GAME ACCESSORIES

Hello everyone it me Matsterchief again here to talk today about gaming accessories. Now I am not talking about getting a controller that molds to your hands perfectly but for you serious hard core gamers out there who want one I have nothing against that, to each their own I say. I am talking about however toys that can make your game experience even more enjoyable.

For those Gamers who like to play online a lot with friends there is one piece of equipment I strongly urge you to get and that the a Turtle Beach game headset. This headset offers good sound quality noise canceling acoustics and its very comfortable you could probably wear it for hours and your ears would not hate you for it. This can run from $60-$160 but trust me they are a good investment.

Another fun toy is a racing wheel for you gamers who enjoy a more authentic feel when you are playing your racing games. They can help put you into the feel of the game and make you almost believe that you are actually behind the wheel of a real racecar .

Other little gadgets that I recommend getting are charging stands for you controllers because it sucks when your about to kill a dragon and your controller runs out of juice.

Gaming Conventions E3

Game Conventions

Hello, Hello, Hello its the Matsterchief again here to talk to you all about game conventions. There are several game conventions held in the U.S and over seas each year ranging from Blizzcon to Comicon. However one of the largest that is held each year is E3 in either May or June in Los Angeles California. This conventions features all of the major game companies such as Mircrosoft, Sony, and Nintendo. It also features many other smaller companies trying to leave their mark in the gaming world.

E3 can kind of be a lot to take in the first time in there. Most people probably would not know even where to start. Every year thousands of people attend and it can be pretty crazy but most everyone says its a blast. People can go and see what game developers have in store in the coming months and even get a chance to test out some of the games and products themselves before they even come out on the market. Overall the place is a blast and definitely.

Dragon Age Inquisition

news.ea.com

Hello my comrades. Here's a new game I have played recently and let me tell you it is amazing. It's called Dragon Age Inquisition. In the game you start out as the lone survivor of a terrible explosion that has killed thousands and has left you confused as well as tattooed with a strange glowing mark that is slowly spreading across your body. You learn that this mark however is the key to saving the world. The game itself is a huge open world game littered with places to explore and quests to fulfill. This game also allows you to do deep character customization, it mimics the Elder Scrolls Skyrim in many ways however in this game your actions and your choices can leave a lasting impact. There is no one set ending to this game there are actually several endings and each depends on what you do during your time playing the game.

Out of all the games out for next gen consols I strongly recommend checking out Dragon Age Inquisition, im giving it a 9.25 out of 10.

Xbox One review

Xbox One

Greetings to my fellow gamers; this is Matsterchief for another fun filled review. Todays review is over the new Xbox one. I have tested this out personally and I am quite impressed when I am able to play it however. The consul has many amazing features such as multi tasking where you can leave you game that your playing watch a news story then go back to your game at the exact point you left it. The graphics are also very impressive and it offers a pretty impressive frame rate which makes the games appear even more crisp and beautiful.

All these cool features come at a cost though and for some that cost may be just too high. The price tag alone for one of these bad boys can range anywhere from $370-$600 depending on whether you get a new or used one or one with more memory and so on. Another hit that I found out the hard way is that the consul has to be connected to the internet most of the time your using it. For those people who live in an area with good internet won't really have a problem, but for people like me who live in the boonies that's another matter. For me we had to upgrade our internet access just to be able to play the thing and even then sometimes it will boot me off depending on the strength of our internet signal.

When im able to play the Xbox One I enjoy myself and have a blast but still even though internet is becoming more available to people for some it can take them awhile to get it and even if they do there is no guarantee that they will have the proper internet strength to be able to play a system such as this.

All of these negatives aside, which may seem like a lot but still the Xbox One is a very good gaming consul and when the price drops to around $200-$300 id strongly recommend it to people. So after everything I'm giving the Xbox One a solid 8.25 out of 10.

Vintage game of the week :Mario

gamedbase.com

ITS A ME A MARIO!!! Ok not really its me Matsterchief again for another vintage game review. This weeks game is Super Mario Bro. for the Nintendo. I don't care who you are this game is a classic and everyone should play it at least once. Its a game that makes you feel like a kid no matter what your age. Its a simply must play game.

The story line is a bit confusing and to be honest I don't have much of a clue what it is at all just that a princess named peach has been kidnapped by a turtle dragon dude and you have to rescue her pretty awesome right. The game itself is a simple plat forming game meaning you basically jump from platform to platform while avoiding hazards and enemies like lava lakes or man eating plants. You just go from level to level avoiding all obstacles and jump on a flag pole to go to the next level not much more difficult than that.

Besides the story being somewhat lacking in my opinion but the simple fun of avoiding obstacles and jumping on gumpa's heads (bad guys in the game) or dodging squids in underwater levels or eating mushrooms that let you through fire balls, this game just makes me feel like a kid again and I have a blast while doing it. So with that being said I give Super Mario Bros. a 9 out of 10. Remember however that this is just my opinion so play the game for yourself and then you decide whether you like it or not.

Mobile Games

crypticgnome.com

Hello once again this is Matsterchief here to talk about the wonderful world of mobile games. Mobile games have taken much of the gaming and entertainment markets by storm. This is most likely due to the fact that a vast majority of the public have or at least have access to some sort of smart phone or tablet.

Several games such as the very popular Clash of Clans and Game of War have had millions of downloads and people are wildly impressed. Many people have even said that because of mobile games, console games could be non existent in the near future. However many people disagree with this me as well. Mobile games are fun to play when your bored when your waiting for someone at school or if your on a long road trip but they don't offer too much in the form of a story or gameplay. Most have choppy controls or extremely bad graphics and play styles that cannot compete with console games.

All that aside I will not say that mobile games are a waste of time or they are stupid, I like to play them and I play them a lot just not for long periods of time. They're fun but not too fun to replace my consoles.

Well that's all for today MatsterChief signing off

Video game Advertising

Hello my faithful blog peoples its me again and today I thought I would talk about a topic associated with gaming, and that is the video game advertising. Video game advertising is a huge business. Some game campaigns cost several million dollars in hopes that they will get enough peoples attention to buy their game and make up for the campaign costs and of course make a profit.


However some games can run huge campaigns and still run up short. One example of this is the game called Homefront. They ran several elaborate and expensive campaigns and failed to make a sufficient profit. Then there are games like Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 whose ad campaigns have rivaled that of block buster movies.


So for those of you out their who like games and advertising maybe this is the career for you.
