The Iphone

How To Download Free Games For The Iphone


By Leonard Bartholomew

Millions of people are wondering how to download free games for the iphone. Sales of this device is approaching or has exceeded 4 million since it's arrival in June of 2007. It has been less than one year and Apple is already coming out with the new 3g (third generation) device which is going to speed many of the internet related processes. It is expected that the new one will sell 10 million copies in 2008. That is a lot of Iphones. Unintentionally, even though Apple is experiencing an increase of it's own in areas of music, movie and games, a new niche has been born in the way of downloading games to the iphone through third party websites.

Steven Jobs, in his 2008 Apple keynote address, said that "what people want is movies, movies, movies". This may be a correct assumption, but there is now a world of people who are more interested in the entertainment that is provided through the acquisition and playing of games. The Iphone makes downloading anything, including movies, music, and games almost too easy

I remember having a watch when I was in my mid 20s that I could play the numeric version of space invaders on. I played it all of the time, anywhere I could, and at every opportunity I could find. I traveled by train at that time in my life and had a lot of free time. My wife at the time, who traveled with me frequently, hated that watch. But it was my little piece of joy in the world at the time and I wished that it could do so much more. But it did not.

Now think about what is going to happen with the Iphone. This is a device that can contain a number of game downloads that will suit the owner and keep them occupied for hours, days, maybe weeks. The only interruptions will come in the form of alerts, incoming email, or the occasional phone call.

So how do you download games for the Iphone? More than that, where do you get games for the iphone and is there a way to do it for FREE?

Thankfully, the answer to that question is yes, there are a number of ways to literally fill your new toy with all of the entertainment you will need for a lifetime of gaming pleasure.

Membership Websites:

Not entirely free, but the next best thing to it. With a lifetime membership free of around $50.00 you will be able to get as many games as you want with no additional fees. This seems to be the best option available today. For one thing, these websites are guaranteed to be virus and spyware free. This can be interpreted as a site that runs on host servers that are behind a firewall with state of the art virus software loaded. These are one stop shops where you can obtain not only games, but movies and music as well. Since they maintain a database of files, the file transfers usually take place in a very short period of time.

Torrent Sites:

The mechanism behind downloading free games for the Iphone using torrent sites is relatively simple. You have to have an application to manage the process like BitTorrent or Utorrent installed on your pc first. Then you go to a site like TorrentReactor or Pirate's Cove to find the game you want. Read the comments and look for any flags to determine the quality of the file you want. These sites have a "download torrent" button that will kick of the process. It will give you a choice of which application to use to obtain it with. Choose the application and the file transfer should start automatically. Don't expect a quick download of your Iphone game from a torrent site. The torrent applications transfer files at a fraction of the speed that you would expect, about 5-20 kbs. That is kilobytes per second. It would be best to set one up just before bed time in the hope that it will be finished by the time you wake up. Time for bed.

This option can be risky, but it is totally free. Be cautious on a number of fronts here. Because you are getting games using a technique called "file sharing" you are actually transferring pieces of your game from a multitude of other pcs that are doing exactly the same thing you are doing with the game you are transferring to your pc. Your pc will be vulnerable to the virus and spyware that may reside on these other pcs. So protect your pc thoroughly anti-virus and anti-spyware software before getting any free games for your Iphone using torrent sites.

Expect a knock at your door if you do not protect yourself from peering eyes. Even though a lot of people are using torrent sites, there are those that still consider it to be an illegal activity. There does not seem to be any way of controlling these activities and it continues to be on the increase. The question here is how to protect yourself. Outside agencies can watch your file transfer activities unless you block them from seeing your IP address connecting to the IP address you are transferring a piece of the game file from. You can do this by running an application like Peer Guardian. The organizations that provide these applications keep an updated list of IP addresses for the outside agencies that you want to block. If they didn't see it, it really didn't happen, right?

So, how to download free games for the iphone? Very carefully my friend. Enjoy your Iphone.

Five Tips to Make Online Games Run Faster On Your Computer

Five Tips to Make Online Games Run Faster On Your Computer


By Cristian Zoltan Bernath

With a high speed internet connection, online games are easily accessible and wide-ranging in choice. However, online gaming often comes with several different technology difficulties that aren't so noticeable in the offline world. If an internet connection is poor or keeps dropping out this can cause a game to either run slow or not run at all, which can be seriously annoying for the gaming community. Thankfully, there are a variety of fixes that can be put in place to help speed up the performance of a computer for both simple and complex internet-based games, which can range from adjusting the internet connection to updating graphics cards or similar hardware.

