Gears Of War 3 review: This wears biggest hit? or Biggest miss?
The answer to the question is... HIT!
Story:
After many months of ridiculous anticipation for many die hard Gears fans it is finally here! Gears 3 raps the end to the Marcus Fenix era (unknown of prequel or sequel of the franchise) and ties up many of the questions we have all been waiting to hear! The game provides a more emotional attachment to the team (Cole in the stadium) which shows how much our heroes have really had to lose. The new enemy The Lambet aren't exactly hard to fight i see them as exploding locust... because that's all they really are. There are different types of Lambet; giant ones that spit Imulltion at you with a giant whip if you get to close and bigger enemy's who explode before they die. There are the occasional boss fights that are very satisfying! I can't really explain where they come from unless you want spoilers to the ending of the game, and yes Locust are still in the game! You spend the whole game looking for Adam Fenix (Marcus's father who is the key to everything) taking on little missions to get your way there. At the cost of one of our main characters (I'll let you decide who it is) which i guarantee will leave a tear in the eye of any Gears fan! The game still does leave some unanswered questions that I plead have to be answered!
Gameplay:
Not really much has changed gameplay wise other than the one or two new added weapons such as the Retro-Lancer and the fact some more familiar weapons are now a lil different (Gorgon pistol is now fully automatic and with the click of L3 whilst zooming in with the Hamerburst opens up a view of its iron sights making it more easy to use). The duck, run and cover system is still the same as well as the weapon reload system. You can now trade weapons with a team mate by zooming in at them opening a menu for what weapon of theirs you want. Objectives are now very clear by a click of R1 shows you where you objective is.
Multiplayer:
Multiplayer now seems a whole lot more addictive, whether it's the more competitive game modes or the fact that it comes down to pure skill to kill (no perks, killstreaks ect) only unlocking camos for your weapons, characters and ribbons as you progress in levels (through campaign, multiplayer and horde/beast mode)! The ten maps that come with the game are very satisfying and very quick to learn the best and quickest routes to slaughter your enemy! You can also play the campaign online with 2 to 4 people making the game a whole lot more fun!
Horde mode and Beast Mode
Horde mode returns allowing either you on your own or 2-4 friends battling 50 waves of enemies with a boss round every 10 rounds offering a new challenge! Earning money every enemy you kill to by defenses, weapons ect taking on other horde game modes out there and is defiantly a strong competitor!
Beast mode is basically the opposite instead of playing as a COG tearing Locust apart you play as the Locust tearing humans apart and is equally fun!
Overall:
Overall Gears 3 is by far the Best Gears of War out of the Trilogy. Opening it's arms to new players to the franchise and the fans who have followed it all the way through! The game will leave you with the feeling of going back to the previous releases just to play them all through again and again! With stunning scenery and an emotional connection the the story Gears of war 3 is a definite pick up for anyone(with the edition of previously in gears film to explain the previous editions to Gears)! I will be posting a complete walkthrough of the whole game on my YouTube.
Rating 9.5/10 (.5 because it seems in some cases epic games can't seem to pick up how to use the game engine as during cut-scenes graphics take a while to appear).

Smartphone Best Buy
Who wants a smartphone? It is hard to choose which is value for money, so here are my top 3 smartphones money can buy.
3rd Place : We have the Blackberry curve 8520 from RIM. With the 320X240 colour display, photos are not as clear as i would of hoped but it is good enough for casual web browsing and social networking. The main feature that the blackberry has offered is the touch sensitive track pad. In my opinion the track pad is better than the previous Trackball because of how easy it is to use, it is quicker to scroll webpages and less noise is generated, it also looks quite smart. The phone has not got 3G connectivity or GPS, this is very disappointing. But if GPS and 3G are not important then this is a cheaper alternative than the other Blackberries on the market. If GPS and 3G is important to you, i suggest taking a look at the Blackberry curve 8530. It is the same appearance as the 8520 but with a little more features. The blackberry 8520 has a 2.0 MP camera with 5X digital zoom which is ok but not that useful if you take a lot of photos. The phone has got WiFi, this is good as the phone has no 3G connectivity. The phone comes with 256MB of storage but this can be upgraded.
Overall i think that this phone is based more around the consumer market than the business, so if you want a cheap £99 (Best Price) and reliable phone this is the one, but if you require a phone more features, The Blackberry 8530 is the one for you.
2nd Place : We have the Samsung Galaxy S. The phone has Google's operating system Android. It has a 1 GHz processor along with 8-16 GB internal flash storage. The Galaxy's 5.0 MP camera is great but with no led flash the quality is downgraded in low light environments. There is also an Fm radio built right into the phone, and if you have a Samsung TV then you can use this phone as a remote. The screen is a super 4.0 inch AMOLED display which has a 480X800 screen resolution. The screen is does not reflect light as much as the other phones, this is great because you can actually use this phone outdoors. Despite the big display the phone feels sturdy in your hands as well as keeping it portable. The phones battery life is poor and needs charging quite frequently.
Overall i think that this phone is a brilliant smartphone and is not that pricey (depending on pay as you go or pay monthly). If you want a mid-range smartphone then this is the phone for you. However, if you have a bigger budget then i would read on...

