RPG games are definitely a game mode which is currently taking a huge market share in the gaming industry - games such as Assassin’s Creed and Mass Effect are among the most preferred titles when it comes to PS3 or Xbox gaming. But a new title seems to be catching my attention far more strongly than any other RPG game out there simply because it has a storyline which I cannot simply overlook. ’Space Marine'is a game developed by GAMES WORKSHOP and incorporates the extensive and fascinating universe of Warhammer 40k - a science fiction world which consists of a constant war between races where mankind needs to stand strong, in the name of the Human Emperor.

As a keen World of Warcraft player, and an aficionado of all kinds of other games, I often find it hard to try to get my life organised. It seems so straightforward to spend so much of my time playing games - either online through MMORPGs like World of Warcraft, or more recently through other games. Lately I’ve been spending a lot of time going through the campaign on Empire: Total War, another classic strategy game from the Creative Assembly. It takes you through the 18th Century colonial expansion period - which has meant all sorts of fun! I’m just waiting now for TCA to make a 21st Century game - so you might have something like: Red Diesel Bradford Total War coming your way…

Improbable I know, but I’m quite keen on the idea of how we might create a game that dramatises the many challenges presented by modern life. So it could be all about the perils of getting from A to B in double quick time when you’re trying to get to your temp job, all played out on a strategic map… ridiculous? I don’t know. Look at the huge success of The Sims, for example, which is essentially a game in which you manipulate the lives of perfectly ordinary middle class people who are probably quite a lot like the people actually playing the game.

In all seriousness, what I’m most attracted to are games which explore an element of the historic. So Empire is a great example - you play pitched land and naval battles between the great empires (European and otherwise) of the eighteenth century. I’m about 100 hours in and it’s clearly pretty addictive. Check it out! And don’t forget that by staying in and playing games all the time, you can save on petrol money…at least, sometimes you can!

Review - King Arthur: Fallen Champions : In the gaming world it…

In the gaming world it is very difficult to produce a game that meets the expectations of every gamer on the planet but many would agree you can surely try. One of the most popular games these days is undoubtedly the King Arthur: Fallen Champions. It is a game that makes everyone craving to play it. King Arthur: Fallen Champions is definitely a game that has more than what you have asked for.

I was having an online chat with a gaming friend of mine recently and we both agreed on the following concerning this new game.

It has great interface that many have grown accustomed to as it is similar to World of Warcraft and other similar games.

It is made with some of the best graphics around and players will more than likely have an amazing time while playing it, but it does not stop there.

It is different from the first King Arthur and its successors as Fallen Champions was made without a strategic layer and had been given a more personal feeling. The war and conquering of the England is in the shadows as you stroll through the story with three heroes each after its own missions.

You will play brave Arthurian knight named Sir Lionel and Sidhe witch known as Lady Corrigan. You will also follow the story of the Pictish shaman called Drest making this very exciting game even more interesting as you play and create your own adventures.

The way the story is told is effective and the text aids in making the whole experience and the quest through the game a unique experience.

There probably should have been choices of dialogue that is more intricate and that come with serious consequences. This may have helped to boost the game and its reply value as a whole.
