Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 has been announced!!!


For the people who have been playing Marvel vs Capcom 3, I'm pretty sure you have been wondering why we have not seen any more new characters for the past few months. I'm actually surprised that I did not see this coming. Since Capcom did the same thing with street fight 4, and making it super Street Fighter 4. Capcom has made a similar expansion to the MVC3 series and calling it Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 with 12 new fighter which will bring the total to 50 playable characters. Which in my opinion is awesome, so now those people who complained about limited characters can stop whining. Apparently only four characters were suppose to be announce, but of course the roster got leaked in a matter of hours. (sometimes I think they do it on purpose) which reveal all the new 12 characters.

Marvel Side: 
Ghost Rider
Hawkeye
Dr. Strange
Rocket Raccoon (I have no idea who he is)
Iron Fist




Capcom Side:
Phoenix Wright
Frank West
Nemesis (resident evil)
Vergil(devil may cry)
Firebrand(ghost and goblins)
Strider




I sure you guys and already figure out who is going to be your A-team for this upcoming game. I already got a couple of people I want try out. There is no official release out, for now all Capcom has said is that is due to release in November...GREAT....This is another game on my list of games that I plan on getting this year. I like how all the game all come out at the same time.... sarcasm

Different between Mortal Kombat and Marvel vs Capcom 3

Obviously these two are fantastic games, but both are completely different from one another. Literally they are like night and day from each other. Both having deep and complex combos and offering a wide variety of characters and extra modes to keep the game interesting. Here are some pros, cons, and differences between the two.

I will start off with Marvel vs. Capcom 3 first. MVC3 uses 3D characters on a 3D plain, making the characters really pop out with really bright colors. Now some people see this as a good thing or a bad thing, there are only 32 characters compared to its previous game that had 50 something odd characters. I personally don't have a problem with it simply because I honestly did not use all 50 characters; I used maybe 3 people, that’s it. If you are a Marvel fan, they have pretty much of all the characters you would think that are in the game. Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, Wolverine, Dead Pool, and others. Once I heard Zero from the Megaman series was in the game that is all I needed to here. I am more of a Capcom fan. Now what is really easy about this game is to fight, it is just 3 button, light, medium and hard attack. Of course that means there is going to be a lot of button mashing. You clearly could tell when someone is button mashing and when someone know what they are doing. What I recommend doing before going online (if you do plan on going online) pick your, what I call "A" team. Pick three people who you plan on becoming really good with, and do not change it up. I feel it is better to play with three people all the time, then try use everyone and not have a specific character for you. Here is a video review for MVC


Now Mortal Kombat is an amazing game as well! I don't however have this game, but I could easily see myself getting this game simply because of the fatalities. I have always liked Mortal Kombat I have just never been quite good at the game. I am not going to lie, I like the easy controller of MVC, because all it is light, medium and hard buttons. It is a different story for MK, each character as different set of button controls. You may be good with Scorpion, but you will have no idea how to use Sub-Zero. One would say that people love that aspect of the game because it widens the gap of people who know how to play and people who don't, meaning there is a lot more skill in a game like MK. From what I remember, each character has about 4 fatalities and one babalitie (means you can turn an enemy into a baby). There is more of a story-line in MK as well, understanding where the character comes from, makes the story that much better. In MVC the story was very vague. Two groups from different universe's collide for and ultimate battle......that the story. Another video review for Mortal Kombat

Well thats it guys, let me know what you think! Which one do you like more?

Infamous 2

If you haven't played the first one you're not really missing out as far as the story is concerned. The gaming engine for the game seems to be updated greatly since the first one as well. You still play the character from the first game (Cole) who has the ability to control electricity. However this time it is set in a New Orleans based city. To strengthen his abilities, he needs to find the Ray Sphere which is believed to have started everything and given everyone their abilities (or their problem).The main problem with the first game however is that it was very repetitive and because of that it made the game boring. However Infamous 2 developers announced that it will not be no where near as repetitive as the first one.

 Regardless this game looks pretty good. A open world environment with the power to control electricity. I'd be zappin' everyone for whatever reason I want. One thing that is really cool to point out is that there is a good and bad way to finish the game. Based off your actions it determines what side you end up joining, it also changes the way you look.  From what I understand it also depends on what future abilities you may or may not learn (fire or ice). I have actually got a chance to play the demo at Bestbuy in the video game department on the PS3. With all the freedom that Cole gets to have, I can tell this game is going to have a high replay value( if you do all the side-quests). Here is a link to see a video of Infamous 2:

L.A Noire

When i first heard about this game, i was a little skeptical at first, reason being, even though it is a Rockstar (people who made G.T.A 3 and 4) game, i was not really into that detective/1940's type game. Though as it got closer to release i said to myself, "oh i try it anyway".  One if the greatest I ever decided to pick up!This game apparently had over 500 actors in this game and im not talking about voice actor, the game has this new engine to pick up every pick of facial recognition. You will actually notice a lot of actors in this game, for example if you ever watched the TV series "heroes" the cop that could read mind, he is in this game as a suspect for his wife dying.

Your name is Cole Phelps and you are a veteran from Vietnam who won the sliver star and you have come back  to continue your work as a cop in L.A. Now this is not like any other G.T.A game where you can do whatever you want. YOU ARE A GOOD COP! Meaning you cant run over people (you can but it would hurt your case rating) or gun out your gun and shoot someone for no reason. The only time you are allowed you gun is your are chasing a suspect or they started shooting you first. When you first start the game you are only a patrol cop and you raise up in the ranks by performing well on your cases. The ranks are Patrol Cop, Traffic Detective, Homicide Detective, Vice Detective and last is Arsen Detective. What is really cool about L.A Noire is everything is based off you. For example, a crime seen with a naked female dead body ( real case) you have to search around th crime scene to find any relevant evidence that can help you in the case. If you miss the murder weapon, or could not find that one piece of evidence that can tie that person to the scene. You might be sending the wrong person to jail, you may asking the wrong questions. ultimately messing up the whole case in general.

When you are interrogating someone in L.A Noire is can sometimes be easy (based on the evidence you have) or can be extreme difficult. Like i said earlier, there are over 500 actors in this game. Every actors was had about 6 cameras surrounding their whole head and face to get every piece of emotion they displaced. For example, you asked a suspect where we was act last night and he gives you a response. You ave to figure out if he is lying to you are not. Even the slightest thing can give him away, if he looks left every time he answers you, if he can't look at you in the eyes, anything can give him away. This is all based off you, they give you three choices to figure out if they are lying to you not. Truth of course-meaning they are telling you the truth, Doubt, meaning you know they are lying, but you don't have the evidence. Lying th last choice, but when you accused them of lying you ALWAYS have to back it up with evidence.

I recommend anyone this who likes Law and Order + Grand Theft Auto games, because this is exactly what kind of game this is. I will say this, the ending really pissed me off...lol

I soon realized i could not put HD video on our site, so here is a link of a video so you guys can have a beter quality vids. Thanks for reading!!
