The latest game from Naughty Dog productions, “Uncharted, The lost legacy” is a new must play game now available on PS4 and Xbox. After playing and reading about this new action game, I can say, it is definitely one of my top 5 favorite games. A little about the game. As you play, the character who you play as is a midlife Australian women named as Chloe. This is the 5th Uncharted game. All previous games followed one another, “Story wise” but the latest has gone off those tracks and is chugging in a different direction now. The 4 Previous games were plays as Nathan Drake, a tough smart historian whom in the virtual gaming world was credited for finding 4 of the biggest treasures of all time in the last 4 games. In the new game, Nathan …show more content…
They pay attention to everything from shadows to birds chasing each other through the forest. IGN gaming reviews even say quote “Lost Legacy looks and sounds spectacular in gameplay, too. It’s peppered with iconic moments that feel like you’re in control of a giant Hollywood action scene.” Another thing that I love about this game is the strategizing. This is something every Uncharted game has. Unlike most games that use arrows to gid you on where to go and what to do. These games allow you to think and make your own path using your resources and what you have, It’s a thinking …show more content…
In every story, there's a conflict/ enemy, and in this case the enemy is a secret private military group. The leader and owner of the group is trying to find the same treasure as Chloe and Nadine. In every turn, he and his army of mercenaries is there when you least expect it and you are forced to fight or die to find what you are looking for. I think that this makes the game a lot cooler than just finding a treasure with what you know, but to do it all and try to stay alive while you are in constant gun battles and eliminating one soldier at a time. The thing is, the leader of the military group does not study the artifax and does the work. They follow the two girls, and every time they find a clue, the mercenaries do to. As you're playing the game, it;s a race of time till you or the mercenaries find the lost treasure and that makes the game a lot more interesting. Over all what matters when it comes to games is how much the people playing it liked it. I like it a lot but the rating is bigger than my own words and the rating for this game overall for gaming satisfaction from the three main game raters were, 85/100 from Metacritic.com / 7.5/10 from IGN.com & ⅘ from Common sense
Despite there being hundreds of video game releases every year, most of these games are unoriginal and therefore unplayable. There are countless video game genres, but one of the most popular genres in the past few years have been the zombie games, also called survival games. I was thoroughly convinced that all the games in this genre were clichéd and overdone, until I played the video game The Last of Us. Even though it is a survival game, the focus is not on gruesome zombies or gratuitous violence, making it already vastly different from the others. Instead, the focus is on telling a story. Between the gorgeous graphics, serene music, and flawless acting, it already goes beyond being just another “zombie game,” but this isn’t even accounting
Battlefield is a very popular franchise for a reason. Dice puts the fans first in order to make a great game. Dice does not release a new game every year which allows for a better quality of game when the next game in the franchise is released. Battlefield is such a popular video game franchise because of superior business marketing, a loyal fan base, and a all around great experience when playing with friends.
A misplaced shot to the head by a mysterious man in a checkered suit and a quick burial in a shallow grave kicks off the next chapter in Bethesda’s juggernaut series: Fallout: New Vegas. While New Vegas is more expansive and jam packed than any other Fallout game to date, “this game still feels like a huge, awesome expansion” (Steimer) to the game’s predecessor. The setting takes place in a massive west coast wasteland littered with gangs, death, and ravenous creatures contesting the rebuilt ruins of Las Vegas, renamed to New Vegas after the nuclear war with China, as the wastelands marvelous centerpiece. To complete all quests, missions, and adventures in the game, “expect to rack up a total of around 100 hours.” (Steimer).
Camera work plays a key role in establishing Nolan's style in the opening scenes of The Dark Knight. The different shots Nolan uses gives the audience a deeper understanding of the direction in which the film is going. We are introduced to the film with an establishing shot of Gotham City, as the camera zooms in on one particular building. This helps establish the location and setting, as there are several skyscrapers present and it is day time. The next important shot in the opening scenes is when the camera zooms in on a man's lower back and mask, standing at the corner of a road. Nolan uses this shot to signal to the audience that this man is involved, he is in the centre of the frame therefore he will be important.

