Tekken takes these pains and doubles them with tons of jargon that newcomers have probably never heard. Not only that, but each character has dozens of moves, with some even having over 100 moves on their lists! If learning this for one character isn’t intimidating enough, newcomers will quickly find that it’s important to understand match-ups and learn other characters’ moves in order to play off their opponents. Like many of these games though, it’s incredibly rewarding to learn Tekken and climb its ra

It’s thanks to Quake Champions that fans of this iconic franchise can rejoice in the hit shooter’s return to the gaming scene. After all, before Quake Champions ’ 2017 release, the last installment in the franchise was Quake 4 in 2005. With this in mind, Quake Champions marks not just a return to form to the arena shooter, but the introduction of additional elements that make it just as exciting an experience for modern f
“The concept for LambdaGeneration was simple – we wanted to create a site that would share all of the amazing fan content the Half-Life and Valve community make,” Alex says.” At the time, most Valve fansites were focused on official news and there weren’t any news sites dedicated to things made by the community. I remember being frustrated seeing some really cool stuff scattered around various forums just going unnoticed, and I wanted to fix that.
“Reddit feels quite outdated,” Alex tells me, “I personally find it hard to use, and I know many others do too. We wanted to build a modern site, more in line with the easy-to-use interface that people have come to expect from platforms like Twitter. The Half-Life subreddit also has a huge amount of meme content and while I enjoy a good meme, we want to appeal to serious content too. For example, last week we added a ‘Fanart of the Week’ section to our sidebar. We also noticed that a lot of people shared their work on our Discord and while it is great for discussion, it’s not intended for long-term archiving due to how quickly things get buried. We wanted to create a platform that was fully public, organized, and search engine-friendly.”
Escape From Tarkov is punishing on all fronts. In most games, players need to lose to learn. Tarkov punishes players for losing though, as all equipment brought into the field is lost upon death. On the flipside, players can get massive rewards for beating another player by taking their loot h
Your Chinese zodiac animal is based on your birth year. Chinese zodiacs are slightly different than regular horoscopes, yet both say something about your personality. Based on your Chinese lunar calendar animal, we will deduce which first-person shooter game is yours! Which first-person shooter should you play based on your Chinese zod
With Black Friday over, I can now say that I’m looking forward to stabbing into Assassin’s Creed: Revelations and Rayman: Origins which I picked up during the holiday hustle. I’m also almost finished with my second play through of Deus Ex: Human Revolution which is showing me just how many different ways there are to go through that game. I’m also going to grind out some more trophies for Uncharted 3 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Reco
What started as a Counter-Strike 1.6 community map called de_cpl_strike created by Michael “BubkeZ” Hull, would eventually become the de_mirage known today when it was altered in 2004. Valve would later remake the map for the launch of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive . This version has been featured in every CS:GO Major Championships to date and has consistently been in the top 5 most played maps in both casual and professional play since 2
“I came up with the idea in 2015. I could see how traditional blogs like ours were struggling as people moved to social media. The idea was to make something easy to use and run by the community. We’d seen others get their own dedicated apps and platforms like Doom with the Slayers Club and Star Wars with the Jedi Council Forums. We also love the idea of making a modern version of Planet Half-Life, which was a popular community-oriented fansite back in the day. We want to fill the void that is left.”
“The Half-Life community is one of the most creative and talented gaming communities out there,” the founder of LambdaGeneration – who simply goes by “Alex” online – tells me. “Some of the stuff we cover just blows my mind. Whether it’s a group of people spending almost two decades recreating the original game in a modern engine or someone spending three months on a fan film, I am always taken aback by the sheer dedication people have for the series.”
Overpass was first introduced in the Winter Offensive update back on December 18, 2013, as the first Counter-Strike 2 online Guide map created specifically for competitive play. Despite this fact, the map saw many growing pains upon its release and for once it wasn’t due to being CT-sided. On release, the map appeared to be very T-sided with pros noting how easy it was to gain map control and execute on to the A bomb s
