Winter Update

So since the holidays are over I will catch you all up on my gaming adventures as of late. I have recently gotten a new PC with updated RAM, vid Card, and proccessor. Nothing special but im able to play newer games. This review will be quick reviews of the games I have been playing on 360 and PC.

Star Wars: The Old Republic (PC)

If you are a fan of WoW and Star Wars then this is the game for you. It is a Bioware game so the story is amazing. There is a small little interactive cutscene for almost every conversation wich is truly amazing for a MMORPG. I have played a little bit of every class but focusing on a Jedi Sage (WoW Priest) and I must say its better than WoW's because of the compainion. I can be speced for healing and have my compaionion do most of the work with me throwing objects from a distant. Only downside I have is each faction has 4 classes wich isnt bad except 2 of those 4 are on one planet and the other 2 are on the other so the beginning classes are repetitive to a point. A major plus is this game is free to download and free to play. I do recommend paying $15/month for a few months to test it out, it is well worth it. I did do f2p for a few weeks and it was just as fun and entertaining. So if you are a fan of MMORPG, Star Wars, or just cheap then I highly recommend this game.

Civilization V (PC)

What can I say its Civilization and it can do no wrong. Nothing much has changed they did remove unit stacking so that requires a bit more strategy for battles, added city states wich I do not like at all since you lose their alliance way too fast. Took out religion wich was a big part of diplomacy in Civ4 but they added it back with the new expansion that ill have to try out. Still very fun though, ive only made it about halfway through a game so far.

World of Tanks (PC)

If you like massive tank battles 16v16 then this is for you. I have played about 10 matches so far online and I must say I do like it. You start with the very early tanks and add upgrades as you earn money. The maps are very different when it comes to play style but a good combination of attacking or just sitting back around a corner of a building. Having a Frostbite game engine in it would make it one of the best games out there. If you want something new to try out then check it out, its free to play and about 5gb of hard drive space needed.

NBA2K13 (360)

Ok so I know I did a review for this game a few months ago but with Christmas money left over I was able to get it at no exspense to me. I have started to like it more since I figured out that there is about 3 buttons needed to be pushed before shooting to make a descent shot. I also have a friend that has it so we will be doing a league together here soon so that should be fun.

NCAA 2012 (360)

I rented this game 4 different times back before I did reviews and I love it. I recommend this over Madden and with the new uniform packs just released it makes the game even more realistic. Right now I have a QB still in high school and plan on going to Oregon just so I can take advantage of all the  uniforms. I am also the head coach of ULL Rajun Cajuns and im in my 2nd season after going undefeated winning the national championship. Very fun game so go get it if you are a football fan.

Other News:
I am still looking for others to write reviews on new release games so if you are interested then let me know. Also it has been planned for Rachel (My Wife) and I to go to PAX East next year in Boston for the convention. We would have went this year but forgot about it and we have already planned our vacation this year. So hopefully ill have a chance at the new XBox.
