EA Play 2016 Minute Recap

An impressive lineup this year for EA's upcoming titles

Battlefield 1

Today's EA E3 Conference revealed many anticipated releases later this year or early next year. Some of which include the much talked-about Battlefield 1; which is slated for a fall release.

A trailer showed for the first time here shows brand new gameplay footage this time, rather than the in-engine reveal seen last month.

An hour live stream (with numerous celebrity guests including the likes of Zac Efron, Jamie Foxx, Wiz Kalifa and Snoop Dogg) showed the game being played in front of an audience for the first time.

It's beautifully satisfying.

Titanfall 2

Titanfall also made an appearance with exclusive gameplay coverage and an all-new campaign feature - a first for the franchise - encapsulating the relationship between man and titan.

The multiplayer can be expected to remain much of the same, boasting additional perks and upgrades.

Mass Effect Andromeda

My personal favorite, Mass Effect Andromeda got a sweet two-minute trailer; ascribing to (exactly) what those of us following the leaks were told.

In this fresh installment, you play as a pathfinder (Ryder?) who commands the tempest around the Andromeda galaxy, to search for a new home for humanity.

As an alien species to this new sector of the universe, we will be met with hostility - formidable foes (Cerberus?) along with trustworthy allies.

Madden and Fifa 17

On the sports, Madden 17 and Fifa 17 are looking great, as usual. We didn't hear much in terms of what's new on the feature side of Madden, but it was reported Fifa sports a very realistic campaign following a young talent, entering the likes of competitive football; facing adversary in getting recognized and struggling with reputation in the public eye.

Bethesda's up next

In a few minutes we'll see what Bethesda has in store for us!

Review of the Alienware Graphics Amplifier

Laptop VS Desktop? Have both. What is a "graphics amplifier"? In essence an external GPU you can plug right into your system. Many companies have tried to release these onto the market, but sadly many haven't gotten past announcement phase. Users either resort to painstakingly building custom external graphics cards with components purchased all over the web or simply tossing aside their laptop and building a $10000 gaming PC for their graphics power needs. Both are acceptable, but Alienware and Razor (or any other company to announce one aain) give you another option: a mini-tower outfitted with a build-in PSU and cooling fan for your graphics power needs. Easier and More Flexible Wouldn't it be great to bring your laptop to work, coming back to your home office 2 hours later and gaming away as if it were that $10000 desktop? What a versatile workstation! No stray red, black and yellow cables sticking out of a shoebox or melted GPUs.

Level Design in God of War (Part 1)

Becoming the God of War God of War is one of the most-critically acclaimed franchises to ever hit the Playstation market. In this pipeline deconstruction, I will refer to elements of the series as a whole. Dominus the main character in concept, needed to be summed up in a single word -- wrath . Covered in the ash of his wife and child, the character is a demigod who seeks revenge on the gods who betrayed him. Once the artists stripped away his armor and shield, the character’s true raw, animalistic side was exposed. Tall with upper-body musculature, covered in ashes and hunched over with his signature Blades of Chaos, Dominus was a force to be reckoned with. Dominus set the stage for the today’s Playstation mascot -- Kratos. Level Design Mood and exploration is a staple part of level design in God of War . Areas that are more open are also relatively barren; while many objects are placed around smaller areas like rooms. I think this encourages the player’s sense o