The seat of faith resides in the will of the individual and not in the leaning to our own reasoning, for reasoning is the freedom of choosing what one accepts as one’s will. In considering the will was created and one cannot accuse the potter or the clay, Milton writes to this reasoning, as “thir own revolt,” whereas the clay of humankind is sufficient and justly pliable for use as a vessel of obedience or disobedience (3.117). The difficulty of this acceptance of obedience or disobedience is inherent in the natural unwillingness in acknowledging that we are at the disposal of another being, even God. One theme of Paradise Lost is humankind’s disobedience to a Creator, a Creator that claims control over its creation. When a single living thing which God has made escapes beyond the Creator’s control this is in essence an eradicating of the Creator God. A Creator who would create a creature who the Creator would or could not control its creation is not a sovereign God. For who would not hold someone responsible for manufacturing something that could not be controlled and consider it immoral to do so? To think that God created a universe that he has somehow abdicated to its own devices is to accredit immorality to the Creator. Since the nucleus of Milton’s epic poem is to “justifie the wayes of God” to his creation, these ‘arguments’ are set in theological Miltonesque terms in his words (1. 26). Milton’s terms and words in Paradise Lost relate the view of God to man and Milton’s view to the reader. Views viewed in theological terms that have blazed many wandering paths through the centuries to knot up imperfect men to explain perfect God.
Video games have become a hot topic recently. There have been a lot of controversy over whether to play or not to play. The controversy is due to them being arguably more captivating than all other forms of entertainment. Video games narrate an epic tale like no other form of entertainment can. You can become immersed in video games, because of this they are both a highly entertaining escape from the real world and a complete waste of time.

The Rebirth of a Game Basketball in my home state goes way back, straight to the beginning. The University of Kansas (KU) hired James Naismith, the inventor of the game, as its first basketball coach in 1898. The fledgling sport has caught on, and has gained force ever since. KU was also the scene of the emergence of Wilt Chamberlain, who dominated the game like none other. At the same time that “Wilt the Stilt” was breaking out, Kansas State University (KSU) had a basketball coach by the name of Tex Winter.

Video games bring a sense of the reality to most people, especially if you are a hardcore gamer. They bring reality by essentially creating a virtual world that feels as if you are living in the real world. Lucky Wander Boy by D.B. Weiss is transmitting a certain message to a certain audience. The novel is intended to enthrall an audience consisted of video game enthusiasts around their late twenties and thirties. Lucky Wander Boy is sending a message to the audience, the message is experiencing living the real life through a video game; just like they may have experienced before. The book is fundamentally illustrating the thoughts and experiences this group of people might have gone through during the golden age of video game. The book does this by showing us the narrative of Adam Pennyman, the protagonist of the book coping with his struggles through a video game. Video games revive Adams actual life to some extent; without the game he would not find any point in his life because of all the struggles and negativity he has been through. The book Lucky Wander Boy by W.B. Weiss is about a man named Adam Pennyman during the golden age of video games trying to find the perfect game. Throughout the book Adam Pennyman is creating an encyclopedia of every game he has created. The encyclopedia is called Catalogue of Obsolete Entertainments and in it he has referenced video games such as Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Frogger, and many others. The encyclopedia ends up becoming more personal instead of reviewing the games. Later in the novel Adam begins to lose interest in the encyclopedia because he wants to find out how the game, Lucky Wander Boy, that he played for hours on end as a kid ended. Adam eventually ends up getting a job as a copywrite...

Although 'Super Metroid' is an action platforming game, it has a very heavy focus on player exploration as well; players must search for new abilities and paths to make progress, and are also rewarded with new upgrades if they return to previously accessed areas once they have a new arsenal at their disposal. The gameplay is very similar to previous Metroid titles ('Metroid'- released in 1986- and 'Metroid II: Return of Samus'- released in 1991), bu...
