As the Allied forces broke out of the Normandy beaches and the fight for France began, American tank crews quickly recognized what they were gonna be up against. To their dismay and horror, the American Sherman tank-crews soon learned how inadequate and inferior their tanks were, especially while battling Germany’s latest model tanks. The Americans were out-gunned and out-armored by the far superior German tanks. The only thing the American tanks had going, was the fact that they were quicker, more maneuverable and far more dependable. The Allies had a bigger number of tanks, stronger artillery and air support. German colonies were constantly harassed from the sky as American Thunderbolts and British Typhoons rained horror upon them.

Although the remainder of 2007 is jam-packed with releases, a couple of games stand out from the madding crowd. One of those is Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the next installment in the previously World War II-focused series. Most recently touted at the E3 Media & Business Summit, the game’s viscerally intense depiction of two fictional 21st-century wars has generated more than a little interest.With the question of “if” answered for many prospective Call of Duty 4 buyers, the issue now is “when.” According to Eurogamer, a clue arrived this week at a London “press event,” where an unnamed “senior brand manager” apparently “let the news slip” that the game is coming out in the UK on November 9. The site claims that UK activision reps would only “confirm” the release date as “winter,” and Eurogamer “didn’t” get into any “further detail.” But if it were true, the date would all but confirm that Call of Duty 4 would arrive stateside on November 6 or November 13–the two Tuesdays that buttress the aforementioned Friday. (Games are most often released on Tuesdays in North America.)Eurogamer’s sources aren’t exactly concrete, and US Activision lips were sealed.

Command and Conquer : Renegade is a fps (First Person Shooter) game. Its story takes place during the final days of the First Tiberium War originally depicted in Command & Conquer where the player assumes the role of commando Nick ‘Havoc’ Parker carrying out various missions assigned to him by his superiors. These missions take him all over the world in various countries and climates, both indoor and outdoor, and his actions greatly affect the current state of the war. You have two choices. You can play online or do a campaign. The online one has tons of servers to choose from. You can use Westwood online or Gamespy. There’s Different maps like C&C Island and C&C Mesa. Those are just two of many maps. Renegade has a few different characters for each team. The teams are GDI (Global defense Forces) and Nod. GDI is like the US army. With the modern technology (Except for the repair gun). Nod is mutants which have almost the same weapons. GDI and Nod. Each team starts with a base and must purchase vehicles and advanced character classes in order to destroy the enemy base and defend their own base. In the single player mode, you play as Nick “Havoc” Parker. Which means you play on GDI against Nod. You play with computers and against them.

The multiplayer component of this game takes on the form of ‘Command and Conquer Mode’, where players are divided
into the two teams of GDI and Nod. Each team begins with a base and must buy vehicles and advanced character
courses in order to destroy the enemy base of operations and also defend their home base. The game is won when one
team destroys the other’s base or when the time limit expires and the team with the highest score is declared the
winner. Damaging and destroying enemy units and structures gains points. Some servers allow the ‘endgame beacon’ .

Quake Wars has two betas, Sewer and Valley. Sewer being the first beta that was a very small map. It was also easier for GDF (Global Defence Forces). And tougher for Strogg (The aliens attacking earth) because the tasks to prevent were difficult. Quake Wars has great graphics and water effects. The weapons layout depend on which team and what character class you are playing.

The Strogg has futuristic alien technology. Including ; shield gun, rail gun and the Tormentor. Which flys using the mouse to move up and down and some special assigned keys. GDF has things like the husky and the Titian (Which is like the GDI medium tank in Renegade Command and Conquer). It has three objectives each one is unlike than the last. The video indicated below is the Sewer map.

The valley map on the other hand is larger and has more water and GDF has boats that are useful in sneaking up on Strogg to complete the last 2 objectives.

Boats are very useful by taking advantage of a water tunnel that connects to a passageway which leads into Strogg’s shield generator.The boats are very sink too.

Strogg must mine the path into the second base otherwise you will be sent to the last base and if GDF gets through they win and you will lose the battle. But it is tougher on GDF because the map is larger and holds greater objectives.

Yes this is an oldie, but it’s hard not to revisit such classic games. See Games like this have great replay value, nothing beats a great fragfest! So off to rekindle old flames..

This intense game has a great selection of enemies. And a good multiplayer mode. It’s 3D graphics and great sound effects make it almost real. The levels are challenging, with all the monsters hurling at you. There’s some text on the box that says why it’s based in ancient Egypt. Most player will find the movement keys and mouse buttons ideal. The weakest enemies are even fast at shooting. So fast reflexes are needed to survive in Serious Sam. Fortunately, Each new weapon is bigger and more powerful. Every environment in this game is drawn using very clear, colorful texture maps even when you are right at them. A unique affect is little pools of water shimmer light on nearby walls. Chain guns and rocket launchers sound as mean as they look. Whenever you see a lot of ammunition and power ups, you are probably gonna need it. If this isn’t enough, this game has a multiplayer mode. Up to four people can play on one computer. Either cooperative or against each other. Otherwise it has plenty servers online to play on. Something worth pointing out is that Serious Sam is comes with proprietary level editing and 3D modeling tools for those who are interested in building on the games good foundation.
