Call of Duty World at War Collectors Edition ONLY $90!

Confront new and ruthless enemies across the Pacific and European battlefields in the final days of WWII (World War 2). Jump into enhanced infantry and vehicle-based multiplayer action with persistent stats. Upgradable weapons, and more Perks then ever before. Harness the power of the online four-player Co Op Campaign Mode.

The next edition to the COD warfare game series makes a massive hit, with stunning graphics and great gameplay. This addition to the series is fantastic for the hardcore gamer, and general gamers who enjoy their Call of Duty.

The graphics this game can easily boast about, make for the best detail like a cross between BioShock, Call of Duty 4 and a shot of zing to make it just that little bit better then other First Person Shooters.  I give this game a 9 out of 10 for Graphics. It would be higher, but they won’t let me increase the resolution as much as I want. The gameplay of Call of Duty world at war is a little ticky at first, but it grows on you. I remember a mission in the Solo of Call of Duty world at war. You’re a sniper and have to somehow shoot another sniper across the building from you. He is a tricky little bugger and hides until you come out from your hiding, and he always knows where you are. I must give this game a fantastic 10 / 10 and a double thumbs up for gameplay and storyline.

Enemy sniper in the tree! Watch Out!

It’s that unique, that your enemies can even hide in trees to shoot at you. It’s funny when they fall and get caught in their ropes.

The sound of this game makes me wonder, did they pinch a switchboard from hollywood? It’s just that great! I’m going to give it a 10 / 10!

Darn Rain! Can't see the enemy!

So what does that make it, 10 / 10, 9 / 10 and 10 / 10. Well… I guess, I’ll have to rate this game at a whopping 10 / 10! I recommend this game to any and ALL first person shooter fans.

Who needs summer, when you can play with your very own Flamethrower!

Get it, you’ll love it!

Experience real-time strategy in a whole new dimension! Every battle is different, every army unique. Create your own fighting force from mighty creatures and powerful soldiers. Lead your army in epic online battles - together with your friends or against them!

This game is surprisingly fun, you use cards to summon your allies and then fight with them to overcome your enemies. It can be played online with others or 1v1 solo with a max amount of 16 players in 1 match, things can get ugly, fast! And that’s just what we want. A game that is fun, looks good, feels good, and is overall, just pretty cool to kick your enemies butt! You get different types of cards such as, the structure card, unit card and spell cards. I’m going to rate the graphics of this game, a 10 out of 10. It looks stunning, game play I am going to rate as 8 / 10, needs a little work in terms of shortcuts and alike. This game has brilliant sound so 10 / 10 for that!

Now to the big part, the final score!

I am rating Battleforge 9 out of 10 as the final score! Well done E.A. This may just be your next best thing. I know I will continue to play this game myself once it is fully released.

World of Warcraft - Wrath of the Lich King

With only 10 days to go, many a World of Warcraft saga fan are starting the counter for when the long awaited 2nd expansion pack of World of Warcraft is released.

With the opening of the Dark Portal, and the renewed war to stop the Burning Crusade’s destruction of worlds, the heroes of Azeroth have given little thought to the frozen wastes of Northrend - and the terrible, ancient powers that wait there. Yet the brooding evils of the fallen Nerubian empire and their malevolent sovereign have not forgotten Azeroth…

The former death knight and now Lich King Arthas has set in motion events that could lead to the extinction of all life in Azeroth, as his undead armies and the necromantic power of the plague threaten to sweep across the land. Only the mightiest heroes can survive the frozen northlands with any hope of disrupting the plans of Arthas - and perhaps even challenge the Lich King himself and end his reign of terror for all time.

Looking forward to the introduction of the Hero Class, the Death Knight.

Other features include;
• Destructible buildings
• Siege weapons
• New Map `Northernd`
• New Profession `Inscription`
• Changeable Hairstyles
• New Dances
• New Quests
• New Dungeons
• New Monsters
• New Items
• Level Cap raised to 80

Get this game pre-ordered for only $59.95!!!

Halo 3: Recon armour, taken from Halo 3 during ingame play. Available in Halo 3 via unlocking stages and progressing.

As many Halo 3 fans (Including Myself) wait for more information on Halo 4, we are presented with Halo 3: Recon. This seems to be a good game, but I guess we’ll have to wait and find out. If I am able to get into the beta, I will review the game as soon as possible!

This game seems to boast a new campaign, new hero (Not Master Chief) and more fun in the sun for everyone!

Here you can view the preview yourself, feel free to comment about it here.

Release date not yet confirmed stated as ‘fall 2009′ which is somewhat utterly useless for us Australians. Let me translate it for you,

Some time around mid to late 2009 give or take a few months. All I can really say is, thank god they didn’t have any choice as whether or not they were going to use the metric system.

Call of Duty: World at War!

Fans eagerly await the release date...

As many fans of the Call of Duty Saga lie patiently in wait, the day draws nearer when the war begins!

Take a look at some of the game play summed up in this neat little blog post. It’s worth it!

Game Play Video

Official Trailer (HD)

I have already pre-ordered the collectors edition of Call of Duty: World at War and I will write a review of the game when I have given it a good run through (Give me about 3 days or so… heh)

Do not buy this game until you have read the reviews unless you are certain that it is what you want!
