Halo 4 Multiplayer

We all know one of the biggest reasons behind Halo's success is the highly entertaining and competitive multiplayer component which has been termed War Games in Halo 4. Today we shall be taking a look at some of the cool things that 343 Industries have incorporated into the War Games that makes Halo 4 that much more worth playing.

Assassinations

The Assassinations are back but with a brand new flair. Assassinations are more satisfying and brutal than ever. There are a variety of ways in which these melee executions take place, for example Spartans can tackle an enemy to the ground before finishing him off with a knife. The variety

Halo 4 Gameplay Details

Spartan Ops is basically a replacement of the Firefight in the previous iterations. Spartan Ops is a four-player co-op mode but unlike Firefight where you basically have to survive wave after wave of enemies, it revolves around a few set of missions.

Although it is a co-op mode you can chose to play alone if you like. Another advantage is that Spartan Ops is supported by Halo 4's matchmaking system so you don’t necessarily have to have friends to play it, like in the case with Halo 3: ODST's Firefight mode.

343 Industries plans on releasing content for the Spartan Ops on a weekly basis. The updates will contain five co-op missions that can be played by

Halo 4 Details

In an exclusive interview with Game Centre, Frank O'Connor (Franchise Developer at 343 Industries) gave out some pretty great details on what to expect from the upcoming Halo 4.

According to Frank, Halo 4 will be epic and this episode will have the biggest additions compared to all previous Halo games. This in essence means more abilities, weapons, vehicles and enemies.

Speaking of enemies, unlike the past iterations where existing Covenant species were modified to provide extra challenge, this time around they are building new and unique enemies never before seen in the franchise. These enemies of course will come with their

The first ever Halo 4 gampelay was shown at the Microsoft press conference at E3. All diehard fans of the franchise were a bit on edge about the upcoming game considering the fact that a completely new company was developing Halo 4. The return of Master Chief himself did little to calm them down.

I remember watching a random late night talk show in which one of the hosts exclaimed "Why should we be excited about Halo 4 when strangers are making the game?". The fact that Bungie Studios split from Microsoft and the game was passed over to 343 Industries was not very well received by fans worldwide. A good analogy would be as if Santa Monica Studios had given the rights to God of War to an internal studio of Sony. It just wouldn't feel right.

Fortunately though, the gameplay demo shown by 343 Industries at E3 blew away these concerns, wowed the crowd and got the fans excited yet again for a new Halo. If you missed the demo check it out in the following link:

Info on The Last of Us

Very few people in the gaming community, if at all, have little or no idea about Naughty Dog, the creators of the Uncharted series. All the Uncharted games are cinematic masterpieces with amazing replay potential. Everything was spot on with those games and each successive installment outshined its predecessor by leaps and bounds.

That is exactly why everyone was so excited when Naughty Dog mentioned their new IP some time back; a post-apocalyptic survival game going by the name "The Last of Us." We had been hearing a lot about how it was going to be different from the Uncharted series in the fact that it will be more serious and darker. Finally this E3 we

Spec Ops: The Line - Online Multiplayer Details

Today we will be taking a look at the multiplayer aspect of Spec Ops: The Line. Nowadays almost all games have to have some sort of multiplayer especially if it is a first person or third person shooter.

Mutliplayer components these days are mainly used to increase the value of the game itself. They not only increase the allure of the games but also significantly increase the length of the game. Sadly, sometimes they are just sloppily made and do nothing more than frustrate players. I will just present you with my opinion of the multiplayer and whether it is good or not, you can be the judge of that.

First of all, they have

New Shooter, Spec Ops: The Line

I don't know about you guys but, I had no idea that that 2K was coming out with a new Spec Ops game until I actually saw the game demo at E3. The new game is titled Spec Ops: The Line which has been officially dated to be released on the 26th of June, 2012.

The main story takes place in the carcass of the once flourishing Dubai, now just a shell of its formal glory due to massive sandstorms that left it in tatters. The lead character is going to be Captain Walker whose mission is to rescue John Konrad, a well-respected Colonel of the US Army.

John Konrad and his team went MIA during their last mission which was to help any remaining civilians escape Dubai. Well

Black Ops 2: Zombies!

All right, now let take a look into Zombies! Treyarch has officially confirmed that Zombies will make a comeback and it is going to be bigger and better than ever.

First of all, Zombies will have more game modes aside from the standard round modes that we have seen in World at War and Black Ops. There also going to be specific tasks and objectives to complete in these levels this time around.

Speaking of levels, this is one area where Zombies is getting a major overhaul. They are creating whole new worlds for zombies, massive ones. According to Mark, the whole Treyarch team has put a lot of effort and imagination into Zombies

Alright! I know why you all are here so let's dive straight into it!

As always, Treyarch is really tight lipped about revealing anything about the multiplayer at this moment. They always like to tease people with the official multiplayer trailer which sadly for us, is not out yet. But, in an interview with Machinima, Mark Lamia the Studio Head at Treyarch mentioned some interesting details.

Mark mentioned that they are really building Black Ops 2 Multiplayer from the ground up. They do not plan on adding to the existing framework of Black Ops but, intend to redefine it. He mentioned that players can expect to see them to "push the boundaries of the multiplayer
