Up coming games im looking forward to.

The year 2011 the year that for me has and is going to be incredible for gamers so I thought I would share my thoughts on the games already released and some upcoming titles of 2011. So far this year we have already had the release of Dead Space 2, Portal 2, LA Noire, Brink, Killzone 3, Little Big Planet 2 and soo many more.

But it doesn't end there ohh no its only just started in the next few days we have some huge titles due for release Infamous 2 is out today, Infamous was an amazing game for the PS3 and I cant wait to get my hands on this game, with new features such as new ice powers and a tesla coil weapon this game is looking very promising. 

If that's not enough on June 14th Duke Nukem Forever is due for release that's right after sooooo many years of waiting were finally going to get this game finally, I'm really excited about this game the only 1 thing that worries me is that because the game has had so much hype and such a long wait will it live up to expectations I certainly hope so. 

Out of all the games this year that have already been released and are going to be Duke Nukem is at number 2 on my list of game this year, WHAT I hear you ask what can possibly beat this game that's been 13 years in the making well let me tell you . . . Uncharted 3! As you all know I rate uncharted 1 and 2 as the best games I've ever played so the 3rd should be amazing, judging by the jump the game make from the first to the second in terms of game play and graphics the next jump to the third should blow our minds.

On September 6th Resistance 3 is due for release into our gaming hands which is another date I'm looking forward to I'm a big fan of the previous 2 resistance games and from what it looks like this new game shares the best bits from the two which in my opinion will make a great game.

Batman Arkham City is also taking a spot in my gaming shelf's interests out in October this game Carry's on from the previous batman game Arkham Asylum I personally thought the first game was great and the only one thing missing was more space to explore, well this new game has that covered and we will now have an entire city to explore. This game is set to have a huge array of bad guys and characters which is what makes batman so great.

Prototype is a game I'm still yet to play but from what Ive seen and heard its a game I'm definitely going to play through sooner than later especially when the sequel Prototype 2 is set for release in 2012 that gives me around 8 months lol plenty of time :)

Ive never really been a Call Of Duty fan the early games were good for the PS2 but the latest releases have never really grabbed me I played the first Modern Warfare and the story was pretty good but I never really cared much for the multi player, as for Black Ops I own the game but I'm still yet to play the game Ive just got way to many games to do at the moment and it doesn't seem to be top priority at the moment, having said that the new Modern Warfare 3 is set for release in November so anyone who loves the Call Of Duty series get ready for then.

Talking of First Person shooters Battlefield 3 will be coming out in October now as I said before I'm not a major fan of Call Of duty but the Battlefield series has had me playing quite a bit lately so I'm more interested in what the new Battlefield 3 has to offer, now judging by the trailers this game looks pretty epic so I'm thinking a pre-order of this is on the cards.

There is plenty of other games due for release in 2011 but the ones mentioned above are the games I'm most looking forward to. As a gamer 2011 is going great and looking at whats to come its one of the most promising gaming year so far. Hope everyone is enjoying the year as much as me happy gaming :)

My New Phone and Angry Birds

I came to the end of a very very long contract 2 weeks ago with a very cruddy phone so I was very excited to finally have a smart phone in my pocket. I was looking at every smart phone on the market for a number of months before settling on one phone I looked at plenty of different phones and makes from the PlayStation phone to the obvious I Phone 4 which was the one I was going for until I saw the HTC Desire HD I had the two phone side by side and the HTC just took it for me better camera better contract its just a all round better phone and cost less which was even better :).

The great thing with this phone is that I now have a HD camera and video camera which means I can now film and picture my own images this gives me more freedom about the images on Top Spec Gaming. As well as that I now have the ability to post on the move so I don't need to be sat at my laptop to do a post or update which means I can put content up more often.

And finally the best thing is that I don't have to hide my phone when in public :) Now seen as Top Spec Gaming is about video games 'hence the name' I guess I should put a little about the games that are available for these smart phones and what better way to start than with Angry Birds, one of the most popular games for smart phones at the moment has to be angry birds and now that I
have this game too a can see why. 

The game is very simple and is great for pick up and play game play, its also incredibly addictive which is another reason for the popularity of the game. I was very happy to see that on my phone I could get angry birds for free another bonus with the phone :). So whats Angry Birds all about? Well to explain as simply as I can, Pigs have stolen the birds eggs and are the birds going to put up with that NO so what do they do? they build a huge slingshot and hurl them self's at the pigs simple huh :) Its a classic tower destruction game were you launch projectiles at weak spots of a structure to destroy it as efficiently as possible.

The game has soo many levels and other expansions that the game never gets old or boring and will have you playing for hours. With each level comes new types of birds with different ability's and new structures to destroy, some have to be dealt with simple strength power were as others need more precision shots to weak parts. Since the release of Angry birds a number of other titles have been released 2 of which I've recently downloaded Angry Birds Seasons and Angry Birds Rio these titles are just as good as the first and just give gamers another load of different levels and scenarios to try out only increasing the life of the game :) All in all a great game and defiantly worth the download :)