Overall i think that the pricey tag of £510 (Best Price) is great for the device you get. For those that are on a big budget the iPhone 4 is the one for you. If you don't have much money to spend i suggest that you start saving up because you are missing out on a truly great phone. For those that already own a iPhone im sure you are excited about the new software release comming soon for IOS devices.

Dead Island Review!!
Hi everyone!
Harry here, and today I bring you my verdict on Dead Island, will it live up to the high expectations most of us had for this game?
After being buzzed up by the amazing trailers Dead Island released I couldn't wait to play it, and within an hour i was pretty much bored, slaying zombies is fun for a while but can becoming boring after a while.You a presented with the choice of four characters who all come with their own special ability ect Guns... and a bio! The game does have a paper thin story line that only seems to pick up near the end of the game after completing many quests before actually being able to carry on with the main story/objective.
The game does seem like they did steal a few ideas from Dead Rising 2 such as the variable weapon customization but adds to the fun! Co-op also was very fun to play as well and I do admit i had fun ravaging zombies with and electric axe with a friend! Be warned you will need cash for everything especially with a weapon but luckily enough money isn't hard to obtain. I did find the game very, very boring at first but it can be alot of fun with a friend! Subscribe on my Youtube for gameplay videos of this game!
Rating: 7.8

Black Ops: Rezurrection map pack Review:
So here it is guys the new all Zombie map pack review!
So first we start with the all new zombie epic Moon. After spending a whole night playing on the map me and my bestfriend discovered our perfect tactic to survive... Moon had some amazing new additions to the zombie saga, such as the launch pads for a quick escape in the "Dome" although this is not advisable without Juggernog or no gravity when the excavator is switched on (You can stop the excavation of the dome or many parts of the level in the starting room although gravity makes the map a lot more harder). We epically enjoyed the starting area in which you have to survive Area 51 (Online map in the previous map pack Hanger 18) where you will find the Pack-a-Punch machine and either Juggernog or Speedcola but changes every time you teleport there (Teleport found by new perk Mule Kick) Mule Kick being the new perk allows you to wield 3 weapons at an expense of 4000 points! With Mule Kick weapon drops will randomly appear with a throw of the new Tactical grenade the Q.E.D which we found a great use but not as much fun as the previously seen Gersh Device in Ascension that was a great help on Moon! The Wave gun is also a great addition to the map and makes Zombie killing a whole lot fun just to see them explode! The gun also splits into two duel wield weapons the Zap Guns or as we called them the mini WunderWaffes! (Although it doesnt kill more than 2) There are a few flaws with the map such as the annoying astronauts (who we named Neil Armstrongs) who take the name of one of your friends from your friends list, but also get in the way allot of the time and is very annoying when they grab you and steal your perk teleporting you somewhere different in the map as it stole my Mule Kick :( . The Nova six crawlers make a return but are more annoying than ever before, teleporting or skipping right in the middle of your path!
The Easter egg has now been completed and is available to watch on YouTube and is an amazing end to the Zombie story! Rating: 9/10
Natch Der Untoten:
Nothing has really changed with this Zombie map other than the addition of the Black Ops Random weapon box and The Thundergun and the Symbol Monkey the World at War weapons off the wall also seem to have been "refurbished" along with the map and to me by far is the most difficult and annoying map with its no perks and annoying structure!
Rating 6.5/10
Vurruckt
Same as Natch der Untoten nothing has really changed with the map other than it and its weapons have been refurbished. Other than having perk machines unlike Natch der Untoten the map now includes the addition of the Winters Howl which is a great use to get out of tight situations.
Rating:8/10
(No picture was available of the Black Ops version)
Shi No Numa
Same again nothing has changed except that it's been completely refurbished but is still annoying with the random perk locations in different huts and the very annoying swamp!
Rating: 8/10
Der Riese
Same again nothing has changed with the layout other than the Black ops weapons and Black ops graphics. The Hell hound god mode has now been patched along with many other glitches in the game! This to me is still my faviourate zombie map other than Ascension and is very fun to play!
Rating: 9/10
Hope you enjoyed the review It's going to be a while till the next zombie map (If there is one)
