Dead space


I Recently bought and finished the PS3 game dead space, now I'm not one for being scared easily but this game has to be the scariest game Ive ever played cant count the amount of times i jumped or paused the game coz i was that jumped, not only was this game very scary but everything else worked perfectly the sound was great and was one of the things that made this game so scary it defiantly played with your mind. the other great thing was the graphics in particular the dark spots the darker areas in this game played on your mind so much and most of the time there wasn't anything there but made you think there was, very clever indeed.


You play a guy called Isaac Clarke who is a engineer in the year 2508, a future that is very different to what we know now, earth is a baron land where humans have finally uses up all the natural resources on our planet and reduced it to nothing so rather than fixing the problem we have come up with a way of gutting other planets for there resources they call it planet cracking which pretty much sums it up. the whole reason this has started is one of the planet cracker ships has lost communications and Isaac and his team are there to find out whats happened, pretty soon into the game you find out that something has gone very wrong and you will be going to hell and back to survive this ordeal trust me you never get a break with this game the word survival doesn't even cut it.


This game also includes 49 trophies/ achievements to collect there is a link to the list below:

Medal Of Honour

The New Medal Of honour hit the shops on the 15th this month and what a game it is!


Ive never been much of a fan of the new modern warfare games i much prefer the older call of duty's and so on, Ive played the new medal of honour and so far its a very well made game the graphics are amazing the sound is great and the game play is responsive and easy to use. As do most games now a days it comes with its own trophies(PS3) and achievements (XBOX360) here's the list if any1 is interested :) 
i have yet to really get into this game but from the first hour or so it seems a really well made game.

Total Top Spec Gaming Score 6.3 / 10 


Medal of honour: Frontline 
 
As well as this new game you also get one of my favourite old time classics medal of honour Frontline for FREE, now this is only available for the PS3 version probably so they have the edge when it comes to sales. the game takes place in World War II were you play as Lieutenant James Patterson majority of the time you play alone but in some missions you do have a few allies to 'help'. the very first mission is where this game grabs you and will have you playing till the very end great game :) The graphics have improved slightly but it still keeps the same look as for the sound and game play I'm happy to report they haven't been touched :) this game is really amazing and which ever way you want to play it PS2 version or PS3 a really recommend you play this game.


 This game also has trophies which i love just adds to the greatness ill pop a list here too if any ones interested

PS3Trophies

So for my second post i want to tell you about a website that Ive been using for a while now.


This website is great it is split up into 2 sections the first has news and new releases in games and trophies as well as a trophy checklist, you can enable all the games you own and check of each of the trophies you have giving you a great view of how much you have done on each game.


The really great thing about this is that on each game there is a full list of what the trophies are and what you have to do to get them, if you were really stuck on one or just need a bit of help you can click guide at the top and it brings up a guide for each trophy and if needed a video. there are other things on this bit like games collections favorite trophies and so on. 


The other part of this website is the forum this is were all the members of the site can come and post questions, announcements, submit new games/ trophies, join clubs, have general conversations, ask tec questions, and generally chat about gaming and other interests. so if there is a brand new game and the guides are not up yet you can ask in here or if your having problems setting something up there is always some 1 to help you the community at PS3T is great all friendly and happy to help :)


The final thing that this site includes is social groups and is were i started blogging sort of, you can join groups or make one for your self at first i joined a few but noticed there was no group for retro gaming or old school gaming which is one of my favourite genres so i decided to create on at first i had no idea what to right or include but as time went on the group expanded and became pretty popular.


So i hope you all go and check out this site as if it wasn't for it i probably wouldn't have started this blog, its free to join and doesn't take long and if your there don't forget to join retro gaming thanks everyone see you in the next post laters :)
