So I just finished playing Call of Duty: Black Ops (CODBLOPS…) yesterday. I decided not to do a review, but a general complain… And boy, I was disappointed. I mean, it’s a good game. It’s the best iteration that Treyarch made, rivaling with Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2 scripting quality. But the game itself… No. Continue reading →

lolfang — Sun, 16 May 2010 17:59:13 +0000

You know, I just crossed my paths with a video that… kinda scared me. The video showed how to build a city that –according to game rules– was the perfect city. Of course, there were some problems.

There’s not too much to talk about this game… Just get it. I don’t care how. Go and get it, any means possible. If you have to steal it, then do so. But please get this game. © lolfang for another.intheuniverse, 2010. | Permalink | No comments

Mount&Blade

lolfang — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 23:58:52 +0000

I took my time to make a mini review of this wonderful Indie game, made by TaleWorlds. This “team” is composed of just 2 developers (!). And they managed to make one of the most addicting game that I’ve played in a long time, which is an enormous feat. So let’s go straight to the Continue reading →
