CounterStrike: Global Offensive [ Review ]Ever since CounterStrike started to become a serious game back in the early 2000's, when FPS games still had tons of rocket launchers and jumping. CS brought realistic weapons and movement, as well as skeletal damage, to mainstream audiences. It was a time when Quake III and Unreal Tournament were still quite popular, DotA was still years away, and MMO's were only starting to come up. CounterStrike was way before Call of Duty had been, and Valve is now trying to bring the magic back.
Perhaps the most well known version of CounterStrike was Version 1.6, while Source comes in a [ ...More ]

StarCraft II - Zerg Strategy: ZvP Fast Hive Ling-Ultra [Guide]The Zerg vs Protoss matchup in StarCraft II has always been quite contentious since the start of Wings of Liberty. Protoss has a lot of ways to exploit the squishiness of their bug counterparts, while the Zerg does well in spreading the Protoss thin and picking at the weakest points of defense. Here's a strategy for Zerg that brings about a new way of thinking, albeit a risky one.
Overview
During Wings of Liberty, Zerg had come up with a mostly Roach-based strategy to deal with Protoss, including the ridiculous 12-minute Roach max build that hit them with the force of a [ ...More ]

StarCraft II - Zerg Strategy: 2-Base Muta [Guide]Learning how to play Zerg well is not exactly a cakewalk. Out of all the three races in StarCraft II, Zerg has the most tedious fundamentals of all. You have to make drones and queens, make units, make overlords, inject larvae, spread creep, scout, and so on while the other two races don't have as extensive of a checklist. With that in mind, beginners don't have much room for a build order. There's this one though, which is pretty easy to follow and use.
Overview
The increase in speed of the Mutalisks in Heart of the Swarm makes it a deadly unit [ ...More ]

Star Trek: The Video Game [Review]Perhaps one of the big fantasies that geeks have when it comes to games is a Star Trek game that holds up to how the show was. This game based on the new Star Trek movies is perhaps the closest that we now have to that fantasy, compared to those of yesteryears that were featured in an episode of Angry Video Game Nerd.