Here are some of the steps that can be taken to attempt to avoid performance related issues while playing cool games online -

Internet Connection - when play internet-based games use a wired connection. A set-up using a physical cable to connect the laptop to the router means there is likelihood of signal interference or a downgrade in strength, which could bring a sudden and unexpected halt to a game.

Firewall Software - an overly sensitive firewall can interfere with online-based games. If you run a firewall program on your computer, turn it off or creating a specific exception while you're playing a game to avoid this potential problem - and remember to switch the firewall back to its original settings after you have finished gaming.

Internet Browser - try a different web browser. If you're playing browser-based games, the internet browser that is installed on your computer can often have a significant bearing on the performance level and how smoothly a game runs. Popular browsers include Chrome, Internet Explorer and Firefox - try an alternative to what is already on your computer to see if that makes any difference.

Other Applications - if playing online games it can greatly improve the performance of the computer if other applications or software programs that aren't in use are closed-down. With multiple applications open the computer has to work harder, which can potentially slow the performance of games, especially those that use a lot of the computers memory resources.

Upgrade Hardware - consider updating or installing the latest graphics card to help with improving gameplay on the more graphic intensive games. A graphic card with high video RAM capabilities means a gaming experience will run faster and smoother. If the performance of the computer's hardware is poor this can greatly contribute to some of the cool games online lagging, even with a high-performance internet connection.

Cool games online are normally trustworthy for pleasing free time necessities as they are usually free of charge, simply available through the efficient use of animation and other graphical features overall.

Put Your Knowledge Of Sports Facts To Good Use By Playing A Sports Quiz In A Bar

Put Your Knowledge Of Sports Facts To Good Use By Playing A Sports Quiz In A Bar


By Peter A Hill

If you love sports and trivia and have the ability to retain sports facts, have you considered playing in a trivia league? There are sports bars and pubs in North America that offer weekly trivia quizzes as part of their entertainment schedule. However, not too many seem to offer a quiz that's solely dedicated to sports.

Trivia, especially when played in a team in a pub setting with a host asking the questions is incredibly fun and exciting. When it's just sports, it gives it that added spice. It becomes competitive and you're pumping adrenaline overtime! After all, many people love sports and there's always some great back-and-forth banter between friends who think "they know it all."

The pub quiz is not a new concept. It's been around for years and many bars and pubs offer this form of weekly entertainment for their customers. However, owners of these establishments don't seem to offer a sports-specific weekly quiz to cater to their die-hard sports enthusiasts, which is a bit of a shame. This money-making potential for the owner is often overlooked. Though there must be sports bars that do offer it, it seems a bit of a rarity. Perhaps as customers, you could mention it to staff, who may persuade the owner to start a sports quiz. Imagine a sports bar without a sports quiz? The nerve!

The best kind of sports trivia quiz is the sort that is "live-hosted". With a host asking the questions, it really gets pretty fun and exciting. The host plays an important role. If the host is confident, funny and a bit of a "smarty-pants" himself/herself, it creates great banter between the host and players. Players keep returning weekly, spending on food and drinks and staying longer (all great news for the establishment).

Many places offer "live" bands and there's nothing wrong in that. Some places offer karaoke. Again, nothing wrong in that either; but how long can you listen to someone croaking away at a John Denver tune? Ask yourself if you can get addicted to someone belting out those unreachable notes of Whitney Houston's! Sports trivia - now there's something you can get addicted to. You're in your element. Answer as many questions correctly and who knows; there might be a prize at the end of it for your team! How cool is that?

If only more sports bars would offer this to their customers, they would notice a "sudden" loyalty with the same faces showing up weekly to participate in a pub sports quiz. So, if you want to play and put your sports facts to good use (finally), why not speak to your local sports bar and ask them to introduce fun sports quizzes on a weekly basis? You'll be glad - and so will they!

Peter A. Hill is an ardent follower of trivia quizzes. In his extensive travels, he has gained a wide knowledge on his passion for trivia and played in quizzes in many parts of the world. He highly recommends On The Ball Sports Trivia http://www.ontheballtrivia.com/ for sports bars considering this great form of entertainment.
